Imperial College London → Meta · Research Scientist, FAIR
Belgian researcher who did his computer science PhD at Imperial College London with Yves-Alexandre de Montjoye, on what large language models memorize from training data: membership inference, copyright traps and privacy audits. He first trained in mechanical engineering and worked as a data scientist.
