About

I am a research scientist (Starting Faculty Position) in the Biovision team ➚ of Centre Inria d'Université Côte d'Azur. My ongoing research concerns tools and algorithms for interactive and multimedia storytelling, notably for 3D immersive environments and film, with projects focusing on:

  • designing accessible multimedia technologies for people with low vision,
  • study and modelling of user attention and behavior in immersive 3D environments,
  • content generation and assisted creativity for extended reality, and
  • methods for the automated analysis of visual media, notably film narrative.

I defended my thesis on Cinematic Discourse for Interactive 3D Storytelling ➚ in October, 2016.
