Biography
I am a PhD student (CIFRE) at Inria Lille, under the supervision of Yann Blanco, Wilfrid Perruquetti, Denis Efimov and Odalric-Ambrym Maillard.
My research focuses on applying Safe Reinforcement Learning to Behavioural Planning in Autonomous Driving.
Driving is a social game: interactions between drivers introduce a coupling between the decisions of the ego-vehicle and the dynamics of the nearby traffic. They are difficult to model manually and justify the need to learn from data. But to deploy a learning-based system in such a critical setting, a notion of risk must be considered explicitly and controlled.
