Here are a few blog posts about different topics of interest I encountered throughout my research journey.

POLICEd RL
While safe RL typically does not provide hard safety guarantees, I have worked on addressing this issue with POLICEd RL to provably enforce hard constraint with a black-box environment....

Introduction to Diffusion Models
Diffusion models have reached state-of-the-art performance in image and video generation. To better understand these models, I will show you how to code one in 100 lines of Python...

Time Optimal Linear Control
During my PhD I came across the problem of determining the minimal time for a linear system to reach a state. This is problem is not as simple as it appears...

Understanding resilience
I developped resilience theory during my PhD to study how autonomous systems can handle a partial loss of control authority over their actuators...
