About me

Hello! I am Killian Bakong, a PhD student in computer science in the Argo team at Inria Paris. I am currently working under the supervision of Laurent Massoulié, with the strong support of Edouard Oyallon.

Prior to starting my PhD, I obtained the master's degree MVA (Mathématiques, Vision, Apprentissage) from ENS Paris-Saclay, as well as an engineering degree from École Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées.

Research

My research focuses on learning dynamics and training efficiency in deep learning. I combine theoretical modeling and experiments to better understand the role of stochasticity, including noisy gradients and approximate computations and how these can be leveraged in large-scale or distributed settings.
