Bio (IEEE style)
Edouard Duchesnay is a research director and affiliated Professor of Machine Learning at Paris-Saclay University, France. He leads the GAIA Laboratory at NeuroSpin, CEA, which is dedicated to brain imaging and data science. Since 2003, Duchesnay has been developing machine learning models to identify neural signatures predictive of clinical trajectories in psychiatric disorders. He explored dimension reduction and regularization strategies to address the challenges posed by high-dimensional neuroimaging data. In 2019, he was awarded a chair in Artificial Intelligence to advance deep transfer learning algorithms, aiming to bridge the gap between large heterogeneous datasets and smaller homogeneous ones. He received his PhD in signal and image processing (2001) and a Master’s in Signal/Image Processing (1998) from Rennes 1 University, France. In 1997, he obtained a master’s degree in software engineering from École Pour l’Informatique et les Techniques Avancées (France).
