Hi!
My name is Soufiane Belharbi. I am a post-doc at LIVIA Lab., ÉTS, Montreal in collaboration with McCaffrey Lab. / GCRC McGill. I am working with Eric Granger, Ismail Ben Ayed, and Luke McCaffrey on training neural networks with weak supervision.

Phd
I completed my PhD in computer science at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées de Rouen Normandie (INSA Rouen Normandie) in LITIS lab, Apprentissage (Learning) team (Oct. 2014-Jul.2018). I was supervised by Prof. Sébastien Adam (director), Clément Chatelain, and Romain Hérault. During my PhD, I conducted research on the regularization of neural networks through representation learning with particular focus on learning scenarios where only few training samples are available.
