ABOUT VIRGILE FOUSSEREAU

Greetings! I\'m Virgile Foussereau, a dedicated Machine Learning and Computer Vision enthusiast with an ongoing MEng in Computer Science at UC Berkeley. Learn more about me on: https://virgile-foussereau.github.io.Key Skills and Achievements- Education: I\'m pursuing an MEng in Computer Science with a specialization in Robotics & AI at UC Berkeley, and I already hold an MS in Computer Vision & Machine Learning from Ecole Polytechnique, maintaining a stellar GPA of 3.95/4.0, ranking first in Machine Learning among 155 students-Research Excellence: As a Visiting Researcher at the CNRS-AIST Joint Robotics Laboratory in Japan, I developed an innovative 6-DOF pose estimation method that merges Deep Learning Visual Detection and Dense Depth Alignment, awaiting publication-Practical Experience: My role as an Autonomous System Engineer at Einride in Sweden involved enhancing the autonomy of the Einride Pod, the first autonomous electric truck approved for public roads by the NHTSA. I significantly improved its prediction and maneuver recognition capabilities-Projects: I thrive on challenges and have a track record of successful projects:*Indy Autonomous Challenge (IAC): Currently, I\'m part of the UC Berkeley team competing in the $1.5 million prize Indy Autonomous Challenge. I lead the development of cutting-edge perception and localization systems for fastest autonomous car in the world.*Reinforcement Learning for Cooperation Behavior: At Ecole Polytechnique, I applied Reinforcement Learning techniques to train agents to cooperate efficiently in complex environments, achieving impressive results.*PyTorch NeRF: I extended the Tiny NeRF model using PyTorch, significantly boosting training speed while maintaining performance.*LiDAR-based Pedestrian Recognition: I developed a compound-scaled object detection model to improve pedestrian recognition and prediction in LiDAR point clouds.Learn more about my projects on https://virgile-foussereau.github.ioCall to Action:I\'m looking for full-time roles in Machine Learning, Computer Vision Engineer or Autonomous Driving.
