Hi, I'm Lucas, a PhD candidate in Computer Science at EPFL. My research interests revolve around machine learning and its applications to recommender systems.

My thesis is about learning preferences from comparisons. I'm studying this problem from a statistical and algorithmic perspective. Since 2016, my work is supported by a Google PhD fellowship.

  1. May 2018, my paper has been accepted at KDD.
  2. April 2018, I defended my thesis!
