My name is Diarra. I am a PhD student at Laval University under the supervision of Pascal Germain. The subject of my thesis is deriving theoretical guarantees for deep learning models, with a focus on deep generative models. In my work, I use tools from statistical learning theory, mainly PAC-Bayesian theory.

My research interests include:

• Statistical Learning Theory
• Deep Generative Models
• Variational Inference

I am very proud to be one of the winners of the RBC Borealis Fellowship 2023/2024.

I am spending the month of February 2024 as a visiting researcher at UCL where I am hosted by Omar Rivasplata.
