Gilles Puy

Research scientist at valeo.ai

I am a senior research scientist at valeo.ai working on perception for assisted and autonomous driving. I am also part of the astra-vision team at Inria.

My main research topics are about 3D perception and annotation efficient learning.

Before joining valeo.ai, I was a researcher at Technicolor/Interdigital R&I (2016-2019), and a postdoc at Inria (2014-2016). I obtained my PhD from EPFL in 2014. I obtained my M.Sc. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from EPFL and the Engineering Diploma from Supélec in 2009.
