About Me
Hi, I’m Clément Romac. After graduating in Computer Science engineering from Ingesup with a Data Science specialisation, while part-time working on Automated Machine Learning in a startup called Weenove, I obtained a MSc. in theoretical Computer Science at the University of Bordeaux (France). Shortly after, I joined the FLOWERS team at Inria Bordeaux as a Research Engineer working on Automatic Curriculum Learning for Deep RL and Automated scientific discovery in complex systems (e.g. self-organizing).
I’m now a Research Scientist at Hugging Face and a second-year PhD student jointly supervised by Pierre-Yves Oudeyer (FLOWERS, Inria) and Thomas Wolf (Hugging Face) studying how autonomous Deep RL agents can leverage Large Language Models. I am also co-animating the Machine Learning Meetup group of Bordeaux.
Research Interests
- Reinforcement Learning: Open-ended Learning, Automatic Curriculum Learning, Intrinsic Motivation
- Large Language Models: Grounding, NLG as decision-making
