New paper on the generalization of Flow Matching arxiv.org/abs/2506.03719 🤯 Why does flow matching generalize? Did you know that the flow matching target you're trying to learn **can only generate training points**? with @Qu3ntinB, Anne Gagneux & Rémi Emonet 👇👇👇

I wrote a summary of the main ingredients of the neat proof by Hugo Lavenant that diffusion models do not generally define optimal transport. github.com/mathematical-tour…

I have several internship/PhD positions on Graph ML available with ERC MALAGA 🤓 See details here: nkeriven.github.io/malaga/ Don't hesitate to contact me! (same if you are interested in a post-doc related to graph ML)
I'm thrilled to announce that my #ERCStG project has been accepted 🤓 **MALAGA: Reinventing the Theory of Machine Learning on Large Graphs** Many job openings coming up, see nkeriven.github.io/malaga for updates! Thank you @ERC_Research and all my collaborators past and future

How fast is gradient descent, *for real*? Some (partial) answers in this new blog post on scaling laws for optimization. francisbach.com/scaling-laws…

The story of my (academic) life ! Started on multi-image super-resolution, now working on the theoretical side of inverse problems. BTW we have a paper with @RemiGribonval and @vaiter on the choice of optimal "atoms" arxiv.org/abs/2112.03540
In the first applications lecture of the semester, we build a general framework for generating the real sparks of AGI: linear inverse problems. argmin.net/p/inverse-problem…

We just finished a very productive benchopt sprint, gathering 35 participants over 3 days, hosted at @Owkin_Science, Google AI Hub & SCAI @Sorbonne_Univ. We merged 11 PRs, updated 9 benchmarks, and developed 7 new ones. Here are some key highlights! notes.inria.fr/s/XDBWzL8ID

Now availaible in Information and Inference academic.oup.com/imaiai/arti… Very proud of this work with @vaiter and @RemiGribonval !
We uploaded our new preprint "A theory of optimal convex regularization for low-dimensional recovery", with @RemiGribonval, @vaiter hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal… We ask ourselves what is the "best" way to regularize inverse problems given a low dimensional model (e.g. sparse)? 1/3

🏜️ New preprint with @vaiter and @BouretReynaud 🏜️ arxiv.org/abs/2405.18828 We propose a Spiking Neural Network which provably learns a classification task by producing neuronal assemblies, whose neurons activity is modeled by Hawkes processes. 1/3
