Clément Bonet

I am an associate professor at Ecole Polytechnique. My researchs lie at the interface of Optimal Transport, Optimization, Computational Statistics and Deep Learning.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at ENSAE/CREST, working with Anna Korba on Wasserstein Gradient Flows. I defended my PhD in November 2023 and I was supervised by François Septier, Nicolas Courty and Lucas Drumetz. Before that, I graduated from Telecom Paris and from the MVA ("Mathématiques, Vision, Apprentissage") of Ecole Normale Superieure Paris-Saclay. For more informations, you can find my resume here.
