About Me
Life Purpose:
With a profound understanding of applied sciences, physics, mathematics, and (generative) AI, I am committed to deciphering the complexities of intricate geophysical data. My mission is to forge strategic partnerships across various disciplines, enabling a comprehensive understanding of natural and industrial processes, and delivering actionable insights to clients
Vision and Impact:
Innovation in the energy sector exemplifies human ingenuity and collective effort. It involves creating smarter, more eco-responsible extraction methods, requiring multi-energy development globally, aiming to gradually replace conventional fuels, and using AI-assisted processes to optimize production and storage. My current work is reshaping the pre-industrialization era, fostering a sustainable ecosystem where humanity is responsible for both health and technological advancement.

• Biodiversity Preservation:
- Utilized the Microsoft PyTorch-Wildlife collaborative framework for automated biodiversity labeling.
- Conducted database correction and validation with the expertise of specialist ecologists.
- Performed extraction, data augmentation, and classification of animal images using YOLOv8-cls
Contributed to the preservation and census of animal species near TotalEnergies assets.
• Geological Facies Prediction: Applied Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDT) models to predict geological facies using 3D seismic cubes. Evaluated I/O performance across different file systems.
• Seismic Data Analysis/Processing: Enhanced the internal DIVA seismic toolbox for SEG-Y/SEP data analysis and processing on Pangea-3/4 supercomputers.
• Forecasting flooding for TotalEnergies' Papua LNG project using satellite, AI and in-situ data - Utilized the Microsoft PyTorch-Wildlife collaborative framework for automated biodiversity labeling.
