I received my B.Sc in Physical Engineering in 1994, at the Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. After a M.Sc.A in Electrical Engineering (Design of a signature verification system) and some courses in philosophy at the University of Montreal, I made my Ph.D in Computer Science at the University of Neuchatel, under the supervision of Jacques Savoy (Information Retrieval and logic) (1996-2000). Right after obtaining my Ph.D, I went to the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Communication System Department, to develop new techniques for watermarking and multimedia data copyright protection, in collaboration with my old friend Arnaud Robert and Prof. Martin Hasler. Now I just started to work as a R&D engineer at MediaSec Technologies, a leading company in watermarking technologies.
