Short info

My work focuses on understanding neural networks decisions in geosciences using explainable AI techniques. I'm currently focusing on figuring out whether neural networks can make physically grounded decision for heavy rainfall predictions.
Research

Interactive map for european rainfall biases

Teaching

I teach and develop courses and workshops regarging technical tools for geoscientific data.

2026 - BCCR Training Programme in Machine Learning

2025 - GFI evening course: machine learning for geosciences

2020-2024 - Python for geosciences
