Stéphane obtained his Ph.D. in Computer Science (UBO/LiSyC, France) on the multi-agent modeling and simulation of complex systems. He conceived and developed a society of agent-models to help domain experts in the design, building, execution, and analysis of complex computational models. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the VENLab (Brown U.) with Pr. William H. Warren on the behavioral modeling of human locomotion and the self-organization of collective dynamics in crowds. He finally joined Serre's lab to couple the cognitively grounded locomotion model of the VENLab to the biological valid vision model of Serre's lab. Stéphane's goal is to build human-inspired perception-action architectures in order to study human-agent and agent-agent interaction and apply his findings to crowd simulation and the self-organization of groups of robots.
