About
I am currently a PhD student in electrical engineering (automation and systems) at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal. My PhD's topic is: fault detection and filtering under privacy constraints, application to smart buildings. My Thesis Supervisor is Jerome Le Ny. I earned a master of engineering in electrical engineering in 2011 after graduating from the National engineering school of TOGO. After that, I was one of the eight persons selected on the whole continent (Africa) among more than 2000 applications: I was then a Erasmus Mundus scholarship holder from September 2013 to September 2015(scholarship of excellence). I earned a master of science in Systems, Autonomous Machines and Terrain Networks (SMART) in 2015 after graduating from Lille1 university in FRANCE.
