Xavier MARCHAL

Temporary contract until august 2024, I am currently working on the ANR PRESTO project, where I have to develop all the elements of the network to enable web browsing with an additional cryptographic layer based on KP-ABE. The whole solution aims to enable web content filtering without leaking private information. Previously, I was working on the ANR MOSAICO project, which aims to develop new multi-level network functions for processing low-latency traffic. The main mission was to ensure the project management of the technical parts which includes in particular the development of new network functions, the constitution of a representative dataset and the integration of the different components produced at the project scale into a final demonstrator. – Technical lead for a PhD student. – Characterization of Cloud gaming traffic. – Development of a client-server cloud gaming-like software (a bit like parsec) for L4S networks with the help of SCReAM congestion control algorithm. – Development of a Probe for cloud gaming analysis. – Substitute teacher for practical work/tutorials on networks and systems.

– Deployment of NVR server + development of an Al-based person detection notification system (Linux, FFmpeg, Docker, Python, PyTorch) – Search engine evaluator – Troubleshooting

I worked in the field of neural networks, I was assigned to the explainable Al team. I mainly worked with classifiers and learned about semantic segmentation and object detection. I also managed backend development for a CI for AI solution and handled the infrastructure.

Architectures and advanced functions for a progressive deployment of Information-Centric Networking (ICN): https://hal.inria.fr/tel-02315611 (in french, 1 page english abstract at the end) My work was part of the DOCTOR ANR project: https://anr.fr/Projet-ANR-14-CE28-0001, http://www.doctor-project.org/. It was a nice introduction to working with several partners with Orange, THALES, Montimage and UTT.
