Knowledge engineering consulting - Research and development
Une version française de cette description (avec des réalisations supplémentaires) est visible sur la page dédiée à mon activité de consultant.
As an engineer and holding a PhD in computer science, I can help you set up a relevant exploitation of your data: from the modeling of information to its collection, cleaning, exploration and visualization, to serve as a support for their analysis. In order to make your data “speak”, one of the challenges is to make them intelligible, via interactive and dedicated presentations that I can design and / or develop. Reflection on the issues of information modeling and visualization can also shed new light and new questions on research practices.
A practitioner of interdisciplinarity, I can interact with and bridge the gap between different communities, taking advantage of my experience built through projects related to Digital Humanities, media studies, education, arts...
I can bring contributions in different phases of your projects: questioning practices, finding innovative solutions, setting up experimental or operational devices, analysis of uses, scientific promotion ...
Do not hesitate to contact me to discuss your concerns.

Teaching
I can share my knowledge and expertise in multiple areas, to a variety of audiences: students, researchers, practitioners...
Free Software
I develop and contribute mainly to Free/Libre Software. I am the main developer of the Advene video annotation software, the author and maintainer of the python-vlc bindings and have contributed to some projects such as:
- VLC (python bindings, SVG overlay...)
- gstreamer (SVG overlay element)
- MetadataPlayer (various improvements)
- FrameTrail
Most of the software I produce is on my Github account.
- Advene - video annotation and hypervideo authoring tool
- python-vlc - VLC python bindings
- OpenParliamentTV - Bundestag parliement proceedings and videos parsing/alignment
- COCoNotes - simple online video annotation platform
- COCoNotes Live - private microblogging tool
- TMG - TransMoGrifier, media transcoding and processing platform
- Metadataplayer - a fork from the Metadataplayer project from IRI.
- Metadataserver - a simple server for MetaDataPlayer
- flash-timeline - generic trace visualisation timeline
- NoTS - NoSQL Trace Storage
- ktbs4js - activity trace module for javascript
- astraces1 - activity trace capture API for actionscript
- tales4as - TALES interpreter for actionscript
- michaux - a faceted painting catalogue
- kadist - semantic tag-based navigation in art catalogue
Helpers
- pygst-launch, a python-Gtk GUI for testing and interacting with Gstreamer pipelines. It depends on the evaluator module. For convenience, a standalone version is provided.
- Some components of the Advene application are purposedly independant from the application, and can be reused as-is in other applications.
- evaluator, a reusable interactive python evaluator for pygtk applications, with completion, source introspection...
- snapshotter, a python-gstreamer component/script allowing to get snapshots for specific timestamps from a video stream.
- shapewidget, a basic SVG editor (only for a subset of SVG).
- completer, a python-Gtk text-completion system that can easily be hooked into any Gtk.TextView component.
