About Me
I'm Jérémie Mabiala, someone who studied mathematics and ended up fascinated by what machines can learn.
I'm currently pursuing an MSc in Artificial Intelligence through the African Master in Machine Intelligence (AMMI) program at AIMS Senegal. I hold a Master's in Mathematical Sciences from Stellenbosch University & AIMS South Africa, where I graduated in 2024 with a thesis on Gaussian Processes for Multivariate Functional Data, supervised by Prof. Sophie Dabo-Niang. My current interests span ML theory, NLP, functional data analysis, and optimization.
Before that, I taught. I spent a year as an assistant lecturer in Real Analysis, Linear Algebra, Functional Analysis, and General Topology at the University of Kinshasa. I'm currently a resident teaching assistant at AIMS Senegal, where I run bootcamps in Python, PyTorch, Introduction to Machine Learning, and Linear Algebra. Teaching has been one of the better ways I've found to actually understand something.
Outside of coursework I write, build small tools, and read about machine learning, software engineering, and mathematics.
