Thibault Napoléon received a Master degree in computer science at the University Pierre and Marie Curie in 2006. Then he obtained a PhD degree in computer vision at LTCI (Telecom ParisTech) in 2010 about multi-view indexing and 3D objects retrieval, under the supervision of Francis Schmitt and Hichem Sahbi. In 2009-2010, He held a lecturer and research assistant position at the Enssat engineer school. From january 2011 to august 2012, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher on face recognition at CNRS-GREYC (Caen) with Professor Frederic Jurie. Since september 2012, he is a lecturer researcher at ISEN Yncréa Ouest in the Vision-AD team of the L@BISEN. His research interests are computer vision (visual content analysis, image and shape matching, shape recognition…) and content-based retrieval (face recognition, multimedia content description, accuracy and speed optimization for information retrieval). He co-supervise Phd student working on detection, recognition and tracking. He has published about twenty papers on computer vision and optical approaches. He also participate to several European project for image retrieval, content analysis and description. Finally, he actively collaborates with companies with technological transfers.
