Gilles Stoltz

Gilles Stoltz is an alumnus of the Ecole Normale Supérieure of Cachan and holds a Ph.D.from the University Paris-Sud Orsay since 2005.

His research interests focus on the sequential prediction of arbitrary sequences, both from an industrial viewpoint (prediction of electricity consumption or air-quality forecasting) and from a game-theoretic viewpoint (when players aim at forecasting each other's actions).

He is a researcher for CNRS at the GREGHEC laboratory. In addition, he is an affiliate professor at HEC, where he teaches the foundations of statistics in the bachelor programme.

He was awarded in 2008 the Marie-Jeanne Laurent-Duhamel prize of the young statistician by the French statistical society.
