Xavier Hinaut
Research scientist (permanent) at INRIA in Bordeaux, France in the
MNEMOSYNE team, since 2016.
His research explores brain mechanisms of complex sequence processing,
language and bird song, using Recurrent Neural Networks.
Xavier Hinaut received an M.S. in Computer Science from the UTC in 2008
and an M.S. in Cognitive Sciences and IA from the EPHE in 2009. He
obtained his PhD in Computational Neuroscience in Lyon, France (sup: PF
Dominey).
He made two post-docs:
- in 2014 at the University of Paris South - Orsay (France); topic:
neuroscience of songbirds, in particular on the syntax of canaries,
- in 2013 & 2015 at the University of Hamburg (Germany) with a Marie
Curie IEF Grant; topic: language acquisition for developmental robotics
with recurrent neural networks.
