Nicolas Gast

Since 2014, I am a research associate in Inria, Grenoble. My research interests focus on stochastic models and stochastic optimization with a particular emphasis on mean field approximation methods. I did several work on the use Stein's method to compute the approximation error of mean field or fluid approximation.
The applications of my work spans stochastic networks, stochastic optimization (Markov decision processes, online learning, reinforcement learning), and design of control algorithms for large-scale systems (such as communication networks and electricity networks).
