Tarik Kaced (cv: FR EN)



I am now looking for a position, Hire me!
I was a post-doctoral fellow at LACL.
Until Feb 2015, I was a post-doctoral fellow at the Institute of Network Coding, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK).
I completed my PhD in Dec 2012 at LIRMM (UM2) under the supervision of Alexander Shen and Andrei Romashchenko.
I studied the theories of Secret Sharing and Kolmogorov Complexity.
My thesis is available here.

Keywords:

information theory, cryptography, secret sharing, information inequalities, entropy, Kolmogorov Complexity, computability, combinatorics, matroids.
