Guillaume Couairon
I am currently a researcher at INRIA (ARCHES team) where my research focus is machine learning for weather and climate. I am especially interested in how generative models can revolutionize weather forecasting.

Personal Projects
- I am a big fan of educational videos on YouTube. I have created the website YTMap which is a manually curated and organized set of videos I like most, along with a clean and distract-free interface to watch them on.
- I am passionate about music, especially jazz/funk improvisation and electronic music composition. You can find a list of my compositions on SoundCloud
