Vincent Taboga
I am a postdoctoral researcher at Mila, working with Professors Pierre-Luc Bacon and Yoshua Bengio. I completed my Ph.D. at Polytechnique Montréal and Mila under the supervision of Professors Hanane Dagdougui and Pierre-Luc Bacon. My doctoral research focused on the optimal control of HVAC systems in buildings participating in Demand Response programs.
My research interests lie in advancing optimal control algorithms to address real-world challenges. I am particularly drawn to model-based control, physics-informed models, neural differential equations, and offline reinforcement learning. Given the urgent need for a more responsible and sustainable use of energy and natural resources, I am especially interested in optimal energy management at both the building and grid scales.
