Welcome to Nuit Blanche

This blog is focused on the technical solutions of different important open problems and the tools needed to solve them. In particular, it focuses on Compressed Sensing and making sense of high dimensional data.



As to the meaning of the title of this blog, Nuit Blanche translates from French into "all nighter" or "restless night".


My email is : igorcarron@gmail.com and my Web page is right here. I have put my profiles and set up my network on both LinkedIn and FaceBook. I am also on Twitter.

Igor Carron.
