"Official" Biography:

A former Full Professor and (still) search engine specialist, Sylvain is co-founder and CEO of Babbar, which operates the SEO tools yourtext.guru and babbar.tech. For over 20 years, he has been developing algorithms to assist decision-making in contexts involving large volumes of data. In 2016, he was awarded the SEMY Award for Search Personality of the Year at the SMX Conference in Paris.

Although I have been in the private sector and a business owner since 2014, I still consider myself primarily an algorithmician. I view computer science as an experimental discipline, where theory is a helpful tool but not an end by itself. My favorite topics include machine learning, approximation algorithms (usually probabilistic), and the fascinating question of the quality of decision-making with respect to information loss.

Beyond that, my interests include business and investment strategies, sociology of the algorithmic world, applied philosophy, and technical engineering.
