🚀 About Me

I’m currently pursuing my Ph.D. at Polytechnique Montréal, working with the BayesWorks and LITIV research groups.
My research combines Diffusion Models with Bayesian Neural Networks to push the boundaries of uncertainty quantification and generative modeling.

• 🔬 Research interests:
  • Probabilistic deep learning & uncertainty
  • Generative models (diffusion, autoregressive)
  • CUDA kernel development for high‑performance inference
• 💡 Passion projects:
  • Generative AI demos
  • Computer vision pipelines
  • Robotics & autonomous systems
• 📚 When I’m offline:
  • Sci‑fi reading & world‑building
  • Open‑source contributions

📥 Getting Started

1. Clone this repo

   git clone https://github.com/miquelflorensa/miquelflorensa.github.io.git
   cd miquelflorensa.github.io

2. Install dependencies

   npm install
   # or
   yarn install

3. Configure your environment

   • All settings (site URL, number of posts/projects to show, socials, etc.) live in src/consts.ts.
   • Update any personal links or email in that file.

4. Run development server

   npm run dev
   # or
   yarn dev

   Preview at http://localhost:3000.

📦 Build & Deploy

Local build

npm run build
# or
yarn build

• Outputs static files to dist/.

GitHub Actions (auto‑deploy)

A workflow in .github/workflows/deploy.yml will:

1. Install dependencies
2. Build the site
3. Publish the dist/ folder to GitHub Pages (root of this repo’s main branch)

Note: You do not commit node_modules/; dependencies are installed on the runner.
