Slimane Dridi
@slimanedridi
Research scientist in mathematical modelling who built pyNamo-EGT, an open-source Python library for evolutionary game dynamics.
FranceWhat I'm looking for
I built and maintain pyNamo-EGT, an open-source Python library for equilibrium analysis and visualisation of evolutionary game dynamics, published on PyPI with automated releases, tests, documentation and browser-based tutorials.
At the Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse, I developed and analysed stochastic models of reinforcement learning and cooperation in repeated games, checking analytical predictions against simulations. In independent quantitative research, I built Python tools for market data analysis and backtested systematic trading strategies, focusing on robustness and out-of-sample performance.
