Fares Grina
Portrait of Fares Grina

I’m an R&D AI engineer at Talan, currently working as a consultant at Coface, where I build AI agents and data pipelines on top of business information and credit-risk data.

Before that, I did a PhD on uncertainty modeling for imbalanced learning with Eric Lefèvre (Université d’Artois) and Zied Elouedi (ISG, Université de Tunis). I used belief function theory to build classifiers that stay reliable when some classes are rare, noisy or overlapping.

These days I think about when we can trust AI systems: how to evaluate LLMs, what their confidence scores actually mean, and when a small decision model is all you need.
