What Is jeromedockes.github.io?
Updated
jeromedockes.github.io is the personal homepage of Jérôme Dockès, a research engineer in the SODA lab at Inria, France. The site is a brief professional profile rather than a blog or product page: it states his role, the open-source machine-learning software he develops and maintains, and how to reach him or verify his identity.
What the site covers
The page is short and factual. It identifies Dockès as a research engineer at Inria's SODA lab and describes his work as the development of open-source software related to machine learning, with skrub named as his main project. It then lists the projects he maintains or has developed, his publications, and his contact and cryptographic details.
| Section | What it provides |
|---|---|
| Role and affiliation | Research engineer, SODA lab, Inria, France |
| Main focus | Open-source machine-learning software, mainly skrub |
| Projects | Maintainer of skrub and Nilearn; developer and maintainer of NeuroQuery (with Romain Primet and Hande Gözükan), pubget, and labelbuddy |
| Contact | Email: [email protected] |
| Code | GitHub account |
| Publications | Listed on the page |
| Identity verification | OpenPGP public key: rsa4096/BB047DAC040B35F4, with fingerprint |
Who each part is useful for
- Developers looking for the maintainer behind a library. If you use skrub, Nilearn, NeuroQuery, pubget, or labelbuddy and want to know who is behind it, this page gives the maintainer's own account of his involvement.
- Researchers and collaborators. The listed publications and the Inria/SODA affiliation are the relevant starting points for academic contact.
- Anyone verifying a signed message or package. The OpenPGP key ID and fingerprint are published here, so you can check that a key you received matches the one the author advertises.
What the site does not offer
The page is a profile, not a documentation hub. It does not host tutorials, API references, or downloads for skrub or the other projects; for those, follow the project links from his GitHub account. It also does not state pricing, licensing terms, or availability details for any software, so treat the site as a pointer to the projects rather than a source for their terms.
Practical use
To contact him about a project, use the email address listed on the page. To confirm a signed release or message, compare the key fingerprint against rsa4096/BB047DAC040B35F4 as published there. To follow or contribute to his software work, start from the GitHub account linked on the site, where the maintained projects are listed.
