Arthur Filoche

Arthur Filoche is a Research Fellow at the UWA Oceans Institute (School of Earth and Oceans), The University of Western Australia. He holds a PhD in electrical engineering with specialization in applied mathematics and data science, focusing on variational data assimilation and deep learning for numerical weather forecasting. His research bridges physics-based inverse problems and machine learning, particularly in improving ocean wave forecasts in Western Australia under Prof. Jeff Hansen's supervision. He volunteers as a science teacher at Currambine Primary School.

• Education: French engineering degree + PhD in applied mathematics/data science

Research interests include machine learning applications for ocean/atmospheric systems, data assimilation techniques, and developing algorithms for undersampled measurement challenges. Recent work emphasizes sea surface height interpolation from satellite data and spatiotemporal wind forecasting models. His publications span environmental science, computer vision, and meteorology domains.

Currently supervising PhD projects applying machine learning to correct spectral ocean wave forecasts. Active in collaborative research across Western Australia and international partnerships. No listed scientific awards but maintains an h-index of 5 with 16 total citations.
