Artificial Intelligence for Health, Physical Models, Transportation and Defense – AHEAD

AI has a major impact in essentially all fields in science and humanities. At Cnam, several laboratories are developing research programs in AI. This proposal gathers actors from computer science and applied mathematics, which perform fundamental research in AI, and institutions using AI technologies as breakthrough tools to advance their research. The proposed programme focuses on four strategic domains that are in line with the national priorities defined by the Villani Report and have an interdisciplinary nature: healthcare, transportation, physics, and cyber-security. It explores core problems in Artificial Intelligence including computer science, statistics and deep learning problems, personalized medicine and prevention for healthcare, energy optimization and planning for transportation, inverse problems and constrained machine learning for physics, explainable machine learning for cyber-security.
It also fits well in the strategic development plan of the Cnam. The recruitment process will follow specific rules that guarantee transparency and comply to the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. This programme is accompanied by the Cnam and receives strong support from industrial, commercial or institutional partners.
