SEarch-oriented ConverSAtIonal systeMS – SESAMS
Search-oriented conversational systems are characterized by a heterogeneous context involving: 1) implicit feedback with respect to the search engine and/or 2) natural language information needs expressed through the conversational system. This complex framework gives rise to novel challenges: •U
Engineering RNA life cycle to optimize economy of microbial energy: application to the bioconversion of biomass-derived carbon sources – RIB-ECO
Improving the performance of microbial platforms to transform biomass into bioproducts is crucial for the development of sustainable and economically relevant biotechnological processes. Metabolic engineering to optimize expression of native or heterologous pathways often leads to significant energy
Virtual humanoids learning motion skills – HUSKI
In a nutshell, the project aims at exploring the use of learning algorithms in the context of humanoid motion to construct repertoires of skills that can be mobilized adequately to create complex motions. For that purpose, the focus is put on the exploration of specificities and techniques related t
Coupled Learning and Vision for Aerial Robot Control – CLARA
- The control of the drone in a complex and unknown environment; - The perception and representation of a complex and unstructured environment for obstacle avoidance and the study of traversability; - 3D reconstruction and localization of a flying robot in an environment where objects are not very
Enhancing the therapeutic effect of MSC in osteoarthritis: role of PPARb/d – PPAROA
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative and inflammatory joint disorder. Despite the increase in OA incidence, there is still no effective treatment capable of restoring the structure of articular cartilage and function of damaged joints. Consequently, mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (MSC)
The EYE, a WINdow to neurovascular coupling – EyeWin
The goal of the EyeWin project is to provide an advanced clinical tool to probe neurovascular coupling in the retina at the micrometer and millisecond scale, so as to analyze NVC through high resolution stimulation and imaging of vascular response biomarkers. The Eyewin project aims therefore to exp
Controlled Computation of Point-Defect Characteristics in High entropy Alloys – CoCoA
Due to their high number of components at high concentration and to their disordered behavior, HEAs are a challenge for numerical simulations. In particular, point defect properties in these materials are no longer single values but correspond to statistical distributions. Ideally, ab initio calcula
Optical sensors for air quality monitoring (gaz NO2, O3) – CAPTAIN
The CAPTAIN project (Optical Sensors for Air Quality Monitoring with regard to NO2, O3, pollutants), aims to develop a new generation of highly sensitivity, highly selective, robust, miniature, low-cost and energy-efficient optical micro sensors, dedicated to the monitoring of gaseous pollutants fo
Social Choice and Social Networks – SCONE
The SCONE project studies social choice in the presence of a social network that links decision-makers. It is built around three research objectives: • OBJ1 - The study of the diffusion of opinions under constraints, in particular the exploration of the links between updating functions computable
Coherent High Q Micro-resonator Blue Light Sources – COMBO
The project is divided in three main objectives. The first objective will draw up a panorama of the linear and nonlinear properties of WGMR in the blue range. A particular focus will be done on fluoride crystalline resonators identified as best candidates for the realization of either linear or nonl
