The Costs of Cognition from an Information-Theoretic perspective: experimental validation – CoCogIT
The first objective of the present project is to provide empirical evidence for the link between information cost and cognitive effort and to assess the validity of the local and global limited capacity hypotheses regarding the nature of this link. This issue will be tackled in work package 1 (WP1).
Learning Intelligible Task Models for Cobots Programming – Prog4Yu
The ambition of cobotics (or collaborative robotics) in industrial environments is to «get the industrial robot out of its protective cage« to work close to human operators on the same workstation. Man and Robot work safely together, side-by-side, on tasks combining physical effort and human experti
Humans and deer during the Palaeolithic: integrating the variability of prey ecology and ethology in the investigation of past human – environment interactions – DeerPal
The Palaeolithic is an invaluable source of insight into human – animal – environment interactions, as it provides a deep time perspective of human resilience in the face of changing resources, environmental risk, and catastrophe. In this vein, the DeerPal project hopes to acquire new fundamental kn
CREativity in Additive Manufacturing – CREAM
The objective of this ANR project is to propose a suite of tools and methods of creativity in Additive Manufacturing (AM) based on intermediate objects of AM, in order to promote awareness, creativity and organizational integration of the FA to the design teams. The associated scientific lock lies i
Chemically Architectured MEtallic aLloys, towards a new strengthening mechanism – CAMEL
CAMEL: Chemically Architectured MEtallic aLloys, towards a new strengthening mechanism Keywords: Materials, mechanical properties, design of new metallic alloys. Metallic alloys are essential as structural materials for many industrial applications. For such applications, the unwanted compromi
Towards more sustainable wastewater treatments: Taking into consideration the TRANSformation PROducts of organic micropollutants – TRANSPRO
Water is, and will become more and more, a scarce resource that should be protected especially taking into consideration chemical contamination. One of contaminant inputs in aquatic ecosystems is related to wastewater treatment plant effluents. Indeed the various used treatments even if efficient re
Wealth Inequalities and the Dynamics of Housing Market.Interpreting real-estate market-based regime of spatial inequalities (WIsDHoM) – WIsDHoM
We investigate to what extent contemporary social inequality is shaped by one’s relationship to spatially stratified housing markets. We hypothesize that the flow of real estate investments and residential housing production are predicated upon the intensifying financial stratification of urban ineq
Approximating Deep Learning Accelerators – AdequateDL
The computational workload involved with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for deep learning (DL) is often out of reach for low-power embedded devices and is still very costly when run on data centers. By relaxing the need for fully precise operations, approximate computing substantially improves
Color images multiplexing by laser structuring of plasmonic materials for security and personalization of ID cards – MIXUP
In a context where government agencies develop enhanced security policies and technologies to track and protect the correct identity of every person, the MIXUP proposal aims at developing a breaking approach in the field of physical authentication of ID documents such as passports, ID cards, driving
Changement climatique, migrations et systeme de santé
L’année 2022 a été marquée par le lancement en Haïti, et la poursuite au Bangladesh, de la collecte de données qualitatives et quantitatives. En Haïti, l’équipe de ClimHB a collecté en janvier 2022 des données par entretiens ciblés, et focus groups dans le département de Grand’Anse, dans le sud du p
