A transdisciplinary exploration of the Acheulean through bone surface modifications and the cutting implements that produced them – BSMART
The Acheulean was one of the most successful Palaeolithic cultures lasting for more than 1.5 million years, spreading across three continents, and in association with at last five different hominin species. The Acheulean is marked by the emergence of cutting implements in larger formats (Large Cutti
New perspectives in robotics opened by high-speed vision and rolling shutter – VIRAGO
This project takes place in the framework of vision-based modeling, identification and control of parallel robots. Those points are now fairly well studied, both from a pure robotic point of view and from the one of geometric vision applied to parallel robots, in a kinematic approach. However, the d
Bridging social psychology of cognition and behavior genetics: A new look at twin studies. – TWINS
A prominent finding in twin research is the very high degree of intellectual resemblance among monozygotic (MZ) twins, relative to dizygotic (DZ) twins and nontwin siblings, a phenomenon reflecting the action of genetic as well as environmental factors (e.g., socio-economic status, parenting, educat
Multi-users wireless access techniques fOr MassivE machiNe-Type communications – MOMENT
Telecommunications have experienced a paradigm shift in the past decades with the advent of Internet or things (IoT). With this new huge market, a lot of several interesting challenges have emerged, particularly with the potential inclusion of the IoT world in the future fifth generation of cellular
Transactional operations in sensor environments – TransCap
Sensor querying has become a very popular research topic in many areas of computer science such as networks, databases, embedded operating systems and more generally, ubiquitous computing. This is due to the fact that the contributions of these tiny yet intelligent devices to the new "information ev
Tractability for Understanding and Pushing forward the Limits of Efficient Solvers – TUPLES
The aim of this project is to significantly push forward the observed effectiveness of resolution systems (called "solvers") while providing the theoretical tools necessary for this purpose. We plan to address this issue through the development and exploitation of tractable classes. This study conce
Digital communication free collaborative robots swarms – RoboSCo
This project presented in response to the ASTRID ASRO 2021 call for projects deals with perception and decision mechanisms for robot swarms with neither absolute positioning nor digital communications. It aims at studying : - Perception mechanisms and algorithms allowing a swarm of autonomous rob
Characterization of cerebral and oculometric markers of the out-of-the-loop phenomenon during the supervision of an automated system in aeronautic context – EMOOL
In recent decades, the world around us has experienced profound technological changes, driven in particular by advances in autonomy, robotics and artificial intelligence. Today, human agents are regularly confronted highly automated, even autonomous systems, whose the primary role is to supervise th
Statistical learning for multi-dimensional SAR imagery – ASTRAL
SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) imagery is based on the emission of electromagnetic microwaves that are then backscattered by the elements on the ground surface, thus allowing the measurement of their physical properties. The relative phase shift of the waves received by the radar, measured by combin
Ultra Low Power Smart 3D Cochlea – ULP-COCHLEA
Objective 1: Design a bioinspired analog cochlea The objective is to design a bioinspired CMOS cochlea able (like any mammal ear) to convert acoustic analog signals to parallel trains of spikes and bi (multi-channel) naurally to localization. The cochlea will be connected to an existing ULP hydroph
