Automated mechanical lab' and model calibration – AutoMeCal
Extensive use of virtual mechanical design for shaping processes and structural parts makes it possible to use materials more sparingly, reducing product mass and production rejects due to variations in material properties from one batch to the next. The robustness and reliability of such a design i
TRANSport and interactions of microPLASTics in urban combined sewer overflows and development of mitigation solutions – TRANSPLAST
With proven effects on the environment and health, synthetic polymer microparticles usually called microplastics (MPs) can accumulate in the food chain, release toxic substances or serve as vectors for other contaminants and pathogens. Urban areas are major sources and pathways for the transfer of M
Impact of Inland Navigation on the Environment – INFLUE
The French river network consists of approximately 18,000 km of waterways, of which 8,500 km are navigable. This network includes rivers and canals that have been developed and opened for transport. France has one of the longest networks of navigable waterways in Europe. This mode of transport has t
DEsign of Low emission and efficient Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engines – DELHYCE
Europe is defining its trajectory to assume its ecological transition, its “Green Deal”, through the implementation of a set of political initiatives. In front of an inflexible guideline, considered sometimes dogmatic, the European Parliament aims to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent.
Towards a smart blood culture bottle: Machine learning assisted electrochemical profiling to provide early in-situ identification of bloodstream infection pathogens – E-MOC
Despite all improvements in the diagnosis of infectious diseases in the last 20 years, the socioeconomic burden of bloodstream infections (BSI) is still high for every country all around the world. Approximately 20% of global mortality worldwide (11 million deaths per year) is related to sepsis. Thu
Foam-bonding process for granular wastes – BONDINGFOAM
One of the key stages in materials recycling is their crushing into granular material to be re-used by incorporation into the production lines of new objects. In a certain number of cases however, simple shaping using a binder, and a possible post-treatment of the peripheral surfaces, would make it
Mechanisms and contribution of Musashi-mediated control of cell wall polysaccharide synthesis in plants – MusaWall
As the main constituent of the terrestrial plant biomass, lignocellulose represents a huge reservoir of fixed carbon and a renewable raw material that is essential for human usages. Lignocellulose biomass enclosed within secondary cell wall (SCW) is mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and li
Personalized Optimization with Human Feedback – Human-O
In this project, I propose to explore and design new algorithms at the intersection of optimiza- tion, dynamical systems, and learning of the user’s costs and constraints, allowing end users to have a choice between possible decisions, and learn from it. [S1] Learning to optimize for dynamical syst
3D Fe/Cu-PEROVskites for electrochemically assisted TREATment of wastewaters – PEROV-TREAT
PEROV-TREAT aims at integrating perovskite-based porous materials in an electrochemical process for wastewater treatment in order to improve the treatment of persistent micropollutants and the management of antibiotic resistance, with the objective of reusing treated wastewaters. The application wil
Fair Multimodal Learning – FAMOUS
The aim of this project is to explore the first avenues of research into the contribution of multimodality in datasets to meet the requirements of fair learning. Fairness refers here to the biases (in the data and/or induced), while being interested in the interpretability of the models to help thei
