Visualization and analysis of multi-dimensional hyperspectral images in Astrophysics – VAHINE
conSistent EStimation and lArge random MatricEs – SESAME
The project addresses estimation problems in the fields of signal processing and wireless communications. We consider the frequent case where the observed signal yn corresponds to a multivariate time series of dimension M and where one needs a certain function of the covariance matrix RM = E(ynyH
Really Open Simple Efficient Syndication – ROSES
Internet has become an economical support for publishing and distributing information in a large scale. Internet publishing techniques can be distinguished by the client's control on the origin and the quality of the published information, their precision in reaching only clients interested in th
Extraction et Fusion d'Informations pour la mesure de Déplacement par Imagerie Radar – EFIDIR
The SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data acquired today by remote sensing satellites require a particularly large storage capacity: 1 Gigabyte for a couple of ERS scenes (100 km by 100 km), more than 20 GB of raw data for a time series analysis (> 40 images), expanding into more than 140 GB during
Constitution, alignement, comparaison et exploitation d'ontologies géographiques hétérogènes – GEONTO
The GEONTO project focuses on interoperability of diverse data related to geographic information. We particularly intend to facilitate applications dealing with such a diversity, from the integration of database schemas to the intuitive query of textual documents, being either technical or common
Conditional Random Fields for Computational Linguistics – CROTAL
The CRoTAL (Conditional Random Fields for TAL) project aims at exploring and developing new techniques to process huge textual banks. Every corpususer know that manual annotation of corpora is timeconsuming and errorprone. When possible, machine learning approaches are much preferred. The CroT
Méthodologie et outils pour l'application de la sémantique de corpus au filtrage de masses documentaires – C-MANTC
The projet called « C-Mantic » aims at providing tools for the search of scientific information on the web, using the methods of text-based semantics in addition to the classical search methods (based on keywords). Hence, the project does aim at realizing new search engines but at completing sear
Acquisition, Treatment and Rendering Of Complex Objects – ATROCO
Algorithms for realistic image synthesis have numerous applications, for example in cultural heritage, special effects for movies, virtual prototyping and video games. A common theme for all these applications is that they require more and more realistic images, with more realistic models. But the
Indexation, catégoratisation et organisation de documents multimédia – OMNIA
The Omnia project aims at filtering documents containing text and images, in a context of data profusion, as they are found on intranets and on Internet, and to present them to users in a content processing tool such as DocuShare (Xerox). The originality of the project is to work on 3 dimensions (
Generic summaries of structured data streams – MIDAS
More and more human activities are supported by computerized systems. This generates more and more volumes of data to be considered when analysing and monitoring human activities. When the volume of data increases it becomes very expensive (sometimes impossible) to store all available data before
image-based Town On-line Web Navigation and Searchengine – ITOWNS
The goal of this project is to define and implement a new generation prototype of multimedia web tools that mixes a broadband 3D geographic image-based browser (such as the French Geoportail, Google Earth, Microsoft live Earth) together with an image-based search engine with queries. This projec
Grapheme-based Retrieval and Analysis for PalaeograpHic Expertise of Middle Age Manuscripts – GRAPHEM
Grapheme based Retrieval and Analysis for PaleograpHic Expertise of Middle Age manuscripts The GRAPHEM project is a multi-disciplinary project that is based on rich medieval manuscripts corpus. It has two ambitions: • to contribute to the creation of a true objective and scientific paleography;
Distributed Indexing and Search by Content – DISCO
textual documents. However, a large number of data sources provide multimedia documents (sound, images, audio-visual documents), for which the description techniques remain rudimentary, restricted to very specific types of sources (e.g. identity photos), and not very homogeneous because built acc
Captation, Analyse et Représentation Temporelle des Evolutions d’un Corpus – CARTEC
Cartec is an industrial research project which focuses on the analysis of the temporal evolution of hypermedia information data sets that evolve in a random way, in order to transform them into a structured corpus. This transformation raises three main issues, forming the three main activities of
3D Models And Dynamic models Representation And Segmentation – MADRAS
With the recent technological developments concerning three-dimensional images (3D scanners, 3D graphic accelerated hardware, Web3D, and so on), the creation and storage of three-dimensional models has become a reality. The usage range of the three-dimensional models is wide: cultural heritage, m
Knowledge discovery For and By Inductive Queries in post-genomic applications – BINGO2
This project concerns the design of new methods and tools for supporting knowledge discovery from databases. We strongly believe that basic research in data mining has to consider real-life scenarios and we decided to address a few concrete KDD processes for molecular biology, e.g., gene synexpres
Recherche Interactive d'Images – R2I
The R2I project aims at conceiving methods for interactive search of images in very large datasets (typically one billion images). It is interesting to note that a recent poll done by IFOP-Omnibus in 2006, studying satisfaction of Internet users, highlighted that 96% of them were on the whole sat
