PERceptual Scheme for 2D&3D vidE(E)o coding – PERSEE
PERSEE "PERceptual Scheme for 2D&3D vidE(E)o Coding" Context and positionning: Our digital age has seen a large deployment of video coding standards. The latest standard H.264/AVC follows a classical coding model, on the other hand a new impulse to research is brought by the emergence of new formats
Structure et dynamique des liquides surfondus – Strudylis
Liquid systems are an outstanding example of systems containing great relevance in both basic science and industrial applications since the molten state is an essential stage in various industrial processes (glass making, semi-conductors technologies, aerospace companies, nuclear industry, etc.). Al
short-range Order and Electron ultra-fast DYnamics in Phase transition from solid to laser-generated Warm Dense Matter – OEDYP
The study of the so-called Warm Dense Matter (WDM) is an emerging and challenging field that is at the crossroads of condensed matter and plasma physics. Here the density goes from one percent of the solid density up to 10 times its value; the temperature varies from 0.1 to 100 eV. In this regime, m
Miroir A Réseau SUb-longueur d'onde Pour les LAsers à émission verticale dans le Moyen Infrarouge – MARSUPILAMI
Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL) have already demonstrated their excellent ability as compact sources for molecular spectroscopic measurements. For these applications, the mid-IR wavelengths (' > 2.6 µm) represent a major field of investigations since they allow the detection of mole
Emergence dans les modèles de calcul – EMC
Computational models are inherently linked to the concept of complex systems: in many complex systems the computational aspects play a crucial role in terms of predictability/unpredictability and also in the analysis of chaos appearance. Conversely, complex behaviours are observed in computational m
Transition résistive induite par pulses électriques dans des isolants de Mott : Mécanisme et contrôle à l’échelle nanométrique – NanoMott
During the last few years Electric Pulse Induced Resistive Switching (EPIRS) phenomena have rapidly emerged into an exciting frontier in the active area of strongly correlated systems, due to possible technological applications in next generation electronic devices. The project participants have rec
Atomic scale foundations of a new phase in network-forming glasses and liquids – PHASABINIT
CONTEXT: The recent discovery of an intermediate phase between the well-known flexible and rigid phases in network glasses has opened a new field of investigation in glass science with potential interesting applications. Indeed, this phase displays a certain number of remarkable properties such as t
Improving practices regarding information, consent and non-opposition in health genetics in France – INFOGENETIC-FR
The current sequencing technologies used in genetics and the massive data generated in healthcare and research are challenging patients' rights to prior information, consent and non-opposition. Respect for autonomy is an ethical and legal requirement in France, which means that individuals must part
Evaluation de l’importance de la sélection sexuelle sur les traits femelles et de ses conséquences sur la viabilité des populations – SEX-FEM-POP
Sexual selection, as traditionally viewed, is predicted to increase, rather than decrease, population adaptive potential. This prediction stems from the fact that the good-genes process allows the selection against deleterious mutations to affect males more than females. This process would entail a
Integrated 3D visualisation for urban surface and underground data – DeepCity3D
Europe cities and their hinterlands are major foci of business, heritage, culture and development. Many have geological issues that inhibit economic and sustainable development. Moreover, underneath today's city streets exists a labyrinth of caves, quarries and lifelines (sewer, gas, electric and te
