Federated learning is a way to collaboratively train artificial intelligence models. It thus represents a possible solution to AI biases, often caused by training said models on samples that lack diversity. In the healthcare sector, these biases can lead to problems of equity between patients. The EQUIHid project explores how federated learning can help develop more equitable healthcare services.
The RESOH Chair’s mission is to address safety and performance issues from a socio-organizational perspective. For its third term, the Chair will have a special focus on the issue of skills and facilitating the use of research results by its partners. This research and teaching project led by IMT Atlantique closely analyzes work activities and the dynamics surrounding “safe performance” in high-risk industries, particularly the nuclear sector.
Methanization reduces the volume of organic waste and prevents biogas produced by fermentation, including methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from being dispersed into the atmosphere. Biogas is also used to produce heat, electricity and even biomethane for injection into the natural gas grid. Yves Andrès and Khaled Loubar, researchers at IMT Atlantique, tell us more about this technology which is emerging as a key driver of energy transition.
Researchers from IMT Mines Alès have developed an innovative, ecological and biodegradable material: AlgiFoam. The production methods based on expanded biopolymer beads have brought it closer to meeting industrial requirements and offer greater shaping possibilities. This project is rapidly expanding and will soon give rise to a start-up. Here is a closer look at how this exploratory concept traveled from the lab to luxury display cases.
Paris Saclay Cancer Cluster offers a wide range of scientific and technical solutions to support the challenging field of research aimed at fighting cancer. Telecom Paris is invested in this ambitious initiative, which strengthens ties between those driving innovation in oncology and provides access to a combination of technological platforms, databases, expertise and training opportunities.
Bio-waste is everywhere: in wastewater treatment plants, landfills, farms and local communities. Many stakeholders believe methanization offers a timely solution for treating such organic waste, while also producing energy. At IMT Atlantique, a research team is conducting studies on the viability of these facilities and the biogas they produce. As part of their applied research, they use complex tools involving several disciplines.
Stéphane Avril is a mechanical engineer, but his research focuses on the elasticity and resistance of arteries, and how this changes with disease or old age. This researcher from Mines Saint-Étienne is passionate about biology and has received a prestigious European Research Council (ERC) grant for the third time. This funding will support his next ambitious project: reversing the effects of aging on arteries by controlling mechanical wear. It represents a new phase in a journey at the interface between two disciplines.
The Di-Hydro project involves digitizing hydropower plants, to operate them as sustainably as possible and better plan maintenance. IMT, in particular Télécom SudParis, is contributing to the development of a federated platform designed to facilitate secure data-exchange and decision-making, both at the level of each individual plant and collectively.
The SUST(AI)N project aims to create connected and aware buildings with a focus on human needs. The technological blocks for this system include ubiquitous and invisible sensors powered by radio frequency signals. A Telecom SudParis team has been working on this new development for over a year.
Following her first ERC grant in 2017, Michèle Wigger has been awarded a second European grant to support her work in information theory. The Telecom Paris researcher will continue to study the fundamental limits of communication systems, but will focus her main research efforts on the theoretical side.
