What are neural networks?
Digital, In the News, What's?Neural networks are AI models designed by machine learning. They are inspired by the workings of the human brain and allow machines to carry out different tasks autonomously. Using large quantities of data as examples, they can be trained in image recognition or text analysis. Beyond their predictive performance, a number of scientific challenges still need to be resolved, concerning the understanding of their limits, reliability of their use, and their acceptability, in addition to ethical issues such as energy consumption. Stephan Clémençon, a researcher in artificial intelligence at Télécom Paris, explains more.

High-level video surveillance for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games
Digital, In the NewsSecurity methods for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games are relying on artificial intelligence, specifically algorithmic video surveillance. However, this technology poses a number of issues, particularly in terms of personal data protection. Claudine Guerrier, legal researcher at Institut Mines-Télécom Business School, tells us more about video surveillance using artificial intelligence.

The cruel dilemma of health data in the ai era: privacy or equity?
Digital, Health, In the NewsFederated 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.

BAYFLEX: green electronics for health
Digital, Health, In the News, MaterialsThe European BAYFLEX project aims to develop flexible, intelligent sensors capable of continuously collecting and processing biological signals before their on-chip classification. This ambitious project adds value by using "green" organic technologies, which require less energy to manufacture and use.
