We investigate the possibility of flexible and adaptive settings of data acquisition for nuclear physics experiments(gamma-ray spectroscopy). The goal is to adapt rapidly the event selection settings for up to a few hundred detectors, knowing that the configuration changes with the experimental setup and that the behaviour of the electronics changes with the experimental conditions: we need to...
The Large Hadron Collider at CERN, where the Higgs boson has been discovered, is poised for a major upgrade for possible discovery of new particles, super-symmetric particles, dark matter or signs of extra-dimensions of space. The increase in yearly number of proton collisions recorded comes at a cost of a large increase of the recorded event complexity. Preliminary studies show that...
Impact craters in planetary science are used to date and characterize planetary surfaces and study the geological history of planets. It is therefore an important task which traditionally has been achieved by means of visual inspection of images. This talk will present a currently ongoing RAMP challenge with the goal to predict the location and size of craters on Mars based on a satellite...
Recently, there is a new phenomena of fake news and alternative facts. No one deliberately and consciously desires false information but paradoxically, people pervasively consume fake information. It is essential to restore people's confidence in reliable, fact-checking sources, and reduce media bias whether perceived or real. We believe that exploring artificial intelligence technologies...
Study of turbulence using numerical tools such as Direct Numerical Simulations, Large Eddy Simulations, etc.
leads to an analysis of large amount of data to discover the underlying physical mechanisms. Estimation of a
turbulent flow using few sensor measurements is yet another important problem in fluid mechanics, which also
involves big data analysis. In this project, we analyze turbulent...
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the arterial wall caused by the formation of an atheroma plaque in the vessels wall. Data analysis of single point spectra and images led to the identification of some spectral changes due to the murine macrophages J774 enrichment with fatty acids. Data processing was held using Matlab environment and we are looking to re-process this dataset in...
The aim of (scientific) data ranking is to help users choose between alternative pieces of information especially when they are faced with huge amounts of data. However, ranking scientific data is a difficult task: various alternative quality criteria can be defined to order data items, depending on the data origin or even the way data have been obtained. As a consequence, it is very difficult...
