Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M privacy preserving federated learning with applications in medical domains
This post-doctoral position will be supported by the HE Trumpet project, the HE Flute project and/or the PEPR IA Redeem project. While this position will be in the MAGNET team in Lille, we will collaborate with the several European project partners.
While AI techniques are becoming ever more powerful, there is a growing concern about potential risks and abuses. As a result, there has been an increasing interest in research directions such as privacy-preserving machine learning, explainable machine learning, fairness and data protection legislation.
Privacy-preserving machine learning aims at learning (and publishing or applying) a model from data while the data is not revealed. Notions such as (local) differential privacy and its generalizations allow to bound the amount of information revealed.
The MAGNET team is involved inthe related TRUMPET, FLUTE and REDEEM projects, and is looking for team members who can in close collaboration with other team members and national & international partners contribute to one or more of these projects. All of these projects aim at researching and prototyping algoirhtms for secure, privacy-preserving federated learning in settings with potentially malicious participants. The TRUMPET and FLUTE projects focus on applications in the field of oncology, while the REDEEM project has no a priori fixed application domain.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Inference of a demo-genetic model for sustainable plant resistance
Crop protection often remains dependent on chemical pesticides, which are both harmful for the environment and human health. Resistant crops are an agroecological alternative to pesticides, but their extensive use may lead to the emergence/selection of virulent pathogens and resistance breakdown. Devising deployment strategies of resistant crops that are both efficient, i.e. that reduce crop damages, and durable, i.e. that limit the virulent pathogen populations, is hence a major issue.
The postdoctoral fellow will tackle this issue by means of a demo-genetic model, tailored for a specific pathosystem, the phoma stem canker of oilseed rape caused by fungus Leptosphaeria maculans. The emergence and development of virulent pathogens may vary according to the genetic determinisms of virulence (molecular mechanisms responsible for the transition to virulence, epistatic interactions, fitness costs), which are studied by other partners of the ENDURANCE project.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Postdoctoral Position – Neural correlates of social interaction and its impact on performance in middle childhood
Social interaction among children is crucial for the proper development of social and cognitive skills, as well as for proper brain development. However, the topic of how children acquire the ability to form social bonds with their peers remains understudied and therefore poorly understood. One possibility for exploring this question is to simultaneously measure the brain activity of two children during social interaction, a technique that is called hyperscanning. The inter-brain synchrony data elicited in this way can then be related to data on children’s embodied interaction with one another, data on the strength of their social bonds, and data on their performance on a collaborative task. Analyzing and interpreting the results of these experiments,,using newer machine learning approaches, will be the job of the research engineers and postdocs hired for this position.

Within the framework of a large international project on adaptive personality in conversational agents,, Inria is responsible for investigating the impact of interpersonal factors on the display of personality, in people and in conversational agents that interact with people. This involves collecting a corpus of dialogues by groups of 4 people, whose personality traits will have been assessed, and who will work on a series of 3 tasks. (to match the corpora collected in other languages). The corpus will then be annotated and analyzed for the impact of various psychological, linguistic, and interpersonal factors such as the strength of social bonds among the interactants, the personality traits of the different members of the group, the nature of the task, and so forth, on the verbal and nonverbal display of personality. Results will then be applied to the implementation of embodied conversational agents that represent the results, and the agents will be tested in interaction with people to assess the impact of “interpersonality” on the success of human-machine interaction.

In an IDN, models could be jointly trained on local datasets using federated learning algorithms [KMA+21]. We will study how the selected inference delivery strategy may require changes to such algorithms to consider the statistical heterogeneity induced by the delivery strategy itself. For example,
nodes with more sophisticated models will receive inference requests for difficult samples from nodes with simpler and less accurate models, leading to a change in the data distribution seen at inference with respect to that of the local dataset. Some preliminary results about the training for early-exit
networks in this context are in [KSR+24].

(20) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctorant F/H Vérification formelle et caractérisation expérimentale pour la sécurité matérielle
La vérification formelle est un outil puissant pour attester la fonctionnalité des logiciels et des composants, et elle peut également être employée pour garantir formellement la sécurité d’un logiciel. Cette approche est aujourd’hui essentielle pour les produits nécessitant un niveau élevé de sécurité. Cependant, son application à la vérification des propriétés de sécurité des composants matériels en est encore à ses débuts.
Dans le cadre d’un partenariat entre Inria (équipe-projet PACAP et Laboratoire Haute Sécurité), l’ANSSI, le CEA, l’École des Mines de Saint-Étienne, le Laboratoire d’Informatique de Paris 6, SAFRAN, et THALES, le projet FORWARD vise à contribuer aux futurs standards d’évaluation de la sécurité des composants en faisant progresser les méthodes d’analyse, notamment utilisant de la vérification formelle, appliquées aux mécanismes de protection matériels (potentiellement assistés avec du logiciel) contre les attaques par injection de fautes. Pour atteindre cet objectif, le projet comprend une phase d’amélioration des outils existants d’analyse de contre-mesures pour leur permettre d’intégrer des modèles de fautes plus complexes mais également d’analyser un système sécurisé avec une combinaison de plusieurs contre-mesures.
En particulier, l’un des volets porte sur la recherche de chemins d’attaque par injection de fautes multiples. Les contremesures sélectionnées affecteront les modèles de fautes et d’attaquant qu’il faudra supporter en améliorant un outil précédemment développé dans l’équipe. Cet outil se limite actuellement à de l’analyse statique sur le flot de contrôle et donc au niveau instruction. L’impact sur le flot de données devra être intégré afin de modéliser comment la corruption de données interagit avec le flot d’exécution du programme et ainsi mieux explorer les possibilités des attaquants. Ceci se fera par une analyse potentiellement hybride pour permettre le passage à l’échelle tout en considérant des fautes multiples. Ces travaux de recherches pourront aussi prendre en compte de nouveaux modèles de fautes propres aux partenaires du projet.
Ce poste prévoit des déplacements pour assister aux réunions périodiques du projet ainsi que pour des sessions de travail ponctuelles entre partenaires. Les frais de déplacements seront pris en charge dans la limite du barème en vigueur.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctorant F/H Postdoc Améliorer la frugalité et la robustesse d’un modèle de langage pour les textes médicaux en français
En nous appuyant sur l’expertise de l’équipe Soda en matière d’IA robuste et frugale, nous participons à la création d’un modèle de base qui est robuste face à un nouveau vocabulaire (que ce soit de nouveaux concepts médicaux apparaissant à l’avenir, ou des fautes d’orthographe ou des abréviations utilisées dans les textes médicaux), et frugal. Le postdoc recruté, Joel Mba Kouhoue travaillera sur la distillation de modèles, afin d’obtenir un modèle (dit “étudiant”) plus économe en ressources de calcul que le modèle originel (dit “enseignant”). Plusieurs architectures et catégories de modèles seront envisagées pour le modèle étudiant : modèles “encoder-only” de type BERT, en particulier pour les tâches de détection d’entités et d’annotations de documents, avec une comparaison avec des modèles génératifs sur ces tâches, et modèles “encoder-decoder” pour des tâches nécessitant un modèle génératif, comme le résumé, la génération d’exercices pour la formation des personnels soignants. L’ensemble des résultats de ces expériences sera publié et partagé en open-source.
Le travail consistera d’une part à distiller des gros modèles “enseignants” existants en utilisant pour la distillation des corpus proches de ceux applicatifs (et donc avec un vocabulaire médical), d’autre part à affiner et valider ces modèles sur des tâches proxis, telles que de l’extraction d’entitées nomées. L’étude fera varier le choix du modèle enseignant (en faisant attention au choix de licence compatible avec nos objectifs d’open source), cherchera le meilleur corpus (y compris en utilisant de l’augmentation de données) et mesurera les compromis taille de modèle / performance sur les tâches proxis.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Network-based biomarker discovery of neurodegenerative diseases using multimodal connectivity
The neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD) disease are the consequences of pathological processes that begin decades before the onset of the typical clinical symptoms [1][2]. However, current diagnosis comes quite late in the course of the disease, while evidences underline the multiple benefits that would be associated with earlier diagnosis [3]. An outstanding challenge for clinical neurosciences is therefore to provide reliable, non-invasive, affordable and easy-to-track biomarkers able to improve both the early detection and the monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases, that can be applied at an individual level. It is well acknowledged that AD and PD display a progressive multifactorial disruption of cerebral networks, all along the course of the diseases, which is highly related to the clinical phenotype [4].
In the search for those biomarkers, the introduction of non-invasive imaging techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), prompted important discoveries to provide a comprehensive map of neural connections, known as the connectome. The field of network science for analyzing the connectome offers new insights into networks disruptions that are characteristic of specific brain disorders [5]. Mathematical modelling using graph theory, which appeared in neuroimaging at the beginning of this century, provides powerful quantitative tools and measures for the analysis of complex cerebral networks [6][7]. Undirected brain connectivity has been classified in two categories: (i) structural connectivity estimated by DWI, where links represent axons or neuronal fiber density or (ii) functional connectivity (measured for instance with fMRI) where links represent statistical dependencies between brain signals from different areas, such as correlations, coherence, or transfer entropy. However, prior studies have largely focused on the comparison between patients suffering from AD or PD versus healthy subjects. As a result, the relevance of the reported alterations in brain network may be limited due to a lack of specificity. Indeed, the extracted features that are sensitive to AD or PD may well reflect common neurodegenerative processes, therefore lacking specificity for the disease-related physiopathology at the individual level. Integrating simultaneously these modalities could yield a powerful tool, to expand the knowledge of our brain and to exhibit robust biomarkers of AD and PD, more sensitive to pathophysiological changes.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctorant F/H Mathematical analysis of metastable processes
The source of many phenomena in physical and life sciences, and in most engineering disciplines, is to be found in microscopic features of the system under consideration. Linking the properties of matter at these different scales is a major challenge, both from the theoretical perspective (understanding how to link a model or an equation at a certain scale to another one at a different scale) and the numerical one (how to couple two consistent descriptions of matter, e.g. atomistic and continuum, using the same code).
MATHERIALS originally focused on computational chemistry issues (electronic structure calculations for materials, laser control of chemical reactions) before gradually widening its scope beyond such considerations and their applications, and applying its expertise to related topics at very different scales. This has led to studies in molecular dynamics (in situ molecular system evolution), in computational statistical mechanics (computation of ensemble averages), and studies of relationships with more traditional mechanical models at the continuum scale and multiscale simulation of fluid or solid materials in general (including periodic and random homogenization).
MATHERIALS currently offers a range of expertise, rarely found on the international scene, in a number of promising topics for numerical simulation and applied mathematics in general: molecular chemistry, solid-state physics, numerical modeling in materials science, etc.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Drone-based adapted agricultural data collection in rural environment.
This project aims to investigate a new generation of data collection, combining intelligent wireless sensors and aerial means, and test this approach in agriculture, in particular in the test farm of INRAe in Auvergne. The main objective is to use unmanned aerial vehicles (commonly called “drone”) as data mules to collect data from connected objects on the ground, in natural environments. This aerial solution will facilitate collections in hard-to-access natural environments, which can also suffer from signal attenuation with traditional communication networks. In this context, drones offer a large geographical zone of intervention, and are easier to deploy than land-based mobile vectors (e.g. ground vehicles). Compared to traditional sensor networks, this approach greatly lightens the hardware infrastructure to deploy, by avoiding the installation of numerous gateways to route information from the sensor nodes; gateways are expensive, energy intensive and require regular maintenance, which is incompatible with their presence in an uneasily accessible natural environment.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Post-Doctoral Research Visit F/M Model placement in inference delivery networks
In this postdoc, we will study the problem of AI model placement in an IDN. This is a challenging optimization problem that involves a non-trivial tradeoff between model effectiveness, inference latency, and resource availability while also dealing with the natural dynamicity of the network, e.g., due to users’ request process or changes in available computing and communication resources.
We will also consider other metrics, such as energy consumption, in the objective functions and networking constraints for systems where the network presents some inelasticity (see also [1]). We will leverage multi-objective optimization techniques (e.g., Pareto efficient solutions) and transfer learning techniques to adapt models across nodes with different levels of knowledge and resource availability. We will also rely on online learning approaches to achieve model placements with adversarial guarantees regarding regret.
In comparison to our preliminary work in [2] or [3], we will allow models to be split across multiple nodes [4,5,6]. In particular, we aim to compare specific model splitting techniques, with or without the insertion of bottlenecks [7,8] (reference [8] is also the result of NEO-AIRL cooperation), in terms of performance metrics like inference delay and network load. We will evaluate different methodologies to estimate online the quality of an inference [9].

The project combines a comprehensive knowledge graph hub (MetaKH) with advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques.
The main objectives of the project are to enhance the accessibility and querying of metabolomics data, improve research efficiency, and foster innovation in the field. The project aspires to go beyond current standards by developing an evolving encyclopedic knowledge base, integrating advanced AI approaches to handle experimental data uncertainties, and facilitating the exploration and evaluation of a broader range of hypotheses.
Within this framework, we will focus on developing innovative methodologies and tools, such as graph exploration methods, to improve data interaction, analytical capabilities, and uncertainty representation. A key challenge of metabolomics data (and thus MetaKH) lies in its incompleteness, variable reliability, and inherent uncertainty. AI will be leveraged to enhance the completeness and reliability of the knowledge graph while effectively addressing these uncertainties.
This postdoctoral position is specifically part of WP3.4, which aims to develop an AI-powered research assistant for MetaKH. It builds on recent advances in generative AI, natural language understanding, and knowledge graph integration. An initial version of this assistant has been designed and developed as an intuitive chatbot, facilitating researchers’ interaction with metabolomics data and the MetaKH knowledge graph. This chatbot enables users to query the graph in natural language and refine their searches incrementally.
