PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Fast solvers for studying light absorption by nanostructured imagers

The exploitation of nanostructuring in order to improve the performance of CMOS imagers based on microlens grids is a very promising avenue. In this perspective, numerical modeling is a key component to accurately characterize and optimize the absorption properties of these complex imaging structures which are intrinsically multiscale (from the micrometer scale of the lenses to the nanometric characteristics of the nanostructured material layers). The present PhD project is proposed in the context of a collaboration between the Atlantis project-team of Inria research center at Université Côte d’Azur and STMicrolectronics (CMOS Imagers division of the Technology for Optical Sensors department) in Crolles. A Cifre funding will support this project. The objectives of the project are to design (1) a fast electromagnetic simulation approach based on a model reduction technique, to characterize numerically the light trapping in digital imagers exploiting nanostructured pixels and, (2) a multi-objective optimization strategy of the geometrical characteristics of the nanostructuring in order to simultaneously maximize the light absorption in a pixel and to minimize the crosstalk phenomenon between neighboring pixels. For the first time, in addition to the rigorous methods for solving Maxwell’s equations, we will be able to benefit from an alternative simulation approach based on model reduction. This new approach can be used in an optimization process and the expected gain in total computation time would be between 10 to 1000.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Machine learning for extreme weather forecasting

Extreme weather events, such as heat waves and extreme storms, can have outsized impacts on society, especially considering the resulting hazards, such as drought, wildfire, and flooding. Machine learning can help to improve the forecasting of such extreme events, which will be critical in helping communities adapt to a changing climate. The current practice of weather forecasting is primarily based on numerical weather prediction (NWP) which involves physics-driven simulations running on supercomputers. Running these NWP models is quite computationally expensive, and thus the forecasts are not updated in real-time. There’s currently a race among researchers in the tech industry to outperform NWP at weather forecasting, by training deep learning models on reanalysis data products (e.g. ERA5). After training (which requires significant GPU compute time), these data-driven models output forecasts much faster than standard NWP. While these data-driven models generally outperform NWP on average forecasts, they are not explicitly trained to forecast extreme events, and thus they tend to under-predict them.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M PhD proposal – Modeling and Calibration of Crowd Behaviors in Public Spaces

At all these stages, crowd simulation is a useful technology for predicting crowd behaviour in existing venues or those under development, supporting the analysis of a situation as it unfolds, and providing scenarios for how a given situation might evolve. However, this technology is still not widely used in practice. One of the main reasons for this is the complexity involved in configuring a simulator to a specific situation, but also the actual ability to reflect crowd behaviour, which is highly dependent on the nature of the event and the facilities hosting it. The aim of this thesis is to extend the use of crowd simulators to the management of mass events by tackling these two stumbling blocks: the domain of validity and the automatic parameterisation of a simulation. The subject lies at the interface between image analysis techniques for gathering information on the situation and behaviour of a crowd, and the statistical modelling of their behaviour.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Next generation of development environments

Domain-Specific Languages (DSL) are now omnipresent in the industry and academy. Engineers and scientists are domain experts that handle DSLs to perform task specific to their job. In some way, DSLs are interfaces, at the good level of abstraction, that stand between domain experts and their engineering problems. Concretely, domain experts use DSLs through dedicated environments (IDE – Integrated Development Environment). In such environments, experts handle DSL models using standard interactive features (e.g. auto-completion, templating, error checking, navigation) and using the concrete syntax of the DSL, that can take various forms (e.g. graphical, textual, tabular). Experts use numerous DSLs broadly used in the industry, sometimes without knowing that they handle a DSL. For example, conceiving an air plane usually involves electricity, resistance, scientific computing schemas/models, that follow a specific nomenclature (i.e. the DSL grammar), with a specific representation (i.e. the DSL concrete syntax), with editing environments. Similarly, for conceiving a Web application experts may handle Docker, Git-Lab CI (continuous integration), ANTLR (grammar definition), CSS (style definition), Kubernetes (container orchestration) models/configuration files. All these languages are DSLs that experts use for completing a specific task. If a DSL works by itself, its use may impact other DSL models. For example, an electrician engineer that apply changes on his DSL models may have impacts on DSL models of other experts, such as on heating models. Each of those experts brings their own viewpoint, based on their expertise, for solving the global challenge, developping the system. This phenomenon is known as collective intelligence [1]. Current IDEs hardly support such collective intelligence as it requires novel features to share, communicate, explore, synchronize experts works. Moreover, Such features and the way they are used within a IDE depend on the experts domain. Langage engineers, that develop IDEs specifically for DSLs, thus struggle in coding by hand such complex features.

The amount of data observed from the world is growing exponentially, reaching 64.2 zettabytes in 2020. To meet the continuously growing demand for computing resources to store and process Big Data, large cloud providers have equipped their infrastructures with millions of energy hungry servers distributed on multiple physically separate data-centers. This results in a tremendous increase in the energy consumed to operate these data-centers. However, as the data and the scale of data-centers are on the rise, energy consumption will continue to be a major concern in the Cloud. Thus, it is important to make data management in the cloud energy-efficient.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Dolev-Yao model-guided fuzzing of cryptographic protocols

The goal of this PhD thesis is to contribute to the DY Fuzzing project. This project proposes a novel and effective technique that we call Dolev Yao (DY) model-guided fuzzing, which precludes logical attacks against protocol implementations. The main idea is to consider as possible test cases the set of abstract DY executions of the DY attacker, and use a mutation-based fuzzer to explore this set. A first description of these ideas and a prototype implementatyion of a DY fuzzer are given in [1]. This first paper paves the way for a large number of follow-up works: plugging the fuzzer of different TLS implementations, designing a fuzzer for other protocols (e.g. DTLS, QUIC, WPA, …), designing better metrics to guide the fuzzer among others.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Trustworthy AI hardware architectures

The direct consequence is the intense activity in designing custom and embedded Artificial Intelligence HardWare architectures (AI-HW) to support energy-intensive data movement, speed of computation, and large memory resources that AI requires to achieve its full potential. Moreover, explaining AI decisions, referred to as eXplainable AI (XAI), is highly desirable in order to increase the trust and transparency in AI, safely use AI in the context of critical applications, and further expand AI application areas. Nowadays, XAI has become an area of intense interest. AI-HW, similar to traditional computing hardware, is subject to faults that can have several sources: variability in fabrication process parameters, latent defects or even environmental stress. One of the overlooked aspects is the role that HW faults can have in AI decisions. Indeed, there is a common belief that AI applications have an intrinsic high-level or resilience w.r.t. errors and noise. However, recent studies in the scientific literature have shown that AI-HW is not always immune to HW errors. This can jeopardize all the effort of having an explainable AI, leading any attempt to explainability to be either inconclusive or misleading. In other words, AI algorithms retain their accuracy and explainability property under the condition that the hardware wherein they are executed is fault-free.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Experimental evaluation of sliced cellular networks

The overall objective of the DIANA project-team is to design, implement and evaluate advanced networking architectures. To do so, the team works to provide service transparency and programmable network deployments in the context of both wired and next generation wireless cellular networks. The team’s methodology includes advanced measurement techniques, design and implementation of architectural solutions, and their validation in adequate experimental facilities. The DIANA team designed, deployed and operates R2lab, a wireless testbed designed with reproducibility as its central characteristics. The team collaborates with Eurecom to deploy and operate an open programmable platform to test post-5G services. Recently, the team enriched R2lab with 5G professional radio units and compute resources managed by Kubernetes clusters to provide an experimental cloud-native environment to test with open source (OAI, SrsLTE) software and some commercially licensed software (e.g. Amarisoft) for 5G/6G networks supporting for example scenarios with disaggregated 5G networks elements. Other recent contributions of the team include: Enhanced Transport-Layer Mechanisms for Multi-Access Edge Computing-Assisted Cellular Networks, Bencharmking Mobile Networks from the Viewpoint of Video Streaming QoE, Introducing Fidelity in Network Emulation, and Enhanced Ray Tracing Techniques for Accurate Estimation of Signal Power.
