PhD position summary/title: Doctorant F/H Apprentissage pour la prédiction du rang pour des matrices hiérarchique

Dans le contexte de la simulation de la propagation d’ondes electromanétiques, acoustiques et de calcul d’aéroacoustique, des techniques d’approximation par éléments frontières (BEM) sont couramment utilisées. Ces approches conduisent à la résolution de systèmes linéaires denses de très grande taille pour lesquels il serait impossible de former la matrice complète. Des techniques d’approximation de rang faible de certains des blocs peuvent être utilisées qui conduisent à la définition de matrices hiérachiques (H-matrix).

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Modeling brain structural and functional connectivity in neurodegenerative diseases

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].

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Towards an efficient economic orchestration of 5G and beyond networks

The evolution to a network with multiple players offering connectivity and resources across access, edge and core networks from multiple business partners introduces challenging issues about the relations between those actors and the implications on the overall operations of the network. This study is driven by technological propositions, that impact business models and interactions. A typical example is network slicing, aimed at supporting services with heterogeneous constraints, that is also an opportunity for Network Operators (NOs) to get more value out of the transport of services by being part of the content distribution value chain. Network slicing is also seen as one of the most important building blocks for network automation, as it brings more agility in the management of services. Here, an economic model needs to be associated with the technological innovation and its behavior studied in an orchestrated network.

PhD position summary/title: Doctorant F/H Algorithmique des Isogénies de Variétés Abéliennes et Cryptographie Post-Quantique

La cryptographie basée sur les isogénies a connu un développement rapide durant ces dernières années, sous l’impulsion de l’invention en 2011 de SIDH [10], un système d’échange de clé basé sur les isogénies de courbes elliptiques supersingulières. Ce cryptosystème et ses variantes ont connu un fort engouement, notamment dû au fait qu’il promettait de résister aux attaques utilisant un ordinateur quantique. Malheureusement, des travaux récents ont permis de mettre en oeuvre des attaques dévastatrices sur SIDH, le rendant de fait obsolète [3,13]. Toutefois, le mouvement créé par SIDH a permis le développement d’une boîte à outils algorithmique diversifiée pour les isogénies de courbes elliptiques et a conduit également à la découverte d’autres constructions cryptographiques telles que CSIDH [5], SQISign [7], CSI-FiSh [2], etc.

Federated learning (FL) enables a large number of IoT devices (mobiles, sensors) to cooperatively to learn a global machine learning model while keeping the devices’ data locally [MMR+17, LSTS20]. For example, Google has applied FL in their application Gboard to predict the next word the users would type on their smartphones [HRM+18]. FL can help to mitigate privacy concerns, as the raw data is kept locally by the users and never needs to be sent elsewhere. However, maintaining the data locally does not provide itself formal privacy guarantees.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Inexact optimization for the control of robots

The control of complex robots is commonly computed by numerically solving optimization problems [1,2]. These problems are often small enough (from tens to a few thousand variables) that they can be solved exactly, or with the highest numerical precision available. It would be beneficial, however, to study what precision is really needed at the different computation steps: formulation of the problem, accuracy of the solution or inner computations of the optimization. This could help perform cheaper computations, allowing faster resolution and better energy efficiency.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Leveraging Vehicular Computing to Increase Edge and Cloud computation Capabilities

A powerful approach to enhance mobile applications’ performance is enabling mobile devices to offload some of their computational-intensive workloads to the remote servers at the Edge or the Cloud. A considerable literature exists on offloading tasks on static edge servers [MKB18][KLC19][OZC18][DLQS18]. More recently, a new idea of offloading tasks to vehicles is emerging, such as in [ALEGE17][AOW+12]. But unfortunately, vehicles are assumed to be static. More recent work tackles the more challenging dynamic and stochastic case of moving vehicles [SGS+19], where offloading can only occur on vehicles. In  [ZZD15][SHC+18], consider a joint allocation strategy considering both vehicles, Edge and Cloud. However, in the former, a task is offloaded to vehicles only if it fails to be offloaded to the Edge or the Cloud. Other works explore the multi-hop capabilithttps://www.resultadda.in/wp-admin/ies of vehicular networks to allow remote nodes to access the Edge and offload their tasks [DCL20][HL20][HLW20]. We believe that the vehicles can play an essential role in absorbing the computing load on the Edge or the Cloud by allowing resource allocation closer to users with a significant reduction in energy costs for the Edge and delays.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Massively Multi-User Wireless Communications

Wireless connected devices such as smartphones, computers and TVs, autonomous cars, watches, sensors, lightbulbs and numerous sensors proliferate as our lifestyle becomes increasingly intertwined with digital services. From the point of view of communications networks, these devices give rise to a new class of data traffic, more sporadic, and for some applications requiring more stringent reliability guarantees than what classical mobile broadband can offer. In particular, the mechanisms and protocols classically used to mitigate transmission collision between randomly activated transmitters are not efficient in the new regime of many users and small payloads. A significant breakthrough was made with the introduction of the unsourced random access paradigm [P17]; one of the proposed approaches is based on the use of multi-linear spreading as a modulation, which allows convenient user separation at the receiver using tensor algebraic considerations [DLG21]. The object of the proposed study is to develop modulations and waveforms for massive multi-user wireless communications that can be applied to a wide class of propagation channels, including multipath and time-varying channels, and support asynchronous or quasi-synchronous operation.

PhD position summary/title:  PhD Position F/M Understanding and addressing within-user variability in active Brain-Computer Interfaces

Brain computer interfaces (BCI) are communication and control tools that enable their users to interact with computers by using brain activity alone, typically measured using electroencephalography (EEG). A prominent type of BCI is active BCI (aBCI), that translates change in brain activity due to mental imagery tasks performed by the user (e.g., imagination of movements or mental calculation) into control commands for a computer. Such aBCIs are very promising for various applications, e.g., for post-stroke rehabilitation, hand-free control or assistive technologies for motor impaired users. However, current aBCIs are rather unreliable, and their reliability degrades even more when used across contexts (e.g., across days, for changing users’ states or applications used) due to various sources of variabilities. Unfortunately, such variabilities are 1) often ignored in the literature, as most BCIs are assessed in a single context and 2) poorly understood. Thus, for BCIs to fulfill their promises and be used outside laboratories, we need to make them robust to such variabilities. In ANR (French National Research Agency) project PROTEUS (2023-2026) we propose to do so by 1) Systematically measuring BCI and brain signal variabilities across various contexts while sharing the collected databases; 2) Characterizing, understanding and modeling the variability and their sources based on these new databases; and 3) Tackling these variabilities by designing new machine learning algorithms optimally invariant to them according to our models, and using the resulting BCIs for two practical applications affected by variabilities: tetraplegic aBCI user training and auditory attention monitoring (passive BCI) at home or in flight. The present PhD project aims at understanding and addressing these variabilities for aBCIs in particular.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Non-smooth modelling of the interaction between granular flows and obstacles in complex 3D geometries

The PhD project aims at developing a non-smooth modelling of granular flows down an incline disturbed by singularities in complex geometries in three dimensions. This modelling aims to investigate in detail the coupling between the mean hydrodynamic behaviour of the grains’ assembly in interaction with a structure on the one hand and the discrete nature of the material at stake and the resulting fluctuations on the other hand. An increased complexity will be implemented in the modelling approach not only in terms of the granular material type considered (dry non-cohesive or cohesive) but also in term of the obstacle which disturbs the flow (fixed and rigid structure versus deformable structure). The objective is to achieve a sufficiently realistic simulation of the interaction of shallow granular flows (with a few grains across the thickness) involved in nature, like dense snow avalanches or rockfalls, in interaction with singularities: topographic accidents, fixed and rigid obstacle, deformable structure, etc.

PhD position summary/title: Doctorant F/H Algorithmique des séquences pour la reconstruction de génomes à partir de données métagénomiques complexes.

La caractérisation des communautés de micro-organismes associées à un environnement, appelées microbiotes, passe généralement par le séquençage de leur ADN dans des études métagénomiques1. Certains environnements sont plus complexes à étudier que d’autres en raison de la grande diversité microbienne qui les compose ; c’est le cas du sol ou encore du microbiote associé aux plantes2. Afin de pouvoir étudier le contenu génomique des espèces, et ainsi inférer leur fonctionnement dans l’environnement, la métagénomique plein-génome est utilisée en routine, générant des lectures dont l’assemblage peut permettre de reconstruire des génomes individuels ou MAGs (metagenome-assembled genomes)3. Cet assemblage se fait encore majoritairement à partir de lectures courtes en utilisant des graphes de de Bruijn4, permettant d’obtenir des séquences plus grandes appelées contigs. Il est très souvent complété par une étape de clustering visant à grouper les contigs qui proviennent d’une même espèce (binning), notamment en utilisant des critères de fréquence tétra-nucléotidique et d’abondance des contigs, afin de former les MAGs.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Optimization of resources placement in Fog-based IoT systems based on latency analysis

The Fog computing is a recent paradigm that address such issues by provisioning resources outside the cloud and closer to the end-device, at the edge of the network. This allows to reduce the latency and minimize the traffic between end-user and the cloud plat-form [3]. Several studies have shown that fog systems can indeed reduce the latency compared to cloud systems, but this reduction is not guaranteed and will highly depend on the components placement, leading sometimes to worse performance [8]. It has been also demonstrated that less traffic is sent to the cloud when using fog systems. However, a lack of a proper monitoring or reconfiguration mechanism in the fog exists, especially when the application is related to the IoT [7], where the cloud infrastructure is known not to be a viable solution.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Elucidating conformational dynamics of protein-RNA complexes

The main goal of this PhD project is to elucidate the conformational dynamics of protein-RNA complexes and to develop a method for understanding their allosteric communications. To achieve this objective, the candidate will develop a deep learning model to predict communication pathways. They will investigate several facets of the algorithms and ultimately provide this application to the broad scientific community. The proposed deep learning model will be set up to address the characterization of dynamic properties of protein-RNA interactions at the 3D level. This approach is a prerequisite for the design of new therapeutics that target protein-RNA complexes.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Next-Best-View Planning for 3D Reconstruction with Cooperative Multi-UAV Systems

The selected candidate will join the INRIA Chroma team (https://team.inria.fr/chroma/) at CITI-lab INRIA/INSA Lyon, and work under the supervision of Alessandro Renzaglia and Olivier Simonin. The overall objective of the Chroma group is to address fundamental and open issues that lie at the intersection of “Human-Centered Robotics” and “Multi-Robot Systems”. Our goal is to design algorithms and develop models allowing mobile robots to navigate and operate in complex and dynamic environments. Within this context, an important line of research focuses on online planning for cooperative systems and in particular for fleets of aerial robots. Our approach for addressing this challenge is to bring together probabilistic methods, planning techniques and multi-agent decision models.

PhD position summary/title: Doctorant F/H [DOCT2023-KAIROS] Reconnaissance de programmes par réseaux de neurones

Un résultat fondamental en informatique (calculabilité) nous affirme que des problèmes indécidables existent, c’est-à-dire pour lesquels il n’existe aucun algorithme qui soit capable d’en fournir une solution. Cela n’est pas une bonne nouvelle fondamentale, car cela prouve qu’il existe des problèmes de calculs qui ne peuvent pas être résolus par une méthode automatique.

PhD position summary/title: Doctorant F/H Accélération du produit matrice-vecteur par la méthode multipolaire rapide pour des clusters de machines hétérogènes

La méthode multipolaire rapide (fast multipole method, FMM) est une technique mathématique hiérarchique développée pour accélérer le calcul des forces de longue portée dans le problème à N-corps réduisant la complexité de quadratique à linénaire. D’un point de vue algébrique, elle peut être vue comme produit matrice-vecteur (MV) où la matrice est découpée hiérarchiquement en sous-matrices. Contrairement à un calcul complètement algèbrique, les sous-matrices sont traitées analytiquement, via l’expansion de la fonction de Green du système par une expansion multipolaire, le groupement des sources voisines permettant de les traiter comme une source unique.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M MAIIL – AI-driven character simulation based on Multi-Agents Interaction Imitation Learning

Simulation of autonomous entities capable of collaborating or competing with real humans, as real other humans would in the same situation, is still a scientific and technological challenge. This is especially a complex problem when dealing with fullbody interaction between simulated and real entities, as it involves complex spatiotemporal constraints at different timing scales (continuous motion and sequence of actions), with a high-dimension research space (associated with the characters’ degrees of freedom). Let us consider several characters, real and simulated humans, that have to collaborate to manipulate a digital mockup. Another interesting example is the coordination of (simulated and real) humans to compete against another team. In both cases, the simulated entities should behave to help or compete with real humans, as other real humans would in this situation, in a long-term close collaboration/competition. Hence, the problem is not to find an optimal solution to efficiently achieve the task, but act as expected by the participants, finding suboptimal but realistic solution.

PhD position summary/title: PhD Position F/M Creating socially reactive virtual characters for enhanced social interactions in Virtual Reality

Creating compelling immersive situations requires to deal with several important elements. Amongst these, simulating and displaying convincing virtual humans naturally interacting with users is crucial to replicate real-life situations and foster collaboration, due to the importance of interpersonal interactions in our everyday life. In the last decade, great advances have been seen in the quality of such virtual characters, such as in terms of appearance (e.g. Metahuman characters) or the ability to control characters in game-like situations (e.g., Motion Matching [But15]). However, when it comes to interactions with users, such virtual characters typically only display limited, and often scripted, behaviours. For instance, virtual pedestrians are typically steered to avoid other characters and users using crowd simulation methods (e.g RVO [VLM08]), but will not react appropriately if users suddenly startle them, intrude their personal space, or act inappropriately.
