Mathematics is back in the 2021 list of Forbes 30 Under 30- Europe, with the nomination of Amaury Hayat, a researcher trained at École Polytechnique, who studies the application of mathematics in the environmental field and artificial intelligence to contribute to future great discoveries.
Can video games help to empower people with autistic disorders and be a social connector? Tifanie Bouchara, Fabienne Cazalis, Benjamin Misiak and Pierre Escaich contributed their views and expertise on the issue of neurodiversity at the second annual conference of the "Science and Video Games" Chair.
Hanabi, a board game where players must cooperate to share incomplete information, is considered the new challenge for artificial intelligence. Antoine Bauza, Vicky Kalogeiton and Pierre Beri discussed this board game during the "Science and Video Games" Chair conference.
Is the realism of physical systems achievable in video games? This was the question discussed by David Louapre and Florence Bertails-Descoubes at the annual conference of the "Science and Video Games" Chair. They explain the compromises made in the name of player immersion and the current obstacles to game realism.
The "EconophysiX" Chair opens the 2021 call for applications for the "CFM Woman in quantitative finance" thesis scholarship. This initiative encourages outstanding research during a three-year academic project and aims to give visibility to women in a field where they are underrepresented.
The "Science and Video Games" Chair organises an annual symposium bringing together researchers and video game manufacturers in order to strengthen their interactions. For its second edition, the conference addressed the modelling of physical phenomena, the current challenges in AI or the game as a tool for inclusiveness.
The functioning of an enzyme, which could be used to produce biofuels and for green chemistry, has been deciphered. This result has mobilized an international team of scientists with an important contribution from the Laboratory of Optics and Biosciences. This discovery is published in Science on April 9, 2021.
An influential European learned society in the field of signal processing, EURASIP has awarded its 2020 Technical Achievement Prize to Éric Moulines, professor at the Centre for Applied Mathematics, for his major contributions in statistical inference, in particular on hidden Markov chains and non-linear filtering.
An overview of research papers from researchers of the Institut Polytechnique de Paris and other institutions a year after the first lockdown imposed in France and many other countries to fight the Covid-19 pandemic.
Thanks to their expertise in cell micromanipulation, Julien Husson and his team were able to demonstrate that the mechanical properties of white blood cells change when they come into contact with pathogens. These changes in viscosity and rigidity are thought to play a role in their mobility and interaction with their targets.
The "Econophysics & Complex systems" Chair awards for the first time its "CFM Women in Quantitative Finance" PhD scholarship to Cécilia Aubrun so that she can carry out her research on endogenous liquidity crises. This scholarship encourages research excellence and gives visibility to young woman researchers in this field.
How to reproduce the human, emotional perception of an image? This is the issue addressed by Maks Ovsjanikov, professor at the Computer Science Laboratory at X and his colleagues at Stanford and KAUST. They created the ArtEmis project to allow algorithms to learn how to reproduce human emotions when faced with artworks.
Studying air pollution using miniature sensors: a research team from the Laboratory of Interface and Thin Film Physics has shown that they are capable of detecting very low concentrations of nitrogen dioxide. Their work, funded by the André Citroën Chair, has been published in Nanoscale Advances.
Study the morphology of space plasma jets or the properties of exoplanets? Spatial phenomena - which are inaccessible to experimentation - are reproduced on a small scale at LULI and allow us to refine the theories on these distant objects. Two studies were published in the scientific journal Nature Communications this month.
Could salt caverns - already used to store natural gas - become the hydrogen reserves of the future? This is the question that Pierre Bérest, Emeritus Professor at École Polytechnique in the Solid Mechanics Laboratory, is working on.
