Design Science et PME : modernisation des systèmes d’information de Projet Point Final

Le projet en question est de type Design Science. Il éclot dans un contexte d’expansion où le système d’information (SI) de l’entreprise expose ses limites. Plus spécifiquement, son caractère manuscrit lui proscrit coordination et automatisation : coordination car l’information demeure figée sur feuille et donc inaccessible à des parties éloignées; automatisation, dans la mesure où […]

Random bin picking with industrial robot

Materials with different sizes, shapes, or materials come into the process every day, they need to be sorted, placed, and usually fed into a machine for processing. Traditionally, this task is very hard to be automated because of the non-fixed position of the part and frequent part changes. For this random bin picking project, we […]

Multivariate sequential data generator with long term, non-linear dependency

Financial data are known to be generated from complex distributions, often assumed to be changing over time. The aim of this project is to build a simulator of multivariate time series, parameterized as simply as possible by a user, with the freedom to build different models, to assess their general behavior and key properties. This […]
