Efficient Computational Strategies for Calculating Orbital Energies Using pCCD-Based Methods

This project focuses on advancing computational methods for predicting ionization potentials (IPs) and electron affinities (EAs) of organic molecules, with a specific application to organic solar cells (OSCs). By leveraging Koopmans’ theorem within the orbital-optimized pair-coupled cluster doubles (oo-pCCD) framework, the project aims to efficiently compute these key electronic properties without costly gradient calculations. A […]

Metabolomic profile of pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms

This research project aims to develop an innovative blood test for earlier detection of an important subtype of lung tumors, known as neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs). Unfortunately, these tumors are too often diagnosed late and are difficult to treat. Our approach is to exploit a specific characteristic of neoplasms: tumor cells adapt the way they generate […]

Amélioration de la classification des arbres tropicaux à partir d’images prises par drone grâce à la fusion d’entrées multimodales

Les forêts tropicales sont de plus en plus menacées par la déforestation, les incendies et les perturbations climatiques. Afin de surveiller la biodiversité et de prévoir les tendances spécifiques à chaque espèce, les chercheurs ont commencé à utiliser des technologies aériennes sans pilote (i.e. drones) pour identifier les espèces et cartographier la forêt. Cependant, les […]
