Les femmes dans l’entrepreneuriat numérique. Logiques et modalités d’une féminisation « empêchée »

Tel qu’il a émergé dans la Silicon Valley autour du modèle de la « start-up », le monde de l’entrepreneuriat numérique s’est fondé sur des valeurs d’ouverture, d’inclusion et de liberté, laissant imaginer le respect d’une égalité professionnelle. Pourtant, alors que l’écosystème des start-up québécois est en pleine expansion, les femmes ne représentent que 15 […]

Empowering Communities to Preserve their Heritage

The proposed research project aims to address the issue of language endangerment and mother tongue education through a “citizen science” methodology in the remote Zangskar valley (Ladakh, India). In particular, the project seeks to test whether a citizen science approach can be an effective and sustainable way of documenting and revitalizing the endangered Zangskari language. […]

Topological band structure in synthetic dimensions

Emulating topological phases of matter in photonic systems appears particularly promising for engineering new generations of quantum devices more resilient to noise or external perturbations. Indeed, the great versatility of these platforms could allow developing specific architectures that have no counterparts in condensed matter. The goal of this project is to experimentally explore the fundamental […]

Improving Modern Code Review Practices through Gamification

Modern code review (MCR) is broadly adopted as an established and effective software quality assurance practice, with an increasing number of open-source as well as commercial software projects that adopt code review as a crucial practice. The MCR process is most effective when developers follow best practices, such as efficient, collaborative and timely review discussions […]

In–?PlaceTechnologyPlatform

The In-Place Technology Platform project with N. Chandolias and Alkemie Atelier, under the supervision of Dr P. Shrivastava addresses the problem of how people in everyday as well as rehearsed situations can use site-specific media to enrich public spaces: “place-making.” Alkemie will be able to develop specific projects for artist groups that can co-design meaningful […]

Risk-Aware Decision Support Systems for Critical Infrastructure Protection and Territorial Security

Robotic sensor networks (RSN) are increasingly applied to Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP). In such an application, a RSN is deployed to safe-guard some critical infrastructure (e.g., building, pipeline, etc.) in a secure and reliable fashion. By actively considering risk as a major driving force, this project aims at deciding on the optimal configuration of an […]

Large-scale transformers for probabilistic time series forecasting

Making future projections about quantities of interest is a key component of decision-making, which has broad applications. For instance, in healthcare, one may be interested in monitoring the severity level of a disease given a treatment plan, while carefully accounting for potential sources of uncertainty. Alternatively, one may be interested in predicting the occupancy level […]

Fairness Attacks on Large Language Models

Under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), businesses using customer data to make decisions must provide explanations in human terms on demand to the customer to explain their decision. The rise of natural language generation (NLG) and chain-of-thoughts (CoT) represents an opportunity to combine the power of deep learning, automated decision-making, and explainable AI. […]
