François Charton (PhD student at CERMICS and research engineer at Meta) and Amaury Hayat‘s (researcher at CERMICS) work was featured in the New Scientist. In collaboration with Alberto Alfarano (research engineer at Meta), their work consist in training deep language models to find global Lyapunov function for systems of ordinary differential equations, a mathematical problem open in general.
The CIRCLES project received the IEEE ITS Lead Institutional award 2024, for “significant and outstanding contributions to the research and applications of ITS-related technologies”. This project was a collaboration between several institutions including Ecole nationale des Ponts et Chaussées, UC Berkeley, Rutgers University, Vanderbilt University and Temple University. The aim of the project is to reduce congestion and energy consumption… Read more »

The Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation (IMSI), located on the campus of the University of Chicago, hosts a program on “Data-Driven Materials Informatics” from March 4th to May 24th. Materials informatics is an emerging field defined by the use of simulation tools combined with methods from data sciences and machine learning to better understand materials properties and design innovative… Read more »
This prize, aimed at under-30s, is awarded for the best paper presented at the EFI9 conference held in Bari from 12 to 14 February. The prize-winning work concerns the joint modelling of temperature and the price of electricity, in order to better understand and manage the risk associated with climate insurance products. It stems from a CIFRE thesis with AXA… Read more »
Gaspard Kemlin was a PhD student at CERMICS from September 2019 to November 2022, and defended his PhD in December 2022. He worked on Numerical analysis for Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory. He now is an associate professor at Picardie Jules Verne University.
Loucas Pillaud-Vivien joined the Applied Probability team at CERMICS on January the 2nd 2024. His research focuses on understanding the high-dimensional stochastic dynamics underlying the optimization procedures inherent to modern machine learning algorithms. He obtained his PhD at ENS/Inria Paris in 2020 under the supervision of Francis Bach and did his postdoctoral work at EPFL with Nicolas Flammarion, and then… Read more »
