I am Full Professor of computer science at Université Paris Cité (France), UFR Mathématiques et Informatique, and researcher at the LIPADE laboratory, SIP team. I lead scientific projects in AI on pattern recognition, image analysis and computer vision. More precisely, I am interested in the underlying problems related to image representations, with visual, semantic and perceptual aspects. Our research team works on academic projects with state-of-the-art approaches (image segmentation, classification, retrieval, understanding), in thematic areas such as remote sensing, medical or document imaging, or on industrial R&D projects (e.g. CIFRE PhD thesis) with shorter-term methodological contributions. As lecturer, I teach computer sciences (programming, algorithms, artificial vision, image analysis, pattern recognition, etc.) in higher education at different levels (LMD) and I am co-responsible of a Master track about computer vision and intelligent systems.

Projects

I am involved (and I have been involved) in different research projects related to AI, pattern recognition and computer vision:

Ongoing projects

ANR GEO ReSeT (2023-2027)

Involvement : Member (25%)

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche, programme TSIA

Generalized Earth Observation with Remote Sensing and Text.This research proposal aims to develop a versatile foundation model for geo-spatial data that can beused for any task and with any data modality. By using location on the Earth's surface as the commonlink between different modalities, the model will be able to incorporate a variety of data sources,including remote sensing imagery, textual descriptions of places, and features in maps. Through self-supervised learning methods such as contrastive learning or multi-modal masked autoencoders, themodel will leverage the large amounts of unlabeled geo-spatial data from these different sources tolearn a better representation of any geo-spatial location and convey a semantic representation of theinformation.

ANR TAMMI (2022-2025)

Involvement : Member

Funding : ANR JCJC (PI: Sylvain Lobry)

Remote sensing images, produced in large quantities, contain information that is already used to monitor climate change, improve security and understand the environment. However, these data are difficult to interpret and often involve manual processing. With the increase in the amount of data, interpretation becomes a limiting factor for the deadlines, but also for the fields in which these can be used. While the data is there, a large audience cannot take advantage of it. As part of the TAMMI project (Text And MultiModal Imagery), our objectives are to facilitate access to the information contained in multimodal data. We propose to use natural language as a way to extract information. For this, we will study shared representations and robustness to missing data. New methods will be proposed to improve the interpretability of predictions made from texts and multimodal data.

AI-COLOPREDICT (2021-2023)

Involvement : Co-Principal Investigator

Funding : INCA - PRTK

The AI-COLOPREDICT project is part of the field of digital pathology, which consists of scanning traditional slides of tissue samples in the form of digital images with very high spatial resolution. Determining the prognosis of localized colorectal cancer remains a major clinical problem. Recently, AI has shown its ability to reveal predictive, prognostic or molecular information from a digitized histology slide. Using several prospective cohorts of stage II and III colon cancers involving more than 3,600 patients, the objectives of the project are to generate and validate prognostic algorithms using deep learning technology to estimate patient survival using a slide stained with hematoxilin eosin saffron (HES), less complex staining to achieve.

Past projects

TIMES

ANR TIMES (2017-2022)

Involvement : Co-Principal Investigator

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche

The TIMES project aims to support the analysis of satellite image time series in order to monitor the dynamics of our Planet, its land-cover and land-use.The objective of this project is to provide new high-performance processing techniques for mapping and monitoring environmental changes from massive, heterogeneous and high frequency data times series.Our team covers the image processing part of the project, with the main mission of developing and validating novel image analysis methods dedicated to environmental monitoring of landscape objects (e.g. coastal erosion, surface deformation, land cover changes) from the exploitation of the mass of available heterogeneousgeospatial data (aerial and satellite images, point cloud data) acquired with very-high temporal frequency.The ANR TIMES project is a collaboration between recognized teams in Computer Sciences (LIPADE, MIPS,MONASH (Australia) and SERTIT-ICUBE), possessing expertise in image analysis, pattern recognition, machinelearning and high performance computing, and in environmental geography (land cover/use change analysis) withLIVE and ICUBE-SERTIT.

SHADES

ANR SHADES (2014-2018)

Involvement : Member (22 %)

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche

The SHADES project is an interdisciplinary project on the security of documents combining experts from computer science and law.The objective of this project is to provide a new tool for authenticating a document through an advanced electronic signature inorder to fight against fraud and falsification. Addressing the drawbacks of current solutions for hybrid document security, thissignature, based on the document’s content and structure, will allow recognizing and authenticating a document independent fromits physical representation as long as its content and/or structure have not been modified. Thanks to a hashing of the document’sinformation during the signature computation, no information from the original document will be deduced from its signature alone.This will be completed by a study on the legal position of this technology and its interest for legal professionals. The project will beconducted in collaboration with a trusted third party and an end user.

Coclico

ANR Coclico (2012-2017)

Involvement : Associated partner (since 2014)

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche

The Coclico project ("COllaboration, CLassification, Incrementality and Knowledge")is a research project whose aim is to propose a generic method allowing multi-scale analysis of large volumes of spatio-temporal imaging data of variable quality and provided in continuous with remote sensing technologies over urban areas.It consists in studying and implementing an incremental multistrategy approach guided by knowledge. It must guarantee a final quality of the results by taking into account the qualityof the data and those of knowledge.The Coclico project aims to develop automatic or semi-automatic methods, tailored to the complexity and rapid evolution of large masses of multi-source spatiotemporal data, relying on advanced methodsfrom data mining and the machine learning for the analysis and monitoring of complex phenomena.

ePAD

ePAD (2012-2013)

Involvement : Associated partner

Funding : National Institutes of Health (USA)

The ePAD project ("electronic Physician Annotation Device")is a medical imaging project launched at Stanford University School of Medicine in 2012 and supported by the National Institutes of Health [grant number U01CA142555-01].Medical images contain a wealth of information, such as anatomy and pathology,which is often not explicit and computationally accessible.Information schemes are being developed to describe the semantic content of images,but such schemes can be unwieldy to operationalize because there are few tools to enable users tocapture structured information easily as part of the routine research workflow.This projects aims at developing a Web-based semantic annotation tool for radiological images called ePad,an open source tool enabling researchers and clinicians to create semantic annotations that are used to characterize images for classification or image retrieval purpose.ePad enables to describe images and image regionsusing a graphical interface (developed with cutting-edge features of GWT-P and HTML5) that maps their descriptions to ontologies.

iCBIR

Project France-Stanford - iCBIR (2014-2015)

Involvement : Co-Principal Investigator

Funding : France-Stanford Collaborative Projects

The goal of the iCBIR project ("Interactive Content-Based Image Retrieval for real-time decision support in Radiology")is to conduct research activities centered on the development of innovative informatics tools that providecomputer-based assistance to radiologists to enhance theirimage interpretation efficiency.Indeed a major challenge to effective Radiology practice is efficiently interpreting cross-sectional studies that contain thousands of images.This results in variability in Radiologist interpretive accuracy and suboptimal patient care.Our tools will assist radiologists by finding, within large image collections, images containing visually similar abnormalities and the associated diagnoses and, where available,responses to therapies. A key aspect of the work will be developing methods of Relevance Feedback to enable the system to continually improve the accuracy of relevant care retrieval during clinical use.We will undertake this work by establishing a collaboration between the Information Sciences in Imaging center (ISIS) at Stanford University, specializing in medical imaging, and the Computer Sciences Laboratory(LIPADE) at University Paris Descartes, possessing expertise in image analysis tools.

Foster

ANR Foster (2011 - 2013)

Involvement : Involved as Phd student

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche

The FOSTER project ("Spatio-temporal data mining: application to the understanding and monitoring of soil erosion")is a three-year project launched in January 2011. This computer science project is founded by the French NationalResearch Agency ANR. This project aims at providing to geologists a semi-automatic and complete process for monitoringsoil erosion. This process will be based on multi-temporal very high resolution satellite images coupled with digitalelevation model (DEM), sensor data and/or expert knowledge. The project will focus more precisely on two importantaspects of this process: segmentation of satellite images based on collaborative methods, and construction of descriptive(patterns, clustering, ...) and predictive (decision trees, ...) spatio-temporal models.

FoDoMuSt

ACI Fodomust (2004 - 2008)

Involvement : Involved as Msc student

Funding : French Agence Nationale de le Recherche

The FoDoMuSt project ("Multi-Strategic Data Mining")is a four-year project launched in September 2004 and finished in September 2008. FoDoMuSt is a research project about multi-strategic data mining forextraction and characterisation of urban vegetation based on a database of remote sensing images.The main idea is to improve the result of one clustering on some data by using a set of clustering methods and making them collaborate.Multi-strategic clustering methods can then be used to generate thematic maps (with different clusters for different ground occupations/uses).The proposed collaborative approaches proposed during this project have been validated in the context of remote sensing images analysis,with the collaboration of the Laboratoire Image et Ville (UMR CNRS/UDS 7011).

Teaching

Administrative responsability

  • [Since 2022] Co-responsible (with L. Wendling) of the Parcours Vision et Machine Intelligente of Master Informatique at the UFR de Mathématique et d'Informatique , track FI - formation initiale
    This course trains professionals to master the processes of indexing and automated processing of the meaning of digital content. Another objective is to provide students with strong imaging skills with in-depth knowledge of theoretical and practical mechanisms. The training can be followed as initial training or as an apprenticeship with the CFA (responsibles: Nicolas Loménie and Sylvain Lobry).
  • [2014-2018] Responsible of the BSc (Hons) / DEST European Computing
    This course offers both a UK honours degree (BSc) in Computer Sciences from University of Brighton (UK) and an equivalent French qualification (DEST) in Informatique from IUT Paris Descartes (France).This is a fantastic opportunity to develop a diverse understanding of the world of European business and of the computing industry.
