“Supervised and semi-supervised classification on large data bases mixing qualitative and quantitative variables.”

Arcelor-Mittal is faced with some quality problems in the steel production which lead to supervised and semi-supervised classification involving (1) a small number of individuals comparing to the number of variables, (2) heterogeneous variables, typically categorical and continuous variables and (3) potentially highly correlated variables. A PhD CIFRE grant started on May 2011.
