Bilateral Grants with Industry

Maël Guillemé has obtained a CIFRE PhD grant with the Energiency startup, supervised by V. Masson and L. Rozé. The goal of Maël Guillemé's thesis is to propose new approaches for improving industrial energy performance and aims at integrating both numerical and symbolic attributes. A master 2 internship explored in 2016 a first approach based on an algorithm proposed by Shokoohi and al, but with several improvements: avoid data normalisation, detect patterns as fast as possible, enhance functions like distance and score.

Another CIFRE PhD has started, this time with the Amossys company, specialized in cyber-security. This is the PhD of Alban Siffer, located in the EMSec team of IRISA and co-supervised between EMSec (P.A. Fouque) and Lacodam (A. Termier, C. Largouët). The goal of this PhD is to propose new methods for intrusion detection in networks. The originality is to only consider IP flow as input (metadata of packets and not packet contents), requiring to detect intrusion via unusual traffic patterns.
