Computer vision for smart phones (MobilAI)

Participants : Yannis Avrithis, Mateusz Budnik.

Duration: 2 years, started in September 2018

Partners: Lamark, Quai des Apps, AriadNext

The ability of our mobile devices to process visual information is currently not limited by their camera or computing power but by the network. Many mobile apps suffer from long latency due to data transmitted over the network for visual search. MobilAI aims to provide fast visual recognition on mobile devices, offering quality user experience whatever the network conditions. The idea is to transfer efficient deep learning solutions for image classification and retrieval onto embedded platforms such as smart phones. The intention is to use such solutions in B2B and B2C application contexts, for instance recognizing products and ordering online, accessing information about artifacts in exhibitions, or identifying identity documents. In all cases, visual recognition is performed on the device, with minimal or no access to the network.

CominLabs Project BigCLIN

Data collected or produced during clinical care process can be exploited at different levels and across different domains. Yet, a well-known challenge for secondary use of health big data is that much of detailed patient information is embedded in narrative text, mostly stored as unstructured data. The project proposes to address the essential needs when reusing unstructured clinical data at a large scale. We propose to develop new clinical records representation relying on fine-grained semantic annotation thanks to new NLP tools dedicated to French clinical narratives. To efficiently map this added semantic information to existing structured data for further analysis at big scale, the project also addresses distributed systems issues: scalability, management of uncertain data and privacy, stream processing at runtime, etc.
