IPAL Scientific Objectives

Continuing and capitalizing IPAL experience toward natural and medical image/information access, IPAL concentrates its research themes around two axes/teams:

  • MIU - Medical Image Understanding, targeting semantic and cognitive exploration of medical images for diagnosis and prognosis, and
  • PAWM - Pervasive Access and Wellbeing Management, focusing on ambient intelligence dedicated to ageing and dependant people.

The global framework is related to pervasive access to information, involving continuous learning algorithms, reasoning (visual reasoning, meta-rules and second-order rules…) and human-machine confluence. The exploration approach needs to be confluent for the user, enabling the generation of a new knowledge (cognitive medical image) or an active ubiquitous assistance approach (ambient assistive living).
