Our research addresses major scientific and societal issues such as: BigData, software, image and its uses, human-computer interaction, robotics, control and supervision of large systems, intelligent embedded systems, bioinformatics... with applications in the commercial, health technology, smart grid sectors among others. We are recognized by original contributions, achievements (hardware and software) and multidisciplinary collaborations in the field of Human and Social Sciences, as well as in the field of interactions of digital sciences with biology, mathematics and engineering sciences. The research is carried out within thirty three research teams divided into 9 thematic groups: Control and Scientific Computing (CO2); Data Intelligence (DatInG); Software Engineering (GL); Interactions and Collective Intelligence (I2C); Image; Modeling for Life Sciences (MSV); OPTImization: Models and Applications (OPTIMA); Secure and Adaptive Embedded Systems (SEAS); Tolerance Prognostic System of Systems (ToPSyS). We are open to academic and industrial collaborations and propose training and services in line with our expertise.
