**First-year internship**

Period: from the beginning of April to the end of August (at least 4 months)

Defence: First week of September

An internship either in a private company or in a public lab. The research component of the internship is not mandatory but strongly encouraged. Students are requested to choose a topic related to the curriculum of their graduate degree program ie. involving either machine learning or visual computing, ideally both (see the first and second-year courses for details). This work can be theoretical (comprehension of a theorem and extension to a new setting), applied (developing and implementing a new solution) or mix theory and application.

The report must be at least 20 pages long. It must contain a general presentation of the topic and describe state-of-the-art methods in this field. The contributions of the student must be clearly identified and explained in details. There is no need for an exhaustive description of all codes produced during the internship. However, algorithms highlighting the challenging tasks solved by the student must be presented and explained in the report (if needed, relevant parts of the code can be included as well in an appendix).

**Second-year internship**

Period: from the beginning of April to the end of September (at least 5 months)

Defence: First week of September (the internship can be pursued after the defence).

A research internship either in the R&D department of a company or in a public research lab. The student must produce original work related to machine learning and/or to visual computing, ideally involving several different topics studied during the whole curriculum. This work can be theoretical or applied as soon as it contains novel ideas developed and validated by the student.

The report must be at least 30 pages long. It must contain a general presentation and motivation for the topic, point-out the related  challenges, and describe state-of-the-art methods in this field. The contributions of the student must be clearly highlighted and explained in details. There is no need for an exhaustive description of all codes produced during the internship. However, algorithms highlighting the challenging tasks solved by the student must be presented and explained in the report (if needed, relevant parts of the code can be included as well in an appendix).

** GraphDeco/Inria Sophia-Antipolis (France , near Nice) Masters internships available for Computer Graphics & Deep Learning Research **

Computer Graphics cover a wide range of algorithms to generate synthetic images. Traditional computer graphics algorithms model and simulate the physics underpinning image formation, but recent methods leverage the impressive expressive power of machine learning to capture and reproduce visual effects from large quantities of training data. Such methods enable learning and graphics to work hand-in-hand -- ie using computer graphics to generate training data for learning, or using learning to render computer graphics images -- resulting in unprecedented advances for the generation and manipulation of visual data.

The GraphDeco (https://team.inria.fr/graphdeco) group at Inria Sophia Antipolis works extensively on these topics, at the crossroad of computer graphics and machine learning (see https://team.inria.fr/graphdeco/publications).

We propose several exciting internship topics to explore efficient representations and algorithms for the creation and manipulation of visual data, based on cutting-edge deep learning methods.

** Life Long Deep Learning (LLDL) Challenge Preparation  **

Abstract 
[[Url |text]].

Topic: Machine Learning, Deep Learning City and country: UPSud/INRIA Paris-Saclay (Gif-sur-Yvette) and Google (Zurich).  Team or project in the lab: Isabelle Guyon (UPSud/INRIA), Michèle Sebag (CNRS),  Zhengying Liu (PhD. Student). International collaboration with André Elisseeff (Google Zurich), Sergio Escalera (Univ. Barcelona), and Wei-Wei Tu (4Paradigm, China). Name and mail of the advisors: Isabelle Guyon (iguyon@lri.fr), Michèle Sebag (sebag@lri.fr), Zhengying Liu (zhengying.liu@lri.fr). Name and mail of the head of the department: Yannis Manoussakis (yannis.manoussakis@lri.fr) LRI, UPSud Paris-Saclay. 

General presentation of the topic: Machine Learning problems (including Deep Learning) are often thought of as a “onetime” effort in which models are trained and tested on data coming from a common invariant source. Yet, in practice, data sources may drift and/or variants of an original problem may recur. Thus, it is important to capitalize on previously seen data and/or situations to adapt or solve new problems. Going beyond the usual setting of Transfer Learning or Domain Adaptation, researchers have been starting to investigate the possibility of Life-Long Machine Learning. In parallel, Deep Learning methods have known in the recent year tremendous success in applications, but also generated a lot of 
frustrations from users eager to try them out, but slowed down by the effort needed to tune hyper-parameters by trial and errors.  To address the latter problem, we have engaged in a series of data science challenges with Google Zurich and 4Paradigm to foster research in the area of self-tuning machine learning algorithm (http://autodl.chalearn.org), which are part of the official selection of the prestigious NeurIPS conference. To prepare these challenges, we have formatted nearly 100 datasets coming from a variety of domains and including speech, images, videos, text, and tabular data, all formatted in a unified way, but NOT preprocessed into fixed-length feature vectors. Therefore, we have a wealth of data making it possible to organize an unprecedented LLDL challenge. 
 
Objective of the internship:
The aim of this internship will be to help prepare the LLDL challenge. The intern will produce baseline results for the challenge using state-of-the-art techniques to bootstrap participation in the competition. Available to him will be the solutions of the winners to past AutoDL challenges. However, such solutions do not involve “meta-learning”, i.e. learning from exposure to past datasets to perform better on new tasks. The intern with explore with meta-learning strategies, including reinforcement learning. The intern will join a dynamic and motivated team of challenge organizers and may contribute to a publication on the challenge design.

 Topic: Machine Learning, Deep Learning City and country: UPSud/INRIA Paris-Saclay (Gif-sur-Yvette) and Google (Zurich).  Team or project in the lab: Isabelle Guyon (UPSud/INRIA), Michèle Sebag (CNRS),  Zhengying Liu (PhD. Student).

 General presentation of the topic: Despite all the recent successes in Machine Learning in general and Deep Learning in particular, there is still a lot of room for improvement. Indeed, even though there has been significant advances both in hardware and software available for implementing and efficiently running large scale Machine Learning systems, a key bottleneck still remains: designing appropriate model architectures and tuning hyper-parameters is still a very tedious and labor-intensive process. Training a complex deep network is often a long and frustrating trial-and-error process involving lots of heuristics and requiring a fair amount of practical experience and expertise. Even worse, the difficulty of those tasks often translates into lack of reproducibility of the published results. To address this problem, we have engaged in a series of data science challenges with 
Google Zurich and 4Paradigm to foster research in the area of self-tuning machine learning algorithm (http://autodl.chalearn.org) which are part of the official selection of the prestigious NeurIPS conference. We also won an award to use the new supercomputer

Objective of the internship: The aim of this internship will be to conduct systematic experiments to reproduce the results of the AutoDL competition and go beyond. One challenging aspect of the Google design is that the participants were exposed to data coming from a variety of domains and including speech, images, videos, text, and tabular data, all formatted in a unified way, but NOT preprocessed into fixed-length feature vectors. The winners have made their code publicly available and explained their methods in fact sheets, but clearly their methods involve a lot of ad hoc engineering. The purpose of this internship is then to identify the key ingredients of success of the methods and create a simplified , principled, and robust methodology. This internship may lead to a publication, in collaboration with the organizers.

Project description
Assistance to diagnosis is a common subject of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Advances in AI to analyse human movement, in particular using video images, make it possible to envision its use both for evaluating the progress of patients in rehabilitation and for help in the preparation of high-level athletes. The proposed thesis subject aims at an integrated approach from the measurement of movements to the presentation of the most relevant information to reflect the evolution of performance.
This thesis is also part of scientific projects aimed at improving the preparation of athletes for the 2024 Olympic Games. The project will be carried out in cooperation with the French Athletics Federation and the French Handisport Federation. The results will have a direct application for the preparation of the sprinters.
Video image analysis is widely used for the preparation of high-performance athletes. However, the time-consuming nature of these analyses, carried out mainly manually, limits their use. The current successes of AI make it possible to consider its systematic use to create training evaluation tools and to make these tools available to physicians for follow-up rehabilitation.
The general objective of the thesis is to provide coaches or practitioners with metrics that allow them to follow the progress of an athlete's performance or of a patient's rehabilitation.
In particular, the assessment will involve deep neural networks to measure movement in three dimensions using video images. A fusion with inertial sensors (IMU) will be studied to obtain greater precision. Metrics will then be proposed, either by considering measurable indicators correlated with the knowledge of coaches and practitioners, or by highlighting data correlated with performance or progress directly using videos annotated by experts.
Particular attention will be paid to the study of walking and running. Since the possibility for athletes and patients to view their progress is a major motivating factor, the results of the assessment should be presented in a form that is understandable to them.

** Automatic landmark detection on 3D meshes using convolutional neural networks.  Anatoscope.  **

Context : One  mission   of  Anatoscope   is   to   offer   solutions   to   automatically   transform   medical   imaging   to complete 3D digital twins of the patients, with the objective of helping diagnostics and improving treatment.   One   method   to   construct   personalized   anatomical   avatar   is   to   combine   a canonical   avatar   (3D   model)   with   medical   images   of   the   person   (CT,   MRI,   3D   scans...)   by registration. Landmark detection is an essential early process in a typical pipeline of establishing registration. It refers to the localization of fiducial key points of the related object.  The detected landmarks can be used to initialize parameters of the 3D morphable model. They can also be used directly to  determine correspondences between the canonical model and the 2D image or 3D scan. In this work we focus on the case of automatic landmark detection on 3D scan. In practice, the captured 3D scans are often noisy and incomplete, which increases the difficulty of the landmark detection task. (see full proposal)

**Apprentissage Profond pour le suivi systématique de cellules d’embryons vivants imagées par microscopie (LIRRM et CRBM, Montpellier).**

	
	L'apprentissage automatique et plus particulièrement l'apprentissage profond (Deep Learning) donnent des résultats très prometteurs dans divers domaines de la recherche en biologie. Le but du stage est d'appliquer l'apprentissage profond au domaine de l'imagerie biologique, et plus particulièrement à la segmentation cellulaire 4D (3D plus temps), la reconnaissance et le suivi de chaque cellule dans des embryons vivants en développement. L’apprentissage se fera sur une base de données préexistante de plus de 10 embryons entièrement segmentés (> 10000 cellules suivies). L’objectif est de créer un suivi des cellules basé uniquement sur l’apprentissage en profondeur. Durant ce stage, en fonction du profil et des intérêts du stagiaire, nous pourrons :
	- Implémenter et adapter à notre base de données les méthodes d'apprentissage en profondeur basées sur l'identification d'objets individuels (instance segmentation).
	- Explorer les aspects théoriques du concept de mémoire dans les réseaux neuronaux récurrents (LSTM) et les adapter au suivi cellulaire dans des images 3D + temps.
	- Utiliser l'apprentissage en profondeur pour prédire et définir les règles de la division cellulaire au cours de l'embryogenèse.

Ce stage de 5 à 6 mois peut déboucher sur un projet de thèse, combinant potentiellement des approches informatiques avec la validation expérimentale des prédictions.


PROFIL ET COMPÉTENCES DE RECHERCHE :

	Le stage est principalement destiné aux étudiants ayant une formation initiale en mathématiques et en informatique et un intérêt pour la biologie, mais aussi à des biologistes ayant de très bonnes compétences en programmation informatique et en analyse statistique. Esprit d'équipe, autonomie, dynamisme et créativité seraient appréciés. La maîtrise de l'anglais ou du français technique doit être suffisante pour rédiger la documentation technique et interagir verbalement quotidiennement.

Langage de programmation requis : python
L'étudiant sélectionné aura des connaissances de base sur au moins l'un des sujets suivants : la théorie de l'apprentissage automatique, le traitement d'image, le calcul haute performance ou l'utilisation de bibliothèques d'apprentissage en profondeur (par exemple Keras).

** Automatic landmark detection on 3D meshes using convolutional neural networks **.  Anatoscope.  

Context : One  mission   of  Anatoscope   is   to   offer   solutions   to   automatically   transform   medical   imaging   to complete 3D digital twins of the patients, with the objective of helping diagnostics and improving treatment.   One   method   to   construct   personalized   anatomical   avatar   is   to   combine   a canonical   avatar   (3D   model)   with   medical   images   of   the   person   (CT,   MRI,   3D   scans...)   by registration. Landmark detection is an essential early process in a typical pipeline of establishing registration. It refers to the localization of fiducial key points of the related object.  The detected landmarks can be used to initialize parameters of the 3D morphable model. They can also be used directly to  determine correspondences between the canonical model and the 2D image or 3D scan. In this work we focus on the case of automatic landmark detection on 3D scan. In practice, the captured 3D scans are often noisy and incomplete, which increases the difficulty of the landmark detection task. (see full proposal)

**Automatiser une chaine de renseignement militaire** (THALES, apprenti ou thèse sur 3 ans). 

L’observation est permanente. On traite plus de 10 000 interceptions par jour soit plusieurs dizaines ou centaines de millions d’impulsions radar élémentaires. Le traitement est automatique mais il peut y avoir par exemple 1% d’échec ce qui représente entre 100 ou 1000 interceptions ou plus. Le traitement fait un diagnostic de chaque interception sur chaque paramètre pour savoir si il y a correspondance avec un signal cible. Le traitement analyse pour cela plus de 100 paramètres, avec une hiérarchie sur les types d’erreur rencontrés. Il peut être aussi amené à déclencher des actions pour compléter les faits à disposition. Les diagnostics élémentaires sont tous automatisés.

 Quand tout ne « match » pas,  il faut déterminer  si c’est un signal inconnu ou une variante d’un mode d’émission connu. Et faire l’analyse des causes.Et compléter en conséquence la base de données. Tant qu’on a pas « légiférer » sur le type de problème rencontré, c’est un opérateur expert qui décide. On dispose donc d’une pseudo-réalité terrain.

Pour traiter automatiquement ces situations d’échec on envisage l’utilisation :

- D’un apprentissage d’arbres de décisions pour retrouver automatiquement le bon diagnostic. A ce niveau l’explication (retour aux causes) est indispensable.

- De régles locales définies par l’expert sur les noeuds terminaux.


Pour l’apprentissage, nous envisageons d’utiliser :

- une technique rapide ne donnant pas forcément d’explication pour approcher la performance décisionelle que nous pourions atteindre

- Une technique à base d’arbres de décision pour avoir la possibilité d’expliquer le raisonement (et à terme de le compléter)

Nous avons réalisé il y a 20 ans un procédé type CART avec apprentissage local de densités de probabilités par Kernel. Dans le cadre d’une thèse nous aimerions approfondir la pertinence de ce type de technique avec les forets aléatoires. Il faudra aussi compléter (voir plus loin).

Dans le cadre de l’apprenti, nous voulons réaliser un véritable prototype travaillant sur données réelles (d’où une nécessité d’habilitabilité de celui-ci au niveau confidentiel requis). Et mettant en œuvre les techniques que nous trouvons sur étagère, puis les techniques plus raffinées extraites de la thèse.

Sur les nœuds terminaux de l’arbre, il pourrait être nécessaire d’améliorer le traitement en lançant des diagnostics partiels plus élaborés, répetoriés ou construis adhoc à la premiere fois ou le cas serait rencontré. Pour cela des régles simples de déclenchement d’action et de décision semblent idéales. Se posera alors le problème du maintien en cohérence des systèmes locaux de régles et les problèmes de généralisation et spécialisation.
