– 10:10 a.m. – 10:45 a.m.: Conference « From sensing to understanding a wild world », Patrick PEREZ, Directeur scientifique, Valeo : With the fast progress of machine learning, autonomous systems that can operate safely in the wild seem in reach. Yet, the road remains crammed with major challenges regarding life-time performance, robustness and reliability, data availability, model interpretability, among others. With examples from the automatisation of road-vehicle driving, where multi-modal sensing aims at building a thorough understanding of the surrounding world in order to forecast and act, this presentation will discuss these challenges and promising research efforts toward solving them.

– 11 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.: Pause & visit of the villages (CEA-List technologies will be presented through  numerous posters)

– 11:30 a.m. – 12 p.m.: « TAILOR – Advancing the Scientific Foundations for Trustworthy AI », Fredrik HEINTZ, Coordinator TAILOR (TAILOR) : Europe has taken a clear stand that we want AI, but we do not want any AI. We want AI that we can trust. The TAILOR Network of Excellence is dedicated to developing the scientific foundations for Trustworthy AI through integrating learning, optimisation and reasoning, and thus help realizing the European AI vision. This talk will present the TAILOR network and some of our latest research results.

• Hybrid AI
• « Data for AI » (chair: Angelique LOESCH [CEA-List]): The performance of AI modules is strongly correlated to the available data used to train them, evaluate them or guarantee their reliability. In the « Data for AI » workshop, different ways of exploiting data will be addressed:
  • “Approaches to practical Zero-Shot Learning », Hervé LE BORGNE (CEA-List)
  • “Multi-modality for autonomous vehicle perception », Sonia KHATCHADOURIAN (Valeo) and Florian CHABOT (CEA-List)
  • “Data anonymization – issues, constraints and feedback”, Eric FEUILLEAUBOIS (Valeo) and Marc NABHAN (Air Liquide)
• Synthetic data
• « ODD, Safety, Quality assurance » (Chair: Morayo ADEDJOUMA [CEA-List]): The workshop will focus on methods and systematic approaches for verification and validation of trustworthy and resilient autonomous and/or AI systems in their context. Beyond the results of the Confiance.ai program, this workshop will be an opportunity to share the point of view developed in the United Kingdom within the framework of the UKRI Trustworthy Autonomous Systems program, thanks to our invited speaker, Prof Radu CALINESCU. The keynote will be followed by a Q&A session. Program:
  • Introduction
  • Keynote, Prof Radu CALINESCU, Principal Investigator at UKRI Resilience Node (University of York)
  • Q&A session
• Recent advances and challenges on explainability
