A platform for responsible AI

The platform’s 200 research scientists and engineers, experts in signal and time series analysis, statistical and semantic analysis, decision support systems, and computer vision, are committed to achieving these CEA-List AI research and development objectives. The platform’s experts also respond to our R&D partners’ needs:

• AI verification and certification
• Dynamic safety monitoring of AI-based systems
• Model optimization and embedded deployment
• Architecture and dedicated component design

Users of the AI platform can also access CEA-List resources like the Factory IA teraflop computer, the DNeuro and PNeuro accelerators, and the MobileMii smart home services development platform.

The platform supports the development of applications in mobility, defense and security, cybersecurity, energy, and health.

The platform is home to a wide and constantly expanding range of equipment.

Semantic analysis tools for multimedia documents

• LIMA natural language processing software.
• LIVA image analysis software.

Development tools

• Pixano web-based smart image annotation tool.
• Streamer to manage learning on data streams.
• N2D2 software for the exploration, optimization, and generation of neural networks, plus AI hardware accelerators and methods to evaluate the portability of AI applications on different hardware architectures.
• ExpressIF® software for the development of fuzzy logic rule-based systems with explainable output and rule learning.

Validation and certification tools

• SophIA risk analysis and qualification process support software.

The AI platform supports the development of new forms of interaction between humans and digital systems and the automation of functions.

It leverages the touch screens, haptic and vibration systems, and other interfaces developed by CEA-List to reduce the user’s cognitive load. The platform also utilizes communications protocols suitable for IoT devices. These protocols are frugal in terms of computing and energy resources, secure, reliable, and remote-management-enabled.

Users also have access to MobileMii, a 160 sq. m lab for the study, development, and implementation of innovative smart home services. In addition to smart home and assisted living solutions, MobileMii also develops innovative solutions to enable collaboration in meetings, for example.
