Noise pollution has a significant impact on quality of life. In the office, noise exposure creates stress that leads to reduced performance, provokes annoyance responses and changes in social behaviour. Headphones with excellent noise-cancelling processors can now be acquired in order to protect oneself from the noise exposure. While these techniques have reached a high… Continue reading ReNAR: Reducing Noise with Augmented Reality

BioacAI: Understanding animal sounds with machine learning
Official website: https://bioacousticai.eu The biodiversity crisis is coming into focus. Yet, data for monitoring wild animal populations are still incomplete and uncertain. And there are still big gaps in our understanding of animal behaviour and interactions. Animals make sounds that convey so much information. How can we use this to help monitor and protect wildlife?… Continue reading BioacAI: Understanding animal sounds with machine learning
MuReNN: Multi-Resolution Neural Networks
“Less is more”, once the foundational motto of minimalist art, is making its way into artificial intelligence. After a maximalist decade of larger computers training larger neural networks on larger datasets (2012-2022), a countertrend arises. What if human-level performance could be achieved with less computing, less memory, and less supervision? In deep learning, the research… Continue reading MuReNN: Multi-Resolution Neural Networks
PETREL: Platform for Environmental Tracking of Renewable Energy and wildLife
Malgré leur intérêt évident dans la transition énergétique, les infrastructures productrices d’énergies renouvelables marines ont un impact sur la faune locale qui reste difficile à quantifier. Dans cecontexte, le projet PETREL (Platform for Environmental Tracking of Renewable Energy and wildLife) vise à inventer une solution pérenne et éco-responsable au problème du suivi environnemental des installations… Continue reading PETREL: Platform for Environmental Tracking of Renewable Energy and wildLife
