Paul Boniol, Award-winning Post-doctoral Researcher Creating Predictive Algorithms

Paul Boniol, a post-doctoral researcher in computer science has won several awards for his work, which lead to the filing of 2 patents at both the national and European level. He explains his methods for analysing large volumes of data to create algorithms capable of predicting all kinds of anomalies.

Paul Boniol did his research at LIPADE, in collaboration with EDF (Electricité de France). His work, called ‘Analysis of very large multivariate time series using unsupervised learning methods in order to detect anomalies and support predictive maintenance’, focused on the analysis of very large volumes of time series data in the energy sector, collected from nuclear power plant reactors, hydroelectric dams, etc. Using new unsupervised learning methods, Paul created algorithms capable of detecting anomalies and facilitating their prediction. These results are available to the international scientific community. His work has been awarded 4 prestigious prizes and has led to the filing of national and European patents.

Imminent launch of ESA’s HERA mission

Imminent launch of ESA’s HERA mission

On 7 October 2024, from the Cape Canaveral launch pad, the European Space Agency’s (ESA) HERA probe will take off aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 launcher, marking a milestone in the AIDA (Asteroid Impact & Deflection Assessment) mission. This program, in which Sébastien Charnoz, an astrophysicist working at the IPGP, is taking part, aims to test and study planetary defense strategies against the threat of asteroids that are potentially dangerous for the Earth.
