Welcome to TAO Web site

TAO is the mixed INRIA Saclay (external link)CNRS (external link)LRI, Université Paris-Sud (external link) research group interested in the interplay of Machine Learning (A for Apprentissage) and Optimization (O). The two pilars of TAO's research are:


Position:


News

Research

The main on-going research directions/projects are:

  • Autonomic Computing - how to make a gigantic distributed computing system self-aware, self-healing, self-optimizing, self-?... (more...)


    • Project: Grid Observatory, Work Package in EGEE-III.


  • Crossing the Chasm. Why so many good algorithms don't make it outside of the research labs ? How to tune them is part of the answer... (more...)




  • Developmental Design, Swarm Robotics and other Complex Systems. When what you optimize is the process leading to the result (this is ''embryogenesis'). more...


    • Project: SYMBRION (external link) Integrated Project, FP7.


  • Multi-Disciplinary and Continuous Optimization; dealing with computationally expensive, noisy, mixed, structured, objective functions. (more ...)


    • Projects OMD (external link) and OMD2


  • Optimal decision making under uncertainty - best illustrated by the computer-Go program MoGo? - first program to ever win over a professional Go player. (more...)




  • Reservoir Computing. How can large random structures be more efficient than carefully crafted ones (e.g. in Neural Networks) ? (more...)
