PSA Peugeot Citroën (Paris:UG):
On Wednesday, November 26, 2014, Télécom ParisTech is organising
the first meetings of the Machine Learning for Big Data industrial
research chair to draw up a progress report of the chair’s
research, training and innovation activities.
Since it was created in 2013, the Machine Learning for Big Data
industrial research chair has been supported by leading companies
(PSA Peugeot Citroën, Criteo, Safran and a major French bank) who
are convinced by the fantastic potential of research and teaching
in this fast-moving area.
The meetings are being organised for all professionals involved
in managing Big Data, as well as for individuals who are interested
in seeing what Data Science and Machine Learning have to offer.
Machine Learning consists of creating and studying a body of
algorithms that can learn from data to make predictions, detect
anomalies and carry out other automatic decision-making procedures.
This could make it possible to perform tasks that until now were
beyond human reach due to the complexity and mass of data and
constraints of real time, and also contribute to the emergence of
previously inaccessible information.
In particular, the progress report will highlight the challenges
and applications for business.
As Bernard Cohen, IT Benchmarking, Innovation, PSA Peugeot
Citroën, explains: "In the near future, cars will be one of the
most widespread connected objects, generating numerous types of
digital data. We have tested several usage scenarios for different
parts of the business, supporting the idea that the predictive
approach made possible by Big Data could help us target our
initiatives more effectively and provide a powerful differentiating
factor in the competitive marketplace.”

Progress report
Nineteen researchers work on the programmes sponsored by the
Machine Learning for Big Data industrial research chair. Their work
has been validated by a scientific committee made up of four
prominent scientists from Mines ParisTech, the French Institute for
Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA), Ecole Normale
Supérieure de Cachan and Ecole Normale Supérieure (rue d’Ulm) and
comprises scientific publications covering the chair’s five areas
of research: reinforcement learning and stochastic
optimisation/simulation, graph mining and social network analysis,
ranking and detection of anomalies, cloud learning and distributed
learning algorithms, and large scale learning and temporal data
series/flows.
The researchers participate regularly in high-level
international conferences, including the IEEE International
Conference on Big Data in Washington DC, USA; the International
Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM) in
Shanghai, China; the Conference on Neural Information Processing
Systems in Montréal, Canada; and Colloque Technion France 2014:
Making Sense of Big Data in Paris, France.
