The [artificial] intelligence newsletter

N°16

Roberta Wohlstetter (1912-2007)
Pioneer of modern intelligence

What geometric figure(s) can you see?

The answer: rounds and rectangles.

If you have only seen one or the other of these shapes, don't worry, there's no need to run to your eye doctor! The human eye is a powerful instrument: it constantly readjusts its focus, stabilises movements, selects shapes and colours and fills in blind spots. Our brain constantly reworks the information it receives from its friendly eye sensor. The result: stable, sharp and continuous images but, ultimately, an altered perception of the world. You guessed it, the human eye misses certain details. Sometimes this helps us, sometimes it misleads us. What if artificial intelligence could help humans see better?

In this Roberta, we explore computer vision, the field of AI that enables machines to see. Discover concrete applications of this AI discipline through :

The 1st use case of our special series on China, based on our computer vision AI solutions
An interview with Nor-Eddine Regnard, co-founder of Gleamer, which uses computer vision for radiological diagnostics
A new episode of our Roberta Podcast: Ada Lovelace, the first programmer

Arnaud Guérin & Renaud Allioux, co-founders of Preligens

Djibouti, the highly secret Chinese military base revealed

Changbai Chan. An amphibious helicopter carrier type 071 of the Chinese Navy, capable of carrying 800 sailors, landing craft and Z-8 helicopters, copies of the French Super Frelon. Immortalized by the images of the American satellite imagery specialist Maxar, deciphered for Challenges by the French champion of image analysis by AI Preligens, the passage of the Changbai Chan symbolizes the impressive rise in power of this base inaugurated five years ago.

3 questions to Nor-Eddine Regnard, co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of Gleamer

Nor-eddine Regnard

What do you see as the most promising computer vision research for the medical sector?

Sectors where diagnosis is made partially or totally on images, such as radiology, nuclear medicine, ophthalmology, anatomopathology, dermatology, gastroenterology, etc.

Robotics, assisted by computer vision, is also a very promising field for surgery and interventional radiology.

The US validation study paper for one of GLEAMER's AI solutions was awarded the Alexander Margulis Scientific Excellence Award for the best radiology paper of the year 2022 by the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

A word of vocabulary

Computer vision is the field of artificial intelligence in which techniques are studied and developed to enable a computer system to analyse and interpret visual content, images or videos.

Ada Lovelace, the first programmer

The three-quarter face, the hair tied in an elegant bun at the nape of the neck, the refined finery. These are the typical depictions of Ada Lovelace. All of her rank as a countess but nothing of her skills. If we had sifted through these paintings with our computer vision solutions, chances are that even artificial intelligence would not have detected the genius hidden within.

And yet, Ada Lovelace is the first programmer and thus another figure at the origins of AI!

Pioneering AI solutions for a safer world.

Preligens was created in 2016 by two engineers, Arnaud Guérin and Renaud Allioux, on the belief that intelligence professionals would never be able to cope with the tsunami of data made available by the huge investments made in sensors. They came up with the idea of using artificial intelligence (AI) to automate the analysis of this multi-sourced data and tip and cue analysts to unusual events requiring their expertise.

Based in Paris and present in 5 countries, Preligens employs 230 people, mostly scientists who form the largest AI team for Defence in Europe. The performance and accuracy of Preligens' solutions, which are internationally recognized and proven in the field, enable its users in the defence sector to be quickly enlightened about complex situations.
