Scientific program

The scientific program of ICVL is structured around 3 notions:

• Scientific axes - large research topics covering the expertise and interests of the two labs' members. They serve both as external communication means, and as an interal structuring tool. Most axes are transverse (inter-lab) but some gather members of only on lab or one team of the same lab. The aim is that each LIFO/LIFAT member can identify with at least one axis.
• Actions - mid- and long-term transverse (inter-lab) collaboration topics
• Initiatives - singular events (workshops, co-supervision, etc.) aimed at implementing an action, funded by the ICVL budget

Other collaboration forms include:

• funded joint projects
• co-authored publications
• co-supervision of PhD theses

Scientific axes

For more details on the contents and people related to each axis, see pages 16-34 of the scientific program.

• Axis A: Voluminous, complex and heterogeneous data (47 members from 4 teams))
