Frédéric CHAZAL
Director of Research at Inria Saclay - Ile-de-France
Director of the DATAIA Paris-Saclay Institute
Frédéric Chazal is Director of Research at Inria Saclay - Ile-de-France and Director of the DATAIA Paris-Saclay Institute.
After a PhD in pure mathematics, he focused his research on computational geometry and topology. Today, he leads the DataShape team (Inria Saclay - Ile-de-France) which works on topological data analysis (TDA), a recent and rapidly growing field at the crossroads of mathematics, statistics, machine learning and computer science.
Frédéric's contributions to this field range from fundamental mathematics to algorithmic and applied problems. He has published more than 80 papers for major computer science conferences and mathematics journals. He is co-author of 2 reference books and 3 patents. He is also associate editor of 4 international journals: Discrete and Computational Geometry (Springer), SIAM Journal on Imaging Science, Graphical Models (Elsevier), Journal of Applied and Computational Topology (Springer).

Isabelle RYL
Director of PRAIRIE Institute
Isabelle Ryl is a teacher and director of Prairie (PaRis Artificial Intelligence Research InstitutE), which is run by Inria. She is an expert in innovation issues, particularly artificial intelligence. A Knight of the National Order of Merit, she has spent more than 12 years of her career at Inria, in various capacities.
Since 2018, she has directed one of the Interdisciplinary Institutes for Artificial Intelligence labeled as part of the national strategy for artificial intelligence. The institute brings together public organizations including the CNRS and the Pasteur Institute, as well as industrial and technological groups (Google, Facebook, Valeo, Faurecia...).

Gaël RICHARD
Lecturer & researcher at Télécom Paris
Co-Scientific Director of Hi! Paris
A specialist in audio signal processing at the LTCI, Gaël Richard has been a lecturer and researcher at Télécom Paris since 2001 and is the co-sicentific director of Hi! Paris, a multidisciplinary center devoted to artificial intelligence and data.
More specifically, his research work is at the heart of digital technology and is dedicated to the analysis, transformation, understanding and interpretation of sound signals (speech, music, environmental sounds, etc.) and to a lesser extent multimedia signals. In speech processing, he works on the development of models for the analysis and representation of signals, in order, for example, to improve the quality or intelligibility in noisy environments.

In addition to this management committee, the IMG will rely on two main bodies: the scientific council and the board of directors.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is the main governance body of AI4IDF. It brings together members from the project and external members to enrich its vision and relevance.
Its composition is as follows:
-
Isabelle RYLProject coordinator and representative of the PRAIRIE Institute
-
Gérard BIAUSCAI Representative
-
Frédéric CHAZALDATAIA Representative
-
Gaël RICHARDRepresenting Hi! PARIS
-
Yulia ZAVORINARepresenting the IDF region
-
Juliette MATTIOLIRepresenting the Systematic cluster
-
Jennyfer LECOMPTERepresenting the Cap' Digital cluster
Scientific board
The SC ensures DIM's excellence in the targeted research areas, thematic diversity across the spectrum of basic research and disruptive technologies and the transparency of the selection and validation processes.
The SC is composed of internationally recognized academic figures from outside the four partner institutes. Its composition is as follows:
-
Kathryn HESSInternational scientific personality
-
Julia KEMPÉInternational scientific personality
-
Christian GAGNÉInternational scientific personality
-
Stéphane CANUInternational scientific personality and president of the Scientific Committee
-
Constance GRISONIGroup Strategy Director
-
Lucas FISHERCTO
-
Patrick PEREZDirector
Each year, a "COMSEL" selection committee will be set up on the proposal of the Scientific Council, and validated by the Board of Directors. This Selection Committee will be set up each year to prepare the work of the Scientific Council, and in particular to select the winners of the various calls.
