Xiao Xiao, Director of the Institute for Future Technologies at De Vinci Higher Education, presented Antithèse at the Scalable HCI Symposium in Shenzhen. This lecture-performance explored embodied cognition and technological augmentation through a live theremin dialogue with electroacoustic compositions. As research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) increasingly bridges theory and practice, artistic experimentation offers a complementary […]
Antoine Plin, class of 2026 at ESILV and a participant in the Parcours Recherche (Research Track), presented his research paper “Knock-Knock: Black-Box, Platform-Agnostic DRAM Address-Mapping Reverse Engineering” at the Microarchitecture Security Conference (uASC) 2026, held in Leuven, Belgium. This presentation was delivered at an international conference on microarchitectural security research. Link to the paper The […]
The Institute for Future Technologies (IFT) hosted Easa Ali Abbasi, a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics, for a research collaboration and a talk on tactile perception and haptics in Human–Computer Interaction. This invitation provided an opportunity to explore recent advances in understanding touch through a sensorimotor perspective, while fostering exchanges with […]
Two scientific publications analyse changes in tourism practices using digital traces left by visitors. Conducted within the De Vinci Research Centre (DVRC), this research combines computer science and geography to provide complementary perspectives on contemporary tourism dynamics. Beyond their shared focus on tourism data, these two publications address complementary analytical dimensions. Interdisciplinary research on digital […]
ESILV and the Institute for Future Technologies hosted Irmandy Wicaksono, MIT Media Lab alum and Assistant Professor at the National University of Singapore, for a talk and academic visit dedicated to soft technologies and computational textiles. Within this context, the presentation focused on how soft materials and digital fabrication are reshaping interactions between technology, the […]
The third Research Devoteam x ESILV exchange seminar brought together lecturers, researchers, PhD students and experts to discuss two key areas for digital infrastructure: the frugal cloud and the autonomous cloud. This afternoon workshop provided an opportunity to identify common areas of research and strengthen collaborative dynamics. Devoteam x ESILV: a research-industry collaboration Organised in […]
At PRICAI 2025, research carried out within ESILV and the De Vinci Research Center was represented by Pierre Lefebvre, PhD student, who presented recent work on efficient video violence detection. The contribution addresses key challenges in computer vision related to performance, computational cost, and real-world deployment. ESILV research represented at an international AI conference The […]
The Institute for Future Technologies and ESILV welcomed Lucy Li, PhD candidate at the MIT Media Lab, for a research talk and academic exchanges focused on speculative design, emerging technologies, and future imaginaries. Building on these speculative narratives, the discussion then shifted from conceptual frameworks to concrete exchanges with ESILV’s academic community, connecting research exploration […]
During a dedicated session at IBM France, HamidReza Vanaei, professor and researcher at ESILV, presented the book History of Artificial Intelligence: From the Mathematics of Ancient Civilisations to Thinking Machines, published by CRC Press – Routledge Taylor & Francis Group. The meeting brought together members of the technical community to exchange on the historical, scientific, […]
A new publication in IEEE Access (Q1), led by Ahmed Azough, Head of the Computer Science & Data Science MSc at ESILV, offers a structured review of artificial intelligence methods for detecting parking slots from in-vehicle cameras. This work, to which Chaimae Aajal contributed, analyses how camera-based approaches have evolved into a scalable alternative to […]
During the 41st edition of the BDA Conference, held at IRIT Toulouse in October 2025, Wissal Benjira, PhD student and ESILV alumni, received the Best Demo Award for her research work on computing Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators using open data.
