Presentation of scientific questions, specialties and applications

The team's scientific questions revolve around instrumental optics, signal processing, and multivariate data analysis applied to agriculture and agro-bio-processes.

Scientific questions

Instrumental optics

What types of optical measurements should be developed in order to obtain relevant chemical, physical or structural information on complex biological samples?

Signal processing and multivariate data analysis

How to improve:

  • the robustness of the measurements (find the best treatments, the relevant subspaces)
  • extracting relevant information (identifying sources of variance in highly multivariate data)
  • data reduction (selection of variables in a spectrum, in several tables)
  • the fusion of data from different sensors (multiblock methods)
