Jean-Louis DESSALLES

Jean-Louis DESSALLES

Associate Professor at Télécom Paris
Jean-Louis Dessalles is associate professor at Télécom Paris in the LTCI laboratory and a member of the DIG research team. He uses artificial intelligence to model and simulate the relevance that characterizes spontaneous human communication. For a decade, he has been developing the Theory of Simplicity, which serves as a basis for modeling narrative interest and argumentative relevance. He also works on the simulation of evolutionary processes and on the fundamental question of the origin of human language, considered as a social signalling game. He is the author of several books, including Why We Talk (Oxford University Press. 2007), La pertinence et ses origines cognitives (Hermes), Le fil de la vie (Odile Jacob, 2016), Des intelligences TRÈS artificielles (Odile Jacob, 2019).

Pirmin LEMBERGER

Pirmin LEMBERGER

Scientific director at onepoint
Pirmin LEMBERGER is scientific director at onepoint. He supervises the team of PhD students and interns in the TALia laboratory. He holds a PhD in theoretical physics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). His publications in this field concern correlated fermion systems and the application of quantum field theory techniques to statistical physics. After several years as an IT expert at SQLI (consulting company in Paris), he joined the data.ia community at onepoint (digital transformation architects) as a data science team leader. For the past few years, he has been particularly interested in deep learning, graph neural networks and NLP from an applied mathematics perspective. He is the lead author of the book Big Data et Machine Learning (Dunod 2019) and co-author of the book Le traitement automatique des langues (Dunod 2020). He is a contributor to the Towards Data Science blog.

Nathanaël BEAU

PhD Student
Nathanaël BEAU is in his second year of PhD at the Laboratoire de Linguistique Formelle at Paris Cité University under the supervision of Benoît Crabbé. After obtaining his engineering degree at Arts et Métiers, he started his thesis on the subject of generating Python code from a natural language description. He approaches this question as a translation problem and is particularly interested in model optimization in low-ressources environment. He participated in the international conference Association for Computational Linguistics 2022 that took place in Dublin in May.
