Long-Lived Nuclear Magnetization in Dilute Para-Water (DiluteParaWater)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
The magnetization of hydrogen nuclei in H2O constitutes the basis of most applications of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI.) Only ortho-water, where the two proton spins are in states that are symmetric with respect to permutation, features NMR-allowed transitions. Para-water is analogous to para-hydrogen, where the two proton spins are anti-symmetric with respect to permutation. The objective of t ...

Invariant Representations for High-Dimensional Signal Classifications (InvariantClass)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,
Considerable amounts of high-dimensional signals are continuously being acquired, whether audio, images, videos, or specialized signals for example in geophysics or medicine. Automatic classification and retrieval is strongly needed to analyze and access these massive data sets, but current algorithms often produce too many errors. For high-dimensional signals, supervised classification algorithms ...

Spike-based predictive coding: Closing the loop between neural dynamics and computation (Predispike)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
Progress in understanding brain functions rely in great part on filling the conceptual and experimental gaps between different levels of analysis, from single neurons to behaviour. Thus, “rate models”, units of representations are the mean activity of large neural populations, while function and behaviour emerge from the responses of very large networks. While experimental investigations have foc ...

The Adaptive Auditory Mind (ADAM)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
Listening in realistic situations is an active process that engages perceptual and cognitive faculties, endowing speech with meaning, music with joy, and environmental sounds with emotion. Through hearing, humans and other animals navigate complex acoustic scenes, separate sound mixtures, and assess their behavioral relevance. These remarkable feats are currently beyond our understanding and excee ...

Dynamics and Thermodynamics in Mixed Dimensions (ThermoDynaMix)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
In ThermoDynamix, we explore experimentally and theoretically the physics of ultracold mixtures of particles evolving in a different number of dimensions. We will realize experimentally a mixed-dimensional system by laser trapping an ultracold mixture of fermionic 6Li and 40K atoms. By tuning the wavelength of the trapping laser, we will create a potential that will almost not affect Lithium, and ...

Divided Metacognition: when epistemic norms conflict (DIVIDNORM)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
The present project aims to provide a naturalistic account of epistemic norms, and of the associated epistemic awareness in children and adults from different cultures. Epistemics norms (ENs) such as intelligibility, relevance, truth, coherence and consensus are dimensions on which mental contents can be evaluated for their contribution to knowledge acquisition. Although EN sensitivity is central ...

Decision-making and prefrontal executive function (FRONTEX)
Date du début: 1 mai 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
"The prefrontal cortex (PFC) subserves decision-making and executive control, i.e. the ability to make decisions and to regulate behavior according to external events, mental models of situations, internal drives and subjective preferences. Our overall aim is to understand the functional architecture of the human PFC and computational mechanisms of PFC function. The PFC function is known to operat ...

A study on the interaction among natural selection, mutation and recombination, with Caenorhabditis elegans experimental evolution (EXPTEVOLCELEGANS)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
The process of adaptation to novel environments is of extraordinary importance to understand the existence of biological diversity. The development of a theory of adaptation during the last 150 years identified natural selection as its cause, and the conditions under which it depends on the existence of the heritable variation encoded in DNA sequences, introduced in finite populations by mutation, ...

A Dynamic View on Conscious and Unconscious Processes (DYNAMIND)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
"Distinguishing between conscious and unconscious processes is a fundamental issue for our understanding of the human mind. Most research on this topic has been limited to a static perspective, by studying static stimuli, by considering processing as a function of present information, and by focusing on a single, adult stage of development. Yet, both conscious and unconscious mental processes are ...
