Best PhD thesis award from EDSTIC (2021) at Université Côte d'Azur
Lyes Khacef has received the first thesis prize from the STIC doctoral school in Université Côte d’Azur. The thesis discusses the modeled self-organizing artificial neural networks thanks to a mechanism of structural plasticity to create or cut connections, as well as a mechanism of synaptic plasticity which allows to modify the strength of these connections.

Le travail de Lyes a pour but d'explorer de nouvelles méthodes d'IA bio-inspirée. Il s'inspire du fonctionnement du cerveau humain, et plus précisément de la plasticité corticale, l'une de ses principales caractéristiques qui nous permet d'apprendre et de nous adapter.
