user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Impurities in Colloidal Materials - tuning the properties of crystals, powders and glasses'.

assistant: **Innovation**

We aim to establish an multidisciplinary research programme that is focussed on the underlying structural and dynamical processes which determine the intimate relation between impurities and material properties. We propose to exploit the advantages of colloidal model systems and study the impact of impurities on the structural and dynamical properties of crystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous colloidal solids using a combination of state-of-the art fast confocal microscopy and three-dimensional holographic optical laser tweezers. We plan to achieve control over the subtle interplay between glass formation and crystallisation by the tuned addition of impurities. We envisage that our approach will not only offer a direct entry into key mechanisms like impurity drag, but will also allow us to directly and quantitatively measure the central forces at play such as the Zener pinning force. We also aim to study the glass transition from a completely new point of view by tuning the structure using impurities and subsequently ‘freezing-in’ part of the system using holographic optical tweezing. This approach could lead to the determination of a thermodynamic signature of the glass transition, which would put the glass transition in a completely new perspective.  In addition, we will investigate the relation between the presence of impurities and the (micro)mechanical properties of doped colloidal materials using (micro)rheological techniques. This ambitious project opens up a huge range of exciting possibilities to gain deep and fundamental understanding of the relation between the (micro)mechanical properties of glasses, polycrystals and crystals and the presence of impurities; a prerequisiute for exploiting these effects in tailoring the properties of materials.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Novel Devulcanization Machine for Industrial and Tyre Rubber Recycling'.

assistant: **Innovation**

DEVULC is a novel rubber recycling technology based on a cost-effective devulcanization process which uses supercritical CO2 instead of chemical solvents banned by the REACH directive. DEVULC can reclaim valuable manufacturing scrap such as tyre rubber crumb, EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), and Silicone rubber, and it can deal with spent and used rubber materials (rubber seals, used tyres, etc.) that are sufficiently clean, and with waste (scrap cut-off) when new rubber products are manufactured create a new 100% recycled material: DEVULC TPV. The process is socially responsible, environmentally sustainable and economically viable. No chemical solvents are used, devulcanization takes 1 min, and there is a 99% crumb conservation. DEVULC TPV is a versatile material that can be engineered to provide a range of properties. It has a consistent quality and can be incorporated in up to 25% content for the production of new rubber products. DEVULC will positively impact the industrial rubber and the tyre rubber markets. It will develop a recycling method which complies with the environmental standards imposed in the EU. It results in a recycled material fully compliant with the restrictive standards for automotive industry. It will impact large rubber manufacturers which will built inside their installations a DEVULC recycling plant working in continuous with the rubber production chain for the recycling of the scrap cut-offs. The recycled material could be entyrely used by this large company. Plants located near a pole of rubber producers, to jointly manage all residues, can benefit from the scale-size effect. Technically, different lines could be operated for different rubber types. Finally, waste sorting plants could benefit from a DEVULC plant built in their facili

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Cognitive Image Understanding: Image representations and Multimodal learning' (COGNIMUND).

assistant: **Innovation**

One of the primary and most appealing goals of computer vision is to automatically understand the content of images on a cognitive level. Ultimately we want to have computers interpret images as we humans do, recognizing all the objects, scenes, and people as well as their relations as they appear in natural images or video. With this project, I want to advance the state of the art in this field in two directions, which I believe to be crucial to build the next generation of image understanding tools. First, novel more robust yet descriptive image representations will be designed, that incorporate the intrinsic structure of images. These should already go a long way towards removing irrelevant sources of variability while capturing the essence of the image content. I believe the importance of further research into image representations is currently underestimated within the research community, yet I claim this is a crucial step with lots of opportunities good learning cannot easily make up for bad features. Second, weakly supervised methods to learn from multimodal input (especially the combination of images and text) will be investigated, making it possible to leverage the large amount of weak annotations available via the internet. This is essential if we want to scale the methods to a larger number of object categories (several hundreds instead of a few tens). As more data can be used for training, such weakly supervised methods might in the end even come on par with or outperform supervised schemes. Here we will call upon the latest results in semi-supervised learning, datamining, and computational linguistics.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Homotopy theory of cosimplicial unstable (co-)algebras over the Steenrod algebra'.

assistant: **Concept**

This research proposal is in mathematics, its content is part of algebraic topology and homotopy theory. It aims at deepening our understanding of the homotopy theory of cosimplicial unstable (co-)algebras over the Steenrod algebra and its relation to the homotopy theory of cosimplicial spaces. This is achieved by new methods developed recently by the ER (Dr. Biedermann) and coauthors and by methods from Goodwillie calculus. Specifically, there are three closely related parts/work packages: 1. Prove a general vanishing theorem of higher obstructions for realizing a map on homology as a map of spaces. The theorem is known to hold in rational homotopy and in the mod p Massey-Peterson case. 2. Find an algebraic description of the first obstruction living in Andre-Quillen cohomology (AQC) to the existence of a realization of unstable coalgebras. 3. Define natural operations on AQC of unstable coalgebras with general coefficients.As part of the risk management we describe two further fallback projects: 4. Study the Goodwillie tower of the identity functor of simplicial unstable algebras and relate its layers to AQC. 5. Describe the algebra of homotopy operations on simplicial commutative algebras for odd primes p. These projects are parts of a program of the ER to investigate realization problems and rigidity results associated to singular (co-)homology. A longterm goal (beyond the time frame of the fellowship) is to develop a deformation theory of unstable (co-)algebras over the Steenrod algebra and their realizing homotopy types in the mod p case.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Towards a European Network of Excellence in Biological Dosimetry' (TENEB).

assistant: **Innovation**

In recent years a number of accidents have occurred that show the necessity to be prepared for a possible large-scale radiological accident or a terrorist attack, where the casualties will be members of the public. The accident may likely have an international scale and the radiation exposure can range from very low to substantial. An important initial step in the medical response to large-scale radiological accident is the triage of patients according to the severity of exposure. Here, an essential tool of doses assessment is biological dosimetry. It allows confirming or rejecting the doses suggested by the clinical triage.  In Europe there are several laboratories with considerable experience in biological dosimetry. Each laboratory can easily perform biological dose assessment for incidents involving a few people. However, in a large-scale radiological accident or terrorist outrage the number of people that may need to be screened could easily exceed the capacity of a single laboratory. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop a European network of laboratories involved in biological dosimetry in order to be prepared for a radiological mass casualty. It should be mentioned that biodosimetry networking has already been recognised as a sensible and worthwhile emergency response capability in several regions of the world (USA, South America, Canada, Japan), however, not in Europe.  The objectives of this CSA-SA is to define the framework of a NoE in biological dosimetry and to perform a feasibility study to determine its viability. The final report will be accompanied by statements of intent from the key organisations committing themselves to sustainable integration of their research in the area of biological dosimetry. The report will form the background to the consid

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'The Just City: The Ciceronian Conception of Justice and Its Reception in the Western Tradition' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

One of the most innovative, and historically most influential, notions in the Western debate about justice is the political theory of Cicero (106-43 BCE). This project examines the ways a Ciceronian conception of justice came to be used in political argument at specific inflection points in the history of political thought. Ciceronian justice, responding to the breakdown of order, marked a significant departure from earlier Greek theories of justice. Cicero’s law-centered views on justice, both within and between states, were conceived against moral skepticism and shaped the later history of Western political thought in crucial ways.Cicero’s contribution has been obscured by philological trends keen on crediting Cicero’s political and ethical thought to Greek predecessors, on the one hand, and by the recent historiography on republicanism on the other. Neither of these can answer satisfyingly why Cicero’s legalized conception of justice has impacted Western political theory so thoroughly. How and why did Cicero distinguish his notion of justice from his predecessors? How did his conception come to influence both theory and institutions of justice until the enlightenment and beyond?The project challenges conventional views by focusing on crucial crossroads Cicero’s conception of justice faced from its inception in the late Roman Republic to early modern Europe. Bringing an innovative focus on the longue durée to the topic and bringing together methodological tools from intellectual history, ancient history and philosophy, and legal history, the project provides a deep historical perspective of Cicero’s conception of justice and its later reception. This reinterpretation of the intellectual history of justice in the West reevaluates the historical logic of Ciceronian just

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Model-based Reinforcement Learning for Versatile Robots in the Real World' (REAL-RL).

assistant: **Innovation**

REAL-RL proposes a path to autonomous robots that learn from experience. By learning to solve new and challenging tasks and exploiting their specific capabilities, they could become ubiquitous assistants to humans in an uncountable number of tasks. Current control strategies for robots are developed only for particular tasks and are not versatile. To ensure their functioning, it is necessary to have highly accurate physical models that precisely match all the essential aspects of the real world. REAL-RL follows a different path: a learning approach to robot control. The dominant direction in the field uses model-free reinforcement learning methods that need an incredible number of interactions with the world – often prohibitive for real robots. As a bypass, simulations are used but require detailed knowledge of all possible situations that the robot might encounter. These problems are circumvented in REAL-RL by proposing a model-based approach. Models of the interaction with the world are learned from experience and will be used to plan and adapt behavior on the fly. This approach promises to be much more data-efficient and allows to transfer of valuable experience between tasks. Fundamental challenges in model-learning, safety-aware exploration and planning, and higher-order reasoning are identified and presented here with concrete novel solution ideas, such as a causal inductive bias for deep dynamics models, risk-aware real-time general trajectory optimization, and differentiable discrete planning. Critical stepping stones, such as probabilistic models and fast trajectory planning, have just been developed by the community, and the applicant. By aiming at a generic learning method that can be used to control any robot – rigid or soft – with legs, arms, or other end-e

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'High-level fuzzy control of complex processes'.

assistant: **Concept**

Fuzzy systems have been recognised as an attractive alternative to classical control schemes for the low-cost and simple design of the control laws of imperfectly known, non-linear and complex processes. Fuzzy control has been successfully applied to a large number of consumer products and industrial processes, but the applications reported are usually at low control level. However, the definition of fuzzy sets itself suggests that the most appropriate use of fuzzy systems is at higher levels of control. Therefore, the great potential of this approach is at supervisory and planning levels where human knowledge is involved in a decision making process. The proposed research work consists of the development of a new generation of fuzzy controllers, dedicated to high-level control, thus, able to deal with several, possibly hierarchical, control levels and different control goals. The developed fuzzy controllers will be applied to different non-linear complex processes to evaluate their performance.

user: Explain how 'zero-CO2 cemeNt ThRough cArBonation of cAlcium Silicates and aluminateS' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

CONTRABASS: zero-CO2 cemeNt ThRough cArBonation of cAlcium Silicates and aluminateS.We live in a world of concrete. According to the Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA) cement is consumed at a rate of ~150 tonnes each second, and it accounts for approximately 8% of all CO2 emissions and 7% of industry energy use. In order to mitigate the negative environmental impacts of concrete, Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) is the best available strategy: the GCCA estimates that CCU technologies will represent up to 42% of the CO2 reductions necessary to reach the net zero industrial objective in 2050. The CONTRABASS MSCA-DN will act in this framework, in the pathway towards the zero-CO2 cement and concrete production, building a high-quality doctorate network (DN) to investigate the fundamental physico-chemical processes governing the Carbonation of the clinker phases and the cement paste, as well as the subsequent formation of Calcium Carbonate Cements (CCCs). The carbonation ability of clinker and cement is well known, yet for a full implementation of CCCs by 2050, there is an urgent need of fundamental knowledge on the carbonation process. In this scenario, the CONTRABASS DN aims to contribute to the global reduction of CO2 emissions by accelerating the implementation of Calcium Carbonate Cements, developing fundamental knowledge, practical know-how, and a generation of well-trained specialists to overcome the main challenges identified by our industrial and academic partners. CONTRABASS has 5 main objectives:1. To identify the carbonation mechanisms of the clinker components, specially calcium aluminates 2. To understand the carbonation processes of the C-S-H gel and the cement paste3. To unravel the factors that govern CaCO3 polymorphism, nucleation and growth
