user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Connectivity in Complex Networks of interacting stochastic nonlinear systems. Applications in neuroscience'.

assistant: **Concept**

The context of the project is the study of networks of interacting nonlinear systems with application to neuroscience. The project adresses two timely and innovative questions: - Are we able to estimate the connectivity/directivity graph from the observation? - What is the influence of the network topology on the information processing of the network? To answer the questions we develop four tracks of research: 1- Practical inference for connectivity and directivity in complex networks (statistics, kernel methods, information theory) 2- Synthesis of multivariate signals interacting according to a complex network. (stochastic processes) 3- Information processing by pooling networks (information theory, modeling of neural of spiking neurons) 4- Taking into account directionality : directed information theory in neural networks (feedback/feedforward in neural networks) Outgoing phase of the project hosted by the University of Melbourne, Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics with collaboration with the neuroengineering group and the Center for Neural engineering. Return phase hosted by CNRS/ GIPSAlab, Grenoble, France. Expected outcomes and benefits for the EU includes: 1- The design of a practical methodology for inference of connectivity/directionality between signals with nonproperties (nonstationarity, nonGaussianity, ...). Designed for neuroscience applications, but easily extended to other scientific domains. 2. Enriched understanding of the influence of the topology of networks onto information processing. 3. Enriched understanding of the importance of feedback/feedforward onto the information processing of neural networks. Anticipated related outcome includes improvements in prostheses, brain computer interfaces, better understanding in diseases such as epilepsy. Expec

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Small Summaries for Big Data'.

assistant: **Objectives**

A fundamental challenge in processing the massive quantities of information generated by modern applications is in extracting suitable representations of the data that can be stored, manipulated and interrogated on a single machine.  A promising approach is in the design and analysis of compact summaries: data structures which capture key features of the data, and which can be created effectively over distributed data sets.  Popular summary structures include the Bloom filter, which compactly represents a set of items, and sketches which allow vector norms and products to be estimated.  These are very attractive, since they can be computed in parallel and combined to yield a single, compact summary of the data. Yet the full potential of summaries is far from being fully realized. The Principal Investigator will lead a team, working on important problems around creating Small Summaries for Big Data.  The goal is to substantially advance the state of the art in data summarization, to the point where accurate and effective summaries are available for a wide array of problems, and can be used seamlessly in applications that process big data.  Several directions will be pursued, including: designing and evaluating new summaries for fundamental computations such as tracking the data distribution;  summary techniques for complex structures, such as massive matrices, massive graphs, and beyond;  and summaries that allow the verification of outsourced computation over big data.  Success in any one of these areas could lead to substantial impact on practice, as evidenced by the influence of existing summarytechniques. Support in the form of a five-year research grant will allow the PI to consolidate his research in this area, and build an expert team to focus on these challenging

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Statistical and probabilistic properties for weakly chaotic systems' (ErgodicHyperbolic), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The purpose of the project is to study limit laws and mixing properties for weakly chaotic systems. The theory of strongly chaotic systems has been extensively developed in the last decades and there are now methods that can be used in studying their statistical properties: e.g. a functional analytic approach (transfer operators, anisotropic Banach spaces) or a geometric approach (distribution of stable and unstable foliations). However much less is known for systems which do not have such a strong chaotic behavior and in particular are of zero entropy. In the project I plan to develop general methods to study many natural classes of systems which exhibit slower (or weaker) notions of randomness (or chaos), e.g. suspension flows. I plan to study mixing and statistical properties of such systems with the goal of characterizing their chaotic behavior and compare it with strongly chaotic systems. In particular, I also plan to study the infinite measure case where the theory has not yet been developed and where possibly other notions of mixing have to be developed.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Characterizing ligand-protein interactions with a cryo-EM data-driven modeling approach', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Visualizing protein-ligand interactions at atomic details is key to understand how ligands regulate macromolecular function. This knowledge could be leveraged to develop pharmaceutics utilizing the structure-based drug discovery platform. However, determining experimental structures of such complexes is often difficult using theVisualizing protein-ligand interactions at atomic details is key to understand how ligands regulate macromolecular function. This knowledge could be leveraged to develop pharmaceutics utilizing the structure-based drug discovery (SBDD) platform. However, determining experimental structures of such complexes is often difficult using the traditional time-consuming approach of hunting for suitable crystals for X-ray analysis. Recent breakthroughs in single-particle cryo-EM have overcome this limitation and enabled us to obtain atomic resolution structures of complex biomolecular systems. Though cryo-EM can now provide very high-resolution data of the overall system (less than 2 angstroms in many cases), unfortunately, resolutions of ligands are often significantly low to be useful for SBDD. Parallel to developments in cryo-EM, computational methods for modeling and refining structures into EM maps have been developed, but their main focus has been to build accurate protein structures. Here, I propose to exploit the increased computing power of molecular dynamics simulations offered by high-performance computing and algorithm development to develop a cryo-EM data-driven computational modeling approach to fit ligands into low-resolution EM maps. After testing in a large data set, this approach will be applied to identify ligand binding sites in new EM maps of a membrane protein and investigate how binding regulates the functional landscape of proteins

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Gome data interpretation validation and application.'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Experience with the space experiments similar to GOME (e.g. TOMS) has demonstrated the need for long term monitoring of the performance of the instrument in-flight calibration systems and validation of the data products. Errors in the data products from space experiments arise from a variety of factors: degradation of the instrument performance, instability of retrieval algorithms, changes in knowledge or assumptions about molecular absorption cross sections and atmospheric scattering parameters. The GODIVA proposal addresses specifically the need to monitor the behaviour of GOME and its data products. Advanced data products from GOME measurements are potentially of great importance for the European atmospheric, climate and meteorological user communities planning to use both GOME and OMI data. The second focus of this proposal aims to investigate the current status and develop further scientific algorithms suitable for later use in operational processing. The following potential GOME products have been selected for study in this project: global 03 vertical profiles, global NO2 columns, BrO and OCIO products, polar stratospheric clouds. In order to ensure effective use of the GOME data we incorporate a database facility and the EUMETSAT ozone SAF as partner in this project. The database facility already provides an established service to scientific and operational End Users. The European ozone SAF needs an operational OMI (GOME) data processing system to be ready by the year 2002. GODIVA will be an important step in achieving this objective. In conclusion this study will provide important information about the accuracy of existing and advanced products from the remote sensing instrument GOME and its successor OMI. It will improve the effective use of these data by scien

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Making Africa Urban: The transcalar politics of large-scale urban development' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

This project will investigate how urban futures  are made through different global circuits and in turn shape key transnational processes: geopolitics, development and private investment, through a close focus on the transnational actors and decision-making processes involved in large-scale developments and interventions in selected African cities. The research will produce: new theoretical perspectives on urban politics and policy-relevant understandings of state capacity and land value capture in urban development. The project brings to fruition the applicants agenda-setting post-colonial critique in urban studies (2006, Ordinary Cities, Routledge), practically worked through in her recent innovations in comparative urbanism (forthcoming, Comparative Urbanism, Sage). This research will bring forward original empirical findings and develop further the innovative comparative methods tested in a recent esrc funded project. It will contribute theorizations of the new territories of global urban politics, starting in African contexts. Engagements with residents, stakeholders, policy makers and practitioners will build understanding of how better urban outcomes might be secured. The project compares three transnational circuits and nine cases of urban development in three cities (Accra, Dar es Salaam, Lilongwe) where all three circuits have a strong presence, and which encompass a range of levels of urbanization and economic development. Focussing on transnationalised urban development processes and the widely spread phenomenon of large scale urban developments will provide a basis to work against the neglect and exceptionalism of African experiences within urban studies, an important motivation for this project. The research seeks to build African based research capacity i

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Pathways to phase-out contentious inputs from organic agriculture in Europe' (Organic-PLUS) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

The Organic-PLUS project has the overall aim of providing high quality, trans-disciplinary, scientifically informed decision support to help all actors in the organic sector, including national and regional policy makers, to reach the next level of the EU’s organic success story. By doing so organic food systems can be more true to organic principles but equally to the EU Bioeconomy agenda. Organic-PLUS objectives are to: 1) identify and valorise contentious inputs currently used in European agriculture 2) provide specific technical solutions to minimise or phase-out their use 3) provide environmental, social and economic assessments of phase-out scenarios 4) disseminate and broker knowledge, ideas and results to maximise impact. We use a trans-disciplinary research approach; the consortium includes 11 universities and 15 multi-actors from 9 EU and 3 associated countries. We combine scientists from many academic disciplines with advisors, farmers and other stakeholders in participatory research design. Organic-PLUS has three large ‘topical’ workpackages called PLANT (researching alternatives to copper and mineral oils), LIVESTOCK (researching alternatives to synthetic vitamins, antibiotics and novel animal bedding) and SOIL (researching alternatives to peat, animal-derived fertilisers and plastic mulch). The topical work is supported by IMPACT (researching consumer conceptions of contentious inputs and disseminating knowledge together with stakeholders) and by MODEL (using sustainability assessment methodology to deliver phasing-out scenarios). The LEAD workpackage is also responsible for managing the International Scientific and the European Industry advisory boards ensuring impact to industry and policy development. The results of the project are disseminated through

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Mapping air quality with high accuracy and high-spatial resolution' (MappingAir).

assistant: **Innovation**

Air pollution is a major problem for public health. According to WHO outdoor air pollution kills 4 million people, mostly in cities, every year. That’s more than HIV, malaria and influenza combined. Air pollution is estimated to cost approximately 2% of Gross Domestic Product in developed countries and 5% in developing countries. The problem is only increasing with the unprecedented population growth in cities. In Europe, over one in four and one-third of cities surpass the legal limits set by the EU legislation regarding NO2 and PM10 respectively, pollutants that affect seriously the respiratory system. However, current air quality monitoring stations in cities are spatially very limited due to the high capital and operative expenditures. Consequently, a small number of them are installed in cities mainly used just for air quality regulation. Bettair is a Platform as a Service that permits, for the first time with low investment, to really map air an noise pollution in cities on a previously unimaginable scale based on a large deployment of outstandingly accurate gas sensors by using an advanced post-processing algorithm. The network of autonomous devices is installed in streetlights (or similar) in a dense matrix and assist cities to i) identify unknown pollution sources, and ii) to assess the impact of different environmental actions to identify the most effective ones. Thus, providing unique insights and allowing better decisions to mitigate air pollution and reduce individual exposure. We need the FTI project to internationally bring to market the developed technology, from a prototype to a product, by industrialising the hardware and scaling-up the platform. Two big and two small pilots will be carried out in order to demonstrate the accuracy, the performance, and

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The Thomson Controller is a fully pre-programmed vehicle and chassis smart control module designed to provide energy efficient and safe supervisory control to an electric vehicle powertrain.', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Heavy-duty vehicles - trucks and buses - are responsible for about a quarter of CO2 emissions from road transport in the EU and for some 6% of total EU emissions. While the noise level on a typical city street with automobile traffic averages 60-65 dB, larger vehicles like heavy trucks and diesel buses cause noise peaks ranging up to about 90 db. Every few years the European Commission applies newer and stricter regulations concerning GHG emissions, to decarbonise and modernise European transport.This impacts transit agencies’ and local governments’ budgets since due to the new European regulations, many diesel buses will have to be replaced before the end of their useful life. Acquiring new technology low-emission buses is currently a big burden for transit agencies; a modernisation of their fleets would require a serious amount of capital, as a new, purely electric bus costs in the order of €850k. Thomson Power Europe’s service retrofits existing diesel buses by replacing the conventional powertrain (engine, transmission etc.) with the Thomson Drive, turning them into green, zero emission buses with half the cost of buying a new hybrid diesel bus (or one third in the case of acquiring a pure electric bus), significantly decreasing operating costs for transport stakeholders, exploiting their existing fleet and creating significant environmental benefits. The Thomson Controller, a patented technology of Thomson Power Europe, combined with the electric drive, creates additional fuel savings and emission reduction through smoothing the acceleration curve, regenerating power from braking and by controlling and optimising the behaviour of the bus’s auxiliary systems (steering, air-conditioning etc.). The Phase 1 project will be focused on establishing a complete supply chai

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'METABOLIC BASIS OF NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASE'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common form of age-related dementia affecting millions of patients worldwide. Disturbingly, disorders of lipid and glucose metabolism emerge as major risk factors for onset and progression of neurodegeneration in the human population. Thus, an increasing life expectance combined with an observable rise in metabolic disturbances is expected to turn AD into one of the most serious health problems for future generations. Still, the molecular mechanisms whereby dysregulation of glucose and lipid homeostasis elicits noxious insults to the brain remain poorly understood. We characterized a novel class of intracellular sorting receptors, termed VPS10P domain receptors with dual roles in regulation of neuronal viability and function, but also in modulation of glucose and lipid homeostasis. Our proposal aims at elucidating an important yet poorly understood link between metabolism and neurodegeneration that converges on these receptors. Our approach is unique and novel in several ways. Thematically, our studies focus on a novel class of receptors previously not considered. Based on the receptors’ ability to act as sorting proteins, we propose faulty protein trafficking as a major unifying concept underlying neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders. Conceptually, our approach relies on the interdisciplinary effort of neuroscientists and metabolism researchers working jointly on pathophysiological pathways converging on these receptors. Through this effort, we are confident to gain important insights into the crosstalk between brain and peripheral tissues, and to elucidate pathways common to metabolic disturbances and dementia, two prevailing degenerative disorders inflicting our societies.
