user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Smart Management for Sustainable Human Environment' (SMARTEN).

assistant: **Concept**

There are increasing concerns regarding the environmental impact of human actions, the use of the environment and climate changes. These are coupled with ageing infrastructure systems, continuously growing and changing demands on the built and natural environments as well as limited financial and depleting natural resources. Until now, research has been focused on the development of proactive risk-based approaches for civil infrastructure reliability and management with benefits in improved performance, safety and cost. However, there are significant uncertainties associated with the various predictive models directly affecting the quality of the decision making mainly due to the limited amount of information available on the condition, demands and actual performance of various systems. Recently, a new generation of miniature wireless sensor platforms which utilize novel digital signal processing has emerged. These can be adopted to obtain large quantities of highly diverse sensor data that are continuously collected over a long period of time from multiple locations providing significant insight on the condition, demands and performance of the system. These developments open up a completely novel area of multidisciplinary research towards the ‘smart’ management of sustainable environment. Even though there are top research institutions working in the field of wireless sensors and others in the civil infrastructure reliability and management, most of the activity is fragmented and there is no significant activity in performing multidisciplinary structured research for developing integrated smart and dynamic systems for effective management of the built and natural environment. The aim of SmartEN is to fill this gap and push innovation through the development of an ITN n

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Molecular dissection of insulin signaling in type 2 diabetes mellitus'.

assistant: **Concept**

Skeletal muscle is the largest insulin sensitive bodily organ and plays a major role in determining glucose homeostasis. Impaired insulin action in skeletal muscle is one of the earliest steps leading Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); a metabolic disease of increasing proportions. Current therapies to treat T2DM are insufficient and insight into the molecular cause of this disease is limited. Genetic and environmental factors play a role of the development of T2DM. Therefore, elucidation of the factors deter mining insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle is of clinical importance to prevent and treat this disease. The major goal of this proposal is to elucidate the signaling pathways that regulate gene expression and insulin sensitivity on glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle from healthy and T2D people. During my doctoral studies I established muscle cultures for studies of insulin action, which I will use here to create an siRNA library to identify the role of specific protein kinases in insulin action. I will establish a 'diabetogene identification platform' based on gene expression profiling of skeletal muscle from well-characterized healthy and T2D people, as well as cultured muscle cells exposed to diverse metabolic components of the insulin resistant phenotype. I will also test whether serine phosphorylation of insulin signaling proteins impairs glucose metabolism and gene expression and whether pharmacological intervention prevents this event. I will leverage the expertise of Prof. Juleen Zierath and Dr Anna Krook to create novel reagents to ask physiologically relevant questions related to T2DM pathogenesis. This work will identify the link between constitutes of the insulin signaling pathway important for glucose metabolism and gene regulatory events. Moreover,

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Cognitive Sparse MIMO Automotive Radar with Embedded Communications: Enabling Safer Driving in Greener Environment'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Automotive radar provides a 360-degree surround sensing capability under all weather conditions and makes driving safer, with or without a hand on the steering wheel, thus presenting itself as viable and affordable solution to EU's ambitious ""Vision Zero"" goal in road safety. Future automotive radar devices need to adhere to cost and size restrictions while still addressing the required performance requirements, such as high resolution 5-Dimensional point cloud sensing, increased susceptibility to mutual interferences and embedded V2X communication in automotive sensing in a low-power, low-cost and compact design. In response to that, this fellowship aims to investigate cognitive sparse MIMO automotive radar sensing with embedded communication, which can counteract the dilemmas between performance and overhead, in turn enabling a safer driving in a greener environment. So far, no existing automotive radar has attempted to add cognizance of MIMO array configuration and transmit waveforms for performance improvement. The proposed work goes against the common regime of conventional automotive radar, where both a fixed MIMO array and transmit waveforms are assumed regardless of a dynamic road scene, and embarks upon a novel sparse automotive sensing paradigm with cognition, where array reconfigurability and waveform optimization are incorporated into the ""perception-action"" cycle by antenna selection via radio frequency switches. Successful achievements of this fellowship will lead to a timely and useful contribution to automotive radar and relevant communities, including: (1) novel techniques of joint automotive sensing and full duplex communication, (2) systematical simulations and experimental data, (3) an initial prototype implemented on a digital, software defined

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'SecondHands: A Robot Assistant For Industrial Maintenance Tasks' (SecondHands) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

The subject of this proposal is a robot assistant that is trained to understand maintenance tasks so that it can either pro-actively or as a result of prompting, offer assistance to maintenance technicians performing routine and preventative maintenance. Conceptually the robot's task is to provide a second pair of hands to the maintenance engineer, such that once the robot has been trained it can predict when and how it can usefully provide help.The robot's behavioural repertoire is learnt in a training phase that includes the monitoring of maintenance technicianactivity, the construction of a knowledge base that describes the context of a task, and a theory of action that enables dynamic behaviour generation. The result is a set of competencies coupled with an ability to recognise the state of a taskand an understanding of how these competencies can be usefully deployed given the state.The scope of work includes the construction of a robot assistant, the systems that facilitate the training, the actual training ona number of representative tasks, perceptual systems that facilitate activity recognition, and validation of the system's abilityto usefully contribute to tasks in collaboration with a maintenance engineer. Assessment of the system will test its ability to recognise when it doesn't know something as well as its ability to generalise its knowledge to previously unseen tasks.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'New paradigms for latent factor estimation' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Data is often available in matrix form, in which columns are samples, and processing of such data often entails finding an approximate factorisation of the matrix in two factors. The first factor yields recurring patterns characteristic of the data. The second factor describes in which proportions each data sample is made of these patterns. Latent factor estimation (LFE) is the problem of finding such a factorisation, usually under given constraints. LFE appears under other domain-specific names such as dictionary learning, low-rank approximation, factor analysis or latent semantic analysis. It is used for tasks such as dimensionality reduction, unmixing, soft clustering, coding or matrix completion in very diverse fields.In this project, I propose to explore three new paradigms that push the frontiers of traditional LFE. First, I want to break beyond the ubiquitous Gaussian assumption, a practical choice that too rarely complies with the nature and geometry of the data. Estimation in non-Gaussian models is more difficult, but recent work in audio and text processing has shown that it pays off in practice. Second, in traditional settings the data matrix is often a collection of features computed from raw data. These features are computed with generic off-the-shelf transforms that loosely preprocess the data, setting a limit to performance. I propose a new paradigm in which an optimal low-rank inducing transform is learnt together with the factors in a single step. Thirdly, I show that the dominant deterministic approach to LFE should be reconsidered and I propose a novel statistical estimation paradigm, based on the marginal likelihood, with enhanced capabilities. The new methodology is applied to real-world problems with societal impact in audio signal processing (spee

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Cyanated macrocycles for electron and ion transport' (CYMEIT) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The aim of the proposed project is to develop redox-active macrocycles for excellent electron and ion transporting materials. Such mixed ionic-electronic conductors are important for various state-of-the-art applications, for example organic battery electrodes, electrochemical transistors, electrochromic devices, and light-emitting electrochemical cells. So far, macrocycles are considerably underexplored regarding these applications; important aspects such as straightforward synthesis and self-assembly are usually not taken into account. The proposed project is going to change this by introducing new molecular design concepts; thereby, the project is expected to yield macrocycles with excellent electron and ion transport properties and to attract significant attention to macrocycles regarding the above mentioned applications.Cyanated paracyclophanetetraenes and related compounds with different aromatic units are selected as the target materials. Such fully unsaturated shape-persistent macrocycles often feature desirable properties, due to their strain and low conformational flexibility. Regarding the aim of electron transport, it is particularly useful that the macrocyclic structure facilitates intermolecular contacts and charge transport. Regarding the aim of ion transport, the potential self-assembly of shape-persistent macrocycles into tubular superstructures is encouraging as such structures can provide channels for the transport of ions.The specific objectives of the project are (i) the development and optimization of syntheses towards cyanated paracyclophanetetraenes using model compounds, (ii) the preparation of these cyanated macrocycles and related compounds with different aromatic units, and (iii) the investigation of their redox and self-assembly properties a

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Rigidity and classification of von Neumann algebras', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Sorin Popa's deformation/rigidity theory has lead to an enormous progress in our understanding of von Neumann algebras coming from discrete groups and their actions on probability spaces. In a five year long collaboration with Sorin Popa, we solved many long-standing open problems in this area, including superrigidity theorems for group measure space II_1 factors, results on the possible fundamental groups of II_1 factors, and uniqueness theorems for Cartan subalgebras.In the first part of the project, we want to establish new unique Cartan decomposition theorems for II_1 factors coming from hitherto intractable groups. Using methods coming from Lie groups, ergodic theory and geometric group theory, we want to reach such results for lattices in higher rank simple Lie groups, and for countable groups with nonvanishing L^2-Betti numbers. An important intermediate step will be the unique Cartan decomposition of Bernoulli crossed products.Secondly we want to prove classification theorems for type III factors that are equally strong as the existing results for the type II_1 case. This includes a complete classification of the noncommutative Bernoulli shifts of the free groups and will require an intricate combination of Tomita/Takesaki and deformation/rigidity theory.The methods developed so far bring within reach an attack on two of the most important open problems in operator algebras and functional analysis: the free group factor problem and Connes's rigidity conjecture. The exact progress on these problems is of course unforeseeable, but it is sure that the research on these problems will lead to an even deeper interaction between diverse areas of mathematics as operator algebras, group theory, functional analysis, ergodic theory, and descriptive set theory.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'EUROPEAN CITY NETWORK ON TRANSPORT INNOVATION FOR THE RATIONAL USE OF ENERGY [PHASE 1]' (ENTIRE) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of the ENTIRE project is to demonstrate the benefits that can be obtained by the use of innovative technology to improve the movement of people by transport in the urban and suburban areas; the project will focus on co-operative efforts to improve accessibility for citizens to their necessary activities through integrated actions in planning, transportation and information technology, reversing past tendencies to increase personal mobility for access to ever more dispersed activities.ENTIRE is lead by local authorities and public transport operators from eight sites, and will address the problem which is common to all our cities and is familiar to most of our citizens : the degradation of the quality of life through traffic congestion and reduced mobility and accessibility due to inefficient transport modes consuming large amounts of energy while creating large amounts of pollution.The project will lead to energy savings and other environmental benefits through a reduction in vehicle kilometres, greater fuel economy, and the use of alternative fuels.This will act as a means of progressing towards a sustainable transport system as an integral part of urban planning.The ENTIRE project represents the opportunity afforded by the Thermie programme to extend current urban transport initiatives which are focused on improving private and public transportation systems in urban areas on a common European basis. In particuliar, the application of developed technologies in an integrated approach will lead to a determination of the energy and environmental benefits in the cities involved in the project and implementation of measures through practical technology exchange to other cities. Particular emphasis is put on the demonstration of practical improvements of t
