assistant: **Impact**

Research objectives and content This project is interested in the neural locomotion controller of lampregs. It has as objective to develop artificial neural control- lers and compare them with the biological model. This research has a double motivation : firstly to study the alternative possibilities Nature could have choses to obtain adapted controllers and secondly to evaluate how good Genetic Algorithms are as tool for creating neural controllers for a specific task. The project will be achieved in three stages : 1) simulation the biological model (reproduction of ekeberg's work) 2) development of encodings and fitness functions in order to evolve artificial controllers 3) Comparison of the artificial and biological networks The thesis will also make a review of dynamic neural networks Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) applied to control theory. The main benefit of this project is to use a new tool (Evolutionary Algorithms) in a recent field (Dynamic Neural Networks for robot control) I kope this PHD will provide me a deep knowledge of both promising fields.

The pan-European character of the proposed network will offer challenging opportunities to young researchers at the post-doctoral level to benefit working since 1993 on the PREC8 project of prenormative research in support for their training from a wide spectrum of expertise and research of Eurocode 8 (EC8), the provisional European standards for the design of facilities in earthquake engineering and structural dynamics. In view of structures in seismic regions. The results of PREC8 in the areas of reinforced concrete structures, infilled frames, bridges and foundations the combined analytical/experimental nature of the proposed projects, the are expected to contribute significantly to the revision of EC8 upon its researchers will be given the possibility of developing numerical conversion into European norms. The present ICONS project extends the scope simulation models in advanced computer environments and of participating in large-scale tests using shaking table and reaction wall facilities. of PREC8 into less conventional concepts and subjects which should be developed further to convert EC8 into a truly revolutionary standard for Furthermore, the young researchers will have an excellent opportunity to be introduced to the harmonized design rules for Europe contained in Eurocode the safe, yet economic design of earthquake resistant new structures and for the seismic upgrading of existing ones.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Vitamin biosynthesis as a target for antimalarial therapy' (VITBIOMAL).

assistant: **Concept**

Plasmodium falciparum causes severe malaria and about 2 million human deaths annually. The main obstacle to combat the disease is increasing resistance of the parasites to existing drugs and the lack of a protective vaccine. Therefore, it is imperative that new suitable drug targets in the parasite?s metabolism are identified, assessed and validated. The availability of the parasite's genome sequence offers an excellent tool to identify metabolic pathways potentially essential for parasite survival. Scrutinising the Plasmodium genomes revealed that they possess biosynthetic pathways for vitamins. Vitamins are organic compounds required in small amounts to ensure normal metabolic functions. Since they are not synthesized by humans, they need to be supplied via nutrients in trace amounts. The absence of vitamin biosynthesis in humans suggests that specific targeting of these parasite pathways with inhibitors is feasible and thus vitamin biosynthesis of Plasmodium might offer excellent potential for the development of novel chemotherapeutics against malaria with specific toxicity towards the parasites without affecting the host's metabolism. In the first instance we will focus on vitamin B6 biosynthesis, as this important nutrient is required as a co-factor for a wide variety of essential metabolic functions in protein and amino acid metabolism and also has been implicated in the defence against oxidative stress in other eukaryotes. Using reverse genetic approaches we will validate the suitability of two of the vitamin B6 synthesising enzymes Pdx1 and Pdx2 respectively, as drug targets. In addition, their precise biological functions and potential interactions with other cellular components will be analyzed. Further the biochemical, biophysical and structural features of b

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'REAL WORLD APPLICATIONS OF ROBUST DIALOGUE' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

REWARD is developing a tool for the design and implementation of automatic dialogue-based telephone services for applications such as call-centre automation and telesurveying. The tool is intended to help non-technical staff design and operate automated teleservices without specialist intervention. The system comes with a library of reusable dialogue components allowing dialogues to be flexibly constructed. It will be designed to support activities like continuous speech, and word or phrase spotting as well as speech output. Within the project, it will be used to build and field-test several different teleservices.http://cswww.essex.ac.uk/EIP/vocalis.htmlTwo major phases of work have been completed: User Requirements Study and Specification and Technical Preparation. Market analysis data has also been compiled for each of the industries represented in the project. Work on Technical Specification was well under way by the end of the first year. Market Analysis Although growth of the telecommunications market has been evident in the well established business areas of telephony and fax communications, growth in mobile services (phones and pagers) has been the most dramatic. The number of mobile phones in Europe is estimated to have grown by over 57% in the last year whereas average growth in service revenues for all telecommunications sectors for the top 15 public telephone operators was 11.2% for the year 1994-95. There is an increasing trend towards augmenting or replacing human telephone service agents with automatic voice processing systems which use touch tone or speech recognition as the main medium of human-computer communication. The global market for voice processing in 1996 was estimated to be around $2.1 billion, rising to $5.8 billion by 2001 (source: Ovum). Wi

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Sparse Composite Likelihood Inference in Count Time Series' (SCouT).

assistant: **Innovation**

The availability of many interesting datasets consisting of count time series has motivated a steadily increasing research activity towards the development of appropriate statistical models. Nowadays, a variety of time series models constructed on the basis of the integer-valued property of count data is available. However, their practical usefulness is often limited because of difficulties to implement efficient estimation procedures. These difficulties grow significantly when higher-order autoregressive and moving average terms are included in the model or when multivariate time series data are considered. The SCouT project aims to enhance the flexibility of time series models for counts and facilitate their application to data characterized by complex dependence structures. To this end, the SCouT project proposes an innovative methodological approach that integrates two powerful statistical tools, that is sparsity techniques and composite likelihood methods. The project will provide a unified framework for simultaneous order selection and estimation of autoregressive and moving average terms in count time series models, reducing considerably the computational burden of traditional model selection approaches and improving the predictive performance of the fitted model. The potential of the suggested methodology will be further highlighted by investigating its extensions to spatial and spatio-temporal data that are usually characterized by complex dependence structures. Such data are often met in the field of temporal and spatial analysis of public health surveillance data that will be the main application field of the project.  The simultaneous order selection and estimation procedure established by the SCouT project will offer great support to statistical methods for

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project '4D-EEG: A new tool to investigate the spatial and temporal activity patterns in the brain' (4D-EEG) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Our first goal is to develop a new tool to determine brain activity with a high temporal (< 1 msec) and spatial (about 2 mm) resolution with the focus on motor control. High density EEG (up to 256 electrodes) will be used for EEG source localization. Advanced force-controlled robot manipulators will be used to impose continuous force perturbations to the joints. Advanced closed-loop system identification algorithms will identify the dynamic EEG response of multiple brain areas to the perturbation, leading to a functional interpretation of EEG. The propagation of the signal in time and 3D space through the cortex can be monitored: 4D-EEG. Preliminary experiments with EEG localization have shown that the continuous force perturbations resulted in a better signal-to-noise ratio and coherence than the current method using transient perturbations..4D-EEG will be a direct measure of the neural activity in the brain with an excellent temporal response and easy to use in combination with motor control tasks. The new 4D-EEG method is expected to provide a breakthrough in comparison to functional MRI (fMRI) when elucidating the meaning of cortical map plasticity in motor learning.Our second goal is to generate and validate new hypotheses about the longitudinal relationship between motor learning and cortical map plasticity by clinically using 4D-EEG in an intensive, repeated measurement design in patients suffering from a stroke. The application of 4D-EEG combined with haptic robots will allow us to discover how dynamics in cortical map plasticity are related with upper limb recovery after stroke in terms of neural repair and using behavioral compensation strategies while performing a meaningful motor tasks.. The non-invasive 4D-EEG technique combined with haptic robots will open

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Peptide-based diodes for solar cells' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

In a solar cell that converts energy as efficient as the natural plant photosystems, electrons should travel over very short distances, through an extremely ordered structure free of traps. Guided by these principles that were worked out at WIS and CUNY, we want to synthesize many different peptides, and consecutively screen variants thereof for a putative diode function. When linked to light-harvesting building blocks, these should yield a novel type of solar cell that is based on biomimetic principles. To achieve these goals, UPC will chemically synthesize a panel of artificial building blocks that are designed to harvest light and/or tunnel electrons. When assembled into many different peptides, some of these constructs are expected to function as a diode, and, when linked to light-harvesting molecules, as a solar cell. Peptides will be embedded into a self-assembled monolayer of alkanethiols on individual gold pads of a computer chip, which will be designed and manufactured by IMS. Each individual peptide can be addressed by feeding in, and at the same time measuring, the amount of current flow in both directions through the gold pads of the individual pixels. A similar kind of screen should then detect a functional peptide-based solar cell. 10.000 Peptides per cm(+2) will be synthesized by a particle based combinatorial synthesis recently developed by KIT-G and PPP. These peptides will be transferred in the array format to the chip where they couple to the gold pads. Therein, peptides will be coupled through cysteine residues to the flat gold surface, where they are embedded into a membrane-like structure. We expect that our evolution inspired approach may open a novel route to very efficient, and very cheap solar cells. This is due to the small percolation distanc

user: Explain how 'Scalable DSP algorithms for high performance hardware applied to 5G MaMi systems' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

There is persistent demand for radical advancements in telecommunication systems.  The digital baseband processing unit (or Digital Signal Processor – DSP) is of paramount importance for the overall performance and it consumes a significant part of the total power. Breakthroughs in terms of accuracy, speed and efficiency are required in custom DSP implementations. To this end we propose to employ ideas that lead to advances in quantum algorithms for scientific computing to obtain silicon integrated circuit implementations meeting the performance expectations. Our experience and the similarities in the efficiency and accuracy requirements between such quantum algorithms and custom silicon-based integrated circuit design have not been exploited. This has a huge potential for obtaining high performance DSP cores in 5G MaMi systems.We propose to derive DSP algorithms and corresponding digital circuits with performance guarantees in terms of accuracy and speed. In some cases we will be deriving entirely new algorithms and circuits. In others we will investigate the degree to which the existing quantum algorithms for scientific computing can be used as a basis to derive efficient custom integrated circuits for DSP. To address the efficiency requirements and to control the error propagation we propose a modular approach. Algorithms will be composed by combining modules performing sub-tasks.  Digital circuits with a priori known error and cost characteristics will be used to implement the different modules. This allows the comparison of the trade-offs between implementation alternatives and paves the way toward fully automatic overall resource optimization in DSP design. The proposed approach will provide a new and sound methodology to design and test custom integrated circuits

To improve its resilience to new CBRN attacks and threats, the EU needs a specialized, efficient and sustainable industry, competitive on a less fragmented EU market and globally. Capitalizing on its experience in the EDEN Demonstration Project, in other CBRN relevant projects, and in the CBRN market and supply chain, the ENCIRCLE consortium proposes an innovative approach to reach this goal in a short to long term perspective so that SMEs and large industries can propose and invest in the best innovations on the market.This approach results in 5 objectives aimed at prompting the innovation and business development, and filling market gaps in the project timeframe: 1. Create an open and neutral EU CBRN cluster,2. Provide a sustainable and flexible vision and roadmap for the development of the European CBRN market and innovations,3. Provide integration with platforms (systems, tools, services, products) by proposing standardized interfaces and future EU standards to integrate CBRN technologies and innovations developed from the Part b projects,4. Support CBRN safety, security and defence commercial and market services,5. Improve and facilitate European CBRN dissemination and exploitation.The project will be conducted by a consortium of specialized industries, trade associations and research organisations with flexible and lean procedures under the advice of the EC Community of Users. It will rely on two large interactive communities: practitioners and customers, and industrial and technological providers, the latter including many SMEs. To optimize the needs and gaps assessment and the innovation development, acceptance and success, ENCIRCLE will establish formal links with other consortia such as the future Part b projects.The main expected impact is to enhance the EU C
