Creative AI Meetup (December) - Paris
Paris NLP saison 9 Meetup #1 2025-11-05 · 18:30

📍Doctrine office, 190 Rue Championnet, 75018 Paris

📆 November 5th, 7:30 p.m.

👥 Boris Toledano, COO / Co-founder @ LinkUp ➡️ Beyond Web Search: Real-Time Web Intelligence for AI-Native Agents Summary: AI agents evolve. They need more than legacy search engines optimized for human clicks and ad revenue. The next frontier is AI-native web search infrastructure: systems designed to retrieve and integrate web intelligence directly into LLM-based applications. At Linkup, we're building this next generation of search by indexing the web for agents, enabling RAG across the entire web. Our API-first platform makes it simple to integrate live, structured web data into your AI stack, empowering agents and applications with continuously updated context, higher accuracy, and richer reasoning capabilities than ever before.

👥 Julien Khlaut, Machine Learning Researcher & PhD student @Raidium ➡️ Training LLM to pass the residency exam?" Summary: In the expanding field of LLMs, medical knowledge remains a significant challenge due to the specialized nature of the domain.

At Raidium, we are integrating an LLM into our AI-native PACS viewer, which is required to answer questions on all anatomy and for a large variety of pathologies while complying with privacy rules. We developed an open-source model achieving human-level performance on the French ECN (residency exam) by training LLMs on medical textbook knowledge and AI-generated questions. This allows us to self-host and keep the patient's data private.

Paris NLP saison 9 Meetup #1

​This AI Alliance event is sponsored by Ekimetrics & IBM.

The Paris AI Agent Meetup is a community for AI Agent Developers, Engineers, UX, Ops, and Applied Researchers exploring and leading the evolution of AI agents.

Accelerating sustainable inference with Pruna AI

This talk explores how to make AI faster and more sustainable. We’ll look at the high costs and carbon impact of fine-tuning and self deploying models, and show how optimization techniques available in the Pruna library can reduce size and latency with little to no quality loss.

About the Speaker

Gabriel Tregoat is the software lead at Pruna.ai, a specialist company on model inference optimisation with an open source library called “pruna”. He previously was a leader for AI in production at Ekimetrics, and started his career as a data scientist and ml-engineer at Shell Energy. He’s passionate about tech, code and new technologies.

Visual Agents: What it takes to build an agent that can navigate GUIs like humans

We’ll examine conceptual frameworks, potential applications, and future directions of technologies that can “see” and “act” with increasing independence. The discussion will touch on both current limitations and promising horizons in this evolving field.

About the Speaker

Harpreet Sahota is a hacker-in-residence and machine learning engineer with a passion for deep learning and generative AI. He’s got a deep interest in RAG, Agents, and Multimodal AI.

What I Learned About Systematic AI Improvement

Most AI teams go through the same story: fast early progress, and then suddenly things slow down. The AI isn’t broken, but new changes don’t seem to help, and it’s not even clear how to tell if things are getting better. I’ve faced this plateau myself—both in my own work and while helping other teams. In this talk, I’ll share what I’ve learned about getting unstuck: how to build genuine confidence in your AI, what “trust” really means in practice, and practical steps to move from “it kind of works” to “this is actually improving.” My goal is to give you real-world ideas you can use when you hit the same wall.

About the Speaker

Louis Dupont is an AI engineer with over eight years of experience developing AI solutions across multiple industries. Currently, he work directly with companies to build and deploy AI internally, and as a consultant specializing in helping teams overcome common roadblocks in AI development.

19:15 - OpenCV Essentials: From Basics to Small Projects, by Irina Nikulina, Senior ML/CV Engineer. Abstract: This presentation offers a practical introduction to OpenCV, one of the most widely used libraries for computer vision in Python. We'll explore essential tools and techniques useful for data scientists and engineers, and walk through two hands-on projects that demonstrate how OpenCV can be applied to real-world visual tasks.

19:45 - Survival Models: Proper Scoring Rule and Stochastic Optimization with Competing Risks, by Julie Alberge, phd Student in SODA team, at inria Paris Saclay. Abstract : When dealing with right-censored data, where some outcomes are missing due to a limited observation period, survival analysis focuses on predicting the time until an event of interest occurs. Multiple classes of outcomes lead to a classification variant: predicting the most likely event, an area known as competing risks.

Here, we present a new strictly proper separable scoring rule to handle competing risks. Then, we propose SurvivalBoost, a gradient boosting trees implemented with the previous loss that outperforms 12 state-of-the-art models across several metrics, both in competing risks and survival settings, and with faster computation times compared to existing methods.

20:15 - No Capes Needed: The Real Superpowers of Women in Tech, by Aurélie Giard-Jacquet, AI practionner and tech podcaster. Abstract: You want to know what a real superpower looks like? It’s not flying. Not invisibility. It’s knowing how to code. Because when you master machine learning, when you understand data science - you don’t just solve problems. You choose which problems are worth solving. You get to decide whether we train models to sell sneakers... or to detect cancer. You get to build tools that empower - not exploit. That’s not soft power. That’s real power. And the world needs more women to claim it.

20:45 - Cocktail & Networking The cocktail is sponsored by leboncoin.

Nous sommes ravis de vous inviter à une nouvelle édition du Meetup Search, Data & IA dans le cadre de la conférence Devoxx France 2025 !

Jeudi 17 avril à 19h00

Salle Paris 242AB – Palais des Congrès

Pour cette soirée, nous explorerons l'univers fascinant de la recherche vectorielle à travers deux talks passionnants mêlant musique, conquête spatiale, et intelligence artificielle :

3 types de recherches pour un setup musicalBertrand Nau

Abstract: La musique a toujours été la grande passion de ma vie. On a aujourd'hui beaucoup de services qui nous permettent d'avoir une expérience musicale agréable (services de streaming avec recommandations personnalisées, enceintes connectées que l'on peut contrôler à la voix...), et pourtant, j'ai voulu redévelopper certains services pour avoir une expérience personnalisée.Lors de cette session, je présenterai trois cas pratiques où j'ai utilisé la recherche vectorielle pour améliorer mon setup musical, en exploitant différentes approches de vectorisation. On parlera de RAG pour piloter des enceintes connectées à la voix, de génération de playlists personnalisées à partir de métadonnées, et de recommandation musicale fondée sur les préférences d’utilisateurs partageant des goûts similaires. La manipulation des vecteurs et la recherche par proximité seront implémentées avec Qdrant. Et surtout, on verra beaucoup de code.

Rediscovering Apollo 11: Using Java + Vector Search to explore the mission data!Raphael De Lio

Abstract: What happens when you combine the Apollo program’s historical data with modern AI tools? You get a way to interact with one of humanity’s greatest adventures like never before!In this session, I’ll show you how I used Redis OM Spring and Spring AI to explore Apollo mission data—aligning transcripts, telemetry, and images to uncover hidden connections and insights. We’ll dive into how Semantic Search powered by vector embeddings makes sense of unstructured text, how Redis as a vector database enables lightning-fast retrieval, and why these tools unlock new ways to explore complex datasets.Don’t know what embeddings or vector databases are? No worries—I’ll break it all down and show you how it works. Come for the Moon missions, stay for the AI magic, and leave ready to build your own intelligent search experiences!

19:15 - Online Convex Reinforcement Learning and Applications to Energy Management Problems, by Bianca Marin Moreno, PhD student in Applied Mathematics. Abstract: This presentation investigates online reinforcement learning algorithms for controlling large multi-agent systems in non-stationary environments with unknown dynamics. Our framework is motivated by a demand-side management problem of controlling a large number of thermal electrical appliances in real time so that their average consumption matches a target consumption profile to help balance energy supply and demand. Although motivated by the electricity sector, the proposed algorithms are general and applicable to many fields, such as logistics, economics and ecology.

19:45 - AI Revolution: How Artificial Intelligence is Reshaping Business, by Alina Krasnobrizha, Maître de Conférences Paris Nanterre and CTO in AI startups. Abstract : In this talk, I will share key insights from my book "La Révolution IA" on how AI is transforming businesses. Drawing from exclusive insights gathered in Silicon Valley, I will bring you passionate stories of its impact on 10 professions and 8 industries. Together, we will explore the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in this new AI-driven world.

20:15 - Welcome to the Broligarchy, by Mathilde Saliou, Tech journalist and writer Abstract : Led by Donald Trump and a few tech billionaires such as Elon Musk, the United States has fallen into a new era, and could sweep part of the Western world in its wake. In this keynote, we'll try and grasp how we ended up here, and what it means for women and diversity within and outside the tech industry.

53. Paris Women in Machine Learning & Data Science @Fondation EDF

Mark your calendar for the next session of the PyData Paris Meetup, on April 8th 2025. This Meetup will be hosted by Artefact, a global leader in data and AI consulting services, in their offices, 19 rue Richer 75009 Paris. The speakers for this session will be Martin Renou, Abdoulaye Sakho and Vincent Auriau.

Schedule 6:45pm - 7:00pm: Arrival 7:00pm - 7:15pm: Community announcements & short address by Emmanuel Malherbe, Director of Artefact Research Center 7:15pm - 8:00pm: Real-time collaborative editors in JupyterLab, Martin Renou 8:00 - 8:15pm: Handling imbalance data for client scoring, Abdoulaye Sakho 8:15 - 8:30pm: Choice modeling with the Python package choice-learn, Vincent Auriau 8:30pm - 10:00pm: Networking & drinks

Speakers Martin Renou Martin Renou is a Technical Director at QuantStack and a maintainer of Project Jupyter. Among other projects Martin is a core team member of the ipywidgets project and maintains many Jupyter widget packages such as ipyleaflet, ipydatagrid, ipygany, ipycanvas, and bqplot. He is a co-creator of the Voilà dashboarding system, and the xeus-python kernel.

Abdoulaye Sakho Abdoulaye Sakho is a graduate of ENSIIE and the M2 Random Modeling program at Université Paris Cité. He is currently doing a CIFRE thesis at LPSM (Sorbonne University) under the supervision of Erwan SCORNET and Emmanuel MALHERBE. He is a member of the Artefact Research Center.

Vincent Auriau Vincent is a PhD student at Artefact and CentraleSupélec, under the supervision of Vincent Mousseau. His work focuses on modeling customer preferences for assortment optimization. Previously he was a Data Scientist at L'Oréal R&I where he worked on different computer vision projects.

Abstracts Real-time collaborative editors in JupyterLab Jupyter has long been a powerful tool for interactive computing, but real-time collaboration has been a missing piece. In this talk, I’ll present our work on bringing true collaborative editing to JupyterLab, allowing multiple users to work on the same notebook simultaneously. The highlight of the talk will be a live demo showcasing JupyterGIS for collaborative GIS editing and JupyterCAD for real-time 3D CAD collaboration. I’ll also cover the technical foundations and challenges we faced in making these advanced editors work seamlessly in a collaborative environment.

Handling imbalance data for client scoring In data science, we talk about unbalanced data in a binary classification context when one class is under-represented compared with the other. Typically, it is the class of interest that is under-represented (cheaters, customers who bought a product on a site, sick patients...). In such a context, it is hard to train ML models. To tackle this challenge, various rebalancing strategies have been introduced in the literature. Throughout our presentation, we will focus on the oversampling strategies, which aim to generate synthetic data within the minority class to rebalance the data. SMOTE is the most common oversampling strategy, and many variants are based on it. We will also propose an alternative based on kernel estimation and generalized random forests. Finally, we will take a look at these techniques and observe their interest in a concrete use case from the banking industry.

Choice modeling with the Python package choice-learn Discrete choice models aim at predicting choices made by individuals from a set of options, called an assortment. Such models are used as inputs to operational problems such as assortment optimization, pricing or product recommendation. We present Choice-Learn, a Python package for choice modeling practitioners and researchers. The package enables processing choice data, and then formulating, estimating, and operationalizing choice models based on the TensorFlow library. We provide a unified implementation of classical choice models as well as neural network-based methods.

Inscription définitive à cet événement via le site OVHcloud : https://evdr.co/meet-up-data

👉 On démarre à 18h30. Discussion avec Stéphane Ligneul, Olivier Huber & Stéphane Heckel autour de trois principes clés : composabilité, portabilité et programmabilité d'une plateforme data. Exploration de l'architecture multi-engines intégrant des moteurs de traitement modulaires et des OTFs (open table format). Combinaison des infrastructures cloud, on-prem et hybrides pour une stratégie de données portable et souveraine. Automatisation des plateformes et maîtrise des coûts. Autant de questions que nous allons couvrir lors de ce premier échange.

👉 On enchaine vers 19h00 en faisant un zoom plus détaillé sur les projets Apache Iceberg et Trino avec Julien Thiaw Kine et Victor Coustenoble. Tour d'horizon, les acteurs, les promesses et pourquoi la combinaison Iceberg et Trino a du sens. La séparation du compute et du storage avec Iceberg change la façon dont on pense les architectures data. L'approche multi-engine permet de traiter tout type de workload en utilisant le moteur adéquat. Cas d'usage et retour d'expérience Iceberg & Trino..

👉 19h30. On termine avec Lex Avstreikh. Comment étendre les fonctionnalités d'une plateforme composable pour créer un Lakehouse AI, supporter des applications d'IA batch et temps réel en production, gérer les LLMs tout en assurant la gouvernance et la sécurité des données ? Au travers d'exemples concrets comme la conception d'un système de recommandation style TikTok, on débat d'une vision d'avenir et de la façon dont les plateformes data doivent évoluer pour répondre aux exigences croissantes de l'ère AI.
