Optimal Transport for Machine Learning is in the spotlight of the Hi! PARIS Reading groups in October-December 2025, a scientific networking action gathering affiliates and corporate donors around important topics of the moment!

At this year’s Hi! PARIS Summer School, Anna Korba (ENSAE Paris) took a fresh look at Langevin diffusions, an old idea from physics that’s quietly becoming central to generative modeling. As machine learning and mathematics increasingly overlap, she invites us to pay closer attention to what’s happening under the hood of today’s most talked-about models.

AI is no longer a support tool in biology, it’s becoming a scientific partner.” At the Hi! PARIS Summer School 2025, Jean-Philippe Vert (Bioptimus) explored how AI is impacti biomedical research. From protein folding breakthroughs like AlphaFold to in silico simulations of disease, Vert made the case for a new era where biology’s complexity meets AI’s learning power. The next frontier? Models that understand life across molecules, cells, and entire organisms.

Ioannis Stefanou, new Hi! PARIS Chair-holder and Professor at ENSTA, is exploring how artificial intelligence can support the energy transition, starting with the Earth itself. https://youtu.be/vuz7vqlf-QY Can we harness the ground beneath our feet to power a more sustainable future? For Ioannis Stefanou, the answer is yes, and the key lies in combining deep engineering […]
