OUR VISIONS OF RESEARCH

// Empowering society with Data and AI

Hi! PARIS white book 2022, untitled Empowering society with Data and AI, focuses on the research carried out by the 9 newly recruited professors, our Hi! PARIS chair holders, and the 5 fellowship holders supported by the Center.

An interdisciplinary community of outstanding scientists, who lead pioneering research on AI and data science to develop a strategic vision for economic and public decision makers in France and Europe.

Hi! PARIS unites top-tier researchers dedicated to the study and advancement of AI and Data Science,
encompassing diverse specializations and practical domains. Their scientific breakthroughs will allow new
solutions to thrive in all business sectors whilst creating significant impact on society.

Our interdisciplinary research agenda is driven by our dedication to exploring and creating structures that
facilitate the progress and implementation of AI technologies

// Chairs

Eleven professors renowned in their fields, were recruited and allocated funds to build their research teams. They also contribute to education programs and supervise doctoral students, in the following themes: Strategy, Finance, Marketing, Econometrics, Machine learning for computer vision and Reinforcement learning applied to energy.
