The Microsoft Research-Inria Joint Centre: inventing tomorrow’s world, today

Founded in 2005, the Microsoft Research-Inria Joint Centre brings
together the computer science expertise of Inria (the French National Research
Institute for Computer Science and Applied Mathematics), Microsoft Corporation,
and the Microsoft Research Laboratory Cambridge. The Center focuses on fundamental,
long-term research in computer science, with an emphasis on understanding and
applying formal methods, computer vision, machine learning, and privacy. This
video provides a glimpse into two research projects: 4D Cardiac Imaging and
Mathematical Components.

The 4D Cardiac Imaging project combines computer vision and
machine learning to view the heart in four dimensions, time being the fourth. This
pioneering advancement should help cardiologists make clinical decisions and
opens the door to robust retrieval of medical images.

The Mathematical Components project is designed to get mathematicians
from the chalkboard to the computer. The overall objective is to allow mathematicians
to prove their theories via the computer and to help them structure the math so
that other mathematicians can build upon it.
