Research Domains

From algorithms
to deployed systems

Our research spans three core domains, each driven by real-world partnerships and deployed platforms.

01
AI & Computer Vision

Deep learning for medical imaging (brain tumors, MRI segmentation, mammography), infrastructure inspection, and remote sensing. From explainable AI to federated learning for privacy-preserving models.

Medical Imaging Deep Learning Federated Learning
02
IoT & Smart Farming

Cloud-based platforms integrating IoT sensors, satellite imagery, and weather data for precision agriculture. Our WalleSmart platform is deployed across Wallonia for dairy and crop management.

IoT Cloud Agriculture
03
Security & Distributed Systems

Cybersecurity for IoT and smart city infrastructures, secure federated learning with homomorphic encryption, and scalable data architectures for real-time processing.
