AI4-MED: Personalized Medicine in the Era of Artificial Intelligence

 

Took part recently at a round table on AI in medecine within the AI4-MED conference. Several subjects were touched including the concerns, the safeguards, the trust in complex situations. More detailed reproduction of the discussion will follow on another outlet.

 

Deep hedging at FAAI 2025

During the FAAI 2025 conference I presented a recent work with Pierre Brugière on . See here the paper (arxiv version)  and here the slides.

Executive summary: we introduce a deep-learning framework for hedging derivatives in markets with discrete trading and transaction costs, without assuming a specific stochastic model for the underlying asset. Unlike traditional approaches such as the Black–Scholes or Leland models, which rely on strong modeling assumptions and continuous-time approximations, the proposed method learns effective hedging strategies directly from data. A key contribution is its ability to perform well with very limited training data—using as few as 256 simulated price trajectories—while outperforming classical hedging schemes in numerical experiments under a geometric Brownian motion setting. This makes the approach both robust and practical for real-world applications where data and model certainty are limited.

Fake news sites: generative AI left unckecked

In a recent interview with Alexandre Boero from Clubic we discuss how recent technologies rendered possible a growing network of fake online media sites and journalists entirely generated by AI, designed to appear credible and manipulate audiences and advertisers, raising serious concerns about misinformation and the erosion of trust in digital content.

 

« Physics Informed Neural Networks for coupled radiation transport equations » at CM3P 2025 conference

This joint work with Laetitia LAGUZET has been presented at the 5th Computational Methods for Multi-scale, Multi-uncertainty and Multi-physics Problems Conference held in Porto, 1-4 July 2025.

Abstract Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) are a type of neural network designed to incorporate physical laws directly into their learning process. These networks can model and predict solutions for complex physical systems, even with limited or incomplete data, often using a mathematical formulation of a state equation supplemented with other information.
Introduced by Raissi et al. (2019), PINNs find applications in fields like physics, engineering, and fluid mechanics, particularly for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) and other dynamic systems. In this contribution we explore a modification of PINNs to multi-physics numerical simulation involving radiation transport equations; these equations describe the propagation of a Marshak-type wave in a temperature dependent opaque medium and is considered a good benchmark for difficult multi-regime computations.

Abstract : The transformer models have been extensively used with good results in a wide area of machine learning applications including Large Language Models and image generation. Here, we inquire on the applicability of this approach to financial time series. We first describe the dataset construction for two prototypical situations: a mean reverting synthetic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process on one hand and real S&P500 data on the other hand. Then, we present in detail the proposed Transformer architecture and finally we discuss some encouraging results. For the synthetic data we predict rather accuratly the next move, and for the S&P500 we get some interesting results related to quadratic variation and volatility prediction.
