Two scientists from the C\u00f4te d’Azur have been awarded the prestigious CNRS Silver Medal of Talents 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jean-Paul Ampuero, Director of Research at IRD in Geoazur<\/a> (CNRS\/IRD\/OCA\/UCA), and Laure Blanc-Feraud, director of Research at CNRS in the Laboratory of Computer Science, Signals and Systems of Sophia Antipolis – I3S.<\/a> (CNRS\/UCA – Morpheme Team I3S\/INRIA\/UBV) were honored for their exceptional contribution and originality in their respective research fields, recognized at the national and international level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Jean-Paul Ampuero is an internationally renowned seismologist, whose work is considered revolutionary in his field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His creativity, rigor, and implications have been recognized with several national and international distinctions. He has revolutionized our understanding of seismic rupture through his innovative research, which provides a theoretical foundation on the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, he has developed an innovative method of imaging large earthquakes and made a significant contribution to solving the problem of seismicity induced by human activity. He highlighted the need to integrate dynamic rupture modeling and shed light on the mechanisms that halt earthquakes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His recent work on distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) in seismology has also established rigorous mathematical foundations for data processing and interpretation in this emerging field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laure Blanc-Feraud is a renowned scientist in the field of digital image processing, particularly in satellite and biological imaging.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

She has developed innovative variational methods to obtain precise images. She is the originator of the blind deconvolution algorithm used for satellite image deblurring, developed on behalf of CNES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, she contributed to the creation of a prototype of optical super-resolution microscope, which surpassed the diffraction limit, thanks to her innovative reconstruction algorithm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laure Blanc-Feraud continues her research by utilizing artificial intelligence to exploit data and further improve image resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
