Main evaluation criteria
- The use of DIADEM platforms must be systematized and widely explained.
- The use of artificial intelligence methodologies and tools must be described in detail.
- The integration of international partners and/or industrial partners is encouraged.
- The positioning of projects at the interface with other PEPRs is encouraged.
Construction of projects in two stages
- A first mandatory phase of pre-selection of consortia via the submission of a letter of intent. If necessary, the co-directors of PEPR DIADEM will facilitate the composition of the consortia. The scientific scope of the projects will also be validated at the end of this phase.
- The second phase will consist of submitting the projects pre-selected in the first phase to an AAP. The projects will be evaluated by an international jury, mandated by the ANR.
