In the last report of its first working group, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded that there is still much unknown about regional climate change. Even over a number of very large regions, seventy years of warming does not seem enough to assess if three has been a change in hydrological extremes (floods and droughts). Given that the global climate...
Einstein Telescope (ET) will be the European Third-Generation (3G) Gravitational Wave (GW) Observatory, designed to observe the universe by covering the whole spectrum observable from Earth with interferometric GW detectors. ET will put Europe at the forefront of GW research, being the first and most advanced 3G GW observatory.
Europe will take the...
Our changing climate is already affecting millions of people across the world and will continue to do so in the coming decades. Successful adaptation strategies require the best available estimate of plausible future climate trajectories. Traditionally, this information has been mostly based on results from climate model projections that follow different future socio-economic...
The radical transformation of transport systems so they provide sustainable, clean, safe and integrated mobility is a major policy goal at nationaland European level. A major part of this effort aims to provide enhanced mobility experience to all users and improve the efficiency and safety of the transport network. Furthermore, the transport sector has a significant...
The prevalence of inflammatory upper airways diseases is estimated around 20% of the worldwide population. These pathologies damagethe life quality of approximate 1000 millions of people suffering that problem implies a huge economical cost.
Today existing treatments do not offer enough efficacy to successfully fight these diseases. It should be...
Hasta hace poco, el desarrollo de sistemas de TA se limitaba necesariamente a pares de idiomas para los que existían grandes corpus paralelos que podían utilizarse para entrenar modelos de traducción. En 2018, dos enfoques concurrentes [Artetxe, 2018] y [Lample,2018] demostraron que la TA no supervisada (utilizando solo corpus monolingües) era...
Cancer's complex nature requires integrating advanced research data across national boundaries to enable progress. Indeed, the Horizon Europe mission board for cancer has identified access to data, knowledge and digital services - accessible across the European Research Area through federated infrastructures - as a key enabling condition for...
New certified designs for aircraft structures are critical for the upcoming changes in the conception of aircraft architectures. Various breakthrough designs and new strategies for better use of material and integration of functions in aircraft are required. They range from regional electrical mobility solutions to increase aspect ratio wings that will bring higher structure...
The unstoppable proliferation of novel computing and sensing device technologies, and the ever-growing demand for data-intensive applications in the edge and cloud, are driving a paradigm shift in computing around the dynamic, intelligent and yet seamless interconnection of IoT, edge and cloud resources in one single computing system to form a continuum. Many research...
In the past decade, many scientific domains have been transformed into data-driven disciplines relying on the exchange and integration of internationally distributed data. Exploiting this data is still a laborious and largely manual task, prone to losses and errors, and increasingly specialised beyond most users technical capabilities. FAIR practices are encouraged but their...
