Research
Our innovations are built on a foundation of top-tier research spanning Operations Research and Machine Learning. By uniting advanced optimization methods with state-of-the-art predictive modeling, our work tackles some of the most complex challenges in industry today. This rigorous scientific approach not only drives our publications in leading journals and conferences but also ensures that our solutions are both theoretically robust and practically transformative. It is this deep connection to cutting-edge research that allows us to continuously push the boundaries of what’s possible in decision-making.
Selected Awards
This award is presented every three years by the French Operations Research and Decision Support Society (ROADEF) to a researcher under the age of 35. The prize aims to encourage original contributions in the field of operations research and decision support. Special consideration is given to work that combines the development of theoretical methods with practical applications.
Axel Parmentier wins the 2022 Robert Faure first prize
This highly competitive award evaluates submissions based on real-world impact, scientific quality, relevance to Operations Research, and methodological originality.
We participated jointly with Renault Group based on our joint project: "Renault Group Packaging Return Logistics in Europe"
Part of our team is finalist of the EURO Excellence in Practice Award 2024
This victory was achieved using our COAML (Combinatorial Optimization and Machine Learning) technology, which forms the foundation of our startup and demonstrated superior performance in solving real-world logistics optimization problems.
More than 80 teams from everywhere across the world competed, including big tech giants like Samsung and SAS.
Our team wins the EURO Meets NeurIPS 2022 challenge
The VeRoLog Doctoral Dissertation Prize (VeRoLog DDP) is issued by the EURO working group on Vehicle Routing and Logistics optimization (VeRoLog) and is awarded at each VeRoLog annual conference. The purpose of the prize is to distinguish an outstanding PhD thesis on Operational Research methods applied to the Vehicle Routing and Logistics Optimization in Europe.
