Christophe Jouffrais, director of IPAL (IRL), concluded SinFra 2019 with a few words: “I am very satisfied and I thank, on behalf of IPAL, all the colleagues who presented their work on artificial intelligence at SinFra 2019. I also thank the many participants (90) who allowed the success of this edition. The symposium was rich scientifically with the presentation of many leading research on AI. It also allowed many meetings between French and Singaporean researchers, which should result in new collaborations and a new impetus for the IPAL laboratory in its project on AI, but also a good start for CNRS @ CREATE.”
