TOU04: Artificial intelligence, a new tool for estimating the dynamics of POPs (Persistent Organic Pollutants) in our oceans

The aim of our challenge is to highlight two issues. The emergence of new contaminants that persist in our oceans, and being able to predict their behavior with the means at our disposal.  POPs are problematic molecules because they are persistent, bioaccumulative, toxic and highly mobile. The difficulty lies in obtaining and updating information in real time.  The aim is to use an emerging tool - artificial intelligence - to anticipate the behavior of molecules that are harmful to living organisms, both human and marine. The technique involves calibrating a system aided by artificial intelligence, based on feedback, to estimate the dynamics of POPs in the marine environment.

Create database and model to predict the behavior of these pollutants and their impact with AI


- To respond to a major social or environmental problem
- Contributing to innovation in the maritime sector
- To explore an innovative idea using marine data
- To test the feasibility of a project or idea
