Objectives
The Master 2 MVA (Mathematics, Vision, Learning), created by the mathematics department of the ENS Paris-Saclay, is a unique master in France since its creation in 1996. In cooperation with several academic partners, it trains a large number of university and "grandes ecoles" students each year in Research, Development and Innovation for public and private organizations and companies in the field of mathematics applied to data, image and signal processing.The huge growth in the use of digital data in all fields of science, technology and society requires the training of high-level mathematical researchers mastering the acquisition and processing of digital data on the one hand, and their automatic interpretation on the other. These two aspects are strictly complementary and are reflected in the three terms characterizing the MVA program.
