« Rapid urbanization is increasing the demand for public transport in Switzerland’s major cities. The new m3 metro line in Lausanne is expected to run by 2030. Its construction will require a modification of the hydraulic section of the Flon river vault located under the Flon metro station.”

Valérie Zermatten

“Artificial intelligence, or “deep learning,” is increasingly being used in image analysis by automating certain tedious tasks without eliminating human work, but by making it easier.”
