Company Presentation

Sentryo , a ~ 40 people startup specialized in industrial cybersecurity and based in Villeurbanne , is now part of Cisc o’s IOT business unit. It develops a software , “Cyber Vision” , already used by many customers , that enables industrial s to get a complete overview of the interactions occurring in their networks using deep packet inspection as well as ensure security and integrity of such systems. Within Sentryo , data science functionalities for Cyber Vision are developed by a small team which you will join for this internship. Amongst over subjects, this team currently works on time series prediction to provide additional anomaly detection capabilities to Cyber Vision. One of the main challenges of this team is the unicity of the installation of each client . Indeed, this prevents the possibility to train “in house” a single algorithm that would work for every client and requires to design automated processes to find suitable models.

Mission

Currently , we mainly use neural networks as models f or time series predictions because of their flexibility and performance. Nevertheless, these algorithms have lots of tweakable hyperparameters , in addition to their architectures that can also be seen as hyperparameters , that can influence their performance . This led us to being interested in AutoML (Neural Architecture Search, Hyperparameters Optimization, Auto Feature Engineering ... ) , a recent field of research that has been rapidly growing in the last years , which could help us find suitable models with less human supervision . During this internship, your mission will be to identify , then implement, state-of-the-art techniques to improve the process of finding relevant models , leveraging the capabilities offered by AutoML . Several papers on AutoML , which could be use d during this internship , can be found here :
