SCIENCE 

We are redrawing the boundaries of human potential assessment.

By combining our expertise in Behavioural Science with the most advanced Artificial Intelligence technologies (NLP, LLM, Machine Learning, and more), we are helping to revolutionise the assessment of potential and to advance knowledge linked to the prediction of human behaviour.

The challenges our Science teams tackle every day.

What we’re trying to achieve.

 DECRYPT 

Understanding what influences human behaviour.

Our proprietary framework for understanding the psychological structure of individuals is based on models recognised by the international scientific community.

 DEVELOP 

Building robust solutions linked to the assessment of potential.

We create reliable and engaging solutions that enable ultra-precise quantification of an individual’s qualities.

See our validity studies

 PREDICT 

Creating relevant recommendation systems.

We design algorithms that enable recruiters and candidates to obtain targeted recommendations based on their specific profile.

See our ROI studies

 OPTIMISE 

Maximising - and enriching - the quality of our predictions.

All our algorithms are constantly monitored and enhanced to ensure that our recommendations are as relevant as possible.

Motivations.

Motivations enable us to identify the situations and environments that a person seeks out, as well as those that they tend to avoid.

Here are just a few examples of the technologies we have developed.

Behavioural Assessments.

We create and validate all our assessment modules using the latest generation of ML (Machine Learning) models. In particular, we use NLP (Natural Language Processing) technology and image analysis.

This approach enables us to guarantee a level of precision unmatched to date.

Combined with item response theory (IRT) for scoring, this approach enables us to offer our users an in-depth understanding of their personality, motivations and reasoning abilities.

Tech Stack :

  • ML (Machine Learning)
  • NLP (Natural Language Processing)
  • IRT (Item Response Theory)

Automated Predictive Models.

The combination of LLM technologies (Large Language Models) and Sentence Transformers (DistilBERT model) enables us to extract fundamental elements from standard job descriptions – such as skills – and translate them into relevant personality and motivation dimensions.

These dimensions can then be used to create predictive models to anticipate performance and commitment in the targeted positions.

We then apply a ‘multi-penalty’ optimisation process to ensure that these models are fair, avoiding any discrimination against specific groups.

Tech Stack :

  • LLM (Large Language Models)
  • MiniLM (Sentence Transformer)
  • Optuna Framework (Multi-penalty optimisation)

Contact based Models.

We have developed a proprietary technology that identifies the personality and motivation dimensions that determine performance, based on an analysis of the profiles of current employees.

Our model identifies the most predictive dimensions using logistic regression.

Advanced model tuning is carried out using PyTorch. To guarantee the fairness of the model generated and avoid bias, our multi-penalty optimisation is refined with the Optuna framework, guaranteeing models that are unbiased towards any specific group.

Tech Stack :

  • Logistic regression (Statistical Analysis)
  • PyTorch (Model Fine Tuning)
  • Optuna Framework (Multi-penalty optimisation)

Job Similarity Algorithms.

Using the extensive ESCO occupational directory and the advanced MiniLM phrase transformer, our ‘Job Similarity’ algorithm identifies associated job roles in the semantic space.

This technology guarantees a precise match in our Sourcing and Career Path functionalities, optimising recruiters’ searches and guiding candidates effectively.

The result is an innovative and effective solution that completely redefines job recommendation and career guidance.

Tech Stack :

  • ESCO Framework (Jobs Directory)
  • MiniLM (Sentence Transformer)
