Virtual Worlds

A complementary volume to the First International Conference on Virtual Worlds held in July 1988. The selected contributions have been heavily reviewed in order to reflect the initial ideas of the author when the conference was launched.

Comprendre le deep learning

Après des résultats spectaculaires, dont la victoire d'AlphaGo sur le meilleur joueur mondial de Go, le Deep Learning suscite autant d'intérèts que d'interrogations. Inspiré au départ par une métaphore biologique, celle du cerveau, le domaine des réseaux de neurones est devenu l'un des principaux axes de recherche de l'intelligence artificielle. Quel que soit le secteur d'activité, pas un seul en effet ne semble échapper aux applications du Deep Learning. Quels sont les principes des réseaux de neurones ? Comment fonctionnent-ils ? Quand et pourquoi les utiliser ? Sont-ils simples à mettre en oeuvre ? Qu'est-ce qu'on entend réellement par Deep Learning ? Jean-Claude Heudin propo...

Complex Sciences

I was invited to join the Organizing Committee of the First International Conference on Complex Sciences: Theory and Applications (Complex 2009) as its ninth member. At that moment, eight distinguished colleagues, General Co-chairs Eugene Stanley and Gaoxi Xiao, Technical Co-chairs János Kertész and Bing-Hong Wang, Local Co-chairs Hengshan Wang and Hong-An Che, Publicity Team Shi Xiao and Yubo Wang, had spent hundreds of hours pushing the conference half way to its birth. Ever since then, I have been amazed to see hundreds of papers flooding in, reviewed and commented on by the TPC members. Finally, more than 200 contributions were - lected for the proceedings currently in your hands. They...

Immortalité Numérique: Intelligence Artificielle Et Transcendance

Les technologies numériques bousculent ce que nous avions cru établi, jusqu'à remettre en cause la nature humaine. Il en est ainsi de ce rève aussi ancien que l'humanité l'immortalité. L'homme, ce mortel, a en effet toujours envié cette longévité aux dieux. Et voici que la science et la technologie nous laissent entrevoir la possibilité de devenir immortel, si ce n'est au niveau de la chair, en tout cas au niveau de notre personnalité numérique. Certains prédisent que les avancées vont s'accélérer de manière exponentielle jusqu'à l'avènement d'une intelligence artificielle omnisciente. Dès lors, nous pourrions vivre comme de purs esprits débarrassés des contingences organiques. Allons-nous devenir des fantômes numériques errants dans les limbes d'Internet, des cyborgs immortels ou bien encore des clones accédant à leur passé multimédia ?

1 Introduction Imagine a virtual world with digital creatures that looks like real life, sounds like real life, and even feels like real life. Imagine a virtual world not only with nice three dimensional graphics and animations, but also with realistic physical laws and forces. This virtual world could be familiar, reproducing some parts of our reality, or unfa miliar, with strange “physical” laws and artificial life forms. As a researcher interested in the sciences of complexity, the idea of a conference about virtual worlds emerged from frustration. In the last few years, there has been an increasing interest in the design of artificial environments using image synthesis and virtual re...

How high-level behaviors arise from low-level rules, and how understanding this relationship can suggest novel solutions to complex real-world problems such as disease prevention, stock-market prediction, and data mining on the Internet. The term "artificial life" describes research into synthetic systems that possess some of the essential properties of life. This interdisciplinary field includes biologists, computer scientists, physicists, chemists, geneticists, and others. Artificial life may be viewed as an attempt to understand high-level behavior from low-level rules -- for example, how the simple interactions between ants and their environment lead to complex trail-following behavior. An understanding of such relationships in particular systems can suggest novel solutions to complex real-world problems such as disease prevention, stock-market prediction, and data mining on the Internet. Since their inception in 1987, the Artificial Life meetings have grown from small workshops to truly international conferences, reflecting the field's increasing appeal to researchers in all areas of science.

Dès que l'on parle des robots, la réaction la plus courante est celle d'une interrogation sur l'avenir avec une angoisse latente de voir un jour les machines supplanter l'homme et mème de le faire disparaitre. Jean-Claude Heudin examine les origines historiques et culturelles de ce sentiment et nous montre qu'il ne reflète pas la réalité de la robotique. Néanmoins, en s'appuyant sur une réflexion à propos des lois de la robotique proposées par l'écrivain de science-fiction Isaac Asimov, il met en évidence la nécessité d'une réflexion éthique, individuelle et collective, resituant l'homme au centre de la robotique et, plus généralement, des sciences et technologies.

Modeling And Simulation In Science - Proceedings Of The 6th International Workshop On Data Analysis In Astronomy «Livio Scarsi»

This proceedings volume contains results presented at the Sixth International Workshop on Data Analysis in Astronomy — “Modeling and Simulation in Science” held on April 15-22, 2007, at the Ettore Majorana Foundation and Center for Scientific Culture, Erice, Italy. Recent progress and new trends in the field of simulation and modeling in three branches of science — astrophysics, biology, and climatology — are described in papers presented by outstanding scientists. The impact of new technologies on the design of novel data analysis systems and the interrelation among different fields are foremost in scientists' minds in the modern era. This book therefore focuses primarily on data analysis methodologies and techniques.
