Deep Learning
Although the ability to retain, process, and project prior experience onto future situations is indispensable, the human mind also possesses the ability to override experience and adapt to changing circumstances. Cognitive scientist Stellan Ohlsson analyzes three types of deep, non-monotonic cognitive change: creative insight, adaptation of cognitive skills by learning from errors, and conversion from one belief to another, incompatible belief. For each topic, Ohlsson summarizes past research, re-formulates the relevant research questions, and proposes information-processing mechanisms that answer those questions. The three theories are based on the principles of redistribution of activation, specialization of practical knowledge, and re-subsumption of declarative information. Ohlsson develops the implications of those mechanisms by scaling their effects with respect to time, complexity, and social interaction. The book ends with a unified theory of non-monotonic cognitive change that captures the abstract properties that the three types of change share.
High-level Information Fusion Management and Systems Design
Scientists and engineers conducting research for military applicationsshare their findings on the semiautomation of the functionalities ofcognition, comprehension, and projection so that machines can replaceor enhance human awareness of a situation. A first volume surveysvarious options for practitioners, and this second volume identifiesoptions that have been chosen by the Technical Cooperation Programrepresentatives from different countries. It covers information fusionconcepts, distributed information fusion and management, human-systeminteraction, scenario-based design, and measures of effectiveness.

Solidarities with the Non/Human, or, Posthumanism in Literature
This volume collects essays written over the last decade by one of the founders and leading figures of the theoretical movement of critical posthumanism. The readings of literary texts gathered here, from Shakespeare, Keats, Camus, Vittorini, Kundera, Haushofer, Atwood, Eagleman, Crace and DeLillo, focus on ‘posthumanist moments’ in which questions of postanthropocentrism and the nonhuman become prominent, are negotiated and ultimately foreclosed. They show how a deconstructively-minded way of reading humanistically-motivated texts can help making these texts relevant for our so-called ‘posthuman times’. In doing so, these critical posthumanist readings demonstrate that literature remains one of the privileged cultural institutions and practices from which solidarities both with and between the human and nonhuman can be formed and negotiated.
Courtilières
Bâtie selon le rêve d’un architecte visionnaire sur un ancien paysage de friches, Les courtilières, cité idéale, multicolore et conviviale, a pour but d’adoucir le cadre de vie des mal-logés, déplacés ou émigrés, familles traumatisées, etc., dont fait partie Mélina. Seulement, l’ambiance est aux violences avec, en toile de fond, les horreurs des attentats et la guerre d’Algérie. Après plus de 50 années, l’héroïne, lourdement handicapée, se sent toujours menacée par un certain regard... À PROPOS DE L'AUTRICE Auteure de plusieurs romans, dont Un obscur chagrin, Les Ganguesses et Chef, Le chat de gouttière et Processionnaire, Sylvie Pascale Gaillaguet est psychosociologue dans une autre vie. Elle puise son inspiration des informations sur la nature humaine glanées grâce à son expérience professionnelle.
Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management
This book constitutes the extended and revised versions of a set of selected papers from the 13th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management, IC3K 2021, on October 25–27, 2021. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 crisis. The 9 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. The purpose of the IC3K is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners on the areas of Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management. IC3K is composed of three co-located conferences, each specialized in at least one of the aforementioned main knowledge areas.
