Complexity and Emergence
Author: Academie Internationale De Philosophie DPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9789812381583
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Complexity has become a central topic in certain sectors of theoretical physics and chemistry (for example, in connection with nonlinearity and deterministic chaos). Also, mathematical measurements of complexity and formal characterizations of this notion have been proposed. The question of how complex systems can show properties that are different from those of their constituent parts has nurtured philosophical debates about emergence and reductionism, which are particularly important in the study of the relationship between physics, chemistry, biology and psychology. This book offers a good presentation of those topics through a truly interdisciplinary approach in which the philosophy of science and the specialized topics of certain sciences are put in a dialogue.
Dynamic Coordination in the Brain
Author: Christoph von der MalsburgPublisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262014718
Category : Anatomy
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
"Nervous systems do not live by the rate code alone. The ceaseless activities of groups of neurons are choregraphed into waves, oscillations, synchronized rhythms, and transient coalitions; it is these that underlie behavior, memory, and conscious perception. This exuberant manifesto masterfully summarizes and reflects upon the relevant evidence of these patterns from all manner of brains, small and large." --
Engineering Applications of Bio-Inspired Artificial Neural Networks

Pages : 942
Book Description
This book constitutes, together with its compagnion LNCS 1606, the refereed proceedings of the International Work-Conference on Artificial and Neural Networks, IWANN'99, held in Alicante, Spain in June 1999. The 91 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. This volume is devoted to applications of biologically inspired artificial neural networks in various engineering disciplines. The papers are organized in parts on artificial neural nets simulation and implementation, image processing, and engineering applications.
Neuronal Information Processing, From Biological Data To Modelling And Application
Author: P CombePublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 981449514X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Recent developments in the neurosciences have considerably modified our knowledge of both the operating modes of neurons and information processing in the cortex. Multi-unit recordings have enabled temporal correlations to be detected, within temporal windows of the order of 1ms. Oscillations corresponding to a quasi-periodic spike-giving, synchronized over several visual cortical areas, have been observed in anaesthesized cats and monkeys. Recent studies have also focused on the role played by the dendritic arborization.These developments have led to considerable interest in a coding scheme which relies on precise spatio-temporal patterns from both the theoretical and experimental points of view. This prompts us to look into new models for information processing which will proceed, for example, from a synchronous detection of correlated spike giving, and is particularly robust against noise. Such models could bring about original technical applications for information processing and control.Further developments in this field may be of major importance for our understanding of the basic mechanisms of perception and cognition. They could also lead to new concepts in applications directed towards artificial perception and pattern recognition. Up to now, artificial systems for pattern recognition are far from reaching the standards of human vision. Systems based on a temporal coding by spikes may now be expected to bring about major improvements in this field.This book covers the lectures delivered at a summer school on neuronal information processing. It includes information on all the above-mentioned developments, and also provides the reader with the state-of-the-art in every relevant field, including the neurosciences, physics, mathematics, and information and control theory.
Fiabilité, diagnostic et maintenance des systèmes
Author: LYONNET PatrickPublisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2743063858
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Permettre de concevoir, développer et utiliser des systèmes de diagnostic, de surveillance et de maintenance prédictive pour systèmes complexes (avions, centrales nucléaires, transport, etc.), afin d'optimiser les performances de la sûreté de fonctionnement : tel est l'objectif de cet ouvrage. Pour cela Fiabilité, diagnostic et maintenance prédictive des systèmes s'appuie sur la modélisation des systèmes (parties commandes et opératives), l'évaluation probabiliste et déterministe du fonctionnement, et la conception de systèmes de surveillance. Cet ouvrage fait le lien entre le diagnostic, la maintenance et la fiabilité des systèmes techniques, du plus simple au plus complexe. Son approche novatrice et sa présentation en font un véritable guide théorique et pratique pour les ingénieurs qui pourront y trouver la réponse à de nombreux problèmes de diagnostic, de surveillance et de maintenance, en particulier grâce à l'analyse vibratoire. Très didactique et accompagné de plus de 100 exercices et problèmes résolus reflétant des situations concrètes, il présente les concepts de base pour concevoir et développer correctement des outils ou des systèmes de diagnostic et de maintenance conditionnelle (prédictive) indispensables aux ingénieurs ou aux élèves ingénieurs en génie industriel, génie mécanique, robotique ou sûreté de fonctionnement dans les domaines les plus variés.

Brain Theory
Author: A. AertsenPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080528295
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
The present collection of papers focuses on the subject of vision. The papers bring together new insights and facts from various branches of experimental and theoretical neuroscience. The experimental facts presented in the volume stem from disparate fields, such as neuroanatomy, electrophysiology, optical imaging and psychophysics. The theoretical models in part are unsophisticated, yet still inspiring, while others skilfully apply advanced mathematical reasoning to results of experimental measurements. The book is the fifth in a series of volumes intending to define a theory of the brain by bringing together formal reasoning and experimental facts. The reader is thus being introduced to a new kind of brain science, where facts and theory are beginning to blend together.
