Chacun a pu s’emparer de cet agent conversationnel et prendre la mesure de sa puissance, mais son fonctionnement est resté pour beaucoup mystérieux. … 18 November 2024 Publication Emmanuelle Porcher Pollinisation : un équilibre en péril Si la biodiversité est souvent comprise comme la variété des formes de vie, elle se caractérise aussi par la diversité des interactions entre les êtres vivants : compétition, coopération, prédation… Produit d'une longue coévolution, ces interactions … 18 November 2024 Event Jean-Luc Fournet Introduction : School is everywhere... you just have to find it ! (1) Lecture Abstract The centrality of schools The centrality of the school explains why the State and the Church were particularly interested in it during the period we're looking at. The former paid increasing attention to teaching, and for this reason was the … 15 Feb 2023 11:00 to 12:00 Event Bruno Loureiro Statistical physics and neural networks Seminar Abstract Despite the rapid evolution in the development and deployment of machine learning methods in almost all areas of society, our theoretical understanding of the mechanisms behind this success remains rather limited. As discussed several times in … 15 Feb 2023 11:15 to 12:30 Event Stéphane Mallat Ergodicity and Markov chains Lecture Abstract The Shannon-MacMillan-Breiman theorem proves the asymptotic equipartition property in typical sets, as soon as the process is ergodic. The notion of ergodicity and Birkhoff's theorem are introduced, but not proved. The main argument of the proof … 15 Feb 2023 09:30 to 11:00 Event Nikita Kavokine Quantum plumbing: where fluid dynamics meet condensed matter physics Seminar Abstract Liquids are usually described within classical physics, whereas solids require the tools of quantum mechanics. I will show how in nanoscale systems this distinction no longer holds. At these scales, liquid flows may in fact exhibit quantum … 15 Feb 2023 15:30 to 17:00 Event Lydéric Bocquet Flow, from hydrodynamic slip to quantum friction Lecture At nanometric scales, surface effects obviously become predominant. Wall friction effects play a key role, impacting all transport processes - fluid, ionic, etc. They originate in molecular friction at the interface between the fluid, e.g. water, and the … 15 Feb 2023 14:00 to 15:30 Event Laurence Plazenet Handwriting pathologies in the classical age Seminar Abstract Seventeenth-century authors say almost nothing about their own writing practice or their conception of their work, even though it was during this period that the advent of the author took place. This is because writing is linked to the … 14 Feb 2023 18:00 to 19:00 Event William Marx " What will become of Europe's intellectual capital ?
