Talks in the framework of this event


Adeline Nazarenko SkyLounge Fak.Math. Oskar Morgensternplatz 1, 1090 Fri, 9. Jan 26, 16:30
New paradigms of computing
After a brief presentation of the institute she heads, Nazarenko introduces the thematic focus of CNRS Informatics on "new computing paradigms". She gives a quick overview of both the challenges and the research currently underway in the laboratories and thematic networks affiliated with CNRS Informatics. These new computing paradigms are redefining the contours of contemporary computing. Between scientific challenges, technological challenges and applications in our societies, the presented focus highlights four approaches to computing that will permanently transform our relationship with digital technology: frugal, quantum, molecular and neuromorphic computing.

On mathematics and AI
In this talk, we address various issues concerning Machine Learning or AI. We first recall briefly the "history" of this field. Will follow an attempt to describe where we stand and some emerging trends. Next, we discuss the connections with various fields of mathematics and the reasons why one needs a better understanding of the topic and in particular a better mathematical understanding. Finally, we conclude with a short description of a potential mathematical approach.
