LEARNING: From natural principles to artificial
methods
Scope of the Conference
The conferences of AIDRI, the International Association
for the Development of Interdisciplinary Research, (1989: Modelisation,
1990: Networks and their applications, 1991: Artificial intelligence in
human sciences, 1992: Cognitive sciences, 1994: Neural networks, 1996:
Distributed intelligence and collective decisions) are inter-disciplinary
meeting opportunities. They offer to both theoreticians and practitioners
the possibility to compare their point of view with specialists of fields
like philosophy, epistemology, linguistics, psychology, sociology, economics,
neural sciences, biology, anthropology, mathematics, computer science,
etc. With such meetings, AIDRI aims at promoting the exchange of knowledge
between research domains. The exchange may consist in complementary insights
helping one another to understand a same phenomenon. It may also be of
methodological concern by focusing on the similarities and differences
between the techniques of analysis used in different domains.
Thus, this Conference on Learning, i.e. on the principles of knowledge
acquisition and adaptation to new information, is open to anyone interested
in that subject. It will provide in particular place for papers concerned
with
- the analysis of natural learning processes of living beings;
- the elaboration of learning helping tools;
- the development of artificial learning processes.
