The adoption of digital techniques of representation in the 21st century has often been associated with a lack of theory in architecture. This paper attempts to trace changes in architectural thinking between two different periods, to address issues of theory in architecture and to find links between these changes and the singularities of digital techniques of representation.
In this paper we tackle a Fish-Catching task under a visual feedback hand-eye system with catching net. As the time of tracking and catching process continues, and releasing the caught immediately into the same pool, then the fish can somewhat get accustomed to the net motion pattern and gradually find out new strategies on how to escape from the pursuing net. For the sake of such innate ability being...
The tutorial starts with a presentation of the notion of complexity discussed within the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks, Chaos Theory, Self-Organization, Non-linear systems, Emergence and Collective Intelligence. Examples of complex systems include ant-hills, human economies, climate, nervous systems, cells and living things, human beings, as well as modern telecommunication infrastructures,...
Emergence is usually the way in which a collective organisation behaves differently than the sum of its elements. We propose here an overview of different ways this paradigm is used in several fields of artificial intelligence and we propose some theoretical tracks relying on some works in the field of machine learning
The growing emphasis on pervasive computing and MEMS requires the deployment the computation on very small devices for swarming system. The cooperation and interaction in such system inspired by biological system seem to be more and more complex and inconceivable because of highly dynamic, distributed and unpredicted features. The common stigmergy in biological decentralized system characterizes the...
The metasynthesis methodology, i.e. metasynthesis engineering for solving open complex problems was proposed in 1990, which was to combine the human’s mind and the computer’s capability. And a theoretical framework of the implement of metasynthetic engineering, i.e. the hall for workshop of metasynthetic engineering (HWME) was proposed in 1992.The central issue we address within our framework is to...
