A copyright is a type of intellectual property that gives its owner the exclusive right to copy, distribute, adapt, display, and perform a creative work, usually for a limited time. The creative work may be in a literary, artistic, educational, or musical form. Copyright is intended to protect the original expression of an idea in the form of a creative work, but not the idea itself. A copyright is subject to limitations based on public interest considerations, such as the fair use doctrine in the United States. Some jurisdictions require "fixing" copyrighted works in a tangible form. It is often shared among multiple authors, each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work, and who are commonly referred to as rights holders. These rights frequently include reproduction, control over derivative works, distribution, public performance, and moral rights such as attribution. Copyrights can be granted by public law and are in that case considered "territorial rights". Thi

Publish your thesis while respecting copyright rules

Marjorie Platon, Manon Velasco

It is very common to reuse published (or unpublished) content in a thesis (e.g. in the case of the theses made of a compilation of published articles). It is therefore important to ensure that the use (or reuse) is possible and to ask for authorizations from the rights holders when necessary. This guide provides information on how to reuse other content while respecting the rules of copyright.

Copyright Literacy: pourquoi s'y former?

Mathilde Jeanne Panes, Manon Velasco

L'éducation au droit d'auteur a fait l'objet d'une formation Bibliosuisse. L'accès à l'information est de plus en plus facile, l'information de plus en plus foisonnante et protéiforme.ses créateurs de plus en plus nombreux. Le droit d'auteur est partout. Par conséquent, le maîtriser n'est plus une option. La demande augmente en milieu académique et les bibliothèques doivent s'emparer de ces questions pour accompagner leurs usagers. I'éducation au droit d'auteur a fait l'objet d'une formation Bibliosuisse en octobre dernier: retour sur quelques éléments.

An artificial life environment for autonomous virtual agents with multi-sensorial and multi-perceptive features

Toni Conde, Daniel Thalmann

Our approach is based on the multi-sensory integration of the standard theory of neuroscience, where signals of a single object coming from distinct sensory systems are combined. The acquisition steps of signals, filtering, selection and simplification intervening before proprioception, active and predictive perception are integrated into virtual sensors and a virtual environment. We will focus on two aspects: 1) the assignment problem: determining which sensory stimuli belong to the same virtual object and (2) the sensory recoding problem: recoding signals in a common format before combining them. We have developed three novel methodologies to map the information coming from the virtual sensors of vision, audition and touch as well as that of the virtual environment in the form of a 'cognitive map'.
