Perceptrons: an introduction to computational geometry is a book written by Marvin Minsky and Seymour Papert and published in 1969. An edition with handwritten corrections and additions was released in the early 1970s. An expanded edition was further published in 1987, containing a chapter dedicated to counter the criticisms made of it in the 1980s.
The main subject of the book is the perceptron, a type of artificial neural network developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The book was dedicated to psychologist Frank Rosenblatt, who in 1957 had published the first model of a "Perceptron". Rosenblatt and Minsky knew each other since adolescence, having studied with a one-year difference at the Bronx High School of Science. They became at one point central figures of a debate inside the AI research community, and are known to have promoted loud discussions in conferences, yet remained friendly.
This book is the center of a long-standing controversy in the study of artificial intelligence. It is claimed that pessimistic predictions made by the authors were responsible for a change in the direction of research in AI, concentrating efforts on so-called "symbolic" systems, a line of research that petered out and contributed to the so-called AI winter of the 1980s, when AI's promise was not realized.
The crux of Perceptrons is a number of mathematical proofs which acknowledge some of the perceptrons' strengths while also showing major limitations. The most important one is related to the computation of some predicates, such as the XOR function, and also the important connectedness predicate. The problem of connectedness is illustrated at the awkwardly colored cover of the book, intended to show how humans themselves have difficulties in computing this predicate.
The perceptron is a neural net developed by psychologist Frank Rosenblatt in 1958 and is one of the most famous machines of its period. In 1960, Rosenblatt and colleagues were able to show that the perceptron could in finitely many training cycles learn any task that its parameters could embody.

Students understand basic concepts and methods of machine learning. They can describe them in mathematical terms and can apply them to data using a high-level programming language (julia/python/R).
Since 2010 approaches in deep learning have revolutionized fields as diverse as computer vision, machine learning, or artificial intelligence. This course gives a systematic introduction into influent

L'intelligence artificielle plonge ses racines dans l'Antiquité, mais c'est surtout dans la deuxième partie du qu'elle prit son essor, et qu'une lecture historique devient envisageable. Les premiers jalons historiques de l'intelligence artificielle (ou IA) datent de la Protohistoire, où mythes, légendes et rumeurs dotent des êtres artificiels, réalisés par des maîtres-artisans, d'une intelligence ou d'une conscience ; comme l'écrit , l'intelligence artificielle commence avec « le vieux souhait de jouer à Dieu ».
Le connexionnisme est une approche utilisée en sciences cognitives, neurosciences, psychologie et philosophie de l'esprit. Le connexionnisme modélise les phénomènes mentaux ou comportementaux comme des processus émergents de réseaux d'unités simples interconnectées. Le plus souvent les connexionnistes modélisent ces phénomènes à l'aide de réseaux de neurones. Il s'agit d'une théorie qui a émergé à la fin des années 1980 en tant qu'alternative au computationnalisme (Putnam, Fodor) alors dominant.
