Vehicular automationVehicular automation involves the use of mechatronics, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent systems to assist the operator of a vehicle (car, aircraft, watercraft, or otherwise). These features and the vehicles employing them may be labeled as intelligent or smart. A vehicle using automation for difficult tasks, especially navigation, to ease but not entirely replace human input, may be referred to as semi-autonomous, whereas a vehicle relying solely on automation is called robotic or autonomous.
Machine virtuellethumb|Machine virtuelle des assistants personnels Palm. En informatique, une machine virtuelle (anglais virtual machine, abr. VM) est d'un appareil informatique créée par un logiciel d'émulation ou instanciée sur un hyperviseur. Le logiciel d'émulation simule la présence de ressources matérielles et logicielles telles que la mémoire, le processeur, le disque dur, voire le système d'exploitation et les pilotes, permettant d'exécuter des programmes dans les mêmes conditions que celles de la machine simulée.
Observational learningObservational learning is learning that occurs through observing the behavior of others. It is a form of social learning which takes various forms, based on various processes. In humans, this form of learning seems to not need reinforcement to occur, but instead, requires a social model such as a parent, sibling, friend, or teacher with surroundings. Particularly in childhood, a model is someone of authority or higher status in an environment.
Social simulationSocial simulation is a research field that applies computational methods to study issues in the social sciences. The issues explored include problems in computational law, psychology, organizational behavior, sociology, political science, economics, anthropology, geography, engineering, archaeology and linguistics . Social simulation aims to cross the gap between the descriptive approach used in the social sciences and the formal approach used in the natural sciences, by moving the focus on the processes/mechanisms/behaviors that build the social reality.
Hardware virtualizationHardware virtualization is the virtualization of computers as complete hardware platforms, certain logical abstractions of their componentry, or only the functionality required to run various operating systems. Virtualization hides the physical characteristics of a computing platform from the users, presenting instead an abstract computing platform. At its origins, the software that controlled virtualization was called a "control program", but the terms "hypervisor" or "virtual machine monitor" became preferred over time.
Système de classeursUn système de classeurs (Learning Classifier System ou LCS en anglais) est un système d'apprentissage automatique utilisant l'apprentissage par renforcement et les algorithmes génétiques. Ils ont été introduits par Holland en 1977 et développé par Goldberg en 1989 Un système de classeurs (aussi appelé classifiers) est composé d'une base de règles, appelée classeur, associés à un poids. Chaque règle est composée d'une partie condition et d'une partie action. Le classeur commence par être initialisé (aléatoirement ou non).
