-  ​ ​October 2 - **Toward Responsible and Safe AINozha BoujemaaDr Inriadirector ​of the DataIA institute (Data SciencesIntelligence & Society) ** (room Sophie Germain).+**Abstract**: With the development of artificial intelligenceit is now possible to design agents that are said autonomous in the sense that their behavior results from a chain of physical causalities from sensors acquisition of signals to action without any human contribution. There are many possible applications of such agentsfor instance in transportationwith autonomous cars, or in war, with autonomous weapons. Since human is not present in the loop, many fears the robots animated by such agents be predatory. In order to prevent unsafe behaviors, references to humane values have to be included in the agent programming. More technically,​ it means that engineers are now designing the equivalent ​of an "​ethical controller"​ to restrict ​the robot actions according to moral criteria. To do soit is necessary to encode different ethical systems, which gives birth to what is called “Computational Ethics”. At the light of the recent autonomous car accident that happened March 2018 in Arizona, we shall detail de different ethical dimensions that such a controller has to satisfy and the technical difficulties that artificial intelligence researchers who deal with computational ethics are facing.

-  ​October 16 - **From artificial intelligence ​to computational ethicsJean-Gabriel GanasciaSorbonne UniversityLip6Chairman ​of the COMETS (CNRS Ethical Committee)** (room Sophie Germain)+**Abstract**: In a near future, socially assistive robotics/​chatbots aims to address some critical gaps in care by automating supervisioncoachingmotivationand companionship aspects of interactions with the elderlychildren, disabled people. Talk during social interactions naturally involves the exchange ​of propositional content but also and perhaps more importantly ​the expression of interpersonal relationships,​ as well as displays of emotion, affect, interest, etc. It is thus necessary that a bigger ethical thought is combined with the scientific and technological development of robots, to ensure the harmony and acceptability of their relation with the human beings. The new AI and Robotics applications in domains such as healthcare or education must be introduced in ways that build trust and understanding,​ and respect human and civil rights. ​

-  ​November 13 - **Google'​s AI principlesLudovic PeranGoogle Paris** ​(room Sophie Germain)+**Abstract:** From walking sticks to bionic armspeople have always augmented their bodies with supplementary or replacement parts to improve their functioncomfort or aesthetics. ​ For optimal efficiency, ​ these must be personalized to precisely fit the body, and their design requires significant knowledge and skills on anatomy and mechanics. 
 +The Orthotics and Prosthetics ​(O&Pdomain has developed a large body of know-how to replicate body parts using plaster, design and sculpt shapes, and mold corresponding devices. This is applied to various body parts such as teeth, limbs, ears. 
 +Unfortunately,​ these techniques are empirical and operator-dependent. To improve precision, O&P increasingly uses digital imaging and design software. However, most of the current software essentially consist of digital sculpting toolboxes, therefore the design process remains virtually as empirical and operator-dependent as before. ​
  
-**Abstract**:​ The spread of powerful AI-based technologies in the recent years contributes to solve important problemshelps promote innovation and facilitates Google’s mission ​to organize ​the world’s informationBut these same technologies also raise important challenges when it comes to fairness, safety, privacy, or accountabilityGoogle is committed to address clearlythoughtfully, and affirmatively ​these challenges. This class will present in details Google’s core principles going through ​the different tensions between ​various ​principles. We will also detail our processes, tools and initiatives in the new and still exploratory field of responsible AI development.+In this talkwe present Anatoscope’s approach ​to tackle ​the challenge of precision in O&P. 
 +To really improve on Computer Assisted Design for O&P, we need to map the skills of good practitioners to numerical methods implemented in computersKnowledge can be  formulated using models and algorithmeswhile some skills are easily expressed as rules, and others are more easily described using examples. ​ Our artificial intelligence combines ​these paradigms ​through ​constrained optimizations solved using various ​strategies. We illustrate these using various examples of dental ​and orthopedic design.

-  * November 20 - **Unsupervised Learning on Homogeneous Manifolds, Lie groups and Structured Matrices based on Information Geometry and Souriau Lie Group Thermodynamics,​ Frederic Barbaresco, THALES** (room Sophie Germain) 
  
-**Abstract**: This talk deals with new applications based on extension of Machine Learning methods ​for data in Homogeneous ManifoldsLie groups and Structured Matrices based on Information GeometryStatistics on Metric space and Souriau Lie Group Thermodynamics that will be illustrated with Radar applications. Information Geometry has its origins in Maurice Fréchet’s works and his Clairaut equation. In this geometry, the metric is given by the Fisher matrix. Fisher'​s metric is a special case of Hessian metrics whose structures have been studied by the mathematician Jean-Louis Koszul. Jean-Marie Souriau extended Statistical Mechanics to dynamical systems by generalizing the notion of covariant Gibbs state related to the Hamiltonian actions of a Lie group on a Symplectic manifold. Extending Koszul model, we discovered that Souriau model made it possible to generalize Information Geometry for homogeneous manifolds by introducing a universal Souriau-Fisher metricinvariant under the action of the group acting on the manifold+  ​November 5 - **Social and Market Context ​for AI AdvancesHugo LoiGeneral Manager Pixminds** (room Sophie Germainintroduit par Damien Rohmer).

 In recent years, progress of robotics and artificial intelligence are prodigious. All the civil robotics (surgical robots, industrial robots, robots for elderly, services robots, …) and military robotics (war robots, war drones, …) renew the debates. However, the development of autonomous robotics will have an important impact in economics, social, legal and ethics terms. ​ In recent years, progress of robotics and artificial intelligence are prodigious.

However, the development of autonomous robotics will have an important impact in economics, social, legal and ethics terms. ​
  
 Autonomous robotics has drawn the attention of the European legislator, as it is shown by the European Resolution on European Civil Law Rules in Robotics of the 16 of February, 2017. However, this text, without any obligatory value, causes more difficulties than it solves. Indeed, it tends to deform the state‐of‐the‐art in robotics and to adopt a vision tinged with science fiction. Autonomous robotics has drawn the attention of the European legislator, as it is shown by the European Resolution on European Civil Law Rules in Robotics of the 16 of February, 2017.

 It’s impossible to skip these debates today, because the European Commission have to adopt an European Directive in 2019 on autonomous robotics, which will have an compulsory value in European Union. It’s therefore essential that all these difficulties should be understood right now because of their inevitable impact on society, and on human being himself. It’s impossible to skip these debates today, because the European Commission have to adopt an European Directive in 2019 on autonomous robotics, which will have an compulsory value in European Union.

-**Abstract**: Machine learning is more and more widespread for decision making in scenarios where the decision have high impact on individuals lifes or on society. Algorithmic fairness aims at assessing whether the algorithms exhibit biases towards specific social groupstypically groups defined by gender or etchnicity protected by anti-discrimination laws, and preventing such biases. In this talkI will review the main frameworks of algorithmic fairness and some existing approaches to learn unbiased decision functions. In particular, I will focus on the criterion called individual and its variants. I will present a number of approaches to learn unbiased classifiers in this setting, bunilding on a relationship between learning fair decision functions and domain adaptationa field of machine learning which studies cases where the training data is not exactly representative of the target distribution+  ​December 10 - **Google AI principlesLudovic PeranPublic Policy ​and Government Affairs Manager- AIGoogle** (room Sophie Germainintroduit par Erwan Scornet)

-**Abstract:​** The history of ethics and computing dates back at least to N Wiener’s God, Golem, Inc. From “Moral Machines”,​ “Machine Ethics”, to the current debates concerning various forms of “embedded ethics” and the impact of AI and data massification,​ it is perhaps pertinent to revisit the issue by examining the epistemological relations between computability and ethics in order to postulate a shared set of properties that support their claims to a form of “universality”.

 +**Abstract:​** “In the last years, deep learning applications have gained in popularity and drawn the attention of business leaders in all market segments. Deep neural networks performance in computer vision for object recognition,​ detection and segmentation,​ competing with human performance,​ has opened a new world of applications in a large variety of domains such as Retailing, Manufacturing,​ Security, Automotive, Energy and Healthcare. While deep learning is a hot topic in academic research, building real-world deep learning solutions suited to customer needs remains a difficult task which has to take into account the business specificities,​ the solution scalability,​ some ethics or legal concerns, and the potential risks related to algorithm mistakes. In this seminar, we will focus on solutions developed on top of object detection and multiple object tracking (MOT) to build computer vision systems that can be used to address various use cases developed at the Fujitsu Center of Excellence.”

 + 
 +**Abstract:​** AI Ethics has become a global topic in policy and academic circles. It is now recognised that AI technologies offer opportunities for fostering human dignity and promoting human flourishing but may be associated with risks also. Hence, the major impact AI will have on society is no longer in question. Current debates turn instead on how far this impact will be positive or negative. This seminar examines the new pertinent questions, which is no more the one of whether AI will have an impact, but by whom, how, where, and when this positive or negative impact will be felt. From a legal perspective,​ these questions address the way national jurisdictions (should) offer a frame for AI activities, in a global context. So far, AI Ethics seems to converge on a set of principles. But can principles alone guarantee ethical AI? The seminar mainly questions the advantages and limits of an ethical approach to AI, questionning the legal methodologies associated

 +  * March 10 - **Big data approaches to brain imaging & applications in psychiatry, Bertrand Thirion,​Head of Parietal team, head of Dataia, Inria ** (room Sophie Germain, introduit par Nicolas Donati &/or Magali Payan). 
 + 
 +**Abstract:​** Population imaging consists in studying the characteristics of populations as measured by brain imaging. The transition to big data in this field has consisted in imaging and behavioral acquisition from larger cohorts and in the agglomeration of such datasets. An important question is whether the loss of homogeneity inherent to working on composite datasets is detrimental to prediction accuracy. We provide evidence that this is not the case: larger datasets utlimately provide more power for individual prediction and diagnosis. We also outline technical aspects of the work on large imaging datasets and benefits of challenges and collaborative work.

-**Abstract:​** From walking sticks to bionic arms, people have always augmented their bodies with supplementary or replacement parts to improve their function, comfort or aesthetics. ​ For optimal efficiency, ​ these must be personalized to precisely fit the body, and their design requires significant knowledge and skills on anatomy and mechanics. 
-The Orthotics and Prosthetics (O&P) domain has developed a large body of know-how to replicate body parts using plaster, design and sculpt shapes, and mold corresponding devices. This is applied to various body parts such as teeth, limbs, ears. 
-Unfortunately,​ these techniques are empirical and operator-dependent. To improve precision, O&P increasingly uses digital imaging and design software. However, most of the current software essentially consist of digital sculpting toolboxes, therefore the design process remains virtually as empirical and operator-dependent as before. ​ 
  
-In this talk, we present Anatoscope’s approach to tackle the challenge of precision in O&P. 
-To really improve on Computer Assisted Design for O&P, we need to map the skills of good practitioners to numerical methods implemented in computers. Knowledge can be  formulated using models and algorithmes,​ while some skills are easily expressed as rules, and others are more easily described using examples. ​ Our artificial intelligence combines these paradigms through constrained optimizations solved using various strategies. We illustrate these using various examples of dental and orthopedic design.
