Passez-les en revue.

Citation : Neural Network

The term "Neural Network" is a descriptive synonym for a data structure derived from simplified models of "real", that is organic, connected nerve fibres. Biologists as well as computer scientists have learned that "biological computers", like for example the human brain, have the ability to find and classify even insignificant patterns in large, unstructured data sets. A human is able to recognize the face of a person he/she knows in a large crowd of unknown people within a very short time, even though that person may be viewed under unfavorable conditions, say, with the face half-covered by a hat. The human perception is also able to recognize a single person's face even if the facial expression may vary significantly, thus making a simple comparison of images by straightforward numerical methods impossible.

The difference between a computer processor and a human brain can also be described in terms of systems architecture: the computer processor is a (albeit presumably very powerful) single processor that processes many different kinds of mathematical operations within a very short time, while our brain consists of many zillions of processors, each with a very limited set of operations and also very limited processing speed, but interwoven in a very complex manner yet not fully understood. This is why a single-processor-system can be a genius in numerical calculations, while a Neural Network (a set of interconnected processors) makes up for the shortcoming of not being numerically exact by having the ability to recognize patterns and generalize "rules" out of a set of examples.

During the last 20 years or so, computer scientists have developed a growing interest in such Neural Networks and various computers have been built to study and develop techniques and practical applications on this basis. Since developing computer hardware and specific Neural Processors is a very time and money-consuming topic, scientists soon came up with the idea of simulating Neural Networks completely in software using standard computer systems. The basic idea of employing the technique of Neural Networks in software is to use a (necessarily very powerful) computer processor to simulate a complex system of interconnected nerve cells (processors) and to study the behaviour of varying network structures to external stimuli.

There are a number of practical solutions, most of which can be found in today's computer science applications: image and speech recognition, optical character recognition, weather forecast, quality measurement as well as even computer games and many more. Artificial Neural Networks, although many million times less powerful than the human brain, can do an extraordinarily good job in identifying and recognizing consistent patterns in a seemingly chaotic set of data.

Citation : Resynthèse?

Citation : Appelée synthèse vectorielle, en fait cette technique est plus un système de contrôle du son qu'un type de synthèse mais les résultats sont intéressants.

Principe :

On utilise une manette (joystick) à quatre directions pour contrôler le volume de deux ou quatre sources sonores synchronisée et désaccordables (formes d'ondes, échantillons, opérateur FM, LFO). La manette est donc un contrôleur.
