It remains unclear, where and how the first living matter (i.e., life) begins. We have learned from the fossil
records the existence of dinosaurs and other mysterious creatures, but there are no records about the first
living matters that is believed to have emerged about 3.9 billion years ago. Under such circumstances, synthesizing molecules constituting the cell, molecular systems, and ultimately the entire cell only from defined
components and under defined conditions is one of the strategies to gain insight into the origin of life (Szostak,
Bartel and Luisi, Nature, 2001).
“Origin of life” can be classified into two different levels. The first is the origin of biological molecules, such as
the amino acids, nucleotides, and lipids from non-biological molecules. Early Earth is likely to have had only
simple chemicals such as methane, ammonia and hydrogen. How can the biological molecules emerge? Urey
and Miller performed a chemical synthesis in a possible primitive Earth condition, and found that amino acids
can be synthesized (Science, 1953). As such, synthesizing biological molecules and/or identifying conditions
that enable their synthesis will give insight into the origin of biological molecules. Dr. Danger will present the
topic related to the origin of biological molecules.
The second level is the origin of the molecular system. Molecules per se are necessary but not sufficient for
life. If we observe a mixture of components from disrupted Escherichia coli containing all the molecules originally present, no spontaneous regeneration of living cells takes place. Molecules must be coordinated in the
correct order to form a molecular system that exhibits properties of a living cell. However, it is often difficult to
artificially synthesize or construct such molecular systems. Accordingly, synthesizing molecular systems that
exhibit cell-like properties and identifying conditions to synthesize such system will give insight into the origin
of such molecular system. Dr. Toyota will present the topic related to the origin of molecular system exhibiting
a cell-like behavior.
One of the ultimate goals in the field of origin of life is to synthesize an artificial cell, one of the most complex
molecular systems. When this is achieved, it shows one possible route for the origin of cell, i.e., emergence of
livings from non-living materials. In this session, the significance and the impact of research on the artificial
cell assembly will also be discussed.

I - Closed boundary composed of amphiphilic molecules
At the prebiotic era of the Earth, the emergence of a closed boundary composed of organic molecules was
inevitable for the birth of the common ancestor of living cells. The living cells commonly have closed membranes made of lipid binding phosphate, i.e. phospholipid. Like detergents, phospholipids are categorized to
amphiphilic molecules (called as amphiphiles) which have both the water-soluble part (phosphate) and the
water-insoluble one (lipid). Moreover, phospholipids can form closed membrane in water with no assistance of
26
DNA or proteins. But, researchers think that the cell-originated phospholipid is too complicated to argue that it
consisted in the closed boundary at the prebiotic era. So far, Prof. Nakatani and Prof. Ourisson (Louis Pasteur
University) proposed a hypothetical pathway of chemical evolution of a phospholipid. Prof. Walde (ETH) reported that fatty acid which is simpler amphiphile than phospholipid forms closed membrane (vesicle) in water
at a certain concentration and pH. Prof. Deamer (UCSC) found that fatty acid extracts from a meteorite form
vesicles in water. Therefore, the closed boundary or membrane composed of simple amphiphiles has drawn
much attention as a powerful model of the container for the common ancestors of living cells.[1]
II - Design of molecular system realizing cell-like dynamics of closed boundary of amphiphiles.
How does the closed boundary of amphiphiles show cell-like dynamics linked to their metabolic reactions?
This question is significant and incentive for not only the issue on origins of living cells but also supramolecular
chemistry and soft matter physics. To approach this question, we have focused on designing ad hoc molecular
systems where the closed boundary of amphiphiles shows the cell-like dynamics. The amphiphiles consisting
in our molecular systems are designed based on the two aspects: the structure of the water-soluble part and
the chemical reaction of the water-insoluble part. According to Kunitake’s reports that artificial amphiphiles
containing ammonium ions as the water-soluble part forms closed membrane in water,[2] we adopted this
water-soluble part because several sorts of phospholipids contain ammonium ions. Maillard reaction is one
of the nonenzymatic chemical reactions which are expected to be involved in origin of life.[3] We thus installed the essence of Maillard reaction into the water-insoluble part of the amphiphile. Using such synthesized amphiphiles, we realized growth and self-division dynamics of vesicles and self-propelled motion of
amphiphile-oil complex droplets.[4,5] Addition of reactive amphiphiles to produce the component molecules
of vesicles, micrometer-sized vesicles containing an amphiphilic catalyst repeatedly grew and self-divided
under a microscope. In the case of amphiphile-oil complex droplets which have micrometer scale diameters,
they exhibited the self-propelled motion and chemotaxis behavior to the added amphiphiles.
III - Constructive approaches for issue on origin of living cells.
The constructive approach for origins of living cells is successfully progressing with the development of
the closed boundaries of amphiphiles and the analysis on their dynamics. The merit of this approach to the
origins of life is that all component molecules are well defined after synthesis and purification. For example,
Prof. Szostak’s group (Harvard University) and Yomo’s group (Osaka University) independently constructed the
evolutionary process of informational substances using vesicles or droplets. Sugawara’s group (University of
Tokyo) developed the vesicle proliferation system assisted by amplified DNA inside of the vesicles. Namely, the
researchers take more interest in the next stage of the constructive approach for emergence of genotype and
phenotype in origin of living cells. In the present talk, an idea bridging growth/self-division dynamics and selfpropelled motion is discussed for nonbiological acceleration of the evolutionary process based on the closed
boundary of amphiphiles.
IV - Conclusion
The present talk briefly reviews the history of researches on the closed boundary of amphiphiles and ad
hoc molecular systems exhibiting cell-like dynamics. These findings contribute to a model for origins of life.
Moreover, they provide a novel experimental subject for chemistry, namely, the robustness of molecular assembly in a non-equilibrium condition.

From interstellar medium chemistry to prebiotic chemistry: organic matter evolution toward Life?
Understanding the chemical evolution of the organic matter in astrophysical environments gives us clues on
the chemical composition of the organic matter that may have seeded primitive planets, and further on the
origin of biochemical systems on Earth. The organic matter present in dense molecular clouds in the form of
ice mantles at the surface of interstellar grains can evolve toward a complete planetary system. All along this
evolution, new and more complex molecules are formed thanks to various energetic processes including UV
irradiation and thermal effects. Small bodies of planetary systems (asteroids and comets) eventually serve as
a reservoir of this organic matter and as vectors for its delivery at the surface of telluric planets such as the
primitive Earth. Therefore, there is probably a link between the molecules contained in cometary or meteoritic
grains, and the molecules present in interstellar grains of the primitive dense molecular cloud. Furthermore,
at the surface of specific environment such as the primitive Earth environment, this organic matter could have
taken a part in the development of a prebiotic chemistry, a chemistry that precedes the emergence of biochemical systems. During this presentation, based on experimental approaches developed in our laboratory,
we will try to understand this chemical evolution and determine which chemical processes can take place in
these astrophysical environments [1-4]. This will allow us to obtain a better understanding of the origin and
the evolution of the matter that makes up the objects of our solar system. Finally, we develop an experimental
approach for studying prebiotic chemical processes in terrestrial planets such as on the Earth [5-8]. These
processes could then represent the first stage for the development of the chemistry of living organisms.

Graphene the "miracle material"
Chair: Erik DUJARDIN
CEMES CNRS UPR 8011, TOULOUSE, Fr.
I - Introduction
Graphene is a one atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms linked to each other in a honeycomb lattice. Graphite
that makes pencil tips can be seen as a multiple stack of graphene sheets. For more than 25 years, graphene
has been considered as a good candidate to create materials and devices with unique electronic properties.
Physicists and chemists had known it for decades but It has remained elusive until André Geim et KonstantinNovoselov (Univ. Manchester, GB) isolated it and produced graphene so easily that a large community of
physicists, material scientists and chemists did grab this new opportunity to actually explore, tailor and exploit
the properties of graphene. Nowadays, more than 7000 new papers hare published each year (almost one per
hour!). Thousands of scientists, dozens of companies around the world are scrutinizing Graphene's properties.
Never before has a newly mastered material pervaded so fast into new high technology applications.
II - Content of talk
The two speakers of this session will address two important aspects of graphene science: (1) how to make
it with a quality adapted to targeted scientific and technological objectives and (2) how to probe and master
the properties of graphene, in particular its electronics properties. As an introduction, I will raise the following
questions: What unique properties of graphene explain the exceptional interest this material has been attracting for a decade? What discoveries justify that so many research laboratories and companies are investing
time and effort on Graphene? Will graphene be up to the challenges and promises that society, researchers,
industrials and politicians associate to it? After some general contextual description of graphene, we will
focus on a presentation of a brief state of the art and a list of challenges regarding the production, characterization and exploitation of graphene.
III - Conclusions
After this abridged overview of graphene science in 2014, the two talks will give a more in depth view of
graphene synthesis and graphene physics.

I - Introduction
Carbon has some allotropes, for example, diamond and graphite. Diamond is loved as a costly and beautiful
jewel, and it is used as a heat conductor and a cutting material in an industrial application. Graphite is known
to be good at lithium intercalation and then is used as a negative electrode in a secondary ion battery. They
have been studied and used in various fields, but it was thought by some people that study on carbon-related
materials was comparatively out of date. However, this prejudice was suddenly broken in 1985 by a discovery

3. Which kind of future is expected?
33
By now, a wide variety of possible application has been proposed and investigated by using
graphene: (1) transparent electrode [4], (2) high-frequency device [5], (3) spintronics device [6], and
transparent electrode [4], (2) high-frequency device [5], (3) spintronics device [6], and so on. Here, I show
three important research issues using graphene.
As for (1), large area (ca. 30 inch) graphene was synthesized and applied for transparent electrodes for touch
panel application. Since the conventional transparent electrode (tin-doped indium oxide: ITO) includes a minor
metal, indium, it is requested that ITO is replaced to the other ubiquitous materials. Since graphene consists
only of carbon, this fulfills this request. High frequency devices are quite important for wireless broadband
networks, and IBM demonstrated 100-GHz operation of a graphene device. Spintronics using graphene is also
attracting tremendous attention, because pure spin current can be propagated in graphene [6,7]. Pure spin
current is a flow of spin angular momentum without a charge flow, and is an ideally energy-dissipationless
current, enabling ultra low energy consumption information propagation and calculation.
IV - Conclusion
As presented, graphene possesses bright future for both basic science and various applications, since
graphene can break a present limit of technologies. For more detail, for example, see ref. [8].

Glossary
Standard model：【標準模型】There are 4 interactions in nature: (1) electromagnetic
interaction, (2) strong interaction, (3) weak interaction, and (4) gravitational interaction.
The electromagnetic interaction is an interaction that an electron is affected by electric
and magnetic fields. The strong interaction is an interaction that, for example, a
neutron and a positron affect each other, i.e., that nucleons in nuclei are affected. The
weak interaction is an interaction that elementary particles such as quarks are affected
(an elementary particle cannot be divided into some parts and does not have a domain.
Electron, photon, quark and neutrino are elementary particles). The standard model
unifies these 3 interactions under one equation. The Higgs particle, of which prediction
and discovery was awarded for Nobel prize in Physics (2013), gives mass to particles
(precisely fermions) in this model scheme. Within this model scheme, neutrino is
massless, whereas experiments proved it is massive. Hence, an expansion of the
standard model is necessary, which is one of the next targets in elementary particle
physics. The unification of gravity has not been done, which is also an important target.
Neutrino：【ニュートリノ】Neutrino is one of elementary particles. It is chargeless,
and called as lepton. Wolfgang Pauli predicted it and Enrico Fermi named it. Within the
standard model scheme, it is theoretically massless. However, Masatoshi Koshiba
experimentally proved that it is massive.

general relativity, and one of the most important features in relativity is that time and
space are equivalent. Quantum physics that includes special relativity is called as

4-dimensional because of the equivalency of time and space.

【純スピン流】A flow of spin angular momentum without a charge

When we assume that one up-spin goes to the right and one down-spin goes to the left,
there is no net charge flow because one electron goes to the right and the other
electron goes to the left (1-1=0). Here, because of the time reversal symmetry, the
down-spin that goes to the left is equivalent to the up-spin that goes to the right. This
may be confusing. Let’s take a video of the above-mentioned motion of spins. When
the time flow is reversed, the direction of the motion is also reversed. But in addition
to the direction of motion, the direction of spin is also reversed (the detailed theory is
not described here). So, the total number of up spin that goes to the right is 2 (not 1).

Newton equations (of motion)：【ニュートンの運動方程式】Newton equations of
motion are equations that describe the behavior of a macroscopic physical system in
terms of its motion as a function of time. Motion of airplanes, balls, mechanical
machines and macroscopic physical systems can be predicted by using the Newton
equations of motions.
Schroedinger equation：【シュレーディンガー方程式】In quantum mechanics, the
Schrödinger equation is a partial differential equation that describes how the quantum
state of some physical system changes with time. The equation describes the behavior
of electrons and atoms (microscopic).
Dirac equation：
【ディラック方程式】The Dirac equation is a relativistic wave equation
formulated by British physicist Paul Dirac. It describes fields corresponding to
elementary spin-½ particles (such as the electron). The Dirac equation is consistent
with both the principles of quantum mechanics and the theory of special relativity, and
was the first theory to account fully for relativity in the context of quantum mechanics.

Speaker: Johann CORAUX
Neel Institute UPR 2940 Hybrid systems at low dimension
The Surface Science of Truly 2D Materials
In 2004, Physicists started the exploration of the intrinsic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, first
by studying graphene, an atomically-thin sheet of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice. Since then,
the interest has broadened towards other disciplines, including Chemistry and Biology, and the study of other
2D materials – boron nitride, dichalcogenides, silicene, silica – has started. These objects introduced new
paradigms, not only relying on their unique 2D-specific properties, but also deriving from their platform-like
topography. This true in both basic and applied research perspectives.
Just because they expose flat surfaces to the outside world, 2D materials seem ideally suited to surface
science studies. This approach, though, is not mainstream. I will show that, alongside the study of devices
based on 2D materials, surface science has provided invaluable insights into the understanding and control of
the preparation and properties of these materials, and offers great potential for manipulating their properties
and giving them new ones.
I will illustrate this viewpoint by (i) addressing the rich heritage of surface science studies of the preparation of
graphene on metals, (ii) evoking some very recent highlights in the preparation of other 2D systems on metals,
(iii) and giving a partial panorama of the toolkit which surface science offers for engineering the properties of
graphene and graphenebased hybrid systems.

I - Introduction
In the last decade, we experienced huge natural disasters due to earthquake, flood, volcanic explosion, landslide,
etc. The 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake caused a huge tsunami, and it killed more than 220 thousand
people living in the coastal area of Indian ocean. 2008 Wenchuan and 2010 Haiti earthquakes directly hit
inland areas, and caused a large amount of victims due to ground motions. The 2011 off the Pacific coast of
Tohoku earthquake hit the eastern part of mainland Japan, and caused a huge tsunami that killed more than
ten thousand people. Japanese government estimates 16.9 trillion JPY economic losses associated with the
earthquake disaster.
Disaster risk is evaluated from occurrence of hazard and vulnerability of human society. In order to reduce the
risk, government encourages the vulnerability improvement, such as structure retrofitting, evacuation training,
etc. From both science and engineering points of view, I introduce the recent disaster risk assessment, and
interesting research topics in this field.
II - Seismic design concept
In a classical seismic design, engineers just follow a design specification, which contains a detail procedure
to check seismic desistance of target structures. Recently, performance-based design has been applied to
the seismic design. The performance depends on importance of the target structure, and is defined by a set
1) how it damages and 2) how frequent the seismic load excites it, e.g., “safety” under “rare” seismic event,
“functional” under “frequent” event. Client provides the performance that is determined from cost, benefit, social situation, etc. Engineer designs the
target structure as satisfying the performance.
They owe different accountabilities, selection
of the performance for client and implementation of the performance for engineer. In the
performance-based design, the natural maximum seismic event is not essential. The logic,
cost and accountability for the selected performance have a priority.
III - Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA)
The cost consists of initial construction cost, maintenance cost, and also total loss due to earthquake disaster.
The loss is usually estimated from fragility of the structure and probabilistic seismic hazard. Seismic hazard
map is a typical output of PSHA as the intermediate products. PSHA is based on a probability of earthquake
occurrence, and a variation on seismic wave propagations. The latter variation comes from a probability model
of amplitude decays from seismic source, and a spatial difference on
ground amplification.
IV -Variation of Ground Amplification
Local geology controls the ground amplification qualitatively, and it causes
the spatial differences. In current PSHA, it is usually modeled by deterministic variables. We focus on the variation characteristics on the ground
amplification based on the innovative measurement. In the downtown,
where there is a large potential of earthquake disaster, the dense measurement of ground motion has not been performed. We developed an
advanced system for very dense seismic array observation, and installed
it in Furukawa district, Japan, which was the damaged area during the
2011 Tohoku earthquake (Goto et al., 2011). It captures more than 500
39
events, and reveals the spatial and also site-specific variations. For variation modeling, we should connect the
variation characteristics to spatial inhomogeneities of underground structure. I’ve developed physics-based
decomposition of the ground amplification, and it enables to model arbitrary response as a superposition of
simple states. We apply it to the variation modeling as a stochastic superposition.
V -Conclusion
In risk assessment, scientific knowledge has been put to practical use. On the other hand, scientific innovation,
such as variation modeling and convinced mechanism, for logical discussion between client and engineer is
still in progress.

Deep focus earthquake analogs recorded at high pressure and temperature in the laboratory
I - Introduction
The largest deep earthquake ever recorded happened on May 24th 2013. It was of a magnitude Mw=8.3 and
happened 620km deep below the earth surface, under the sea of Okhotsk (1). While the existence of deep earthquakes have been known since the 1920’s (2-3), the essential mechanical process responsible for them is still
poorly understood and remained one of the outstanding unsolved problems of geophysics and rock mechanics.
Indeed, deep focus earthquake occur in an environment fundamentally different from that of shallow (<100 km)
earthquakes (4), nowadays relatively well understood on the basis of theories relying on the properties of
fracture, coalescing cracks and friction (5-6). As pressure and temperature increase with depth however, intra
crystalline plasticity starts to dominate the deformation regime so that rocks yield by plastic flow rather than
by brittle fracturing (6).
Olivine phase transitions have provided an attractive alternative mechanism for deep focus earthquakes (7-9).
Indeed, the Earth mantle transition zone (410-700km) is the locus of the two successive polymorphic transitions (α->β and β->γ) of olivine, the most abundant upper mantle mineral. Such scenario, however, runs into
the conceptual barrier of initiating failure in a pressure (P) and temperature (T) regime where deviatoric stress
(Δσ) relaxation is expected to be achieved through plastic flow. Here, we performed laboratory deformation
experiments on Germanium olivine (Mg2GeO4) under differential stress at high pressure (P=2-5GPa) and within
a narrow temperature range (T=1000-1250K). We find that fractures nucleate at the onset of the olivine to
spinel transition. These fractures propagate dynamically (i.e. at a non-negligible fraction of the shear wave
velocity) so that intense acoustic emissions are generated. Similar to deep-focus earthquakes, these acoustic
emissions arise from pure shear sources, and obey the Gutenberg-Richter law without following Omori’s law.
Microstructural observations prove that dynamic weakening likely involves superplasticity of the nanocrystalline spinel reaction product at seismic strain rates.
III - Conclusions
Although in our experiments the absolute stress value remains high compared to stresses expected within
the cold core of subducted slabs (10), the observed stress drops are broadly consistent with those calculated
for deep earthquakes (4). Constant differential stress conditions at failure over a wide range of confinement
(2-5GPa) strongly suggest that transformational faulting is largely independent of normal stress and thus
involves non-frictional processes. We suggest that rupture nucleation is controlled by dislocation density and
spinel nucleation kinetics, while propagation is controlled by superplastic flow. High stress and high dislocation density conditions can be met in a cold subducting slab full of metastable olivine (11), due to stress
concentrations at the micro and mesoscopic scales because of buckling, folding, and/or inherited fractures
(12). This is particularly true in the Tonga-Kermadec region for instance, for which the largest catalog of deep
focus earthquake is available (4).

Bayesian Statistics
Chair: Seiya IMOTO
The Institute of Medical Science, The University of Tokyo
Thomas Bayes was born in London in 1702 and died in 1761 leaving a note with a part of a proof of Bayes's
theorem. In recent years, Bayes's theorem or Bayesian statistics has become a sound theoretical base for
data analyses, control, prediction and discovery in various research fields including social science, engineering, life science and so on. In this section, after illustrating the essential idea of Bayesian statistics, we show
some paradoxical examples, discuss the historical argument between the Bayesian and frequentist schools of
thought, subjectivist around priors, and end with a few cutting edge real examples.
Bayesian statistics can be considered as a mathematical framework for updating existing knowledge of subject or parameter of interest by getting observational data. In Bayesian statistics, the knowledge of the parameter is supposed to be represented by a probability function called prior probability; for example we know
the mean height of men is around 170cm but it varies depending on populations. The prior probability function
of the parameter will be updated using the information of observed data by Bayes theorem; it achieves posterior probability of the parameter (updated knowledge by the data). In other words, the framework of Bayesian statistics allows us to integrate additional information (prior probability) with the information of the data
represented by the likelihood function.
Getting the posterior probability function of the parameter of interest is a crucial task in data analysis from a
Bayesian point of view. It contains high dimensional integral in continuous case or combinatorial summation
in discrete case, and mainly two approaches have been proposed; exact and approximate computations. The
former approach restricts data analysts to use limited types of prior probability functions but can later be
relaxed. However, the computational cost of the former is much lighter than that of the later.
Toshio Ohnishi will present the first approach in the Bayesian model averaging that combines a lot of Bayesian
statistical models and the problem of minimizing Bayes risk that measures the badness of statistical models.
Michael Blum will present a problem in population genetics with the second approach. Finally we will discuss
the applicability of Bayesian methods to big data like the genomic data used in Blum’s talk, and compare them
with data-only-methods.

I - Introduction
Maximization of the likelihood and that of the Shannon entropy are two of the most famous principles in statistics. The former derives the well-known maximum likelihood estimator. The latter is applied to find the most
"random" statistical model in the wake of the second law of thermodynamics. This paper reveals a notable
relationship between the two principles, which is a generalization of the result in Ohnishi & Yanagimoto (2013).
A Bayesian model assumes not only a sampling density function with an unknown parameter but also a prior
density function for the unknown parameter, while frequentists' model assumes the former only. The sampling
density function is a statistical model for mechanism behind a data. The unknown parameter to be estimated
is also regarded as a random variable in a Bayesian model.
46
Prediction, or density estimation, is a generalization of parameter estimation. The true density function is estimated based on a data. The estimated density function is called a predictor.
A loss function is adopted to compare more than one predictor. It is a kind of "price" we have to pay when a
predictor is different from the true density function. The performance of a predictor is assessed by the expected value of the loss function, which is called the Bayes risk in the case of a Bayesian model. Finding the best
predictor is formulated as an optimization problem, i.e., minimization of the Bayes risk.
The Kullback-Leibler divergence, denoted by KL(q,p) is one of the fundamental quantities in statistics. Roughly
speaking, it is the distance between the two density functions q and p. Unlike the Euclidean distance, it is
asymmetrical, i.e., KL(q,p) ≠ KL(p,q). Nevertheless, they appear as a pair in theoretical statistics, and are said
to be dual to each other (Amari & Nagaoka, 2000).
We adopt dual Kullback-Leibler divergences KL(q,p) and KL(p,q) as loss functions, where q is a predictor and
p is the true density function. They are called the e-and the m-divergence loss functions, respectively. This
duality turns out to link the likelihood maximization and the Shannon entropy maximization.
This paper investigates Bayesian model averaging, which is to average a number of Bayesian models according to our belief. We index those Bayesian models by introducing a parameterξ. The belief is represented by
a density function h (ξ). Bayesian model averaging can cover such situations that we often encounter in actual
data analyses.
We investigate the Bayesian model averaging in the framework of prediction problem. Two optimization problems
are formulated. One is under the e-divergence loss function, and the other is under the m-divergence loss function. Each of them consists of (1) the best predictor in the ξ th Bayesian model and (2) a weight function h (ξ).
II - Results in the -divergence loss case
A "geometric mean" of the best predictors with weight h (ξ) plays an important role in this section, which we
call the -mixture.
Theorem 1. The following statements hold under the -divergence.
(i) The -mixture is the solution to the Bayes risk minimization problem.
(ii) The Bayes risk minimization is equivalent to maximization of the Shannon entropy under a constraint.
Maximization of the likelihood with respect to a weight function h (ξ) leads to the worst prediction.
(iii) Maximization of the minimum Bayes risk with respect to a weight function h (ξ) leads to a constant-risk
prediction.
The essence of the proof of Theorem 1(ii) is a "reverse" procedure of the Lagrange multiplier method. Note
that the Lagrange multiplier method rewrites an optimization problem with a constraint into an equivalent
optimization problem free of constraints.
III - Results in the -divergence loss case
The roles of the likelihood maximization and the Shannon entropy maximization are reversed in the case of
the m divergence loss function. An "arithmetic mean" of the best predictors with weight h (ξ) plays an key
role, which we call the m-mixture.
Theorem 2. The following statements hold under the -divergence.
(i) The m-mixture is the solution to the Bayes risk minimization problem.
(ii) The Bayes risk minimization is equivalent to maximization of the likelihood under a constraint. Maximization of the Shannon entropy with respect to a weight function h(ξ) leads to the worst prediction.
(iii) Maximization of the minimum Bayes risk with respect to a weight function h(ξ) leads to a constant-risk
prediction.
IV - Conclusion
• Maximization of the likelihood and that of the Shannon entropy are dual to each other in the sense of the
duality between the e-and the m-divergences.
• In each case maximization of the minimum risk leads to a constant-risk prediction.

Bayesian Principal Component Analysis for detecting genes involved in Darwinian selection
Using large numbers of genomic markers, genome scans can reveal a proportion of loci that deviate from neutral expectations because they contribute to Darwinian selection. This prominent biological process results in
greater fitness of individuals in their local habitats due to natural selection. Understanding the genomic architecture of adaptation in humans is crucial to understand how past selection impacted disease susceptibility
in modern populations. Here, we introduce an original method that seeks for outlier genomic regions using
Bayesian principal component analysis. Bayesian approaches for genome scans have the desirable feature
that they can control for the false discovery rate. Compared to more traditional approaches that are based on
indices of genetic differentiation between populations, Bayesian PCA is fully unsupervised and do not require
populations to be defined in advance. Using simulated data as well as a dataset of worldwide human genetic
variation, we show the potential of Bayesian PCA for performing genome scans.

Supersolidity and quantum plasticity
Chair: Christophe JOSSERAND
UMR 7190 - Institut Jean d'Alembert
I - Introduction
Superfluids and Bose-Einstein condensates exhibit quantum behavior at macroscopic scale. One of their
striking properties is that their viscosity vanishes under certain conditions and thus that it can flow without
dissipation. Since the half if the 20th centuries, the possibility of such property for solids has been questioned.
Since 2004, this quest for supersolidity has been revived by experimental results on torsional oscillators,
results that have been shown to be misleading recently, since elastic effects explain the experimental signal.
Tracking supersolidity has also led to focus on the specific properties of solid at very low temperature: the
so-called quantum plasticity. The goal of this session is to present this supersolid story.
I will introduce and discuss the superfluidity and some striking experiments. Then I will present the specific
challenge of supersolidity. Two different specific session will then discuss recent results on the field.
III - Conclusions
Even if the supersolidity claimed in 2004 appears to be due to other effects, supersolids are now investigated
in many other physical systems.

I - Introduction
In the last decade, after the discovery of putative supersolid behaviors in 4He in torsional oscillator (TO) experiments by Kim and Chan [1], lots of efforts have been devoted to uncover their origin. Anomalies of solid 4He
have been found in TO responses, which indicate reduction of rotational inertia, (Nonclassical Rotational Inertia,
NCRI), heat capacity [2], and elastic property with an increase of shear modulus [3]. TO and heat capacity results
strongly support the emergence of macroscopic coherent state similar to superfluid, while the shear modulus is
controversial. The increase in shear modulus is explained well by pinning of dislocations by 3He atoms contained
in solid 4He samples as an impurity[3,4]. Kim and Chan have recently claimed that the NCRI of solid 4He formed in
nanopores of a porous Vycor glass is absent [4]. This reinforces the scenario that the stiffening of solid 4He is the
major cause of NCRI seen in many TO studies, because there seems no dislocation networks in solid formed in
nanopores[4]. In order to elucidate the nature of NCRI, we perform TO measurements for solid 4He, with rotating
52
the whole setup (“DC” rotation). If solid 4He possesses a macroscopic quantum nature, DC rotation can generate
superflow and its quantization, i.e. quantized vortices.
II - Continuous (i.e. DC) Rotating Experiment
When a bucket containing superfluid rotates faster than some critical DC angular velocity, irrotational property
of the superfluid is broken, and the whole superfluid starts to rotate with the bucket because of the formation
of quantized vortex array. The number of vortices increases in proportion to the angular velocity. The existence
of quantized vortex is in general a definite evidence of macroscopic quantum state[6]. Superimposing DC
rotation onto apparatus measuring NCRI or shear modulus may reveal the quantum nature of solid 4He.
We simultaneously measured the resonant frequency of TO and shear modulus of bulk solid helium under DC
rotation with angular velocities between 0 and 4 rad/s. The DC rotation substantially decreases NCRI in annular
solid samples, while no DC rotation effect was seen in shear modulus [7]. This result strongly supports that
any connection between NCRI and shear modulus is indirect. The change in NCRI under DC rotation is possibly
attributed to an appearance of quantized circulation.
III - Evidence of Quantization : Quantum oscillation
We currently study the effect of DC rotation on NCRI of composite of solid
4
He confined in a porous Vycor glass (pore size: 6 nm) and bulk solid 4He.
Depletion of NCRI is observed at much smaller rotation speed than bulk
solid 4He does. The dependence of NCRI on angular velocity Ω has a very
intriguing oscillating structure, in which the oscillation becomes periodic
when NCRI is plotted as a function of Ω−1 (Fig. 1).
This behavior reminds us ”quantum oscillation” phenomena observed in
electrons in metals and semiconductors under magnetic field, such as de
Haas van Alphen effect. The NCRI maxima and minima are periodically located very well. Here, each NCRI maximum or minimum could correspond
to integer quantum number. In order to see the quantization, we number the
NCRI minima 2 to 9. This number is referred to as Quantum Number N. We
plot the locations of minima, ΩMin-1 against N are shown in Fig. 2. The ΩMin-1
is obviously proportional 0 to N. This result is the first clear observation of
quantization phenomenon in solid 4He under DC rotation.
IV - Conclusion
We have found that the TO response (NCRI) of solid 4He is sensitive to
DC rotation, while the shear modulus is not. In composite solid samples
containing porous Vycor we observed for the first time a signature of
quantization phenomenon. This quantization appears as the quantum
oscillation of Ω−1, which is reminiscent of the quantum oscillation in charged fermion systems. Although this oscillation needs further study, it gives a new aspect to physics of solid
matter.

the motion of dislocation and therefore atoms around the dislocation are rearranged.
The density of the dislocation mostly determines the stiffness of the metal.

I - Introduction
Superfluidity has a very special status within the states of matter: it is indeed a direct manifestation, at a
macroscopic scale, of quantum physics. Usual fluid properties, like “how does it flow”, are deeply modified.
Underlying this global behaviour , the quantum basis is to be found in the microscopic behaviour of its constituents, e.g. atoms: it is when they all behave like a single wave and become indistinguishable that superfluidity arises.
Beyond arising in liquids, like 4He, or gases, superfluidity can also occur in a solid. This is a priori more puzzling: atoms would then be at the same time arranged spatially with a definite pattern, and delocalized over all
the pattern sites. Theoretically predicted in the 70s, quest for experimental observation of this state has been
looked for mainly in solid 4He.
In parallel to “natural” many-body quantum systems such as 4He at low temperature or superconductors, atomic trapping and cooling techniques allow nowadays to engineer artificial many-body systems. Bose-Einstein
condensation, achieved for the first time in 1995, arises when a very dilute atomic gas is cooled down to a
temperature typically lower than 10-6
K: atoms then all condense in the same wavefunction. As seen above, this forms a superfluid, as has been
experimentally shown in particular by observation of vortices [1].
This system has several advantages. Excellent control over the system, combined with a large extension of the
wavefunction, allows direct optical access to it. In addition, parameters become tunable: density, as well as
interaction type and strengths, can be freely engineered. It becomes now possible to “simulate” various many
body problems and phase diagrams. Recently, implementations of supersolidity have been investigated theoretically and experimentally (see e.g. [2] for a recent review), allowing an approach in a sense complementary
to 4He experiments: it opens a window on the microscopic properties of the system and could help clearing
out which of them are crucial for a supersolid to exist.
The experiment I will present is realized with a 87Rb Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC). This atomic species has
normally weak interatomic interactions, but effective long-range interactions -needed to for supersolid ground

Psychiatric disorders: definitions and treatments
Chair: Véronique DEROCHE-GAMONET
Physiopathology of addiction, Inserm U862, Bordeaux, France
The session deals with two major issues of psychiatry, i.e. definitions of disorders and treatment, the former
impacting the latter, obviously.
Nosography is perpetually revised underlying the difficulty of producing absolute definitions of psychiatric disorders; one of the reasons being that diagnosis criteria are largely subjective.
Dr Takahashi and Mallet present neuroscience tools and methods, which when combined, allow obtaining objective psychobiological signatures of psychiatric disorders. Those signatures guide the choice of reliable targets
and strategies for treatment. Dr Mallet exemplifies how a deeper knowledge of the neurobiology of Obsessive
Compulsive Disorders leads to a rationale therapeutic application of Deep brain stimulation (DBS).
Dr Takahashi also introduces the concept of dimensional transnosographic approach of psychiatric disorders,
echoing the recent Research Domain Criteria project (RDoC) of the NIMH. Distinct psychiatric disorders share
common alterations in some key psychological dimensions, e.g. decision-making. Dr Takahashi shows how studying the neurobiology of impaired decision-making across neuropsychiatric disorders can improve our understanding of this pathological trait and its contribution to the concerned disorders, further specifying their definition.
Finally, using the example of drug addiction, my own contribution will be to discuss why proper definitions of
psychiatric disorders also condition the development of valid preclinical models and hence the identification
of pertinent therapeutic targets, for a reliable translation to humans.
In summary, properly defining psychiatric disorders is neither obvious nor trivial, but instead an important and
timely issue. Cutting-edge neuroscience tools and methods are now available, which create the conditions for
a renewal of biological psychiatry.

II - Glossary of the session
• Addiction: Addiction is the continued repetition of a behavior despite adverse consequences, or a psychiatric
disorder leading to such behaviors. Addictions can include drugs of abuse, food, sex, internet and gambling.
• ADHD: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a psychiatric disorder. Typical symptoms of ADHD
are difficulty in sustaining attention, hyperactivity and impulsive behavior.
• Behavioral economics: The field of economics that studies the effects of social, cognitive, and emotional
factors on the economic decisions of individuals.
• Biological psychiatry: It is a school of psychiatric thought aims to understand mental disorders in terms of
the biological function of the nervous system. Its detractors blame it for emphasizing the relationship between
behavior and brain function, for searching exclusively for physical causes to mental illnesses and for focusing
the treatment of mental disorders on medication.
• Functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI): A noninvasive method for imaging brain activity that uses
imaging pulse sequences generated by an MRI scanner. The signal measured is caused by hemoglobin-based
changes.
• Neuroeconomics: Neuroeconomics is an interdisciplinary field that combines research methods from neuroscience, experimental and behavioral economics, and cognitive and social psychology to explain human
decision making.
• Neurotransmitter: Communication between neurons is achieved through release of small molecules called
neurotransmitters from the pre-synaptic neuron. This chemical signal diffuses across a synaptic cleft to interact with specific receptors on the post-synaptic neuron in order to elicit a biochemical response.
• Neurotransmitter receptors: A receptor is a molecule usually found on the surface of a neuron that receives
chemical signals from pre-synaptic neurons.
• Neurotransmitter transporters: A transporter located on the pre-synaptic neuron terminal reuptakes released neurotransmitter and terminates synaptic transmission.
• NIMH: “National Institute of Mental Health is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a component of
the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The NIMH Intramural division plans and conducts basic,
clinical, and translational research to advance understanding of the diagnosis, causes, treatment, and prevention of mental disorders through the study of brain function and behavior.” (http://www.nimh.nih.gov/index.
shtml).
• Nosography: Nosography is the systematic description of diseases. DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual
of Mental Disorders – American Psychiatric Association) and ICD (International Classification of Diseases –
World Health Organization) are the two main classifications describing psychiatric disorders based on series
of symptoms. “For each disorder, a set of diagnostic criteria indicate what symptoms must be present (and for
how long), as well as symptoms, disorders, and conditions that must not be present to qualify for a particular
diagnosis” (DSM, http://www.psych.org/practice/dsm).
• Positron emission tomography (PET): PET involves the use of an imaging device (PET scanner) and a radiotracer that is injected into the patient’s bloodstream. Once the radiotracer accumulates in the body’s tissues
and organs, its natural decay includes emission of positrons that react with electrons in the body. This reaction
produces energy in the form of a pair of photons. The PET scanner, which is able to detect these photons, creates
three-dimensional images that show how the radiotracer is distributed in the area of the body being studied.
• Research Domain Criteria (RDoC): “Strategy 1.4 of the NIMH Strategic Plan calls for the development, for
research purposes, of new ways of classifying psychopathology based on dimensions of observable behavior
and neurobiological measures. The Research Domain Criteria project (RDoC) has been launched by NIMH to
59
implement this strategy. In brief, the effort is to define basic dimensions of functioning (such as fear circuitry
or working memory) to be studied across multiple units of analysis, from genes to neural circuits to behaviors,
cutting across disorders as traditionally defined. The intent is to translate rapid progress in basic neurobiological and behavioral research to an improved integrative understanding of psychopathology and the development of new and/or optimally matched treatments for mental disorders.”
(http://www.nimh.nih.gov/research-priorities/rdoc/index.shtml).
• Synapse: In the nervous system, a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron to pass an electrical or
chemical signal to another neuron.
• Transnosographic: From nosography. It means “common to distinct diseases”. It is applied to describe
psychological traits, symptoms, research strategies (e.g. RDoC).

Dysfunction of emotions and decision-making can be observed in various forms of psychiatric disorders.
However, assessment and diagnosis of psychiatric disorders has been based on self-report or superficial
observation of patients’ behaviors. The topics about emotion and decision-making have been traditionally
dealt with various discipline including humanities and social sciences. With the dissemination of non-invasive
human neuroimaging techniques and the advancement of cognitive science and computational sciences,
neuroscience studies focusing on emotions and decision-making have become established as a file of social
neuroscience and computational neurosciences. The emerging fields of neuroscience will greatly contribute
to clinical psychiatry. I will introduce our recent interdisciplinary neuroscience approach combining neuroimaging techniques (functional MRI; fMRI and positron emission tomography: PET), cognitive sciences, economics,
pharmacology and engineering to assees, define and understand altered decision-making in neuropsychiatric
disorders. An interdisciplinary approach will provide new perspectives for understanding the neurobiology of
impaired decision-making in neuropsychiatric disorders and their drug development.

I - Introduction
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is able to target with precision specific cerebral networks, thus offering hope for
severe and treatment refractory illnesses, as well as to investigate in the detail the subcortical bases.
In obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), DBS is being tested at several nodes of a prefrontal¬subcortical
circuit, including the subthalamic nucleus (STN). Functional imaging studies of OCD patients have shown
abnormal metabolic activity of the orbito-frontal and cingulate cortices, as well as of the anterior part of the
striatum. In animal and human studies, these structures have been associated with performance-monitoring
and more generally metacognitive processes, thus suggesting that metacognitive dysfunctions might be central to OCD leading to pathological doubt. In this conceptual framework of hyperactive distrust metacognitive
mechanism in OCD, checking behaviour can be regarded as an ill-founded metacognitive strategy designed
to restore confidence in the outcome of one’s actions. Within the basal ganglia network, the STN could act a
crucial part in this process regarding its role in the inhibitory control of behaviour. Moreover, anatomy and neuro-computational models of the basal ganglia show that this nucleus is in the position to implement cortical
metacognitive control by increasing the threshold for decision.
III - Conclusions
This framework has the advantage of providing a theoretical basis to the promising clinical results obtained
for STN-DBS in severe resistant OCD. Bearing in mind this model, it can be postulated that DBS, by its action
on STN, positively interferes with the neural mechanism underlying compulsive behaviour.

Happiness
Chair: Claire ETCHEGARAY
Institut de Recherches Philosophiques (Université Paris 10)
I - Introduction
A basic contradiction lies at the core of philosophical research on happiness: on the one hand, this notion is
indeterminate and on the other hand, it is indispensable. Admittedly, happiness stems from perfect satisfaction. But none of the particular desired objects could ever afford such satisfaction, termed in French “bonheur”, because this means complete well-being. Thus, we first recall the paradox of satisfaction with which
any hedonism is faced. Satisfaction is temporary (if not precarious) because the desire itself seems to be
renewed by pleasure or well-being. This is further complicated by the fact that what is satisfying in one way
can be dissatisfying in another way. Nevertheless, happiness seems to be an indispensable concept for the
theory of action. However incomplete the pursuit of happiness may be, it is taken for granted that an action
is motivated by some intended good. Whatever this good, does it not bring happiness itself? But equating
goodness with happiness is problematic too. One argument against it might be that moral goodness must be
defined independently of any consideration of happiness. However even Kant, the most famous figure in the
history of philosophy, who defended strong deontologism, did not deny that a virtuous man must believe that
he deserves happiness and so believe in the possibility of post-mortem recompense if there is a just Almighty.
This leads to different lines of enquiry in the philosophy of action and in moral philosophy. Taking moral philosophy first, we shall recall the debate between the deontological point of view and consequentialism1. One version
of the latter is utilitarianism, i.e. the defence of utility maximization as a practical criterion. Yet recently, other
options have been explored. “Virtue Ethics” argues that the moral end is neither acting out of moral duty, nor
acting in order to obtain the greatest good (be it pleasure or profit, personal or collective), but that personal perfection which is an achievement of humanity in each self. The definition of happiness changes with these options.
It is an imaginary reward motivating action but not virtue itself for the deontologist, an optimised benefit for the
utilitarian, well-being as the realisation of the nature or the capacities of an agent for the philosopher promoting
virtue ethics. In France, we have recently seen the defence of so-called “minimalist ethics” as a way of saving
moral philosophy from its tendency (in the Western tradition) to be paternalistic. In such a view, morality does not
consist in making oneself or others happy, but only in avoiding harming others (Ogien, 2007).
In all these approaches, researchers draw on the history of philosophy. Thus, one challenge presented by the
readings of Aristotle in “Virtue Ethics” is to conceptualise the good life without subscribing to a straightforward
and naïve naturalism. Another example can be found in the interpretation of Scottish philosophers (like Hutcheson, Hume and Smith), or the classical utilitarians (Bentham and Stuart Mill) in order to conceive of calculating
good in a purely instrumental way.
Secondly, we shall turn to the question “how do we look for happiness?”. In part, the philosophy of action aims
at questioning the rationality of deliberation, decision and action. But in addition, any current philosophical theory
of action must include some theory of “weakness of the will” (akrasia in greek), i.e. it must account for the fact
that sometimes, however desirable an action may be for us (even more desirable than any other in given circumstances) and however much we may believe that this is the action that we must perform, we do not do it.

III - Conclusions
Finally, we shall consider two philosophical approaches that cross into other sciences and question notions
of welfare and quality of life. In the philosophy of medicine, there is a certain French focus on the relationship
between welfare and health, as well as on issues of biotechnological enhancement (Nordenfelt, 2001). In political philosophy, the “capabilities approach” claims that we need to seek institutional guarantees of the material
conditions necessary for the development of human capabilities as the basis for some principles of justice, rather
than founding the theory of just governance on subjective welfarism or on objective utilitarian measures of happiness (PIB, income, etc.) (Sen, 2009 and Nussbaum, 2011).

it does not only prescribe an ethics of pleasure (implying the regulation of pleasure) but also a rational calculation of the way to reach “the greatest good for the greatest number”. It is a kind of consequentialism.
• Welfarism: 1/ In moral philosophy, a theory which argues that the justificatory force of any moral reason is
that it procures well-being, 2/ In social sciences and economics, any approach holding that social well-being
is a political goal to be determined taking into account the expression of individual preferences.
• Capabilities approach: a theory, mainly held by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, that any social and
political conception of justice must stem from reflection on the quality of life. Sen and Nussbaum denounce
welfarism (in sense 2/), pointing out that painful conditions of life can lead to an adaptation of individual
desires and preferences such that declarations of self-satisfaction can be in disaccordance with the actual
quality of life. According to them, the economics of development need to define some fundamental conditions
of the human good life, that is, define the conditions in which human capabilities can be developed.

I - Introduction
The economics of happiness or happiness economics is a challenging and emerging field of research. Economists traditionally focused on objective and measurable concepts such as well being, income, wealth, health,
etc. Since the late nineties economists (Easterlin, Frey, Oswald) have combined sociology, psychology and
cognitive sciences’ inputs and tried to tackle the subjective issue of happiness. The field has grown and used
advanced methods to measure happiness.
The main problem is to measure such a subjective concept: it is difficult to compare levels of happiness across
individuals and across culture. However, despite this methodological difficulty, economists have demonstrated
consistent patterns across time and countries. We shall review those patterns
The economics of happiness tries to resolve puzzles such as: the increasing income and yet non increasing
happiness, the objective and positive effects of globalization and yet increased unhappiness linked to globalization, etc. This approach has also shed light on irrational behavior such as addictive behavior or excessive
consumption.

I - Introduction
What is the "happiness" for us who live in the modern society? In order to answer this question, I would like
to think our personal happiness in consideration of the characteristic points of the present age, especially
thinking how we regard the global environmental issues for our society. Almost five decades already passed,
since such issues became to be shared socially. In the meantime, focusing on their social position there has
been some turning points in a cycle of about 20 years. We can consider the first two decades (1970s-80s) as
the 1st generation, the second (1990s-2000s) as the 2nd generation and now, namely the 20 years beginning
from 2010 as the 3rd generation. This classification does not just depend on counting years, but corresponds
with the change of subjective impression or consciousness of the environmental issues for our society Roughly
saying, we can characterize using simple keyword's, them for the 1st generation as COUNTER, for the 2nd as
TREND and for the 3rd as NORMAL.
II - 1st Generation and 2nd Generation
The 1st generation was the time of counter culture. The environmental pollution by industrialization and the
destruction of nature by development getting more and more serious, the problem in the global level began
to attract social interest in the beginning of 1970s. At that time, economic activities including urbanization
were severely criticized as opposition to environmental protection. Indeed there was a rise of environmental
awareness but it had a tendency to anti-power and anti-establishment and was never mainstream. The people
who had an environmental intention were minority in the society to the last. While the enthusiastic minority
sought after the lifestyle harmonized with nature in the 1st generation, being conscious of the environment
no longer had any anti-power meaning but became to be main stream or trend in the 2nd generation Global
environmental issues achieved the position of main topics for politics and the consideration for them from
industries to families The people with ecological mind lived not in the countryside but in the urban area. The
environmental protection seemed to get reconciled with economic activities, as it was symbolized in the case
of hybrid cars.
What can these generations be considered as the theme of subjectivity? The environmental consciousness
is essentially contrary to the economic activity, because the latter seeks for its own benefit in principle, while
the former fundamentally tries to benefit the others, namely the other people we unconsciously oppress in
daily consumption or the other nature which is different from humankinds. Here is the opposition between
self-interest or egoism and altruism, which is essential criteria for the subjective decision of behavior. The 1st
generation tried to oppose to the selfish economic activity, and aimed at altruism. Although it seems that the
2nd generation succeeded in the mediation between the both sides, it exactly realized the complacency for
the trend-oriented selfish desire. Such divided situation in the mind of the 2nd generation people might have
promoted the absence of the subjectivity as a result.
III - 3rd Generation
Félix Guattari's "Les trois écologies (the three ecologies)" (1989) is small but important in that it suggests the
direction of the 3rd generation. In Guattari’s view, we need to take account not just of the conventional kind of
ecology, the "environmental ecology", for natural environment but of the "social ecology" and also the "mental
ecology" in order to conquer the ecological unbalance with which our modern society is faced, and to establish
the new sort of knowledge, "eco sophie", which should connect these three ecologies.
The three ecologies presented by Guattari could be applied to the three generations mentioned above. The 1st
generation as COUNTER sometimes turned the back to human society, and intended to be just within nature
so that it might be seen in the case of deep ecology. In this point, this generation can be said to solely look for
the "environmental ecology". On the other hand, although being a shallow style as TREND, the 2nd generation
widely intended the "social ecology", in the respect that it has been aiming at sharing the environmental
problem with the society as a whole. In this context, such task will be referred to the 3rd generation as how
69
to be able to introduce the "mental ecology" into the environmental arguments. After passing through two
contrastive generations, the 3rd aims at the new way of subjective behavior. It is NORMAL.
IV -Conclusion
NORMAL is an integration, a sublation or a moderation of the former two generations, because the environmental consciousness remains for our whole society as the 2nd, and tries to be much deeper than just one item
of TREND, looking for a real social change.
In considering the subjectivity of this generation, I would like to take up here the thought of the “Mingei”, the
Japanese Folk Crafts movement since the beginning of 20th century, which has been prevailing again among
Japanese people, especially young generation of designers or artists since around 2000. What Mingei aims
at is “the mediocre, the ordinary, the plural, the public and the common world nobody monopolizes” (YANAGI
1941). It’s easy to grasp a resonance between Mingei and the 3rd generation mentioned here. But the point is
that there is, behind this resonance, some desire for a sensitivity of the importance of our normal daily life. I
would like to name such sensitivity “intimateness” with one’s own life and society and to consider that creating and sharing this intimateness is the happiness for our generation.

consequentialism holds that the value of an action depends on the satisfaction
procured by its results.
Deep ecology ：【ディープ・エコロジー】 is a contemporary ecological and
environmental philosophy characterized by its advocacy of the inherent worth of living
beings regardless of their instrumental utility to human needs. It aims at radical
restructure of modern human societies, based on the idea of fundamental criticism on
humanism.
Deontologism : a theory holding that the value of any action is that it performs or
intends to perform what it has to perform according to any rational law or moral duty
(worthing independently to any sensible pleasure or particular interest). In the history
of philosophy, Immanuel Kant is the major figure in this approach.
Ecosophie：
【エコソフィ・環境知】("ecosophy" in English) is neologism focusing on the
new type of knowledge, formed by contracting the phrase ecological philosophy. The
most famous examples are that of the Norwegian father of deep ecology, Arne Næss
(1912-2009), and that of French postmodern philosopher and psychoanalyst, Félix
Guattari (1930-1992).
71
Egoism：
【利己主義】is placing concern with oneself or one’s owan interests above the
well-being or interests of others.
Hedonism： theory holding that the value of action is pleasure, or some kind of
pleasure which is more constant, or less complicated by pain. In the history of
philosophy, Epicurus is the major figure in this ethics.
Mingei：【民藝】(Min "folk" + gei "craft" in Japanese) is the Japanese folk crafts
movement, which was developed by Japanese philosopher, Muneyoshi Yanagi
(1889-1961) and his sworm friends in the beginning of 20th century in Japan. The
philosophical pillar of Mingei is reevaluation of hand-crafted art for ordinary people
and complete reform of daily lifestyle in modern societies.
Moderation：
【中庸】is a principle of life, eliminating or lessing extremes and ensuring
normality.
Normal：【ふつう】is the one of key concepts for modern product design. Japanese
product designer, Naoto Fukazawa, who was installed in the position of director of
Nihon Mingei-kan (the Japan Folk Crafts Museum) in 2012, selected the typical items
for modern daily life with English product and furniture designer, Jasper Morrison, and
exhibited them under the name "Super-Normal" in 2006.
Subjectivity：
【主体性】is a term used to refer to the condition of being a subject : i.e.,
the quality of a subject’s perspective, experiences, feelings, beliefs, and desires.
Subjectivity is used as an explanation for what influences and informs people’s
judgments about truth ore rality.
Sublation：
【止揚】is a translation of German term "Aufheben" or "Aufhebung", which
has several seemingly contradictory meanings, including "to lift up", "to abolish", or "to
sublate". Especially in philosophy, aufheben is used by Hegel to explain what happens
when a thesis and antithesis interact.

Poster title Improvement of solar cell efficiency using a luminescent top layer of ZnO nanoparticles
Poster abstract Working at the nanoscale presents some advantages and drawbacks as far as the optical
properties of nanomaterials are concerned. It is well known that reducing the size often leads to the unintentional introduction of crystalline defects or impurities in nanoparticles and nanowires, near the surface, which
in turn deteriorates their luminescence. In the present communication, we first show that according to the
chemical synthesis conditions (hydrolysis or co-precipitation), we can control and enhance the visible luminescence of ZnO nanoparticles and even achieve high quantum yield. Our study emphasizes the role of specific elements (Li) or ligands (PAA coating in core-shell structure) on the control of the luminescence quantum
efficiency. Then the ZnO NPs layer is deposited on the top of a solar cell. The ZnO NPs absorb efficiently the
UV photons and emit light at longer wavelengths (which is called energy down-shifting), which subsequently
is absorbed by the solar cell. A relative increase of the UV-wavelength response of a solar cell with a ZnO NPs
layer on its top is demonstrated

Poster title Infrared Light-Field Engineering -To Watch and Handle the Microscopic World
Poster abstract Infrared light is electromagnetic wave with longer wavelengths (or lower frequencies) than
those of visible light. It was discovered in 1800 and nowadays used in industrial, scientific, and medical
applications. One of the most important applications is the infrared spectroscopy that can be used to identify
chemicals. We can see the molecular structure by exploiting the fact that molecules absorb specific frequencies that are characteristic of their structure. In the conventional infrared spectroscopy, thermal radiation has
been used as a light source. In the last two decades, the technologies to generate coherent radiation at various
wavelengths and to control the properties of light-field have been highly developed. Temporal and spatial
localization of the light-field and synthesis of their waveform have become possible in infrared range as well.
Such light-field engineering in the infrared opens up new possibilities to spectroscopy : watching 3D structure
(or conformation) and dynamics of molecules, identifying chemicals with nanometer-scale spatial resolution,
etc. Synthesized infrared light has the potential not only to watch but so to handle the events occurring at the
microscopic world. The challenges to control the motion of electrons, atoms and molecules are carried out.

I am fascinated by the power that music has on our body, heart and brains. My research combines experimental methods to study the emotional impact of music and sound (experimental psychology, brain imaging)
and computational techniques to understand what part of the acoustic signal is able to trigger such reactions
(music information retrieval, computational neuroscience). I’m the recipient of a 2013 ERC Starting Grant for

Poster Title I sound happy, therefore I am
Poster Abstract Using a commercial voice synthesizer, we have created a platform that can alter the emo-
tional quality of participant’s speech in real-time (e.g. in the direction of sadness, fear, happiness, etc.). In our
first study, participants were given the task of reading a story out loud while wearing a headset with a microphone. The voices of the participants were then transformed and fed back in the headphones with a specific
emotional tone. Afterwards, the participants were asked to rate the emotionality of the story and their own
experience during the reading. The results show that while participants often fail to notice the manipulation,
it can significantly influence their emotional experience (assessed both with psychological tests and physiological measures), thus conclusively demonstrating a feedback effect of the quality of voice expression on our
own emotions.

Poster title Can inactivation of the subthalamic nucleus help treating alcoholism?
Y. Pelloux and C. Baunez - Institut de Neurosciences de la Timone, UMR 7289 CNRS & Aix-Marseille Université,
Marseille, France
Poster abstract The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is the current target for the High Frequency Stimulation
(HFS) treatment of Parkinson’s Disease or Obsessive Compulsive Disorders. Studying the impact of STN inactivation by either lesions or HFS in intact rats, we observed decreased motivation for cocaine with increased
motivation for food reward (Baunez et al., 2005, Rouaud, Lardeux et al., 2010). STN lesions were also shown
to increase motivation for alcohol in rats showing a high consumption in a forced consumption test, while
decreasing the motivation for alcohol in the low drinker group (Lardeux and Baunez, 2008). The present study
aimed to assess the effect of inactivating STN on diagnostic criteria for alcoholism i.e. 1) loss of control over
alcohol intake, 2) alcohol use at the expense of other rewards and 3) despite adverse consequences (punishment) and 4) on the motivational modification observed after extended alcohol use. We developed a model evidencing after the loss of control over alcohol intake, a preference for the substance over non addictive reward
(such as saccharine) in some vulnerable animals. Preliminary data show that STN lesion tends to prevent the
loss of control over alcohol intake. Ongoing experiments are assessing the ability of STN lesion 1) to restore
the control over alcohol intake of rats having previously lost it and 2) to reallocate alcohol related behaviors
towards alternative natural rewards. After having controlled that STN lesion leaves the memory for aversive
event unaffected, 3) further studies are also currently assessing its ability to reduce alcohol use in face of
punishment. These results should validate the pertinence of targeting the STN against alcoholism.

Poster abstract Chondritic organic matter might have evolved on its parent body where subjected to shock
metamorphism [1-2]. If the effects of shock waves on minerals have been studied in details from the experimental and observational approaches [3-4] little is known on their effect on the carbonaceous component.
Here, we experimentally exposed fragments of matrix of the Murchison chondrite to shock loading up to 40
GPa. We describe the effects on the mineralogy as well as on the organic component. Samples of Murchison
meteorite (CM) were obtained through loan by the Museum of Natural History (Chicago). The sample was
powdered and pressed to obtain 1 cm in diameter and 1 mm thick pellets. Pellets were then incorporated in a
steel container and shocked to pressure of approximately 5-10-20 and 40 GPa, using a single-stage propellant gun (5-10-20 GPa) and a two-stage light gas gun (40 GPa) at the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Samples
were then recovered and powdered. IR spectra were measured using the Hyperion microscope at IPAG, and
Raman spectra were obtained using the Labram HR at ENS Lyon.
IR spectra were obtained in the 2-15 micron region, and provide insights into the nature of the silicate phase
present. As shock pressure increases the 3 μm band (-OH and H2O) appears to decrease in intensity with
regard to the 10 μm band, indicative of a progressive dehydration of the phyllo-silicate phase. For the sample
shocked at pressure of 5 to 20 GPa, minor effects are observed on the 10 μm band, which remains broad
and structureless, which reveals the presence of a poorly crystalline phyllosilicate [5]. However in the case
of the sample shocked at a pressure of 40 GPa, the 10 μm band clearly shows structure, which we interpret
by the presence of well crystalline phyllosilicates. Raman spectra were directly measured on the powdered
sample, and analyzed following [6]. When plotted in a FWHM vs Band G diagram, the samples shocked at 5,
10 and 20 GPa do not appear distinct from the initial samples. However in the case of the sample shocked at
40 GPa, a clear distinction is seen with regard to the other samples. A metamorphic trend is observed, which is
distinguishable from long duration thermal metamorphism. The origin of this trend and its relation with those
observed in chondritic samples will be discussed.

I work on the statistical analysis of the spatial organization of biological structures because functions and spatial architectures in biology are closely related. I mainly use images acquired using confocal or light microscopy. Then, I develop approaches for: the 3D reconstruction and modeling of structures, the spatial normalization
and quantification of organizations, and the statistical comparison of experimental groups. Such developments
contribute to revealing and to understanding the functioning of complex biological systems.

Poster title Analysis and comparison of the spatial organization of biological structures: the
particular case of punctual data
Poster abstract In biology, functions are closely related to specific spatial architectures. Many molecular,
histological and imaging techniques allow to reveal how biological structures are organized in 3D. However,
the lack of quantitative methods devoted to the analysis of the images produced is a recurrent problem
reported in the scientific community. In particular, the developpement of statistical procedures that allow to
reveal significant differences between 3D biological organizations remains an important ongoing challenge.
To illustrate the overall approach that we developped for the analysis and the comparison of biological structures, we focus here on data assimilated to sets of points (e.g., positions of endosomes in cells or of neurons
in neuronal populations). Inferring the way in which points are distributed in 3D is not a simple issue, especially when it comes at integrating repeated experiments. The approach we present here includes the spatial
normalization of data, the building of a statistical model of a point distribution, and the comparison of groups
of point patterns. Our methodology being generic, it can be used to analyze various biological systems and at
different scales.

Poster title Versatility of tannins as precursors of new carbon materials
Poster abstract Condensed tannins are abundant, non toxic and renewable raw materials. Mainly extracted
from tree barks, these polyphenolic molecules have commercial applications in leatherwork but their interest is
growing in the chemical and food industries. Their chemical structure and their reactivity make them easily polymerised, leading to high-quality thermoset resins. Whether these resins are foamed, gelled, or polymerized after
emulsification, spray-drying, hydrothermal treatment, or self-assembly of amphiphilic surfactants, a number of
different architectures can be built. The phenolic and highly aromatic nature of the crosslinked resins allows
obtaining an excellent glasslike carbon after pyrolysis. In this poster, many different materials will be presented
as well as their performances in the main applications in which they have been successfully tested: vitreous carbon foams, aerogels, micro or hollow spheres, polyHIPEs, ordered mesoporous carbons, etc., for electromagnetic
absorption, electrochemical storage, microbial fuel cells, conductive inks, thermal insulation, and so forth.

Research Field Drug addiction Animal models Experimental psychopathology Psychobiology
Neurobiology
I have been conducting experimental research on drug addiction since the early 90s. I always challenged the
classical experimental preparations used to model drug addiction. This led to the development of the first
DSM-based animal model of addiction, acknowledged as a key innovation. A new challenge is the coordination
of the OptoPath project for an innovative platform in experimental psychopathology based on cutting edge
exploratory techniques and a dimensional transnosographic approach of key psychopathologies, i.e. addiction,
obesity, PTSD, and aging-related memory deficits.

Research field Astrochemistry spectroscopy low temperature reactivity kinetic
A major theme of our group is the study of the chemical evolution of primitive interstellar ices induced by
energetic processes such as irradiation by UV photons bombardment by hydrogen or by thermal effects. The
objective is to determine the possible mechanisms leading to the formation of complex organic molecules
from interstellar ice analogues. We have shown that through simulation experiments in the laboratory based
mainly on spectroscopic techniques (infrared, mass spectrometry) it was possible to obtain information on
the evolution of matter in protostellar and cometary environments. We were able to demonstrate a direct link
between primitive molecules (H2O , CH3OH , NH3 … ) contained in the coat of ice covering interstellar grains
and molecules observed in the refractory organic residues (HMT, Polymers) obtained after irradiation and heating of these ices. These residues can be treated as cometary grain analogues. These results will undoubtedly
assist in the interpretation of data from space missions such as Rosetta mission.

Poster title Chemistry in interstellar ice analogues
Poster abstract Whereas complex organic molecules are observed in a large variety of astrophysical ob-
jects, little is known about their formation mechanism. Laboratory simulations on interstellar ice analogues
are thus crucial to understand the origin of those complex organic molecules. In this context, we determine
the formation mechanism of one major product detected in the organic residue formed in laboratory: the
Hexamethylenetetramine (HMT). We compare the warming of the photolysed interstellar ice analogue with
the warming of two non-photolysed specific ice mixtures H2CO:NH3:HCOOH and CH2NH:HCOOH, used as
references. Using both global and specific approaches, we show the precise role of the UV photons and the
thermal processing in the HMT formation.

My primary interests are in philosophy of belief and scepticism. I am currently working on Eighteenth Century
Philosophy, especially British Enlightenment, as it was a major scene of the debate on scepticism at that time.
In this respect, I focus on metaphysical issues, epistemological theses and medical views, along with moral
positions. Beside, I am interested in various ways of so-called “answers to scepticism” in contemporary philosophy, regarding either belief in general or peculiar evidence (e.g. testimonial evidence, perceptual evidence).
I am also working on contemporary theories of action.

My main research interest is to extract as much information as possible from the Earth’s responses, especially
from seismograms generated by either natural earthquakes or active sources to infer detailed structure of our
planet from global scale to several kilometers’ subsurface scale. To pursue this, I have developed theoretical/
numerical tools for inverting waveforms themselves and have applied them to real data.

Poster title Towards high-frequency waveform inversion for Earth’s structure
Poster abstract Waveform inversion aims to estimate high-resolution Earth models by minimising the dif-
ference between observed and modelled seismic waveforms. From global (e.g., Takeuchi 2012) or regional
(e.g., Fichtner et al. 2010; Konishi et al. 2012) to local scales (e.g., Ratcliffe et al. 2011), waveform inversion
studies have become a topic of great interest in exploration of our planet. In order to obtain high resolution, it is
required to analyse as high frequency data as possible, by using as accurate an inversion method as possible.
In this presentation, we will summarise some of our important numerical tools to concur the computational
burden to conduct high-frequency waveform inversion in the near future.

Poster title Application of Buddhist theory to support for children of evacuees by Fukushima
nuclear accident
Poster abstract Fukushima nuclear accident caused by the earthquake of 2011 has produced more than
100,000 refugees who avoided their own residence. While 1mSv was the standard for residence before the
accident, this standard has been raised to 20mSv without a sufficient explanation to residents after the accident. As a result, parents who worry about the effects of radiation on children have evacuated to the area that
seems safer from the point of radiation. However, in the political and social situation in Japan, which is strongly
influenced by local officials who are narrow-minded and lazy, I suspect that there is a strong and silent pressure which recommends a return to their own residence for evacuees now. Regardless of the actual impact of
radiation, it is true that strong mental stress on evacuees exists and that the local government has not carried
out sufficient measures. Since parents have strong interest in education, so based on Buddhist theory, which
is called ‘ no-self ‘ or ‘ change of mind ’, I am providing a "place to accept children of evacuees mentally", and
further arbitrating conflict between ordinary Japanese volunteers who have no religious background.

Poster title Music Information Research: Active Music Listening Interfaces and Singing Synthesis
Systems
Poster abstract I introduce the frontiers of music technologies by showing some examples of our research
on active music listening interfaces and singing synthesis systems.
Active music listening interfaces demonstrate how end users can benefit from music understanding technologies. Active music listening aims at allowing the user to understand better the music he or she listens to and
to actively influence the listening experience. For example, a web service for active music listening, "Songle"
(http://songle.jp), facilitates deeper understanding of music by visualizing its music scene descriptions estimated automatically, such as music structure, hierarchical beat structure, melody line, and chords. The user
can actively browse a song by jumping to a chorus or repeated section during playback.
Singing synthesis systems, "VocaListener" and "VocaWatcher", imitate singing expressions of the voice and
face of a human singer. VocaListener can synthesize natural singing voices by analyzing and imitating the
pitch and dynamics of the human singing. VocaWatcher can generate realistic facial motions of a humanoid
robot by analyzing and imitating facial motions of a human singing that are recorded by a single video camera.
These systems that focus on "imitation" are not only promising for representing human-like naturalness, but
also useful for providing intuitive control means.

Poster title Star formation and the interstellar cycle
Poster abstract Stars are the building blocks of our universe. On large scales, they determine the evolution of
galaxies while on small scales, they host planets like ours. Stars are also fundamental since they synthetize the
heavy elements, such as carbon and oxygen, which are essential for molecular complexity and eventually life.
While it is now well established that stars form through gravitational collapse within molecular clouds, the
details of this process remain largely unknown. In particular, at which rate they form?, what is their mass
distribution?, how do they feedback on the surrounding medium? are fundamental but partially understood
questions.
Another fundamental issue is how the protoplanetary disk, that form around the protostars and which will
eventually give raise to a solar system do form and evolve.
This field of research constitutes a good example of how collaborations between scientists of complementary
skills are necessary to make progress. Indeed, theory, numerical simulations and observations are all crucial
and must be developed in parallel.

Poster title Ultrathin Materials
Poster abstract When the thickness of materials becomes thin, novel properties or functions that are dif-
ferent from the three-dimensional bulk compound can be expected to appear. First, the quantum size effect will
come into play and the electronic states will be discretized. Further reducing the size will induce a dimensional
crossover from a three-dimensional material to a two-dimensional one. The most significant experimental
realization of this is graphene, which is a monolayer sheet of carbon. On the other hand, there are some cases
in which the interesting properties of materials become absent due to the size reduction. This is a key issue in
nanotechnology, in which we are currently making use of the intriguing properties mostly found in silicon. As
an alternative example, it is well known that superconductivity is usually suppressed in low-dimensional, thin
materials. Therefore, understanding the fundamental physical properties of thin materials, especially ultrathin
systems in the atomic scale, is a crucial issue in terms of basic science as well as application to nanotechnology. In my poster, I will show several examples of ultrathin materials other than graphene, such as silicene,
monoatomic layer superconducting films, and topological systems.

I am interested in the evolutionary basis of human mind and behavior. My major topic is social intelligence in
great apes. For example, I have been studying cooperation, deception, and social intelligence in great apes
from comparative cognitive science. I have also conducted field work to study wild chimpanzees, bonobos,
gorillas in Africa and orangutans in Malaysia.

Poster Title Humans and chimpanzees attend differently to goal-directed actions
Poster Abstract Humans comprehend the actions of others by making inferences about intentional mental
states of another. However, little is known about how this capacity develops and whether this is shared with
other animals. Here we show the ontogenetic and evolutionary foundations of this ability by comparing the eye
movements of 8- and 12-month-old human infants, adults and chimpanzees as they watched videos presenting
goal-directed and non-goal-directed actions by an actor. We find that chimpanzees anticipate action goals in
the same way as do human adults. Humans and chimpanzees, however, scan goal-directed actions differently.
Humans, particularly infants, refer to actors’ faces significantly more than do chimpanzees. In human adults,
attentional allocation to an actor’s face changes as the goal-directed actions proceed. In the case of non-goaldirected actions, human adults attend less often to faces relative to goal-directed actions. These findings indicate
that humans have a predisposition to observe goal-directed actions by integrating information from the actor.

Poster title Innovative tools for characterizing ceramic materials
Poster abstract A better understanding of the behavior of the ceramic materials at the nanometer scale
may have a great interest in order to enhance their processing or their mechanical properties. Nanoindentation experiments were developed to study and to observe the behavior of nanometer-size nanoparticles. First
results obtained are not obvious and may have a strong impact on the compaction process prior to sintering.
Another approach was also developed to better characterize the ceramics: a coupling of transmission electron
microscopy and simulation works (molecular dynamics and density functional theory). This second approach
was developed in the framework of an international laboratory between Lyon and Sendai (ELyT laboratory).

I am interested in studying how earthquakes nucleate in the Earth. Based on analysis of continuous seismic waveforms, I have recently been involved with seismicity analysis such as foreshocks, aftershocks and
induced seismicity. In addition, because heterogeneity in fault zone may play an important role to concentrate
stress, I have imaged highly-resolved crustal structures by deploying many portable seismic stations and
discussed the link between the structural anomaly and seismicity.

Poster title Quantum Cryptography: in theory and in practice
Poster abstract Quantum Information Processing has the potential to revolutionize the future of informa-
tion technologies. A tremendous research effort by computer scientists, physicists, mathematicians, engineers, has been put into addressing each of the major challenges in the area, from quantum algorithms and
complexity to quantum cryptography, to large-scale realizations of quantum computers. Shor's algorithm for
factoring shows that most currently used classical security systems, such as RSA, are vulnerable against
quantum computers. In addition, the ability to communicate over quantum channels has made it possible to
revisit unconditionally secure cryptography. In one of the most celebrated results in quantum computation,
Bennett and Brassard showed that it is possible for two parties to distribute a secret key in a way that is
unconditionally secure against all attacks. It is important to note that there have been real implementations of
key distribution over hundreds of kilometers. In this poster, I am presenting some fundamental results in the
area of quantum cryptography both from a theoretical and experimental perspective.

Poster title Inhibition of microtubule assembly by an actin-aplyronine A complex
Poster abstract The discovery of bioactive natural products often triggers the development of basic concepts
in the field of biological sciences, since these compounds have direct physiological and behavioral effects
on living organisms. Recent technological advancements including spectroscopic analyses and genetic approaches have provided outstanding opportunities for new discoveries, even in the case of scarce, unstable,
and composite compounds. These compounds should provide a rich source of chemical diversity that could be
used to design and develop new potentially useful therapeutic agents and pharmacological tools, such as anticancer, antimicrobial, or antiviral drugs. Aplyronine A (ApA) is a rare marine natural product that shows potent
antitumor activity. However, its molecular targets and mechanisms of action in cells have remained unclear.
By using fluorescence microscopy observations and photoaffinity-tag experiments, we now show that ApA
synergistically binds to tubulin in association with actin, inhibits tubulin polymerization, and prevents spindle
formation and mitosis in tumor cells. Tubulin-targeting agents have been widely used in cancer chemotherapy.
To our knowledge, however, there are no previous descriptions of microtubule inhibitors that also bind to actin
and affect microfilament dynamics. Our studies of ApA provide further insights into the molecular mechanisms
of structurally diverse natural products that regulate cytoskeletal dynamics

Poster title Major weakening of geomagnetic field causes climatic cooling
Poster abstract Observed correlation between galactic cosmic ray (CR) flux and cloud cover suggested that
variations in geomagnetic field intensity may change the climate through modulation of CR flux. However, this
hypothesis was not backed up by robust geological evidence. Here we present paleoclimate and paleoenvironment records of five interglacial periods that include two geomagnetic polarity reversals. During the
geomagnetic reversal, the shielding effect of the geomagnetic field is greatly reduced and CR flux almost
doubled. Two interglacial periods, 19 and 31, contain anomalous cooling intervals within the warmest phase,
which corresponds to the Matuyama–Brunhes and Lower Jaramillo geomagnetic reversals, respectively. This
contrasts strongly with the typical interglacial periods that do not have any such abnormal cooling during
the warmest phase. The cooling occurred when the field intensity dropped to <40% of its present value, for
which we estimate >40% increase in CR flux. The climate warmed rapidly when field intensity recovered. A
relatively cool climate during these geomagnetic polarity reversals is observed in other regions across the low
and middle latitudes. We suggest that geomagnetic field intensity can influence global climate through the
modulation of CR flux.

Poster title Water Oxidation Catalyzed by Artificial Transition Metal Complexes
Poster abstract Water oxidation (2H2O → O2 + 4H+ + 4e–) is considered the main bottleneck in the pro-
duction of chemical fuels from sunlight and/or electricity. In nature, the water oxidation is efficiently catalyzed
by the oxygen evolving complex (OEC) in photosystem II (PSII). Because the replication or extraction of OEC is
extremely difficult, some synthetic molecular catalysts have been investigated in the last decades. However,
the development of efficient, robust and abundant metal-based molecular catalysts remains a challenging
target. We have investigated the development of water oxidation catalysts by transition metal complexes.
Recently, we reported that some mononuclear ruthenium complexes serve as efficient catalysts for this reaction.
This finding has become a breakthrough because most of researchers in this field believed that the four-electron
process leading to O2 evolution from water could be much more efficiently accelerated by use of two or more
metal centers. In this poster, the O2-evolving catalysis of these mononuclear ruthenium complexes, together
with the mechanism of the O2-evolving catalysis, will be discussed.

Poster Title Neural activity modulation employing Real-time fMRI-based Neuro-feedback
Poster Abstract Neuro-feedback refers to the method whereby a subject monitors his/her own neural
activity in a particular brain region of interest, and gains the ability to willfully control the level of neural
activity. Recently, self-monitoring of neural activity in subcortical and other deep brain areas, as well as areas
related to higher-order brain function, became possible with the development of real-time fMRI. The purpose
of this research is to determine whether fMRI-based Neuro-feedback training holds promise for improving
the emotional and social cognition of individuals with psychiatric disorders which have been difficult to treat
using drugs alone. This is a nascent research area as there have been few reports so far on fMRI-based neurofeedback training for the treatment of psychiatric disorders such as those mentioned above. It is evident that
subjects are able to increase amygdala activity through neuro-feedback training, and that in order to willfully
control amygdala activity, simultaneous activity in the insula and MPFC are necessary. From these results, it
appears that the rehabilitation of psychiatric patients may be a plausible application of biofeedback training.

Poster title Legal Reform for the Governance of Waters
Poster abstract Japan is located in the Monsoon Asia, it has significant amount of annual precipitation in the
form of rain in the south and of snow in the north. Although it suffers from flood every year, the amount of available water resources per capita is very limited. The supply -demand balance of water resources is tight in big
cities. Moreover, fish catches have declined significantly. Why can these phenomena occur, how can we define
the goals and how can these problems can be solved in cost-effective ways? Instead of depending too heavily on
technological solutions (i.e. dams or desalination plants), my research explores legal solutions based on historical
analysis of the underlying issues especially when they are cost-effective. Firstly, to mitigate flood damages to
the society, the possibility of “river basin flood mitigation ordinances” (land use regulation of flood plains), are
explored. Secondly, to coordinate the supply-demand balance, sustainable use of groundwater through local ordinances and water transfer are recommended. Thirdly, to mitigate the negative impact to the environment especially ecosystems, index species (i.e. salmons and sweet fish) are chosen and plural alternatives are explored (i.e.
to maintain, renew or remove the dam while assessing the impact to the index species).

Poster title Topological phases in condensed matter physics
Poster abstract One of the recent hot topics in condensed matter physics is various topological phases
realized in materials. They include quantum Hall systems, which were experimentally found in 1980, and topological insulators, which were theoretically proposed in 2005 and experimentally confirmed in 2007. In these
systems, the interior is insulating and not conducting electric current, whereas the system boundaries (edges
or surfaces) are metallic. This property persists even if the material is cut into two; the section then immediately becomes a surface, and it becomes metallic. This novel property is attributed to a topological order in the
material. It is interesting that such an abstract mathematical concept is hidden in real materials. In my poster
presentation, we explain these concepts for electrons in real materials. Recently we are also extending such
a concept into other particles in condensed materials. The particles to be studied include photons (light) and
magnons (spin waves) in magnets. In my poster we also explain these theories, and show how the concept of
topological order is universally found in various particles in condensed materials.

Poster Title Near-field Nanophotonics for Computing and Security
Poster Abstract There is a great demand for novel computing devices and architectures that can overcome the
limitations of conventional technologies based solely on electron transfer, including the need to reduce energy
consumption and solve computationally demanding problems. Security is becoming ubiquitously important to
safeguard against threats. A promising solution is near-field nanophotonics, which has been extensively studied
with the aim of unveiling and exploiting light–matter interactions that occur at a scale below the wavelength of
light, and recent progress made in experimental technologies—both in nanomaterial fabrication and in characterization—is driving further advancements in the field. We demonstrate that the dynamics of optical energy
transfer mediated by near-fields interactions can be exploited to solve solution searching and decision making
problems. By introducing simple state-filling mechanisms for controlling the energy transfer among multiple
quantum dots, we successfully solved a constraint satisfaction problem, the satisfiability problem (SAT), and the
multi-armed bandit problem. The emergent intellectual abilities of these near-field nanophotonic systems are
attributed to the probabilistic and nonlocal nature inherent in the optical-near-field–mediated energy transfer
dynamics. Also, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate information security applications, such as information hiding and authentication, by using hierarchical properties of optical near-fields.

Poster title Measuring attosecond electron wavepacket motion in molecules with
a high-harmonic spectroscopy
Poster abstract Achieving attosecond time resolution allows us to measure electron dynamics in the valence
state of molecules with the vibrational motion essentially frozen. Two approaches have been demonstrated to
probe attosecond dynamics : to use optical pulses and so-called re-colliding electron pulses. The mechanism
behind the measurements is the tunnel ionization and electron re-collision process which occurs in intense
laser fields. When gaseous molecules (or atoms) are exposed in intense laser fields, an electron of molecules
is ejected to the ionization continuum at the peak of the laser fields. Within less than one optical period, the
electron returns to the parent molecules with accelerated by the laser field. Upon re-collision between the
ionized electron and the parent molecules, the physical processes such as electron scattering, second ionization, and high-harmonic emission can occur. The high-harmonic emission includes attosecond optical pulses
and can be utilized to probe attosecond dynamics. In addition, the spectral amplitude, phase and polarization
of high-harmonics emitted from molecules carry information on the electronic and vibrational structure of the
molecule and their attosecond dynamics. We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that the process
can be used to measure electron dynamics in molecules with attosecond time-resolution.

Session topic Dual roles of maximizing likelihood and Shannon entropy
Research Field Bayesian prediction, model averaging, conjugate prior, generalized linear model, food safety science
My research is in Bayesian statistics, and specifically in revealing theoretical aspects of its nice performance. I
am currently interested in the model averaging and the prediction problem. I focus attention on dualistic roles
of the maximization of the likelihood and that of the Shannon entropy, two of the most important notions in
statistics. My research pursuits a close linkage between information science and physics such as thermodynamics and electromagnetism.

Research Field Cell Biology
Mitosis is a process whereby a complete copy of the genetic information is distributed to each daughter cell.
This process is critically important, with even small errors leading to aneuploidy or cell death. My research
interests focus on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the dynamic mitotic process in mammalian cells. In particular, I am interested in the differences and similarities in mitosis between somatic cells
and early-stage embryos.

Poster title Co-evolution of life and Earth indicated from Fe-rich rocks
Poster abstract Earth’s surface environments, which are greatly influenced by the biological activities, have
evolved through geologic history. One of the most significant events that occurred on Early Earth (i.e., before 2
billion years ago) is the emergence of oxygen-producing bacteria and the subsequent oxygenation of atmosphere and ocean since it is thought to further promote the evolution of life (e.g., eukaryotes). The transition in
redox conditions on the Earth’s surface is also important for the formation of giant metal (e.g., iron, uranium)
deposits that we mine today because some metals change their chemical behaviors with redox conditions.
However, the timings of the emergence of oxygen-producing bacteria and oxygenation of the Earth’s surface
environments are not well constrained. Therefore, the goal of my research is to identify the timings based on
geochemical signatures recorded in rocks that were chemically precipitated from ancient oceans. My current
research is focused to examine enrichments of iron and chromium, both of which are considered to be redoxsensitive elements, in chemical sedimentary rocks in South Africa that were formed 3.2 billion years ago.
Geochemcial and isotopic study of the rocks may suggest that a part of ocean had been already oxygenated
by 3.2 billion years ago.

Research field Nanoelectronics
Nanoelectronics devices provide fantastic opportunities for electronic systems, offering new functions in an
extremely energy efficient way. However, they also possess less desirable features like variability, and the difficulty to achieve acceptable yield. Fully exploiting nanoelectronics potential thus calls for novel architectures
and design approaches.
I am developing approaches to exploit nanoelectronics, able to process the huge flow of natural data modern
systems are confronted to. I am specially interested in the bioinspired road. Biology is indeed able to exploit
its own nanodevices - which in some aspects are similar to the ones we are fabricating - in a fantastically
efficient way. My two major inspirations are synapses from the brain (ANR COGNISPIN project), and a Bayesian
interpretation of Biological signaling mechanisms (CNRSI/MI DEFIBAYES and FP7 BAMBI projects).

Poster Abstract The DEFIBAYES project (funded by Mission pour l’Interdisciplinarité du CNRS) explores the
design of a novel low power computing paradigm for electronics. It exploits new kinds of magnetic electron
devices and takes its original inspiration in the biological signaling mechanisms. Its core idea is to perform
Bayesian probabilities computation instead of deductive logic, which has implications on all levels of the system design. The project follows an integrated research from nanotechnology to the macroscopic application
and aims at applications in robotics and ubiquitous computing.

Poster title Design, synthesis and manipulation of technomimetic molecules: Molecular wheels, nanovehicles, rotors and motors
Poster abstract In the macroscopic world, the movement of rotation is at the source of many examples of
machines and motors. Recent advances in the imaging and manipulation of single molecules has stimulated
much interest in the synthesis of molecules exhibiting unique mechanical properties. Technomimetic molecules [1] are molecules designed to imitate macroscopic objects at the molecular level, also transposing the
motions that these objects are able to undergo. In this talk we will present the preparation and single-molecule study on functional nanovehicles i.e. molecular vehicles capable to transport a cargo and unidirectional
molecular motor. The nanovehicles [2] with two (wheelbarrow in this case) or four triptycene [3] wheels
are assembled around a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon platform. The molecular motor[4] is built around a
ruthenium center coordinated to a cyclopentadienyl ligand terminated with five ferrocene electroactive groups.
The synthesis of the motor will be presented as well as variable temperature NMR experiments, STM study
and electrochemistry studies showing the control of the unidirectional rotation[5]. [1] (a) G. Rapenne, Org.

Poster title Neurocognitive flexibility in language and brain
Poster abstract Interdisciplinary perspective is required to study the interplay between brain structures and
language function, by bridging the fields of neurolinguistics and language/communication sciences. To understand better the neurobiological mechanisms involved to process language (speaking and hearing), one
way is to study impaired language following brain dysfunction (e. g. patients suffering from brain damage
affecting Broca’s area). The impact of neurological disorder on language skills may be carefully described by
examining disrupted, preserved and recovered abilities. Another way is to look at the development of new language skills that could affect brain structures dedicated to language. In this line, a comparative study including
contrasted languages, such as French and Japanese, may be relevant to check whether acquiring a « very
different » foreign language makes some structural or activity changes in the adult brain, then resulting from
intensive language learning and practice. Such methods reveal neurolinguistic flexibility assumed by brain
structures and language skills, by investigating (1) how do altered neurocognitive structures and processing
(e. g. due to a lesion) affect language use? and (2) how does language learning (e. g. a new language) affect
neurocognitive structures and processing?

As a clinical psychiatrist, I am interested in altered decision-making in neuropsychiatric disorders. For the
understanding the neural basis of decision-making, I am conducting multidisciplinal projects (MRI, positron
emission tomography, computational neuroscience, pharmacology, economics, psychology etc). Taken advantage of these approaches, I would like to establish computational psychiatry for more scientific diagnosis and
novel therapy.

Poster Title Spin Phase Electronics Using Chiral Magnet
Poster Abstract The concept of chirality, meaning left or right handedness, plays an essential role in sym-
metry properties of nature at all length scales from elementary particles to biological systems. In materials
science, chiral materials are found in molecules or crystals with helical structures, which break mirror and
inversion symmetries but combine rotational and translational symmetries. Chiral materials frequently exhibit
intriguing functionality because electrons distribute themselves along chiral framework of atomic configurations and their rotational and translational motions couple to give specific physical processes. In this poster,
we directly present that chiral magnetic order called chiral soliton lattice (CSL) emerges in a magnetic crystal
CrNb3S6, which belongs to chiral space group, by means of low-temperature Lorenz transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) and small-angle electron scattering (SAES) method. We demonstrate that CSL is tunable,
stable, robust, topological, and coherent spin phase state that appears in a macroscopic scale. These functionalities, unique to CSL protected by crystal chirality, will open up a route to a new paradigm for spin electronics
applications using chiral magnetic crystals.

Poster title Elastic waves in granular crystals: micro-rotation and nonlinearities
Poster abstract Elastic wave propagation is studied theoretically and experimentally in various periodic
arrangements of mm- to cm-scale beads, denoted as granular crystals. The studied one-dimensional granular chains, 2D membranes and 3D arrangements show strong dispersion properties when the wavelength is
comparable to the bead size (forbidden propagation bands, frequency dependent velocity …). We focus in particular on the processes related to the rotational degree of freedom of the beads and on the nonlinear elastic
coupling at the contact between beads. We report for instance the existence and analyze pure rotational waves
and coupled modes of propagation involving rotation of the beads in granular crystals.

Poster Title Synthesis and study of cyanobutadiyne and methylcyanobutadiyne: two interstellar
compounds
Poster Abstract Some cyanopolyynes (H-(C≡C)n-CN) and methylcyanopolyynes (CH3-(C≡C)n-CN) have been
detected in the interstellar medium (ISM) as well as on Titan for some of them. They could have played a role
during the development of the prebiotic chemistry on Primitive Earth, according to some studies on cyanoacetylene, the first member of these families (n=1). However, except this latter, their synthesis in the laboratory
is not easy, and most of them have never been synthesized so far. An efficient and easy synthetic pathway
would allow to study them and to understand their implication in prebiotic chemistry.
Few years ago, we synthesized the cyanobutadiyne (H-C≡C-C≡C-CN) and could thus study its formation
pathway in the ISM by photolysis of binary mixtures of acetylenic compounds. More recently, we have been
interested by its methylated conterpart, the methylcyanobutadiyne (CH3-C≡C-C≡C-CN), which has been scarcely studied. We proposed an original synthesis and tried to understand its formation in the ISM. We could
show that a mixture of gases under UV radiations could lead to its formation in this medium.

XOur recent research deals with theoretical and experimental aspects of alternative computing using open
dissipative nonlinear optics. We proposed a new computing scheme named as a “coherent computer” using
the laser network for solving NP-hard Ising models efficiently. Ising models are mapped onto Iaser networks,
up or down M Ising spins are represented by the eigenstates of oscillators and Ising terms are mapped onto
the mutual coupling between each oscillators, to find its ground state from 2^M eigenstates.

Poster title Coherent Ising machine using a laser network
Poster abstract Optimization problems are well known computationally hard problems in our modern life
such as weather forecast, protein holding problems, stock price prediction, travelling salesman problems, and
so on. Even supercomputer cannot solve those problems exactly because the required computational time
scales exponentially as the growth of their problem size. Those optimization problems are classified into as
NP-complete/hard problems. The quantum computing is one of the possibilities to solve those computationally
hard problems efficiently. Recently new type of quantum computing called as quantum annealing has gotten
a lot of attention recently
We recently proposed a coherent Ising machine to solve NP-hard 3D Ising models efficiently using laser
network which can be implemented by semiconductor lasers, optical parametric oscillators or fiber mode
locked lasers. The algorithm of coherent computer is quite new and different from existing quantum computing or quantum annealing, based on the minimum gain principle of a laser network. The numerical results
we performed so far reasonably suggest the effective computational power of the proposed a coherent Ising
machine. We also show our recent experimental result of four -site Ising model implementation.

Poster Title Wearing the Texisense smart socks to prevent diabetic foot ulceration? Yes, we can!
Poster Abstract Although most existing insole plantar pressure monitoring systems are promising in their
ability to measure in real time the pressures at the foot/insole interface, they do suffer from several limitations.
Sensor technology is included in the insole that prevents any overpressure detection in the dorsal surfaces
of the toes and the feet, they still need a wire connection that makes them inappropriate to a daily use and
they are prohibitively expensive for widespread consumer and clinical use. A promising approach to partly
overcome these disadvantages could be the development of textile technologies. We designed a fully wireless,
customizable and washable sock made of a textile able to measure pressures all around the foot and the
ankle. Preliminary studies showed that Texisense smart socks are a functional device that meets requirements
in terms of valid and reliable real time, long-term and in-situ foot pressure monitoring and in terms of comfort,
portability, ease of use and aesthetics for a daily use. Clinical studies are currently performed to assess the
effectiveness of the Texisense smart socks in educating and alerting patients and helping the podiatrists and
the footwear industry to improve insole and/or shoe design in order to prevent foot ulcers and lower extremity
amputations in people with diabetes.

Poster title Geochemical evidence for 215 Ma extraterrestrial impact event on Earth
Poster abstract The period between the Upper Triassic and the Lower Jurassic (approximately 230-200
million years ago) is characterized by the formation of several large impact craters including the 100 km Manicouagan structure in Canada. It is well known that extraterrestrial impact that can create crater of this size
can drastically change the Earth’s surficial environment, sometimes leading to mass extinction event. Thus, a
detailed understanding of the size as well as the chemical composition of the projectiles is of particular importance. Chromium isotope, which has widely been used as a chronometer to determine the ages of the early
solar system objects, can be used as a powerful tool to reveal the geochemical nature of the extraterrestrial
materials that accreted to the Earth because meteorites of different classes are characterized by distinct 54Cr
isotopic signature. In this presentation, I will show the results of high-precision Cr isotopic analyses of the
Upper Triassic deep-sea sediments with anomalously high concentration of platinum group elements which
strongly suggest that extraterrestrial object of few km in size accreted to the Earth at 215 Ma (Onoue et al.
2012). References : Onoue T. et al. 2012. PNAS, 109:19134-19139.

Welcome to Moselle !
For several years now, the Moselle Department of France has developped strong links with Japan,

On the occasion of JFFOS 2014 symposium taking place in Metz, capital city of Moselle/Lorraine,
on the initiative of Moselle Development Agency, representatives of the lorraine scientific
