Sommario/riassunto

Aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles, l’île de Malte, propriété de l’Espagne et confiée en 1530 à l’ordre militaro-religieux des Hospitaliers de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem, devient un lieu privilégié d’affrontements entre les rives chrétienne et musulmane de la Méditerranée. Après des épisodes militaires marquants (la razzia de 1551 et surtout le « Grand Siège » de 1565) ainsi que des fortifications intensives (notamment la construction de La Valette, cité utopique réputée imprenable), l’île incarne à la fin du XVIe siècle la frontière par excellence de la chrétienté face à l’Islam. Au siècle suivant, son épanouissement en tant qu’île-frontière est symbolisé par l’essor de la guerre de course, qui maintient l’affrontement avec les « Infidèles » tout en favorisant l’émergence, puis le développement de contacts commerciaux avec la rive ennemie pour l’écoulement des butins et des esclaves. Le développement multiforme des contacts humains et marchands est alors en permanence contrôlé



et régulé par les autorités politiques et religieuses (l’Ordre, le Saint-Office, le clergé insulaire), soucieuses de maintenir intact le sentiment d’un contraste entre les civilisations que semblent effacer les associations commerciales qui transcendent les appartenances nationales ou confessionnelles. Ce singulier équilibre entre ouverture économique et clôture religieuse et mentale contribue alors à façonner une société originale, qui apparaît porteuse de la dualité inhérente aux frontières, c’est-à-dire à la fois ouverte, cosmopolite, et profondément hostile à toute différence religieuse.

Sommario/riassunto

This book reviews the state-of-the-art efforts to apply machine learning and AI methods for healthy aging and longevity research, diagnosis, and therapy development. The book examines the methods of machine learning and their application in the analysis of big medical data, medical images, the creation of algorithms for assessing biological age, and effectiveness of geroprotective medications. The promises and challenges of using AI to help achieve healthy longevity for the population are manifold. This volume, written by world-leading experts working at the intersection of AI and aging, provides a unique synergy of these two highly prominent fields and aims to create a balanced and comprehensive overview of the application methodology that can help achieve healthy longevity for the population. The book is accessible and valuable for specialists in AI and longevity research, as well as a wide readership, including gerontologists, geriatricians, medical specialists, andstudents from diverse fields, basic scientists, public and private research entities, and policy makers interested in potential intervention in degenerative aging processes using advanced computational tools. .
