DESCRIPTION:In this talk I discuss  in elementary way the selection from g
 iven family\nof estimators and what is now called oracle approach (oracle\
 ninequalities).  Oracle inequalities\, when available\, are very informati
 ve\ntools for deriving minimax and minimax adaptive results.  One of the a
 ims\nof this talk is to show how\nto deduce quite different results from s
 ingle oracle inequality.  No\nspecial knowledge  is supposed in order to f
 ollow the presentation.\n
