I marginalia di Dino Buzzati: schemi, illustrazioni e disegni
2022
Secondo questa proposta di lettura dell'opera grafica di Dino Buzzati, che può essere estesa anche ad altri autori dal doppio talento, i disegni ai margini della scrittura possono essere interpretati allora nella loro funzione di relazione tra le arti che si risolve in una interazione, una negoziazione, uno slittamento oppure un conflitto, una cancellatura. Inoltre le annotazioni ai margini della scrittura, soprattutto nelle loro versioni grafiche, costituiscono una forma di introspezione autobiografica assai preziosa per ricostruire il profilo del loro autore, se scrittore e disegnatore al contempo.
Biovi : a research program for reducing chemical input in vine and wine
2022
Decrease of chemical inputs during vine management and winemaking is of great importance from a political and societal point of view. In our ongoing project we propose alternative tools to chemicals in the vineyard and the cellar. We have compared a conventional vineyard protection strategy to an alternative strategy using copper and biocontrol products (Biocontrol) against downy and powdery mildews. Both strategies were compared regarding sanitary quality, berries and/or must enological parameters, and physical, biochemical and biological characteristics (berry surface observation, proteomic, metabolomic, volatilomic, metagenomic analyses). Musts obtained with both strategies were then use…

Det er dermed formulert følgende problemstilling: «på hvilken måte kan sosiale boformer i kompakt byutvikling bidra til å redusere ensomhet og styrke livskvalitet blant studenter?». Studien gjennomføres som en kvalitativ studie, hvor semistrukturert intervju er benyttet. Utvalget består av …
I diritti dei passeggeri aerei in tempi di pandemia tra cancellazioni straordinarie, rimborsi negati e voucher imposti
2022
La pandemia da Covid-19 ha travolto il settore del trasporto aereo, costringendo molte compagnie a cancellare i voli in séguito ai provvedimenti restrittivi adottati dalle autorità o per altre cause connesse all’emergenza. I rimedi, di matrice europea, del rimborso del biglietto e del risarcimento del danno rischiano di esporre le compagnie a gravi crisi di liquidità e al rischio di fallimento. Lo scopo del presente contributo è ragionare sulla opportunità di prevedere voucher obbligatori sostitutivi del rimborso immediato, che il passeggero non potrebbe rifiutare a condizione che abbiano un contenuto ragionevole, in un’ottica complessiva di valorizzazione della concorrenza nel mercato del …
Fermion and gluon spectral functions far from equilibrium
2022
Motivated by the quark-gluon plasma, we develop a simulation method to obtain the spectral function of (Wilson) fermions non-perturbatively in a non-Abelian gauge theory with large gluon occupation numbers [arXiv:2106.11319]. We apply our method to a non-Abelian plasma close to its non-thermal fixed point, i.e., in a far-from-equilibrium self-similar regime, and find mostly very good agreement with perturbative hard loop (HTL) calculations. For the first time, we extract the full momentum dependence of the damping rate of fermionic collective excitations and compare our results to recent non-perturbative extractions of gluonic spectral functions in two and three spatial dimensions [arXiv:21…
The Dolia Defossa and viticulture at Vagnari
2022
At Vagnari, the fabric of the dolia defossa was distinctively different from that present in all the other ceramics from the site, as it was a distinctive orangey-red with black, glassy particles and reddish-brown grit fragments. The surviving lid fragment, on the other hand, is made of a fairly fine buff clay, suggesting it was made somewhere else. It is not unusual that dolia and lids might be made of different clays and in different workshops, as they are in Gallia Narbonensis, where some analysed lids were made in Rome, but the vessels were local. The recognition that it is important to conduct fabric analyses on dolia retrieved in archaeological excavations, whether on land or in the s…

Event-related brain potential markers of visual and auditory perception: A useful tool for brain computer interface systems.
2022
ObjectiveA majority of BCI systems, enabling communication with patients with locked-in syndrome, are based on electroencephalogram (EEG) frequency analysis (e.g., linked to motor imagery) or P300 detection. Only recently, the use of event-related brain potentials (ERPs) has received much attention, especially for face or music recognition, but neuro-engineering research into this new approach has not been carried out yet. The aim of this study was to provide a variety of reliable ERP markers of visual and auditory perception for the development of new and more complex mind-reading systems for reconstructing the mental content from brain activity.MethodsA total of 30 participants were shown…

Psychological Processes in the Social Interaction and Communication Anxiety of University Students : The Role of Self-Compassion and Psychological Fl…
2022
University students often experience difficulties in social interactions. The current study examined the role of self-compassion and psychological flexibility among university students (N= 76) reporting high levels of social interaction and communication anxiety. We observed that high social interaction (SIAS) and communication anxiety (PRCA-24) were associated with low levels of self-compassion and psychological flexibility. Upon further investigating the specific predictors for social interaction and communication anxiety, we found that self-judgment, over-identification and openness to experiences were the key components in self-compassion and psychological flexibility, respectively. How…

Services provided by soil microorganisms to improve plant phosphate nutrition
2022
Since the first Green Revolution, agricultural practices have been based on the massive use of synthetic fertilisers and plant protection products. Since then, global consumption of phosphate fertilisers has more than tripled, reaching 47 million tonnes in 2019. Current projections estimate that phosphate rock stocks (natural phosphorus resources for fertiliser production) could be depleted within the next century, leading us to change our agricultural practices. In soils, P is mainly present in complexed forms that are not easily accessible to plants. To reduce the use of phosphate fertilisers, it is necessary to make this complexed phosphate accessible to plants. This can be done by benef…

Development of internalizing symptoms during adolescence in three countries: the role of temperament and parenting behaviors
2022
AbstractThis longitudinal study examined the unique and joint effects of early adolescent temperament and parenting in predicting the development of adolescent internalizing symptoms in a cross-cultural sample. Participants were 544 early adolescents (T1: Mage = 12.58; 49.5% female) and their mothers (n = 530) from Medellín, Colombia (n = 88), Naples, Italy (n = 90), Rome, Italy (n = 100) and Durham, North Carolina, United States (African Americans n = 92, European Americans n = 97, and Latinx n = 77). Early adolescent negative emotionality (i.e., anger and sadness experience), self-regulation (i.e., effortful control), and parent monitoring and psychological control were measured at T1. Ad…
Community-based method for extracting backbones
2022
Networks are an adequate representation for modeling and analyzing a great variety of complex systems. However, understanding networks with millions of nodes and billions of connections can be pretty challenging due to memory and time constraints. Therefore, selecting the relevant nodes and edges of these large-scale networks while preserving their core information is a major issue. In most cases, the so-called backbone extraction methods are based either on coarse-graining or filtering approaches. Coarse-graining techniques reduce the network size by gathering similar nodes into super-nodes, while filter-based methods eliminate nodes or edges according to a statistical property. In this wo…

Il futuro del costituzionalismo (se il costituzionalismo ha un futuro)
2022
Il costituzionalismo è in crisi? Se con questa ci riferiamo soltanto a un discorso giuridico improntato al linguaggio dei diritti e a un certo assetto tra poteri che valorizza il potere giudiziario a discapito del legislativo e dell’esecutivo, allora non si può che rispondere negativamente. Se invece consideriamo parte integrante del costituzionalismo l’individualismo di matrice illuminista e la convinzione che esista uno zoccolo duro di valori morali universalmente condivisi sui quali edificare un futuro di pace e prosperità dell’umanità, allora è difficile negare la crisi del costituzionalismo. Is constitutionalism in crisis? If by ‘constitutionalism’ we only refer to a legal discourse gr…
Success in Equity Crowdfunding: A Quantitative Study of What Drives Equity Crowdfunding Campaign Success in Norway
2022
This Master’s thesis studies what drives success in Norwegian equity crowdfunding campaigns. Norway is an interesting context for studying equity-based crowdfunding because of limited access to venture capital for start-ups additionally to heavy reliance on state support. The recent boom in equity crowdfunding in Norway makes this study relevant. A linear regression analysis is based on 192 observations collected from the two existing equity crowdfunding platforms in Norway; Folkeinvest and Dealflow. The thesis highlights variables supplemented by the relevant literature within success factors in crowdfunding and presents 14 hypotheses. The most prominent results of the study is that a long…

Digitization and characterization of local reflectance of complex surfaces for visual inspection
2022
Mastering the visual perception of the surfaces of manufactured products is a central issue for industry. However, in industry, the quality of surfaces is often assessed by human inspectors. Only a few specific cases use an instrumental or photometric approach. Among the photometric approaches, one of them is experiencing significant growth: Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI). The RTI makes it possible to obtain a reduced and simplified estimate of the Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) and an estimate of the geometry of the surface. However, this technique has limitations in terms of data acquisition and processing. The objective is therefore to correct some of th…
Modelos de mundo y discursos literarios saboteadores en Guinea Ecuatorial: la construcción de una identidad decolonial y sus límites
2022
Esta investigación parte del interés por analizar la posición ideológica de la literatura escrita por mujeres guineoecuatorianas en la construcción de la identidad nacional decolonial. Guinea Ecuatorial se enfrenta desde su independencia de España en 1968, a una necesaria reconstrucción identitaria que fluctúa entre los legados del colonialismo pasado y la recuperación de sus culturas y valores precoloniales. En ambos casos, la mujer negra y sus discursos ocupan una posición subalterna, ya sea frente al patriarcado de la cultura colonial española o frente al nuevo nacionalismo patriarcal poscolonial. Desde esa posición de negatividad frente al modelo de mundo hegemónico, las voces de ellas …

Libanio e Antiochia. La dedizione di un intellettuale alla sua città
2022
This contribution aims at demonstrating how the life of public speaker Libanius was devoted in toto to his city, Antioch of Syria, both as the official sophist of the same city and as professor of numerous generations of students. Lover of traditional paideia and guardian of the classical tradition, Libanius brings back to life in the fullest way the model of the Attic orator, of which Demosthenes had been the highest expression. Combativeness, talent and patriotism therefore unite the Athenian orator and the Antiochene one, and exposed them to the envy of their colleagues and to the consequent accusations of magic, of such a topical character that these allegations weren’t taken into accou…
Robust RGB-D Fusion for Saliency Detection
2022
Efficiently exploiting multi-modal inputs for accurate RGB-D saliency detection is a topic of high interest. Most existing works leverage cross-modal interactions to fuse the two streams of RGB-D for intermediate features' enhancement. In this process, a practical aspect of the low quality of the available depths has not been fully considered yet. In this work, we aim for RGB-D saliency detection that is robust to the low-quality depths which primarily appear in two forms: inaccuracy due to noise and the misalignment to RGB. To this end, we propose a robust RGB-D fusion method that benefits from (1) layer-wise, and (2) trident spatial, attention mechanisms. On the one hand, layer-wise atten…

2022
Il lavoro svolto dai rider attraverso la piattaforma digitale continua ad interessare la giurisprudenza, la quale è incerta nel sussumerlo nella nozione di subordinazione o nelle collaborazioni organizzate dal committente ai sensi dell’art. 2 del d.lgs. n. 81/2015. Il contributo analizza la sentenza del Tribunale di Torino in cui la questione principale si intreccia con un’ipotesi di interposizione fittizia nei rapporti di lavoro. Si mette evidenza come l’operazione di qualificazione resta dubbia quando la gestione algoritmica assuma schemi organizzativi diversi da quello preso in esame dal giudice.
