Stabilized branch-and-price algorithms for vector packing problems

2018

Abstract This paper considers packing and cutting problems in which a packing/cutting pattern is constrained independently in two or more dimensions. Examples are restrictions with respect to weight, length, and value. We present branch-and-price algorithms to solve these vector packing problems (VPPs) exactly. The underlying column-generation procedure uses an extended master program that is stabilized by (deep) dual-optimal inequalities. While some inequalities are added to the master program right from the beginning (static version), other violated dual-optimal inequalities are added dynamically. The column-generation subproblem is a multidimensional knapsack problem, either binary, boun…

Analyzing Cascading Effects in Interdependent Critical Infrastructures

2018

International audience; Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are resources that are essential for the performance of society, including its economy and its security. Large-scale disasters, whether natural or man-made, can have devastating primary (direct) effects on some CI and significant indirect effects (cascading effects) on other CIs, because CIs are interconnected and depend on each other’s services. Recent work by Laugé et al. expressed the dependency values among CIs as dependency matrices for various durations of the primary CI failure. For better preparedness and mitigation of CI failures knowledge of the weak points in CI interdependencies is crucial. To this effect, we have developed …

Connecting theories of cascading disasters and disaster diplomacy

2018

Abstract Disaster diplomacy examines how and why disaster-related activities (disaster risk reduction and post-disaster actions) do and do not influence peace and conflict processes, especially whether or not a causal chain can be established between dealing with disaster risk or a disaster and outcomes in peace or conflict. Cascading disasters might provide a useful theoretical framing for mapping out causal pathways for disaster diplomacy. In conceptually exploring the intersection between disaster diplomacy and cascading disasters, this paper concludes that both disaster diplomacy and cascading disasters have limitations because they try to develop focused causal chains which, when exami…

Automated Dental Identification with Lowest Cost Path-Based Teeth and Jaw Separation

2016

Abstract Teeth are some of the most resilient tissues of the human body. Because of their placement, teeth often yield intact indicators even when other metrics, such as finger prints and DNA, are missing. Forensics on dental identification is now mostly manual work which is time and resource intensive. Systems for automated human identification from dental X-ray images have the potential to greatly reduce the necessary efforts spent on dental identification, but it requires a system with high stability and accuracy so that the results can be trusted. This paper proposes a new system for automated dental X-ray identification. The scheme extracts tooth and dental work contours from the X-ray…

CO-74: Altérations majeures du sphingophospholipidome des lipoprotéines de haute densité (HDL) de patients avec syndrome métabolique et glycémie norm…

2016

Rationnel Les phospholipides et sphingolipides jouent un role primordial dans la fonctionnalite et le role anti-atherogene des HDL. Ces proprietes sont alterees chez les patients porteurs d'un syndrome metabolique avant meme l'apparition d'une hyperglycemie. Nous avons donc recherche si les HDL de ces patients presentaient des anomalies de leur sphingophospholipidome. Patients et Methodes Par chromatographie liquide couplee a la spectrometrie de masse en tandem, nous avons quantifie 80 especes moleculaires des principales classes de phospholipides et sphingolipides des HDL2 et HDL3, chez 26 patients avec un syndrome metabolique et une glycemie a jeun nor-male (14 hommes, 12 femmes, âge moye…

Automatic Location of Sources of Electrical Activation from Electroanatomical Maps

2016

Electro-anatomical mapping is a widely used technique used by electrophysiologists to understand patient's activation pattern. The system measures activation time at different locations but does not provide information on underlying electrical pathways or triggering points, such as Purkinje-myocardial junctions or ectopic foci. We present a method to estimate the locations of Purkinje-myocardial junctions from a discrete set of endocardial samples. Using less than 1000 endocardial samples it can recover locations and activation times of the most influencing Purkinje myocardial junctions from Purkinje trees of up to 500 junctions. A simulation study revealed that using the estimated Purkinje…

Étude de prévalence de l’endométriose à la Réunion et en métropole à partir du PMSI

2015

Introduction Objectif principal : determiner la prevalence des hospitalisations pour endometriose a la Reunion et en metropole. Objectif secondaire : apprecier l’evolution des soins chirurgicaux pour cette pathologie dans l’ile comparee a la metropole. L’endometriose est une maladie de la femme reglee. Les principaux modes de decouverte sont la douleur et l’infertilite. Le diagnostic de certitude repose sur la cœlioscopie et donc sur une hospitalisation. Methodes Du 1/01/2008 au 31/12/2012, a partir du PMSI national, nous avons releve les codes de diagnostic principal concernant l’endometriose (N800 a N809). Dans cette population, nous avons consulte les actes realises et ceux qui concernai…

Incidence de l’endophtalmie aiguë postopératoire après chirurgie de la cataracte par phacoémulsification et injection intracamérulaire d’antibiotique…

2016

National audience; Introduction La chirurgie de la cataracte est l’intervention la plus fréquente dans le monde. Parmi ses complications, l’endophtalmie aiguë postopératoire (EAPO) est une infection intraoculaire sévère, qui peut conduire à la cécité. Les objectifs étaient de déterminer l’incidence de l’EAPO après chirurgie de la cataracte par phacoémulsification en France de 2005 à 2014 et d’analyser l’association entre injection intracamérulaire d’antibiotique (IICA) et EAPO. Méthodes Tous les patients hospitalisés pour une chirurgie de la cataracte en France entre le 1er janvier 2005 et le 31 décembre 2014 ont été identifiés dans le programme de médicalisation des systèmes d’information …
