Biogeographical patterns of soil molecular microbial biomass
2011
Affiche - résumé. Session GC: Microbes in the Changing Environmenl: Global Climate Change and Soif under Human Impact; International audience; The spatial organization of soil microbial communities over large areas and the identification of environmental factors structuring their distribution have been liUle investigated. The overall objective of this study was to determine the spatial paUerning of microbial biomass in soils on wide extent and to rank the environmental fiUers most influencing this distribution, by using the French Soil Quality Monitoring Network. This network covers ail the French terrilory and soils were sampled at2,150 sites along a systematic grid sampling. The soil DNA …
Induced resistance in grapevine: from concept to vineyard application

Recherche de récepteurs de l’immunité des plantes et étude de l’impact de biostimulants sur leur expression et la résistance induite chez des organes…

National audience; La stimulation des défenses immunitaires des plantes représente une stratégie durable deprotection des cultures qui pourrait permettre de réduire l’utilisation de pesticides chimiquesencore trop répandue en viticulture. Son principe réside en l’application, au contact des cellulesvégétales, de molécules élicitrices détectées comme des signaux de danger par la plante. Cessignaux de dangers peuvent être de différente nature et origine comme par exemple la chitine,un chito-oligosaccharide (COS) retrouvé dans les parois fongiques. Leur détection par desrécepteurs de l’immunité entraine une cascade de signalisation complexe, conduisant àl’activation de réactions de défense et …
Observations of land use transformations during the Neolithic using exploratory spatial data analysis: contributions and limitations
2010
International audience; The settlement pattern analysis in archaeology implies some methodological questions. In this paper, we question some issues about the use of geostatistical methods for the observation of land use transformations during the Neolithic. We have developed two examples in Burgundy (France): the first one on a regional scale and the second one on a micro-regional scale. Using different ESDA approaches (Ripley’K function, Nearest Neighbour Distance, Kernel Density Estimation), we would like to underline what the methodological and archaeological contributions and their limits are. Both experiences point out that the results obtained depend not only on the analytical scale,…
Formalization of scientific process and conceptual modelling for the study of territorial and products distribution dynamics (ArchaeDyn II programme)
2012
International audience; The ArchaeDyn team has investigated territorial dynamics by comparing areas over long time spans between the Neolithic and Modern times. Datasets on various themes have been shared and indicators and analytical models produced. This paper presents both the formalization of the scientific process used in the ArchaeDyn programme and a conceptual model of the systems and components so that synchronic and diachronic comparisons can be made. The aim is to clarify the transition from an archaeological feature (a site or an artefact) or a recording unit (survey area) as the input, to the characterization of spaces describing a system as the output. The approach is described…
SimFeodal: an agent-based model to explore the combined effects of social and demographic changes on the hierarchy of rural settlement patterns in No…
2019
International audience; In North-Western Europe, regional settlement patterns that were dispersed in 800 CE became much more concentrated and hierarchical in 1200 CE (Tannier et al. 2014). This phenomenon occurred in all regions but the resulting level of concentration and hierarchy of settlement patterns differed notably among the regions. Several processes jointly explain this major transition (Cura et al. 2017). •The dismantling of the Carolingian Empire and the dissipation of powers induced struggles among lords and thus a rise in violence. The result of this was the creation of castles as well as an increase of the need of protection for peasant households•The militarisation of the soc…
Multi-Scale Feature Extraction for Vehicle Detection Using Phis-Lbp
2018
International audience; Multi-resolutionobjectdetectionfacesseveraldrawbacksincludingitshighdimensionalityproducedby a richer image representation in different channels or scales. In this paper, we propose a robust and lightweight multi-resolution method for vehicle detection using local binary patterns (LBP) as channel feature. Algorithm acceleration is done using LBP histograms instead of multi-scale feature maps and by extrapolating nearby scales to avoid computing each scale. We produce a feature descriptor capable of reaching a similar precision to other computationally more complex algorithms but reducing its size from 10 to 800 times. Finally, experiments show that our method can obt…

Mapping routine measles vaccination in low- and middle-income countries
2021
The safe, highly effective measles vaccine has been recommended globally since 1974, yet in 2017 there were more than 17 million cases of measles and 83,400 deaths in children under 5 years old, and more than 99% of both occurred in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)1–4. Globally comparable, annual, local estimates of routine first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) coverage are critical for understanding geographically precise immunity patterns, progress towards the targets of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), and high-risk areas amid disruptions to vaccination programmes caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)5–8. Here we generated annual estimates of routine childhoo…
