Maschilità "sacrificate", maschilità "esibite" e maschilità "revansciste" nel sex work di strada
2022
Il presente articolo, approfondendo dei dati etnografici sul sex work maschile di strada raccolti dall'autore tra il 2011 e il 2018, intende evidenziare i significati attribuiti allo scambio sessuo-economico e delineare le relazioni gerarchiche che si definiscono per via della costruzione egemonica di genere e sessuale ma anche, inevitabilmente, per la corresponsione di una paga a seguito di una prestazione con l'obiettivo di identificare le modalità attraverso le quali si costruiscono modelli di maschilità situazionali e negoziate. L'analisi prova che la reputazione maschile deve essere costantemente preservata e dal momento che determina una sorta di rendita da posizionamento, essa è cost…
Male Sex Working and Masculinity: Finding ‘Check and Balance’ Between Stigmatisation and Homosexualisation
2021
Abstract in conference proceedings
SEX WORK IS (ALSO) A MALE THING. The long journey towards legitimisation
2022
This chapter aims at re- shaping the representations, theories, rhetoric, organisation, and types of male sex work as a complex, uncomfortable, and controversial phenomenon located at the crossroads of masculinity and socio- sexual change – something in between traditional models, new configurations, and new normativities.
Bayesian semiparametric long memory models for discretized event data
2020
We introduce a new class of semiparametric latent variable models for long memory discretized event data. The proposed methodology is motivated by a study of bird vocalizations in the Amazon rain forest; the timings of vocalizations exhibit self-similarity and long range dependence. This rules out Poisson process based models where the rate function itself is not long range dependent. The proposed class of FRActional Probit (FRAP) models is based on thresholding, a latent process. This latent process is modeled by a smooth Gaussian process and a fractional Brownian motion by assuming an additive structure. We develop a Bayesian approach to inference using Markov chain Monte Carlo and show g…
Toolbox for Distance Estimation and Cluster Validation on Data With Missing Values
2022
Missing data are unavoidable in the real-world application of unsupervised machine learning, and their nonoptimal processing may decrease the quality of data-driven models. Imputation is a common remedy for missing values, but directly estimating expected distances have also emerged. Because treatment of missing values is rarely considered in clustering related tasks and distance metrics have a central role both in clustering and cluster validation, we developed a new toolbox that provides a wide range of algorithms for data preprocessing, distance estimation, clustering, and cluster validation in the presence of missing values. All these are core elements in any comprehensive cluster analy…
Detailed modeling of the kraft pulping chemistry : carbohydrate reactions
2020
The article introduces a detailed model for carbohydrate chemistry in kraft pulping. This article is continuation to the modeling work carried out for hot water extraction and chemical pulp bleaching. The model includes galactoglucomannan, xylan, and cellulose acid–base equilibria, in addition to peeling, stopping, and alkaline hydrolysis reactions of the same carbohydrates, as well as hexenuronic acid formation and degradation reactions. The Arrhenius parameters were applied from the literature or regressed against experimental data in the present study. The model is very successful in predicting the experimental data of carbohydrate reactions during kraft pulping. Many features of the pul…
Liiketoimintaprosessien hallinta - hyödyt ja haasteet
2009
Kemppainen, Virpi Liiketoimintaprosessien hallinta (BPM) hyödyt ja haasteet / Virpi Kemppainen Jyväskylä, Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2009, 28 s. Kandidaatintutkielma Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on luoda kokonaiskuva liiketoimintaprosessin hallinnasta (BPM). Liiketoimintaprosessien hallinnalla tarkoitetaan mallia, jossa liiketoiminnan hyötyjä pyritään kasvattamaan tutkimalla ja analysoimalla prosesseja iteroinnin kautta, kunnes saavutetaan haluttu lopputulos. BPM:n käytön keskeisenä tarkoituksena on taata organisaation eri sidosryhmien osallistuminen liiketoiminnan parantamiseen sekä yhteisen kielen löytäminen näiden sidosryhmien välille. Tämä tutkielma on tyyliltään kuvaileva kirjallisuustut…
Motivic Pattern Extraction in Music, and Application to the Study of Tunisian Modal Music
2007
A new methodology for automated extraction of repeated patterns in time-series data is presented, aimed in particular at the analysis of musical sequences. The basic principles consists in a search for closed patterns in a multi-dimensional parametric space. It is shown that this basic mechanism needs to be articulated with a periodic pattern discovery system, implying therefore a strict chronological scanning of the time-series data. Thanks to this modelling global pattern filtering may be avoided and rich and highly pertinent results can be obtained. The modelling has been integrated in a collaborative pro ject between ethnomusicology, cognitive sciences and computer science, aimed at the…
L'ordinateur, outil de productivité de l'enseignant quelle formation initiale en IUFM ?
1992
Les nouvelles technologies de l'information et de la communication – audiovisuel, informatique et télématique – ont connu depuis trente ans en France de grandes actions de mise en oeuvre dans l'enseignement : radio-télévision scolaire, Jeune Téléspectateur Actif, expérimentation « 58 lycées », plan « 10 000 micros », expérimentation « 84 collèges », plan « 100 000 micros », plan IPT, opération « vidéo collège »...Les avancées technologiques de ces dernières années ont favorisé l'évolution des pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants. On est passé progressivement de pratiques indépendantes et isolées de l'informatique, de la télématique et de l'audio visuel à une utilisation combinée qui conce…
Izsole kā piedziņas līdzeklis izpildu procesā.
2017
Ņemot vērā, ka parādnieka mantas piespiedu pārdošana publiskā izsolē ir viens no izplatītākajiem kreditoru prasījumu segšanas veidiem piedziņas procesos, svarīgi identificēt tiesu izpildītāju praksē pastāvošās problēmas attiecībā uz tiesas nolēmumu izpildi. Šī bakalaura darba mērķis ir normatīvo aktu nepilnību un prakses problēmu izpēte un ieteikumu sniegšana tiesiskā regulējuma pilnveidošanai. Pētījumā izmantotas gan Latvijas, gan ārvalstu tiesību normas, tiesu prakse un doktrīna. Darba izstrādes laikā secināts, ka veiktie grozījumi tiesību normās ir pozitīvi ietekmējuši tiesu izpildītāju veikto darbu, taču, pastāvot likuma nepilnībām, atsevišķos gadījumos ir nepieciešami jauni tiesiskā re…
