Survey sampling for functionnal data : building asymptotic confidence bands and considering auxiliary information
2011
When collections of functional data are too large to be exhaustively observed, survey sampling techniques provide an effective way to estimate global quantities such as the population mean function, without being obligated to store all the data. In this thesis, we propose a Horvitz–Thompson estimator of the mean trajectory, and with additional assumptions on the sampling design, we state a functional Central Limit Theorem and deduce asymptotic confidence bands. For a fixed sample size, we show that stratified sampling can greatly improve the estimation compared to simple random sampling. In addition, we extend Neyman’s rule of optimal allocation to the functional context. Taking into accoun…

On-Road Study of Fatigue Management Strategies in Long-Haul Truck Drivers
2014
The current study investigated what strategies long-haul truck drivers use to mitigate fatigue at the wheel. A group of 52 truck drivers participated in the study in which drivers’ fatigue at the wheel was measured by a well-validated self-rating scale (the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale) and the use of fatigue countermeasures by a diary for a period of two consecutive workweeks including day and night-time trips. Results showed that the drivers more frequently used fatigue countermeasures while fatigued at the wheel but most of these countermeasures, with the exception of caffeine, can be regarded as inefficient (e.g., opening a window). The results indicate that long-haul truck drivers resp…
Aplicació de la crítica immanent als mitjans en línia i a les crisis socials a Myanmar: una anàlisi del discurs de la representació de la minoria Roh…
2022
Aquesta investigació té com a objectiu comprendre la representació del grup minoritari rohingya i les crisis de refugiats i desplaçament associades en els mitjans de comunicació en línia amb el Regne Unit. La investigació utilitza una metodologia d'Anàlisi del Discurs Assistit per Corpus i l'interpreta des de la perspectiva de la crítica immanent. Es demostra que existeix una contradicció entre la representació de tals crisis i els objectius generals que la societat globalitzada moderna pretén aconseguir. Això presenta una possible contradicció en les estructures subjacents de la societat i l'espai públic, la qual cosa justifica una investigació continua per a comprendre completament tals p…

EMOlab (Laboratorio de Educación Musical por Ordenador)
2010
EMOLab es un Laboratorio de Educación Musical por ordenador, donde se integrarán de forma modular diferentes programas para la educación musical en principiantes, que sirvan a un doble objetivo: ayudar a la formación musical de los futuros graduados de magisterio y proporcionar unos medios de acercamiento didáctico y de autoaprendizaje a la educación musical de los niños de primaria. Sin la pretensión de cubrir absolutamente el currículo de educación musical, los programas abarcan, al menos, los elementos esenciales de la música, apareciendo en consecuencia: -Programas de apoyo rítmico -Programas de apoyo melódico Estos programas de ámbito rítmico y melódico obedecen a un ordenamiento siste…
La lotta alla disoccupazione e alla povertà nell’esperienza della Società Umanitaria di Milano (1893-1915)
2018
This paper focuses on the crucial role played by the Humanitarian Society of Milan in combating poverty and unemployment, mainly in the transition from a traditional concept of assistance, which was private and confessional, to a more modern idea of public assistance, inspired by secular, liberal and socialist reformism.
Syllabic composition and use frequency: how do they affect stress assignment? A comparison between slow readers and fluent readers
2013
Italian words can be stressed either on penultimate or antepenultimate syllables. In both cases, stress assignment is not predictable by rules, but requires a lexical check. Italian words with stress on the penultimate syllable are defined as regular because the proportion of these words is much larger than words with stress on the antepenultimate syllable, defined as irregular. We propose to investigate the influence (in terms of correct stress positioning) of different syllabic and stress structures during "decoding” by both slow readers and fluent readers. Forty-eight children, twenty-four slow and twenty-four fluent readers, decoded “target words” selected on the basis of frequency (hig…
A Semiotic Approach to the Design of Non-speech Sounds
2006
In the field of auditory display there is currently a lack of theoretical support for the design of non-speech sounds as elements of a user interface. Sound design methods are often based on ad hoc choices or the personal preferences of the designer. A method is proposed in this paper based on a semiotic approach to the design of non-speech sounds. In this approach, the design process is conceptualised by referring to structural semiotics, acknowledging the unique qualities of non-speech sounds, as a mode of conveying information. This method is based on a rich use scenario presented to a design panel. A case study where the design method has been applied is presented and evaluated. Finally…
EQUINE ASSISTED LEARNING: SYMBOLIC VALUE OF HORSE AS UNDERLYING PATTERN IN HUMAN THINKING
2018
Traditional pedagogy do not stressed the unique and challenging needs of the adult learner for a different kind of educational experience that was more engaging, more flexible and more appreciative of the existing knowledge base and experience of the adult learning. Equine Assisted Learning is a practice in which adults engage in systematic and sustained self–educating activities in order to gain new forms of knowledge, skills, attitudes, or values. The purpose of this research is to illustrate the meaning and symbolic value of horse as underlying pattern in human thinking.
