Feasibility of Linear Parametric Estimation of Dynamic Information Measures to assess Physiological Stress from Short-Term Cardiovascular Variability
2021
Extensive efforts have been recently devoted to implement fast and reliable algorithms capable of assessing the physiological response of the organism to physiological stress. In this study, we propose the comparison between model-free and linear parametric methods as regards their ability to detect alterations in the dynamics and in the complexity of cardiovascular and respiratory variability evoked by postural and mental stress. Dynamic entropy (DE) and information storage (IS) measures were calculated on three physiological time-series, i.e. heart period, respiratory volume and systolic arterial pressure, on 61 healthy subjects monitored in resting conditions as well as during head-up ti…
Augļa ārējais apgrozījums – efektivitāte un tās ietekmējošie faktori, dzemdību iznākums un komplikācijas
2022
Ievads. Augļa iegurņa guļa ir otra biežākā augļa guļa. Vaginālu dzemdību gadījumā tā tiek saistīta ar biežāku komplikāciju attīstību. Šī iemesla dēļ ir palielinājusies plānveida Ķeizargrieziena izmantošana grūtniecības atrisināšanai līdz pat 85.1%. Tomēr tas nekorelē ar dzemdību iznākumiem. Augļa ārējais apgrozījums (AAA) ir manipulācija, kas tiek rekomendēta visām sievietēm ar vienaugļa grūtniecību, kur auglis atrodas iegurņa priekšguļā sākot no 36.grūtniecības nedēļas, ja nepastāv kontrindikācijas. Tā ir atzīta par drošu un efektīvu metodi ar vidējo veiksmīgo apgrozījuma rādītāju – 58%, kas paaugstina vaginālu dzemdību ar augļa galviņas priekšguļu incidenci. Darba mērķis. Noskaidrot AAA e…
Four-wave mixing and vacuum squeezing in polariton microcavities
2017
In a recent paper [1] it has been shown how a bichromatic fast driving of optomechanical (optical domain) and superconducting circuit systems (microwave domain), operating in a limit where they present a non-linear Kerr-type interaction, can give rise to very strong vacuum squeezing. The driving with two close frequencies of a Kerr cavity changes the usual bistability bifurcation behaviour that takes place under monochromatic driving, into a degenerate four-wave mixing bifurcation, where a phase-bistable component starts oscillating spontaneously at a frequency that lies halfway between the two driving frequencies [2]. This resembles the physics of the optical parametric oscillator threshol…
PCM Thermal Energy Storage in Buildings: Experimental Study and Applications
2015
Abstract The study aims at analyzing the performance of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in residential housing for different climates. This paper presents the results of an experiment performed in the Concordia University Solar Simulator and Environmental Chamber research facility (SSEC, Montreal, Canada). PCM boards were embedded on the back wall of a test hut placedin the climatic chamber. Several experiments were performed to explore the potential for verification of the proposed analysis and to produce enough data to perform model calibrations. Results show a strong increase in the apparent thermal inertia of the room allowing for a reduction in daily temperature fluctuations in the test …
Estimation of ordered response models with sample selection
2011
We introduce two new Stata commands for the estimation of an ordered response model with sample selection. The opsel command uses a standard maximum-likelihood approach to fit a parametric specification of the model where errors are assumed to follow a bivariate Gaussian distribution. The snpopsel command uses the semi-nonparametric approach of Gallant and Nychka (1987, Econometrica 55: 363–390) to fit a semiparametric specification of the model where the bivariate density function of the errors is approximated by a Hermite polynomial expansion. The snpopsel command extends the set of Stata routines for semi-nonparametric estimation of discrete response models. Compared to the other semi-n…
Modeling temporal treatment effects with zero inflated semi-parametric regression models: The case of local development policies in France
2017
International audience; A semi-parametric approach is proposed to estimate the variation along time of the effects of two distinct public policies that were devoted to boost rural development in France over a similar period of time. At a micro data level, it is often observed that the dependent variable, such as local employment, does not vary along time, so that we face a kind of zero inflated phenomenon that cannot be dealt with a continuous response model. We introduce a conditional mixture model which combines a mass at zero and a continuous response. The suggested zero inflated semi-parametric statistical approach relies on the flexibility and modularity of additive models with the abi…
Bayesian classification for dating archaeological sites via projectile points
2021
Dating is a key element for archaeologists. We propose a Bayesian approach to provide chronology to sites that have neither radiocarbon dating nor clear stratigraphy and whose only information comes from lithic arrowheads. This classifier is based on the Dirichlet-multinomial inferential process and posterior predictive distributions. The procedure is applied to predict the period of a set of undated sites located in the east of the Iberian Peninsula during the IVth and IIIrd millennium cal. BC.
Spatial Simultons in 2D Photonic Crystals of Nonlinear Origin
2007
We observed for the very first time quadratic spatial solitons (simultons) in a two dimensional photonic lattice defined by periodic sign inversion of its susceptibilty. This is the first demonstration of quadratic self-confinement in a 2D purely nonlinear photonic crystal.
One-Loop Two and Three-Point Functions
2015
In this chapter we present a few relevant calculations of one-loop, one and two-point (scalar, vector and tensor) functions. IR and UV divergences are extensively treated. One example of IR-pole cancellation is presented. The two and three-body phase space integrals in D dimensions, needed for the calculation of IR divergent cross sections are also given. Last, the usage of the generic parametrization ( 6.27) for non-integer powers of propagators (which appear when one needs to integrate over the four-momentum, logarithmic functions that depend on the four-momentum) is shown with a simple two-loop example. With the tools given here, the reader should find straightforward to construct any hi…

This chapter presents a state of the art of infrared supercontinuum generation in heavy oxide tellurite optical fibers from the experimental results published by the international community. As a first part, a bibliographic table gathers the literature on which this work is based. Then, the second part briefly returns on the tellurite glass compositions, the third part presents the different fiber structures (microstructured, suspended core or step-index fibers, tapered fibers), the fourth part discusses the pumping sources in relation with the fiber chromatic dispersion as well as coupling issues, the supercontinuum performances are presented in the fifth part, and the sixth part deals wit…
