La voie des idées, de Descartes à Hume
2015
International audience; Lorsque Descartes fait de la connaissance de l'esprit humain la principale tâche de la philosophie, il lui applique l'idée moderne de la science comme connaissance certaine et évidente. Durant les 150 ans qui suivront, aucun penseur ne reniera cette étincelle cartésienne. Dans son sillage mais aussi contre elle, dans le ciel de la philosophie apparaît une constellation de penseurs de premier ordre : Pascal, Hobbes, Spinoza, Malebranche, Leibniz, Locke, Berkeley, Hume. La recherche philosophique accompagnant la "révolution scientifique" commencée avec Galilée s'engage alors dans "la voie des idées". C'est donc sur cette voie que Pierre Guenancia nous entraîne, soulign…
Valores personales en el baloncesto de formación y su relación con el bienestar y la intención futura de práctica a través de la motivación
2019
Tomando como marco teórico la teoría de los valores humanos (Schwartz, 1992; Schwartz et al., 2012), y la teoría de la autodeterminación (Deci y Ryan, 1985, 2000), el objetivo del estudio consistió en poner a prueba un modelo, en una muestra de 115 jugadores jóvenes de baloncesto ( M edad = 13.98, DT = 0.13), en el que se hipotetizó que los diferentes tipos de motivación (motivación autónoma, controlada y no motivación) actuarían como mediadores de la relación entre los va lores informados por los jugadores (auto - trascendencia, conservación, auto - promoción y apertura al cambio) y los indicadores de bienestar (vitalidad subjetiva y afectos positivos), así como con la intención futura de …

FASTA/Q data compressors for MapReduce-Hadoop genomics: space and time savings made easy
2021
Abstract Background Storage of genomic data is a major cost for the Life Sciences, effectively addressed via specialized data compression methods. For the same reasons of abundance in data production, the use of Big Data technologies is seen as the future for genomic data storage and processing, with MapReduce-Hadoop as leaders. Somewhat surprisingly, none of the specialized FASTA/Q compressors is available within Hadoop. Indeed, their deployment there is not exactly immediate. Such a State of the Art is problematic. Results We provide major advances in two different directions. Methodologically, we propose two general methods, with the corresponding software, that make very easy to deploy …
Mass measurements beyond the major r-process waiting point $^{80}$Zn
2008
High-precision mass measurements on neutron-rich zinc isotopes 71m,72-81Zn have been performed with the Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP. For the first time the mass of 81Zn has been experimentally determined. This makes 80Zn the first of the few major waiting points along the path of the astrophysical rapid neutron capture process where neutron separation energy and neutron capture Q-value are determined experimentally. As a consequence, the astrophysical conditions required for this waiting point and its associated abundance signatures to occur in r-process models can now be mapped precisely. The measurements also confirm the robustness of the N = 50 shell closure for Z = 30 farthe…
Radiomics and Prostate MRI: Current Role and Future Applications
2021
Multiparametric prostate magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is widely used as a triage test for men at a risk of prostate cancer. However, the traditional role of mpMRI was confined to prostate cancer staging. Radiomics is the quantitative extraction and analysis of minable data from medical images; it is emerging as a promising tool to detect and categorize prostate lesions. In this paper we review the role of radiomics applied to prostate mpMRI in detection and localization of prostate cancer, prediction of Gleason score and PI-RADS classification, prediction of extracapsular extension and of biochemical recurrence. We also provide a future perspective of artificial intelligence (machine …
Genetic relationships between sympatric and allopatric Coregonus ciscoes in North and Central Europe
2021
Abstract Background Sympatric speciation along ecological gradients has been studied repeatedly, in particular in freshwater fishes. Rapid post-glacial ecological divergence has resulted in numerous endemic species or ecologically distinct populations in lakes of the temperate zones. Here, we focus on the Baltic cisco (Coregonus albula) complex, to study the genetic similarity among two pairs of sympatric autumn- and spring-spawning populations from post-glacial German Lakes Stechlin and Breiter Luzin. For comparison, we included a similar pair of sympatric populations from the Swedish Lake Fegen. We wanted to explore potential genetic similarities between the three sympatric cisco populati…
Aportaciones al conocimiento de la biología de Pinna nobilis Linneo, 1758 (Mollusca: Bivalvia) en el litoral mediterráneo ibérico
2005
RESUMEN El molusco bivalvo Pinna nobilis, perteneciente al orden Pterioida, es una especie endémica del Mar Mediterráneo, que suele habitar en las praderas de fanerógamas marinas, donde vive semienterrado, anclado mediante los filamentos del biso. Se trata del molusco más grande del Mediterráneo, ya que puede superar los 80 cm de longitud. El deterioro generalizado de las zonas costeras ha afectado también a esta especie, que ha sido incluida en el Anexo II de la directiva de hábitats, el Anexo IV del Convenio de Barcelona y el Anexo II del Catálogo Nacional de Especies Amenazadas. El presente proyecto de Tesis supone una nueva aportación sobre las características de las poblaciones de esta…
A motif-independent metric for DNA sequence specificity
2011
Abstract Background Genome-wide mapping of protein-DNA interactions has been widely used to investigate biological functions of the genome. An important question is to what extent such interactions are regulated at the DNA sequence level. However, current investigation is hampered by the lack of computational methods for systematic evaluating sequence specificity. Results We present a simple, unbiased quantitative measure for DNA sequence specificity called the Motif Independent Measure (MIM). By analyzing both simulated and real experimental data, we found that the MIM measure can be used to detect sequence specificity independent of presence of transcription factor (TF) binding motifs. We…
On the use of Denoising Autoencoders and Deep Convolutional Adversarial Networks for Automated Removal of Date Stamps
2019
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2019 This thesis investigates to what extent the deep learning models such as DenoisingAutoencoder (DAE) and Deep Convolution General Adversarial Net (DCGAN)automate the removal of the date stamps from images with high resolution whilepreserving the rest of the images. Both DAE and DCGAN algorithms are im-plemented with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). The DAE algorithm canperform this task with entirely satisfactory results. The DAE can reconstruct theoriginal images from corrupted inputs with date stamps. While DCGAN deliverspoor yet interesting results. The images generated by the DCGAN are quite d…
