A Java 3D Talking Head for a Chatbot
2008
Facial animation is referred to all those systems per- forming the speech synchronization with an animated face model. This kind of systems are called ”Talking Head” or ”Talking Face”. In this paper a Talking Head oriented to the creation of a Chatbot is presented. It requires an in- put query and an answer is generated in form of text. The answer is transduced into a facial animation using a 3D face model whose lips movements are synchronized with the sound produced by a speech synthesis module. Our ”Talk- ing Head” explores the naturalness of the facial animation and provides a real-time interactive interface to the user. The WEB infrastructure has been realized using the Client- Server m…
Corti e lunghi circuiti politici. Il caso Nunzio Nasi
2017
This work aims to read the practices of modern politics in the conflict between the center and the periphery. The emergence of moments of conflict between the local political level and the national level allows us to observe the way of acting, the choices, the actions, the languages of the actors who move along these two dimensions. We will try to show that local situations are not exceptions to a general and abstract, universally valid and accepted norm, but more likely it is exceptional and should be considered only as an emergent effect of the irreducible multiplicity of local contexts.
Interactive multiobjective optimization system WWW-NIMBUS on the Internet
2000
Abstract NIMBUS is a multiobjective optimization method capable of solving nondifferentiable and nonconvex problems. We describe the NIMBUS algorithm and its implementation WWW-NIMBUS. To our knowledge WWW-NIMBUS is the first interactive multiobjective optimization system on the Internet. The main principles of its implementation are centralized computing and a distributed interface. Typically, the delivery and update of any software is problematic. Limited computer capacity may also be a problem. Via the Internet, there is only one version of the software to be updated and any client computer has the capabilities of a server computer. Further, the World-Wide Web (WWW) provides a graphical …
Efectos de la crisis en el crédito comercial concedido y relevancia de la diversificación de la actividad
2014
ResumenEl objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar las razones por las que las empresas manufactureras españolas conceden crédito comercial a sus clientes. Hemos analizado teórica y empíricamente 2 aspectos: el efecto producido por la crisis financiero-económica y la importancia que tiene la diversificación de la actividad y el tipo de cliente al que se le concede el crédito comercial. Las principales conclusiones que obtenemos son, por una parte, que el incremento del crédito comercial concedido en periodo de crisis provoca que las empresas sean menos competitivas, y en segundo lugar aportamos evidencia de que la diversificación de la actividad y el hecho de que los clientes sean más o menos h…
Psychometric properties of the interaction on supervised classes scale (ISCS)
2016
Objeto: La presente investigación se centra en la construcción y validación de una escala diseñada para evaluar la calidad de la clases dirigidas: Escala de Interacción en las Clases Dirigidas (EICD). Diseño/metodología/enfoque: Se trata de un estudio descriptivo correlacional. Para la elaboración de la escala se recurrió a tres fases diferenciadas en las que diferentes expertos evaluaron la adecuación de los ítems, finalmente se estudiaron las propiedades psicométricas de la versión final en una muestra de 314 socios (69.1% mujeres) con edades entre los 18 y los 77 con una media de 39.33 años (DT=12.25). Aportaciones y resultados: La escala presenta una validez y fiabilidad adecuadas, sien…
Effect of partner–agent model practice on microinsurance client value: Insight from microfinance institutions in Tanzania
2018
In absence of formal microinsurance to protect low-income people against natural and man-made disasters, the partnership between insurance companies and microfinance institutions (MFIs), also known as the Partner–Agent Model (PAM), is gaining global recognition from governments, practitioners, and donors for its potential role to deliver microinsurance. Although the model is still nascent in Tanzania, it has significantly increased microinsurance outreach. However, while the microinsurance landscape has been extensively studied, the effect of PAM practice on mandatory microinsurance client value has not received much attention. Therefore, this study examines how the PAM practice affects mic…
Orientación al mercado y desempeño organizativo en los clústeres de servicios de salud
2017
Adam y Savigny (2012) plantean que la salud y otros sistemas sociales han sido descritos como sistemas adaptativos complejos, que se ajustan de manera dinámica, y a veces impredecibles, a los cambios dentro del propio sistema o en el contexto en el que operan. Esto ha llevado a que el sector de la salud, en su dinámica de crecimiento y búsqueda de competitividad, siga la tendencia que ha sido marcada desde un principio por las empresas de fabricación de bienes, buscando organizarse en concentraciones geográficas o clústeres. Son muy pocos los trabajos que se han elaborado con relación a los clústeres de servicios, pues en la investigación ha dominado el interés la industria manufacturera (K…
Simple methods for enhancing patient outcome in routine care: Measuring, monitoring, and feedback
2014
While highly effective, psychotherapy outcome studies suggest 5?14% of clients worsen while in treatment and that therapists are unable to identify a substantial portion of such cases. Methods to systematically track client mental health functioning over the course of treatment and adjust treatment through the use of problem-solving tools are described. We summarize meta-analyses of the effects of a feedback system indicating that the number of psychotherapy patients who deteriorate can be cut in half. We conclude with a series of practice implications, including that clinicians seriously consider making formal methods of collecting client feedback a routine part of their daily practice.
PATRONAGE E CLIENTELISMO: UNA RILETTURA
2015
Nel lessico colloquiale il termine patronage – tradotto in italiano esclusivamente, e spesso equivocamente, come “padronato” o “padronaggio”, cioè come potere di disposizione fondato sull’asimmetrico “dominio patrimoniale” esercitato da qualcuno su qualcun’altro o sulla possibilità di esercitare la “protezione” di qualcuno da parte di qualcun altro – assume in realtà molti significati, spesso in funzione dell’orientamento valoriale che se ne vuole attribuire. Così, può significare appoggio, protezione o favore; ma anche, nella forma declinatasi nel rinascimento italiano, “mecenatismo”; o, ancora, e in senso dispregiativo, favoritismo, che rinvia ad un sistema di clientelismo basato, ad esem…
