Recursion at the crossroads of sequence modeling, random trees, stochastic algorithms and martingales
2013
This monograph synthesizes several studies spanning from dynamical systems in the statistical analysis of sequences, to analysis of algorithms in random trees and discrete stochastic processes. These works find applications in various fields ranging from biological sequences to linear regression models, branching processes, through functional statistics and estimates of risk indicators for insurances. All the established results use, in one way or another, the recursive property of the structure under study, by highlighting invariants such as martingales, which are at the heart of this monograph, as tools as well as objects of study.

A Comparative Analysis of Piotr Borkowski's (1963) and Roman Gajda's (1970) English–Polish Phraseological Dictionaries: Practice vs. Theory
2022
This paper offers an insight into the short and largely unexplored history of English–Polish and Polish–English phraseological lexicography. It aims to analyse two post-war English–Polish phraseological dictionaries, An English–Polish Dictionary of Idioms and Phrases (1963) by Piotr Borkowski and Wybór idiomów angielskich [A Selection of English Idioms] (1970) by Roman Gajda, from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. At first sight, they seem to share several features, insofar as both are monoscopal English–Polish volumes of a similar size; both were addressed to Polish learners of English; and both drew on The Kosciuszko Foundation Dictionary: English–Polish (1959), an exhaustive re…

L’image de la musique italienne dans le «Dictionnaire de musique» de Jean-Jacques Rousseau
2013
La presenza della musica italiana nel Dictionnaire de musique di Rousseau viene considerata in questo articolo 1) per l’uso della terminologia musicale in lingua italiana; 2) all’interno di caratteristiche “nazionali” che l’oppongono specialmente a quella francese; 3) per il suo ruolo storico tra degrado e rinascita 3) per le qualità estetiche e il senso filosofico ch’essa assume nel pensiero dell’ultimo Rousseau.
Mussels behavior as a tool to measure hydrological stressors
2021
Freshwater mussels are considered suitable bioindicators and used in real-time remote monitoring systems to detecting disturbances on ecosystems. One of the most successful methods is the valvometric technique that exploits the Hall sensor to measure the valve gaping behavior of mussels. The duration and frequency of valve opening amplitude and closure can therefore be recorded. These technologies have been used in the past to detect pollutants in the water, whereas studies that address the impact of hydromorphological pressures are still lacking. The main aim of the present study is to assess the influence of flow with sediment transport as well, both in steady and in unsteady (transient) …
Leksykograf u podnóża rockowej wieży Babel: muzyka popularna a słowniki nazw własnych
2021
This article focuses on the place that proper names originating from rock, or popular music in general, take or could take in dictionaries of proper names. It starts with an overview of onomástica published thus far, revealing a limited interest of Polish researchers in proper nouns related to this form of artistic activity. This discovery prompted the author to share his suggestions regarding such an onomasticon, or even onomástica, where names from popular music and specific categories would take a central place. Conditions are proposed which such a dictionary can or must meet based on the categories used in lexicography such as macro-, micro-, media- and megastructure. The final section …

What is immersive journalism?
2020
Immersive technologies are opening gateways to virtual realities that might change journalism forever. In the virtual world, journalism balances on the edge between imaginary approaches to fact-based creation and extended options for fakes. The journalistic maneuverings between reality and virtual reality are particularly intriguing to work with because they put the truth-seeking values of journalism into play. How can immersive technologies be applied to improve meaningful reporting and investigate storytelling in journalism? How can skills and knowledge of virtual reality empower news professionals? And how can journalism codes of ethics help shape the new platforms, shape a future in whi…
"Janie do Cię wracamy w czarnoleskie lipy". Polskie tradycje źródłowe w odmianach literacko-kulturowej współczesności (wybory - powtórzenia - różnice)
2018
The subject of the article - developed through the literary and cultural contexts of contemporary literature - concentrates mainly on different forms of the presence of tradition (targeting the Romantic one as key and the Old Polish as the subsequent one). A look at the styles and tones of the literature-"thriving" languages of these traditions allows us to see these traditions in a different critical light (national symbols/Polish signs/patters/transformations).
