Using Hierarchies to Adapt Domain Analysis to Software Development
2001
Software development strives toward increasing the amount and quality of the software and at the same time decreasing the costs and development time. One approach to achieve these diverse goals is the systematic software reuse (Biggerstaff and Richter, 1987). In the reuse-oriented software development the key success factor is domain analysis (DA) (Arango, 1989; Lam and McDermid, 1997; Prieto-Diaz, 1994). DA is a process through which information used in software development is identified, captured, and organized with the purpose of making it reusable when creating new systems (Prieto-Diaz, 1990). While the traditional development methods (e.g., Jaaksi et al.,1999; Jacobson et al., 1999) fo…

Autoroutes, activités et territoires: propositions méthodologiques pour évaluer l'impact de l'autoroute sur la spatialisation des activités
2003
International audience; L'autoroute est-elle capable de fixer les activités ? Cette question relativement simple, ancienne etcontroversée, posée par la Société des Autoroutes Paris-Rhin-Rhône n'a toujours pas été résolue malgrél'acceptation d'une logique d'interactions primant sur une logique d'effets automatiques d'un seul élément. Ellese heurte essentiellement à un blocage méthodologique qui empêche, en l'état actuel des recherches, d'yrépondre de manière plus rigoureuse et d'exporter des conclusions validées dans tous les cas. Aussi, nousproposons une nouvelle méthode de recherche qui intègre la totalité du système de localisation des activités etune nouvelle conception de recherche qui …
Decision support system for telemedicine based on multiple expertise
2002
This paper discusses results of the research in the area of artificial intelligence applications in telemedicine. The main goal of research is to manage multiple expertise obtained from experts-physicians in different countries to develop decision support medical system of broad earmarking based on telecommunication tools. The multilevel representation of medical data is discussed based on the apparatus of metastatistics. The technique is able to acquire semantically essential information from complex dynamics of quasi-periodical medical signals by applying recursively ordinary statistical tools. The voting-type technique is used to find consensus among medical experts in their description …

Il volume Tommaso Maria Napoli Utriusque Architecturae Compendium Roma 1688 Breve trattato sulle fabbriche civili e militari e la conservazione delle architetture del frate domenicano Tommaso Maria Napoli, vuole contribuire ad accrescere le nostre conoscenze sui principi che dovevano sottendere alla realizzazione dell’architettura civile e militare del periodo barocco e tardo barocco, così come espressi nel breve trattato scritto dal frate architetto, nato a Palermo, Tommaso Maria Napoli (1659-1725), e pubblicato a Roma alla fine del Seicento. Alla traduzione dal latino del trattato, redatta da esperti (Fabio Zarbo e Pietro Zarbo), è inclusa un’interessante ricerca, redatta congiuntamente c…
An ontological-based knowledge organization for bioinformatics workflow management system
2012
Motivation and Objectives In the field of Computer Science, ontologies represent formal structures to define and organize knowledge of a specific application domain (Chandrasekaran et al., 1999). An ontology is composed of entities, called classes, and relationships among them. Classes are characterized by features, called attributes, and they can be arranged into a hierarchical organization. Ontologies are a fundamental instrument in Artificial Intelligence for the development of Knowledge-Based Systems (KBS). With its formal and well defined structure, in fact, an ontology provides a machine-understandable language that allows automatic reasoning for problems resolution. Typical KBS are E…
Classrooms, Salons, Academies, and Courts: Mateu Orfila (1787–1853) and Nineteenth-Century French Toxicology
2014
AbstractThis paper analyses the connections between nineteenth-century courtrooms, academies, and laboratories by focusing on the life and works of Mateu Orfila (1787–1853), one of the most famous nineteenth-century toxicologists. At the apex of his career, Orfila moved regularly between his laboratory and his chair at the Paris Faculty of Medicine to meetings of the Academy of Medicine, and the courtrooms in which he was frequently called upon as an expert witness in murder trials. Tracing Orfila's biographical path, this paper deals with four main sites of nineteenth-century toxicology: classrooms, salons, academies, and courtrooms. These sites are understood as both tangible places, whos…
Ensemble Feature Selection Based on Contextual Merit and Correlation Heuristics
2001
Recent research has proven the benefits of using ensembles of classifiers for classification problems. Ensembles of diverse and accurate base classifiers are constructed by machine learning methods manipulating the training sets. One way to manipulate the training set is to use feature selection heuristics generating the base classifiers. In this paper we examine two of them: correlation-based and contextual merit -based heuristics. Both rely on quite similar assumptions concerning heterogeneous classification problems. Experiments are considered on several data sets from UCI Repository. We construct fixed number of base classifiers over selected feature subsets and refine the ensemble iter…
