Semi-blind Source Extraction Methods: Application to the measurement of non-contact physiological signs

2018

Non-contact physiological measurements are highlydesirable in many biomedical fields such asdiagnosis of infants, geriartic patients, patients withextreme physical trauma, and fitness and well-being.Remote photoplethysmography is increasingly beingused for non-contact measurement of heart rate fromvideos which is one of the most common biomedicalproperty required for most medical diagnosis. Oneof the common techniques for performing remotephotoplethysmography involves using Blind SourceSeparation (BSS) methods to extract the cardiacsignal from video data.In this context, the objective of this thesis is todevelop different methods in the field of extractionand separation of sources by improv…

L’integrazione dei compiti della madre e del padre nell’educazione dei figli e delle figlie

2016

The harmonious development of youth personality requires family stability and a positive emotional atmosphere; both needs are threatened by pedagogical errors both theoretical and practical. Educationalists develop skills in parents when undertaking to understand their real needs refraining from using abstract models. The phenomenological study of the most frequent educational behavior is a good starting point to set training interventions for parents. Human imperfections, experienced in their parents – as their primary caregivers – do not prevent children from achieving their potential once they perceive in them a recognition of mistakes and a desire for improvement.

De la culture à la communication au sein de l'organisation : Éléments de méthode pour une approche compréhensive des interactions

2009

8 pages; International audience; L'organisation est un univers signifiant, animé par des rites, des mythes et des valeurs. Pendant les années quatre-vingts, le concept de culture organisationnelle a connu un succès fulgurant, suivi, semble-t-il, d'un déclin tout aussi rapide. À la fin de la décennie, certains déclaraient déjà mort, un concept autour duquel il semblait y avoir très peu de consensus (Frost et al., 1991 : 1). Pour mieux mettre en relation les diverses approches des nombreux travaux dans ce domaine, Joanne Martin et Debra Meyerson (Meyerson et Martin, 1987 ; Martin, 1992) distinguent trois perspectives adoptées, par les uns et les autres, à l'égard de la culture organisationnel…

Nessuno escluso: migrazioni globali e governance dell’integrazione

2019

L'immigrazione è un fenomeno strutturale da decenni e inevitabilmente lo sarà ancora di più in futuro. Negli ultimi anni le società occidentali hanno riscoperto gli effetti sociali e identitari delle migrazioni. I flussi migratori verso l’UE, nell’ultimo decennio, hanno rivelato la debolezza dei tradizionali modelli socio-politici europei di integrazione, proprio quando la retorica politica ruota attorno alle contraddizioni degli strumenti emergenziali dell’accoglienza. Urgono soluzioni globali sui diversi fronti dell'immigrazione irregolare, il trafficking (i suoi ricatti e i suoi morti), i salvataggi, i respingimenti, la gestione dei richiedenti asilo con le sue inefficienze, le forme del…

Mutual intercultural relations among immigrant and autochthonous youth in Italy. Testing the integration, multiculturalism, and contact hypotheses

2020

Italy is increasingly becoming a culturally complex society. This poses numerous challenges for developmental and educational psychology, mainly in terms of how to encourage adequate levels of social harmony by promoting positive development of both immigrant and autochthonous youth. Within this perspective, the current paper presents the Italian findings of the Mutual Intercultural Relations in Plural Societies (MIRIPS) international project, postulating the centrality of three core hypotheses: integration, multiculturalism, and contact. Two studies were performed to investigate these hypotheses. Study 1 comprised 188 Tunisian adolescents aged 13-18 (51% F; Mage=15.94), while Study 2 inclu…

Politiche, servizi e migranti: questioni aperte sull’integrazione

2017

L’integrazione rappresenta una questione centrale della politica migratoria, in particolare rispetto al riconoscimento di diritti agli stranieri presenti in un territorio, riconoscimento che di fatto, oltre che di diritto, traccia le traiettorie dei migranti e le modalità di inserimento nelle società di accoglienza. Le scelte di politica sociale in questi ultimi anni sembrano andare in una direzione opposta a quella di un welfare universale, nel quale contemperare in modo equo le esigenze di tutte le persone, cittadine o migranti. La scarsità delle risorse disponibili e l’introduzione dei conseguenti meccanismi di preferenza limitano sempre più i possibili beneficiari (attraverso l’inasprim…

Integrazione: genealogia e critica di un concetto

2015

In questo contributo, muovendo dalla storia del pensiero sociologico, all’interno della quale il concetto di integrazione – declinato anche con espressioni quali ‘ordine sociale’, ‘solidarietà sociale’, ‘inclusione’ e ‘coesione sociale’ – ha un posto centrale ed una lunga vicenda, cercheremo di rifl ettere criticamente su di esso e sulle sue implicazioni. Il nostro obiettivo è far comprendere l’importanza di tenere in considerazione la storicità di questo concetto, che spesso diamo per scontata o non consideriamo affatto; sottolineare il ruolo che le scienze sociali e la sociologia hanno avuto nel determinare, e reiterare, un’idea di integrazione prevalentemente basata sulla nozione di ordi…

Developing placement assessment in integration training for adult migrants in Finland

2017

As part of integration training in Finland, migrants are provided with Finnish or Swedish language courses. The linguistic objective is to provide migrants with the basic language skills required in daily life. To find the most suitable teaching group for learners in integration training, a placement assessment is carried out. This includes assessment of learners’ current proficiency level in the target language and study skills/experience. In this article we describe a project to develop a national test system for placement assessment (see Ohranen et al. 2015). En Finlande, des migrants adultes suivent des cours de finnois ou de suédois dans le cadre d’une formation pour l’intégration. L’o…
