Generating TV summaries for CE-devices

2002

Automatically generated summaries of TV content are indispensable for content selection and navigation in CE-devices. We show two different types of summaries: Short video trailers and visual overviews consisting of representative frames. The demo does not only show the feasibility of the proposed algorithms, but also shows how different types of generated summaries can be used in future CE-devices.

Sustaining Attention for a Prolonged Duration Affects Dynamic Organizations of Frequency-Specific Functional Connectivity

2020

Sustained attention encompasses a cascade of fundamental functions. The human ability to implement a sustained attention task is supported by brain networks that dynamically formed and dissolved through oscillatory synchronization. The decrement of vigilance induced by prolonged task engagement affects sustained attention. However, little is known about which stage or combinations are affected by vigilance decrement. Here, we applied an analysis framework composed of weighted phase lag index (wPLI) and tensor component analysis (TCA) to an EEG dataset collected during 80 min sustained attention task to examine the electrophysiological basis of such effect. We aimed to characterize the phase…

La viralité dans l’espace public numérique

2018

Depuis 2007 et la campagne électorale de Ségolène Royal, « Désir d’avenir », les communicants, les militants et les activistes utilisent la potentialité des dispositifs sociotechniques au service de leur candidat et de la propagation de leurs idées. Les réseaux sociaux ont profondément changé la stratégie de communication des équipes de campagne qui ont préempté l’espace numérique en multipliant leur présence social (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.). Souvent composées de digital natives et d’individus maitrisant les codes et les rites en vigueur sur ces dispositifs, les équipes intègrent la force du canal de communication afin de renouveler la relation et la communication entre le politi…

Error messages in relational database management systems: A comparison of effectiveness, usefulness, and user confidence

2021

Abstract The database and the database management system (DBMS) are two of the main components of any information system. Structured Query Language (SQL) is the most popular query language for retrieving data from the database, as well as for many other data management tasks. During system development and maintenance, software developers use a considerable amount of time to interpret compiler error messages. The quality of these error messages has been demonstrated to affect software development effectiveness, and correctly formulating queries and fixing them when needed is an important task for many software developers. In this study, we set out to investigate how participants ( N = 152 ) …
