L'animation 3D comme support au code de la route. Intérêt pour les candidats sourds
2017
9ème conférence de Psychologie Ergonomique (EPIQUE) : Ergonomie des technologies pour le développement des compétences, DIJON, FRANCE, 05-/07/2017 - 07/07/2017; La réussite à l'examen du code de la route est un facteur facilitant l'insertion sociale et professionnelle. Avec un taux de réussite largement inférieur aux candidats entendants, les individus sourds éprouvent de nombreuses difficultés. Le matériel actuel composé d'images statiques ne serait pas compatible avec des habiletés temporelles dégradées dues à l'absence d'audition. La présente étude s'intéresse au bénéfice d'un matériel dynamique basé sur des animations 3D dans une tâche de prise de décision. Les résultats mettent en évid…
Representing and Reasoning for Spatiotemporal Ontology Integration
2004
International audience; The World-Wide Web hosts many autonomous and heterogeneous information sources. In the near future each source may be described by its own ontology. The distributed nature of ontology development will lead to a large number of local ontologies covering overlapping domains. Ontology integration will then become an essential capability for effective interoperability and information sharing. Integration is known to be a hard problem, whose complexity increases particularly in the presence of spatiotemporal information. Space and time entail additional problems such as the heterogeneity of granularity used in representing spatial and temporal features. Spatio-temporal ob…
Multidimensional Land Cover Change Analysis using Vector Change and Land Cover Taxonomies
2015
International audience; Around the world, land cover changes occur due to natural and anthropogenic factors. In many cases, the consequences of anthropogenic interventions are unexpected. In order for scientists and policy makers to identify land cover change processes of interest, it is necessary suitable tools for early and efficient analysis of land cover data. In our research, we present a data model that makes use of semantic web technologies to manage a hierarchical structure of land cover types. Using this approach, it is possible to manage the land cover information at different levels of abstraction. In our research, we use a Change Vector Analysis approach to represent the land co…
The spatio-temporal semantics from a perdurantism perspective
2013
International audience; In this paper we present the "continuum model". Our work follows a "perdurantism" approach and is designed to handle dynamic phenomena extending the 4D-fluent with the use of semantic web technologies. In our approach we represent dynamic entities as constituted by time slices each with semantic, geometric and temporal components. Our model is able to link the diverse representations of an entity and allows the inference of qualitative information from quantitative one. The inference results are later added to the ontology in order to enhance the knowledge base. The model has been implemented using OWL and SWRL. Our preliminary results are promising and we plan to fu…
Temporal Logic To Query Semantic Graphs Using The Model Checking Method
2012
International audience; Semantic interoperability problems have found their solutions due to the use of languages and techniques from the Semantic Web. The proliferations of ontologies and meta-information have improved the understanding of information and the relevance of search engine responses. However, the construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation or modeling, and scalability remains a major problem. The processing of large semantic graphs is a limit to the use of semantics in current information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border of two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. This line of rese…
Emergence of rogue waves from optical turbulence
2011
International audience; We provide some general physical insights into the emergence of rogue wave events from optical turbulence by analyzing the long term evolution of the field. Depending on the amount of incoherence in the system (i.e., Hamiltonian), we identify three turbulent regimes that lead to the emergence of specific rogue wave events: (i) persistent and coherent rogue quasi-solitons, (ii) intermittent-like rogue quasi-solitons that appear and disappear erratically, and (iii) sporadic rogue waves events that emerge from turbulent fluctuations as bursts of light or intense flashes.
Spatio-Temporal Beam Mapping for Studying Nonlinear Dynamics in Graded Index Multimode Fiber
2020
We experimentally demonstrate high-resolution mapping of the spatio-temporal dynamics of the beam cleaning process in graded index multimode fibers. This high-resolution characterization reveals the time-dependent nature of the beam self-cleaning process.
Universal soliton pattern formations in passively mode-locked fiber lasers
2011
International audience; We investigate multiple-soliton pattern formations in a figure-of-eight passively mode-locked fiber laser. Operation in the anomalous dispersion regime with a double-clad fiber amplifier allows generation of up to several hundreds of solitons per round trip. We report the observation of remarkable soliton distributions: soliton gas, soliton liquid, soliton polycrystal, and soliton crystal, thus indicating the universality of such complexes.
Temporal dynamics of arable weeds communities assembly : interactions between farming practices and ecological processes across crop sequences
2018
Understanding how farming practices affect weed community assembly in arable fields is a core challenge of agro-ecology. Weeds are supposed to share particular ecological characteristics that allow them to colonize arable fields despite environmental constrains exert by farming practices. In addition, interactions between ecological processes operating during a cropping season (eg: abiotic filtering) and at the scale of crop succession (eg: temporal dispersal) are supposed to drive weed community assembly in arable fields. These two hypotheses have been tested in my phD work.First, we compared a pool of weed species to a pool of non-weed herbaceous plants based on several functional traits …
Alien flora of Europe: Species diversity, temporal trends, geographical patterns and research needs
2008
International audience; The paper provides the first estimate of the composition and structure of alien plants occurring in the wild in the European continent, based on the results of the DAISIE project (2004–2008), funded by the 6th Framework Programme of the European Union and aimed at “creating an inventory of invasive species that threaten European terrestrial, freshwater and marine environments”. The plant section of the DAISIE database is based on national checklists from 48 European countries/regions and Israel; for many of them the data were compiled during the project and for some countries DAISIE collected the first comprehensive checklists of alien species, based on primary data …
