Panel Discussion on “ how can Computer Science Contribute to the Solution of Problems Posed by Astronomers ?”
1985
A Panel was hold on June 3rd summarizing, in a way, the guide- lines and the aims of the Workshop. General questionswere addressed to M.Disney, E.Groth and D.Wells, who have expressed in the Workshop the point of view from Astronomy in the Sections “Data Analysis methodologies”, “Image processing” and “Systems for Data Analysis” respectively:
A Novel Visual Interface to Foster Innovation in Mechanical Engineering and Protect from Patent Infringement
2018
One of the main time and money consuming tasks in the design of industrial devices and parts is the checking of possible patent infringements. Indeed, the great number of documents to be mined and the wide variety of technical language used to describe inventions are reasons why considerable amounts of time may be needed. On the other hand, the early detection of a possible patent conflict, in addition to reducing the risk of legal disputes, could stimulate a designers' creativity to overcome similarities in overlapping patents. For this reason, there are a lot of existing patent analysis systems, each with its own features and access modes. We have designed a visual interface providing an …
Creatividad en el diseño de instrumentos de recogida de datos: Las preferencias espaciales experimentadas por escolares
2016
La experimentación del entorno escolar por parte de los escolares, y la reflexión sobre las sensaciones provocadas por los estímulos que alberga; son de interés para determinar la calidad estética de los centros educativos. Son necesarios nuevos instrumentos de recogida de datos que permitan aproximarse a las voces de los escolares de temprana edad. A partir de la Investigación basada en las Artes y mediante técnicas de fomento de la creatividad proponemos un instrumento que combina: la observación participante, como forma de acercamiento; la entrevista y el lenguaje visual para la expresión de respuestas; y el análisis documental por categorías, para la obtención de información…
Visual Tools in Virtual Reality: Complex Environment
1994
In this paper, we analyse an integrated system able to merge graphical and vision technique in order to improve virtual space environment. Virtual space is characterized by Dynamic Visual Icons and Virtual Reality for arising a hererogeneous environment. Essentially, we propose a fusion technique between visual icon and virtual space, where their integration is supported by Visual lcon Grammar (VIG) working on Dynamic lcon and Visual World. VIG allows to test the actions of the Dynamic Icon on the active Visual Word metaphor at the lime "t", and the different rage of transactions between user and VW(visual query, view and brows of under-world,... ). Moreover, user can define, modify and rem…
A Framework for Opening Data and Creating Advanced Services in the Health and Social Fields
2016
Open data is publicly available data that can be universally and readily accessed, used, and redistributed. Open data holds particular potential in the health and social sectors but, presently, health and social data are often published in a ‘closed’ format.There are different tools that allow to ‘open’ data, clean, structure and process them in order to elaborate them and build advanced services but, unfortunately, there is no single tool that can be used to perform all different tasks. We believe that the availability of Open Data in the health and social fields should be greatly increased and a way for creating new health and social services should be provided. In this paper, we present …
Towards a deep-learning-based methodology for supporting satire detection
2021
This paper describes an approach for supporting automatic satire detection through effective deep learning (DL) architecture that has been shown to be useful for addressing sarcasm/irony detection problems. We both trained and tested the system exploiting articles derived from two important satiric blogs, Lercio and IlFattoQuotidiano, and significant Italian newspapers.
XA2C Framework for XML Alteration/Adaptation
2010
XML has crossed the borders of software engineering and has spread to other areas such as e-commerce, identification, information storage, instant messaging and others. It is used to communicate crucial data over these domains. Thus, allowing non-expert programmers to manipulate and control their XML data is essential. In the literature, this issue has been dealt with from 3 perspectives: (i) XML alteration/adaptation techniques requiring a certain level of expertise to be implemented and are not unified yet, (ii) mashups, which are not formally defined yet and are not specific to XML data, and (iii) XML-oriented visual languages based on structural transformations and data extraction mainl…
Towards Diagrammatic Patterns
2008
This article presents the idea that the graphical representation (concrete syntax) of a visual language can be specified based on some pre-defined diagrammatic patterns. A diagram from the Specification and Description Language (SDL) is used as illustration.
Hungarian private linguistic landscape in South-West Slovakia
2014
In the field of Linguistic Landscape research little attention has been paid to the situations where a minoritized group gives the regional majority, such as South-‐West Slovakia where Hungarians form the majority. A clear majority of public signs, also in the region with a Hungarian majority, are only in Slovak, especially in the ‘official’, public sphere. In rural communities, signs posted by private citizens can be relatively frequent, too. In the truly non-‐ commercial private sphere, minorities have autonomy in public language choice. I present the local practices and interpretations of the private linguistic landscape in two ‘Hungarian’ villages in South-‐West Slovakia in the light…
The iconic interface for the PIctorial C language
2003
Iconic environments intend to provide expressive tools to implement, to debug and to execute programs. Moreover its pictorial constructs guide the user to design algorithms in an interactive fashion. Visual interfaces are especially required whenever programs run on an heterogeneous and reconfigurable multiprocessor system oriented to image analysis. Pictorial tools help the user to control the scope of variables, and the distribution of the tasks into the processors. In this paper, the general design, the visual-syntax, and the implementation of the first prototype of an iconic user interface for the PIctorial C Language (PICL) are described. >
