Deontiskās modalitātes izteikšanas līdzekļi ES tiesību dokumentos angļu valodā un to tulkojumos latviešu un spāņu valodā
2016
Modālo darbības vārdu pareiza lietošana un tulkošana juridiskos tekstos ir ļoti svarīga, jo tos lieto tiesību piešķiršanai un pienākumu uzlikšanai. Šī bakalaura darba mērķis bija konstatēt, kuri darbības vārdi var izteikt atļauju, pienākumu un nepieciešamību juridiskos tekstos un salīdzināt angļu deontisko modālo darbības vārdu lietošanu likumdošanas dokumentos ar paņēmieniem, ko lieto to modālitašu izteikšanai latviešu un spāņu šo dokumentu versijās. Lai sasniegtu to mērķi tika pielietotas kvantitatīvas un kvalitatīvas pētījuma metodes, kā arī salīdzinoša analīze. Rezultātā tika konstatētas deontiskās modālo vārdu nozīmes; tika izanalizēti modālo vārdu tulkošanas noteikumi juridiskā kontek…
Constructing the Moral Order of a Relationship in Couples Therapy
2016
Although couples therapy is rightly seen as one modality of the psychotherapies, many salient aspects of the process are not revealed by psychological theory. These have to do with how, in therapeutic conversations, the couple relationship is presented and performed as a social institution with a particular social and moral order. The moral order of a relationship includes more or less articulated and shared understandings of what is valued and what is not, what are the loyalties, duties, and responsibilities expected from the partners, and the grounds for evaluating actions. It also includes expectations concerning how value, concern, and respect are communicated. In this case study, based…
Color superposition: a new modality for contrast echocardiography.
1987
To improve the estimation of endocardial borders in echocardiography, a technique has been developed to combine images from contrasted and noncontrasted echocardiograms of the same heart-phase using a color superposition mode. This method allows both experienced as well as less experienced examiners to define the endocardial borders more reproducibly and objectively. This is achieved by displaying tissue structures as gray level images while the ventricular cavity is marked selectively by the color display of the contrast material zone. Results of volume estimations of the left ventricle by different examiners using several imaging modes including color superposition display are presented.
Discovering the Discriminating Power in Patient Test Features Using Visual Analytics: A Case Study in Parkinson’s Disease
2016
Part 11: New Methods and Tools for Big Data Wokshop (MT4BD); International audience; This paper presents a novel methodology for selecting the most representative features for identifying the presence of the Parkinson’s Disease (PD). The proposed methodology is based on interactive visual analytic based on multi-objective optimisation. The implemented tool processes and visualises the information extracted via performing a typical line-tracking test using a tablet device. Such output information includes several modalities, such as position, velocity, dynamics, etc. Preliminary results depict that the implemented visual analytics technique has a very high potential in discriminating the PD …
Attempt to Construct a Scale for the Measurement of the Effect of Suggestion on Perception1
1975
A scale based on experimental methods has been prepared for measuring the effects of indirect suggestion upon perception. Three categories are included: (1) distorting the interpretation of presented stimuli, (2) inducing sense-impressions in the absence of adequate stimuli, and (3) producing insensitivity to stimuli that are objectively present. Test situations were designed for tactual, auditory, and visual perception. The scale was tested on a sample of 112 students from the 11th and 12th grades of a large city high school (58 girls and 54 boys). Most of the item intercorrelations were positive and many significantly so. Eliminating the 9 lowest items of 21 left 12 for a reduced matrix,…
La promoción de la imagen política en Instagram: un estudio del perfil personal de Santiago Abascal (Vox) en 2018
2020
Due to Instagram’s growing popularity in Spain, politicians have also begun to turn to this social network increasingly more. Accordingly, this paper analyses the visual and textual discourse of 259 posts published throughout 2018 on the personal Instagram profile of Santiago Abascal, the leader of the party Vox. Insofar as he is the Spanish politician with the highest number of followers on Instagram, the aim here is to analyse how he uses this social network in order to identify possible strategies that justify his growing number of followers. In the analysis, special attention was paid to aspects that might have contributed to the (self)presentation of Abascal and the promotion of his pa…
Application of finger span cross modality matching method (FSCM) by naive assessors for olfactometric discrimination of Gewürztraminer wines
2002
Abstract A gas-chromatography-olfactometric detection (GCO) using a direct estimation of odor intensities with the finger span (FSCM) was used to establish aroma profiles of three wines of gewurztraminer from different ‘terroirs’ of the Alsace region. The GCO-FSCM analyses of their hydroalcoholic wine extracts were performed using a group of untrained assessors. Forty-four olfactory signals were perceived by at least four assessors out of six and their intensities were scored in triplicate in each of the three wine extracts, amongst which ten of them were found discriminant between wines. The reliability of each assessor was studied on the basis of the finger span estimation repeatability, …
Exploiting multimodality for intelligent mobile access to pervasive services in cultural heritage sites
2010
In this chapter the role of multimodality in intelligent, mobile guides for cultural heritage environments is discussed. Multimodal access to information contents enables the creation of systems with a higher degree of accessibility and usability. A multimodal interaction may involve several human interaction modes, such as sight, touch and voice to navigate contents, or gestures to activate controls. We first start our discussion by presenting a timeline of cultural heritage system evolution, spanning from 2001 to 2008, which highlights design issues such as intelligence and context-awareness in providing information. Then, multimodal access to contents is discussed, along with problems an…
"Nerdfighters, we did it" : means of building a sense of community on the YouTube channel Vlogbrothers
2015
YouTube on tärkeä uusi ilmiö ja suosittu viihdekanava etenkin nuorten keskuudessa. YouTube-yhteisöjen suosiosta huolimatta ei niistä ole vielä tehty juurikaan tutkimusta, ja nettiyhteisöjen tutkimus onkin kohdistunut lähinnä tekstipohjaisiin yhteisöihin, kuten foorumeihin. Tutkielmani tarkoituksena on selvittää, kuinka YouTuben videobloggaajat rakentavat yhteisöllisyyden tunnetta faniensa keskuudessa. Tutkimuskohteenani on YouTube-kanava Vlogbrothers, jolla on yli kaksi miljoonaa vakituista katsojaa ja jonka ympärille on rakentunut poikkeuksellisen tiivis kansainvälinen katsojayhteisö. Videodataa analysoimalla pyrin erottamaan erilaisia keinoja, joilla vloggaajat vahvistavat yhteisöllisyyde…
Research on regular priories, monastic and canonic in the formes dioceses of Chalon and Mâcon from the 10th to the 14th centuries
2013
The study presented here is the result from an inventory of the priories in the former dioceses of Chalon and Macon, closely dependent on the metropolis of Lyon .This territory corresponds to the main roads of the former realm of Burgundy. Among the 183 priories which have been retained, only 69 depended on Cluny, all the others belonged to the other monastic or canonic families of St Augustine’s order. The majority of these priories was mentioned for the first time by sources from late ninth and beginning of tenth century.The data collected have allowed to draw a map of the implanted sites in the form of a poster attached to the thesis and an index of the sources which are, for the most pa…
