Dehn surgeries and smooth structures on 3-dimensional transitive Anosov flows.
2020
The present thesis is about Dehn surgeries and smooth structures associated with transitive Anosov flows in dimension three. Anosov flows constitute a very important class of dynamical systems, because of its persistent chaotic behaviour, as well as for its rich interaction with the topology of the ambient space. Even if a lot is known about the dynamical and ergodic properties of these systems, there is not a clear understanding about how to classify its different orbital equivalence classes. Until now, the biggest progress has been done in dimension three, where there is a family of techniques intended for the construction of Anosov flows called surgeries.During the realization of this th…
Online Detection and Removal of Eye Blink Artifacts from Electroencephalogram
2020
The most prominent type of artifact contaminating electroencephalogram (EEG)signals are the eyeblink (EB) artifacts, which could potentially lead tomisinterpretation of the EEG signal. Online detection and removal of eyeblink artifacts from EEG signals are essential in applications such a Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI), neurofeedback and epilepsy diagnosis. In this thesis, algorithms that combine unsupervised eyeblink artifact detection (eADA) with enhanced Empirical Mode Decomposition (FastEMD) and Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) are proposed,i.e. FastEMD-CCA2 and FastCCA, to automatically identify eyeblink artifacts andremove them in an online setting. FastEMD-CCA2 and FastCCA have …
Production and turnover of organic matter in three southern European Fagus sylvatica L
1999
Above-ground biomass, litterfall and litter accumulation and decomposition at the soil surface were studied within three Mediterranean beech forests from Italy, France and Spain in order to better understand the recycling of elements associated with the turnover organic matter Above-ground tree biomass amounted to 131.9 Mg ha-1 at Etna (Italy), 134.2 Mg ha-1 at Sierra de la Demanda (Spain) and 223.9 Mg ha-1 at Mont Lozère (France). The highest amount of total litterfall was observed at Sierra de la Demanda (4.7 Mg ha-1 year-1), followed by the Mont Lozère (4.4 Mg ha-1 year-1) and Etna (3.9 Mg ha-1 year-1). Total organic matter accumulated on the soil surface in the three beech forests amoun…
Geometric quality and appearance of surfaces : local and global approaches
2012
Accounting for customers' perception of manufactured goods has become a major challenge for the industry. This process is to be established from early design to retail. Customers are nowadays more aware and detail oriented about perceived quality of products. This allows one to set not only an estimated price but also the expected quality of the product. Surface appearance analysis has therefore become a key industrial issue. Two approaches are proposed here to formalize the detection methodology and provide objective criteria for experts to evaluate surface anomalies. The first proposed approach is based on surface metrology. It consists in analyzing the measured topologies in order to bin…
Innovative electronic lithography using self-assembly films in order to modify material surfaces at nanometric scale
2013
The concept of electon beam decomposition has been developed in order to create smaller patterns than those achieved by conventional lithographic methods. This work aimed to go further about this concept through a separation of the involved mechanisms in order to better understand them and thus reach a better control of process.A device was designed and a protocol was defined where the first stage is the adsorption at cryogenic temperature of metal-carbonyl compounds. The adsorbate is then decomposed by a focused electron beam and fragmentation residues are removed through annealing allowing the deposit reorganization. The study of the different steps of the elaboration method was followed …
Dynamic instability in absence of dominated splittings.
2006
We want to understand the dynamics in absence of dominated splittings. A dominated splitting is a weak form of hyperbolicity where the tangent bundle splits into invariant subbundles, each of them is more contracted or less expanded by the dynamics than the next one. We first answer an old question from Hirsch, Pugh and Shub, and show the existence of adapted metrics for dominated splittings.Mañé found on surfaces a $C^1$-generic dichotomy between hyperbolicity and Newhouse phenomenons (infinitely many sinks/sources). For that purpose, he showed that without a strong enough dominated splitting along one periodic orbit, a $C^1$-perturbation creates a sink or a source. We generalise that last…
Nouvelles méthodes de traitement de signaux multidimensionnels par décomposition suivant le théorème de Superposition de Kolmogorov
2010
The processing of multidimensional signal remains difficult when using monodimensional-based methods. Therefore, it is either required to extend monodimensional methods to several dimensions, which is not always possible, or to convert the multidimensional signals into 1D signals. In this case, the priority is to preserve most of the properties of the original signal. In this context, the Kolmogorov Superposition Theorem offers a promising theoretical framework for multidimensional signal conversion. In 1957, Kolmogorov demonstrated that any multivariate function can be written as sums and compositions of monovariate functions.We have focused on the image decomposition according to the supe…
Response of soil bacterial communities to the incorporation of crop residues : influence of agricultural practices and link with the soil biological …
2010
The effect of the location of wheat residues (soil surface vs. incorporated in soil) on their decomposition and on soil bacterial communities was investigated by the means of a field experiment. Bacterial-Automated Ribosomal Intergenic Spacer Analysis (B-ARISA) of DNA extracts from residues, detritusphere (soil adjacent to residues), and bulk soil evidenced that residues constitute the zone of maximal changes in bacterial composition. However, the location of the residues influenced greatly their decomposition and the dynamics of the colonizing bacterial communities. Sequencing of 16S rRNA gene in DNA extracts from the residues at the early, middle, and late stages of degradation confirmed …
