La « Révolution Conservatrice » en linguistique : linguiste Staline entre « notions essentielles » et l’esprit de Weimar
2021
Fascicule en libre accès sur le site de l'éditeur - ISBN : 978-5-91674-626-6; International audience; Publié lors de la discussion linguistique de 1950, le texte de Staline laisse entendre une continuité avec la tradition, ce qui implique l’image d’une société soviétique qui a réussi à conserver son caractère «traditionnaliste» malgré des coupures historiques évidentes. Cette «continuité» serait en grande partie assurée par la langue dite nationale. Plusieurs éléments «révolutionnaires-conservateurs» du texte de Staline font penser à la métaphore de l’«Allemagne russe» comme à l’une de ses sources conceptuelles.
A new sample of large angular size radio galaxies I. The radio data
2001
We present a new sample of 84 large angular size radio galaxies selected from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey. Radio sources with declination above +60 degrees, total flux density greater than 100 mJy at 1.4 GHz and angular size larger than 4 arcmin have been selected and observed with the VLA at 1.4 and 4.9 GHz. The radio observations attempt to confirm the large angular size sources and to isolate the core emission for optical identification. In this paper, the first of a series of three, we present radio maps of 79 sources from the sample and discuss the effects of the selection criteria in the final sample. 37 radio galaxies belong to the class of giants, of which 22 are reported in this paper …
Three Peculiar Objects From a New Sample of Radio Galaxies
2001
We have constructed a new sample of 84 large angular size radio galaxies selected from the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS). Radio sources with declination above +60°, total flux density greater than 100 mJy at 1.4 GHz and angular size larger then 4′ have been selected and observed with the VLA at 1.4 and 4.9 GHz. A number of peculiar radio galaxies have been discovered, of which we present here results on J1835+620, J2114+820 and J2157+664.
Représentation des NURBS par Systèmes Itérés de Fonctions
2018
International audience; Les Systèmes Itérés de Fonctions (IFS) sont un outil standard pour la génération de formes fractales. Les IFS controlés (CIFS) en sont une extension pour la création de formes fractales à dessein industriel. Un des avantages de cette approche est la possibilité de représenter des surfaces standards comme les surfaces de Bézier, Splines, et de subdivision. La représentation des surfaces par un unique formalisme facilite leur manipulation et la gestion des interactions comme par exemple la construction de raccords entre deux surfaces de natures différentes. Dans cet article, la formulation des B-Splines Rationnelles Non-Uniformes (NURBS) dans le formalisme des CIFS est…
Disconnected Graph Layout and the Polyomino Packing Approach
2002
Conference name: GD: International Symposium on Graph Drawing 9th International Symposium Date of Conference: 23–26 September 2001 We review existing algorithms and present a new approach for layout of disconnected graphs. The new approach is based on polyomino representation of components as opposed to rectangles. The parameters of our algorithm and their influence on the drawings produced as well as a variation of the algorithm for multiple pages are discussed. We also analyze our algorithm both theoretically and experimentally and compare it with the existing ones. The new approach produces much more compact and uniform drawings than previous methods. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg …
Some experimental issues of AFM tip blind estimation. The effect of noise and resolution
2006
The convolution of tip shape on sample topography can introduce significant inaccuracy in an AFM image, when the tip radius is comparable to the typical dimension of the sample features to be observed. The blind estimation method allows one to obtain information on the AFM tip through an unknown characterizer sample and thus to perform the deconvolution of the tip shape from an image. When applying the blind estimation method to determine the AFM tip shape, some apparently trivial issues relating to the experimental operating parameters must be taken into account. In this paper, the effects of the operating parameters, e.g., sampling intervals (resolution) and instrumental noise, have been …
A Robust Wrap Reduction Algorithm for Fringe Projection Profilometry and Applications in Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
2017
In this paper, we present an effective algorithm to reduce the number of wraps in a 2D phase signal provided as input. The technique is based on an accurate estimate of the fundamental frequency of a 2D complex signal with the phase given by the input, and the removal of a dependent additive term from the phase map. Unlike existing methods based on the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), the frequency is computed by using noise-robust estimates that are not restricted to integer values. Then, to deal with the problem of a non-integer shift in the frequency domain, an equivalent operation is carried out on the original phase signal. This consists of the subtraction of a tilted plane whose slop…
Improving the stability bound for the PPH nonlinear subdivision scheme for data coming from strictly convex functions
2021
Abstract Subdivision schemes are widely used in the generation of curves and surfaces, and therefore they are applied in a variety of interesting applications from geological reconstructions of unaccessible regions to cartoon film productions or car and ship manufacturing. In most cases dealing with a convexity preserving subdivision scheme is needed to accurately reproduce the required surfaces. Stability respect to the initial input data is also crucial in applications. The so called PPH nonlinear subdivision scheme is proven to be both convexity preserving and stable. The tighter the stability bound the better controlled is the final output error. In this article a more accurate stabilit…
A nonlinear Chaikin-based binary subdivision scheme
2019
Abstract In this work we introduce and analyze a new nonlinear subdivision scheme based on a nonlinear blending between Chaikin’s subdivision rules and the linear 3-cell subdivision scheme. Our scheme seeks to improve the lack of convergence in the uniform metric of the nonlinear scheme proposed in Amat et al. (2012), where the authors define a cell-average version of the PPH subdivision scheme (Amat et al., 2006). The properties of the new scheme are analyzed and its performance is illustrated through numerical examples.
Data Compression with ENO Schemes: A Case Study
2001
Abstract We study the compresion properties of ENO-type nonlinear multiresolution transformations on digital images. Specific error control algorithms are used to ensure a prescribed accuracy. The numerical results reveal that these methods strongly outperform the more classical wavelet decompositions in the case of piecewise smooth geometric images.
