The Concept of Worker in European Union Law and Its Application to the New Economic Realities. Is the Reasoned Order of the CJEU in the Case of Food …
2020
The complex interpretation of the concept of worker for European Union law has been caught up, as it could not be otherwise, with the question of digital platforms and the new way of organising labour. In this work, the CJEU's Reasoned Order will be analysed, where for the first time an approach is made to the subject of the concept of worker applied to digital platforms in the field of Union law.
An Unrealized Project: The Great Cemetery by Giuseppe Damiani Almeyda. From Archive Drawings to Three-Dimensional Reconstruction
2017
This study is aimed to the reconstruction and analysis of an unrealized project: the Grand Cemetery by Giuseppe Damiani Almeyda (1834–1911), starting from his original designs, drawn with pencil, ink and watercolor on cardboard. This project won two gold medals, once at the first Exhibition of Fine Arts in Florence, in 1861, and the other at the Exhibition of Fine Arts in Sicily, in 1863. The three-dimensional reconstruction of the model has been used to deduce the criteria of interpretation and perspective views, shaded or rendered, which have been processed trying to visualize the imagined spaces in the original drawings in orthogonal projections.
Language-Game: Calculus or Pragmatic Act?
2013
We have tried to make the potentiality inherent in the concept of the linguistic game evident by taking it back to its original context in the work of Wittgenstein. This paper aims to re-examine some features of Wittgenstein’s thought, considering in particular the notion of ‘language-game’. We believe that the language-game might play a role in overcoming once and for all the classic distinction between semantics and pragmatics. We deal with the exegetical discussion of the notion ‘language-game’ as it was interpreted in two different senses: as a synonym of calculus or as a minimal unit of linguistic activity that is directed to obtaining certain pragmatic effects in a societal context. T…
Interpretation of the Co K-edge EXAFS in LaCoO3 using molecular dynamics simulations
2011
Abstract Temperature dependent (180–400 K) Co K-edge EXAFS spectra from perovskite-type rhombohedral ( R 3 ¯ c ) LaCoO 3 have been successfully interpreted using a combination of classical NVT molecular dynamics (MD) and ab initio multiple-scattering (MS) theory. The method allowed us to account entirely for thermal disorder and to interpret reliably the contribution from the coordination shells beyond the first one into the total EXAFS spectrum taking into account many-body effects. The best agreement between experimental and configuration-averaged EXAFS spectra was obtained for pure ionic La 3+ and partially ionic Co 1.35+ and O 1.45− charges indicating the mixed ionic-covalent character …
On the interpretability and computational reliability of frequency-domain Granger causality
2017
This Correspondence article is a comment which directly relates to the paper “A study of problems encountered in Granger causality analysis from a neuroscience perspective” (Stokes and Purdon, 2017). We agree that interpretation issues of Granger causality (GC) in neuroscience exist, partially due to the historically unfortunate use of the name “causality”, as described in previous literature. On the other hand, we think that Stokes and Purdon use a formulation of GC which is outdated (albeit still used) and do not fully account for the potential of the different frequency-domain versions of GC; in doing so, their paper dismisses GC measures based on a suboptimal use of them. Furthermore, s…
Polysemy in Controlled Natural Language Texts
2015
Computational semantics and logic-based controlled natural languages (CNL) do not address systematically the word sense disambiguation problem of content words, i.e., they tend to interpret only some functional words that are crucial for construction of discourse representation structures. We show that micro-ontologies and multi-word units allow integration of the rich and polysemous multi-domain background knowledge into CNL thus providing interpretation for the content words. The proposed approach is demonstrated by extending the Attempto Controlled English (ACE) with polysemous and procedural constructs resulting in a more natural CNL named PAO covering narrative multi-domain texts.
Learning User's Confidence for Active Learning
2013
In this paper, we study the applicability of active learning in operative scenarios: more particularly, we consider the well-known contradiction between the active learning heuristics, which rank the pixels according to their uncertainty, and the user's confidence in labeling, which is related to both the homogeneity of the pixel context and user's knowledge of the scene. We propose a filtering scheme based on a classifier that learns the confidence of the user in labeling, thus minimizing the queries where the user would not be able to provide a class for the pixel. The capacity of a model to learn the user's confidence is studied in detail, also showing the effect of resolution is such a …
Quasi conjunction, quasi disjunction, t-norms and t-conorms: Probabilistic aspects
2013
We make a probabilistic analysis related to some inference rules which play an important role in nonmonotonic reasoning. In a coherence-based setting, we study the extensions of a probability assessment defined on $n$ conditional events to their quasi conjunction, and by exploiting duality, to their quasi disjunction. The lower and upper bounds coincide with some well known t-norms and t-conorms: minimum, product, Lukasiewicz, and Hamacher t-norms and their dual t-conorms. On this basis we obtain Quasi And and Quasi Or rules. These are rules for which any finite family of conditional events p-entails the associated quasi conjunction and quasi disjunction. We examine some cases of logical de…
Applications of sinusoidal phase modulation in temporal optics to highlight some properties of the Fourier transform
2019
International audience; Fourier analysis plays a major role in the analysis and understanding of many phenomena in physics and contemporary engineering. However, students, who have often discovered this notion through numerical tools, do not necessarily understand all the richness that can be derived from joint analysis in the temporal and spectral domains, particularly in the field of optics. As part of the second year of the Master's degree in Physics Lasers and Materials at the University of Burgundy, we have set up a set of experiments to highlight these concepts and to show, on a non-trivial example of periodic phase modulation, the precautions to be taken in the interpretation of the …
Automatable sample fabrication process for pump-probe X-ray holographic imaging
2014
Soft X-ray holography is a recently developed imaging technique with sub-50 nm spatial resolution. Key advantages of this technique are magnetic and elemental sensitivity, compatibility with imaging at free electron laser facilities, and immunity to in-situ sample excitations and sample drift, which enables the reliable detection of relative changes between two images with a precision of a few nanometers. In X-ray holography, the main part of the experimental setup is integrated in the sample, which consequently requires a large number of fabrication steps. Here we present a generic design and an automatable fabrication process for samples suitable, and optimized for, efficient high resolut…
