Predictive and Evolutive Cross-Referencing for Web Textual Sources
2017
International audience; One of the main challenges in the domain of competitive intelligence is to harness important volumes of information from the web, and extract the most valuable pieces of information. As the amount of information available on the web grows rapidly and is very heterogeneous, this process becomes overwhelming for experts. To leverage this challenge, this paper presents a vision for a novel process that performs cross-referencing at web scale. This process uses a focused crawler and a semantic-based classifier to cross-reference textual items without expert intervention, based on Big Data and Semantic Web technologies. The system is described thoroughly, and interests of…
LA FAMIGLIA COME ESISTENZIALE. SAGGIO DI ANTROPOLOGIA PEDAGOGICA
2014
Il libro tesse un elogio dell’amore dell’uomo e della donna e della vita di famiglia. S’alimenta dell’intuizione che quest’amore possa diventare generativo in modo eminente: fa amare d’essere, può rivelare che essere è per amare, tal che se ne possa dire come di un trascendentale. Un assunto entusiastico, cui l’autore perviene scegliendo il linguaggio asciutto di un’analisi fenomenologica delle intenzionalità che li costituiscono, ai loro diversi livelli di realtà e di senso. In avvio si prende atto che nelle società della tarda-modernità esistono forme differenziate di coppia, ognuna sembra dar luogo ad una coppia mista; che non c’è la famiglia, ma una vera e propria polinesia di famiglie.…

Potential predictability of crop impacting climate variables for East Africa and application to sorghum in the Mt Kenya area
2013
In Southern countries with rural low income populations, the vulnerability of rainfed agriculture to rainfall variability requires effective solutions to mitigate the effects of climatic hazards on crops. Predicting the characteristics of rainy seasons some time before they start should help the establishment of agricultural adaptation strategies to rainfall hazards. This is the objective of the present study, focused on East Africa (Kenya and northern Tanzania), and divided in three parts:- Define and document intra-seasonal descriptors (ISD) that will be considered in the predictability study. A new methodological approach has been developed in order to define the onset date (ORS) and the…
Communist Authorities Contra Brother Kloc. The Battlefront Against The Illegal Trade of Devotional Items in The Koźle District In 1965
2019
W artykule przedstawiony został casus jednego z zakonników Kościoła Katolickiego. Zdaniem autora przypadek ten dobrze ilustruje realia, w jakich przyszło żyć duchowieństwu w Polskiej Rzeczypospolitej Ludowej. Wojciech Kloc, ze Zgromadzenia Braci Albertynów, prowadził handel dewocjonaliami w celu zarobienia pieniędzy na remont dachu domu zakonnego. Z tego powodu został zatrzymany przez milicję przed jednym z kościołów w Kędzierzynie (powiat kozielski), gdzie odebrano mu dewocjonalia, którymi handlował oraz pieniądze, które przy nim znaleziono. Czyn, którego się dopuścił zakonnik, został zakwalifikowany jako przestępstwo w świetle ustawy z 1958 r. o zezwoleniach na wykonywanie przemysłu, rzem…
Are discriminatory procurement policies motivated by protectionism ?
1995
When purchasing goods and services, governments often discriminate in favour of domestic suppliers. It is widely assumed that such behaviour is motivated by protectionism. Although this interpretation is sometimes valid, it is also puzzling. After reviewing some of the puzzles, the paper proposes an alternative explanation of preferential procurement based on the assumption that governmental buyers want to purchase goods and services at minimum cost, but must do this in a context in which, because of the presence of unverifiable services, contracts are necessarily incomplete. The paper argues that preferential purchasing can guarantee the efficient delivery of these unverifiable services.
Entre attirance et réserve, la carrière artistique d'Eva Gonzalès (1849-1883) aux côtés des Impressionnistes

National audience
Lignes et points : Illustration, impressionnisme littéraire et procédés
2020
International audience; Cette conférence a porté de manière générale sur les rapports entre illustration et procédés de reproduction. Elle est plus précisément consacrée à l’utilisation de la photogravure dans le livre illustré britannique de la fin du 19ème siècle. L’exemple choisi est le recueil d’essais London Impressions (Constable, 1898) d’Alice Meynell, illustré par l’artiste britannique William Hyde. Peintre et aquafortiste, Hyde collaborait avec l’inventeur écossais Donald Cameron-Swan (1863-1951) de la Swan Electric Engraving Company, spécialisée dans le cliché trait comme dans le cliché simili. À la croisée de pratiques autographiques et d’opérations mécaniques, la photogravure al…
Fragmentation and local disturbance of forests reduce frugivore diversity and fruit removal in Ficus thonningii trees
2008
Clearance, fragmentation, and degradation of tropical forests have resulted in declines of biodiversity. This loss of biodiversity is endangering important ecosystem processes such as seed dispersal. If anthropogenic disturbances affect seed dispersal of keystone plants, effects on tropical ecosystems might be especially pronounced. We studied frugivore assemblages and fruit removal from 25 Ficus thonningii trees in the heavily fragmented and disturbed Kakamega Forest, western Kenya. During 400 observation hours we recorded 36 frugivores visiting F. thonningii trees. We recorded significantly fewer frugivorous species in fragments compared to the main forest and in highly, compared to littl…
Changing Scholarly Interpretations of Gertrude Bonnin (Zitkala-Ša)
2019
The Yankton Sioux writer and activist Gertrude Bonnin (1876-1938), better known by her Lakota name, Zitkala-Ša (Red Bird), was perhaps the most prominent Native American woman of the early twentieth century. In her writings, she consistently overturned conventions of language and meaning to subvert and criticize the American discourse of civilization. Bonnin’s use of English as a tool of resistance has invited misrepresentations and misunderstandings. Criticism can be distilled into three interpretive frameworks: liminal, assimilationist and bicultural. Liminal scholarship focuses on Bonnin’s 1900 semi-autobiography for the Atlantic Monthly, which laments the author’s separation from her bi…
