Speciālo izmeklēšanas darbību aktuālie problēmjautājumi
2016
Maģistra darbs sniedz padziļinātu ieskatu speciālo izmeklēšanas darbību kā kriminālprocesuāla institūta problēmjautājumos, kuru pamatā lielākoties ir tieši teorijā un praksē nostiprinājušos atziņu dažādība. Darbs sastāv no trim galvenajām nodaļām, kurās autore apzina un analizē speciālo izmeklēšanas darbību teorētiskos un praktiskos aspektus un no to atšķirīgās normatīvā regulējuma interpretācijas izrietošos tādus aktuālos problēmjautājumus kā saistība ar operatīvās darbības pasākumiem, ar šīm darbībām saistīto procesuālo dokumentu un darbību veicēju liecību nozīme pierādīšanā, iegūtās informācijas aizsardzība u.c. Darba rezultātā autore konstatē pretrunas tiesību normu piemērošanā un ieros…
Agreement and disagreement between expectations and realizations
1990
The objective of the paper is to measure the intensity of the relation between expectations and realizations for strategic variables of firms, such as production, demand or prices. An anticipation error reveals a disagreement which can be associated with the rational expectations hypothesis. The agreement coefficient between classifications, given by COHEN (1968) and LIGHT (1971) and calculated from a probability matrix, is used to define a direct measure of the disagreement between classifications. Comparison of the coefficients is used to test the rational expectations hypothesis.The coefficients are applied to business survey data of INSEE for France between 1974 and 1986.
Recursive estimators 1
1991
In this paper, we present first the recursive estimation of parameters of linear regression models and we show the link between a matrix of projection and a matrix of gain. Two cases are examined : constant parameters and parameters changing over time. In the second part the recursion formulae for the two stage least squares are given.
Des capacités de choix aux probabilités de choix (un théorème de conversion)
1992
Une partie importante de la théorie des choix discrets concerne les développements du modèle de Luce 1959]. Cette place privilégiée provient sans nul doute de l’extrême élégance de PAxiome du Choix qui permet d’une part, d’introduire une sorte de rationalité imparfaite du comportement en autorisant la construction de probabilités de choix et d’autre part, de décrire un processus de choix qui semble raisonnablement réaliste : en effet, il est suggéré que l’agent faisant face à un ensemble fini d’actions, choisit dans un premier temps un sous-ensemble, puis finalement, à l ’intérieur de ce sous-ensemble, une action. Il existe de nombreuses versions de ce modèle ( Yellot [1977], Strauss [1980]…
La combinaison de prévisions multiples en présence d'objectifs multiples
1989
L'idée de combiner plusieurs prédicteurs pour générer des prévisions combinées plus fiables semble ne dater que de 1969, date de la publication de l'article de Bâtes et Granger (1969). Depuis lors on a constaté un foisonnement de publications tant théoriques qu'empiriques dans ce domaine et l'utilité pratique de la combinaison de prévisions individuelles y a été amplement démontrée.
User experience targets as design drivers:A case study on the development of a remote crane operator station
2013
In recent years, the notion of user experience, or UX, as an essential aspect to be addressed in the design and development of technologies has been increasingly discussed. In this paper, we present a case study in which we have used UX targets as the main design drivers and focus areas in developing a new remote operator station user interface for container cranes. UX targets describe the experiential qualities to which the product design should aim at. However, taking UX targets into consideration during product design is challenging, because only little is known about how they would be best operationalized to serve the different phases of the design process. Through our case study, we de…
An Information Systems Design Product Theory for Integrated Requirements, Test and Defect Management Systems
2012
Software companies need to develop high-quality products fast and with low cost. Development activities are typically distributed in different places and involve multiple stakeholders in different countries. Testing is an important way to ensure product quality but it is costly and takes ample time and resources. Sourcing testing services from specialized service providers is often the most viable option for software businesses. Flexible and effective test process management is especially vital to support the testing life-cycle when external testing service providers are involved. Yet, the extant literature provides little theoretical guidance for managing the testing life-cycle, including …
Use of a Semantic Language to Reduce the Indeterminacy in Agents Communication
2014
In the field of agent communications uncertainty and vagueness in the message content and in the achievable results play a primordial role when two agents (human or artificial) communicate. Even though the importance of vagueness and uncertainty has been recognized long ago, only recently mechanisms related to the communications’ semantics that allow a practical approach have been designed; more specifically, the development of tools such as agent programming languages and frameworks, which is a field of intensive research. On the other hand, recent theoretical ideas, drawn from situation semantics theory and the works of Sutton on semantic information, support this work. This paper applies…
A Study on the Assessment of Introductory Computational Thinking via Scratch Programming in Primary Schools
2018
Computational thinking (CT), a transversal intellectual foundation integral to computer science, is making its way into compulsory comprehensive education worldwide. Students are expected to attain skills and knowledge in such interdisciplinary CT principles as Algorithmic thinking, Data representation, and Debugging. Problem-solving by designing and manipulating interactive media with Scratch, a graphical programming tool, is popular especially at the primary school level. However, there has been confusion regarding how introductory CT can be operationalized for educational practice. Teachers and students need research-based knowledge for setting appropriate learning goals in addition to i…
Estimating traffic operations at multi-lane roundabouts: A case study
2014
This paper addresses traffic modeling issues at urban multi-lane roundabouts where, despite circulating vehicles have priority, negotiation of the right-of-way can occur between antagonist traffic flows, as a result of minor drivers’ failing to obey the nominal operating rule (stop or yield control). Existing models for the estimation of operational performances have the shortcoming of not representing the interdependencies between entering and circulating vehicles at multi-lane roundabouts. An analytical capacity model derived from field observations was developed for this kind of intersections in a previous study. The complexity of the model lies in the difficulty of observing the behavio…
