A novel approach for image sweeping functions using approximating scheme

2009

International audience; Using Kolmogorov's superposition theorem, complex N-dimensional signal can be expressed by simpler 1D functions. Precisely, Kolmogorov has demonstrated that any multivariate function can be decomposed into sums and compositions of monovariate functions, that are called inner and external functions. We present one of the most recent method of monovariate functions construction. The algorithm proposed by Igelnik approximates the monovariate functions. Different layers are constructed and superposed. A layer is constituted by a couple of internal and external functions, that realizes an approximation of the multivariate function with a given precision, which corresponds…

Semantic Measures: A State of the Art

2014

Significant advances in terms of syntactic, structural and schematic heterogeneity have been achieved by adopting conventions and standards. The IT community is now trying to solve the problem of semantic heterogeneity (particularly in the Semantic Web field). To reach this objective, it is necessary to enable machines to understand the semantics of terms. Semantics, as opposed to syntax, defines the mental representation of concepts corresponding to the symbols used in texts or images. When a person reads a text, he uses a semantization process which enables him to associate an interpretation to each sign identified. This operation uses a number of underlying processes such as measuring se…

Formalizing Semantic of Natural Language through Conceptualization from Existence

2011

International audience; We propose an outline of an approach to formalize semantic from conceptualization for both natural language (NL) and logic expression mechanisms. This goes beyond the level of discussions at conceptual level which has to either end in conscious/unconscious relativity of understanding or subjective enforcement in the form of definitions instead of expected objective semantic. This approach supports to view from a pure mathematical perspective, and explore and locate the fundamental problems. The semantic formalization mechanism realizes the integration of problem description and the solution expression at absolute semantic level. So a problem describing process is equ…

Temporal Semantic Centrality for the Analysis of Communication Networks

2012

National audience; De nos jours, la compréhension des communautés en ligne devient un enjeu majeur du Web. Dans cet article nous proposons une nouvelle mesure, la Probabilité de Propagation Sémantique (SPP), qui caractérise la capacité de l'utilisateur à propager un concept sémantique à d'autres utilisateurs, d'une manière rapide et ciblée. La sémantique des messages est analysée selon une ontologie donnée. Nous utilisons cette mesure pour obtenir la Centralité Sémantique Temporelle (TSC) d'un utilisateur dans une communauté. Nous proposons et évaluons une expérimentation de cette mesure, en utilisant une ontologie et des données réelles issues du Web.

Temporal Logic To Query Semantic Graphs Using The Model Checking Method

2012

International audience; Semantic interoperability problems have found their solutions due to the use of languages and techniques from the Semantic Web. The proliferations of ontologies and meta-information have improved the understanding of information and the relevance of search engine responses. However, the construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation or modeling, and scalability remains a major problem. The processing of large semantic graphs is a limit to the use of semantics in current information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border of two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. This line of rese…

Asymptotic bit frequency in Fibonacci words

2021

It is known that binary words containing no $k$ consecutive 1s are enumerated by $k$-step Fibonacci numbers. In this note we discuss the expected value of a random bit in a random word of length $n$ having this property.

In Vitro Arrhythmia Generation by Mild Hypothermia - a Pitchfork Bifurcation Type Process

2015

International audience; The neurological damage after cardiac arrest (CA) constitutes a big challenge of hospital discharge. The therapeutic hypothermia (34°C-32°C) has shown its benefit to reduce cerebral oxygen demand and improve neurological outcomes after the cardiac arrest. However, it can have many adverse effects, among them the cardiac arrhythmia generation represents an important part (up to 34%, according different clinical studies). Monolayer cardiac culture is prepared with cardiomyocytes from new-born rat directly on the multi-electrodes array, which allows acquiring the extracellular potential of the culture. The temperature range is 37°C - 30°C - 37°C, representing the coolin…

Détection d'Anomalie dans les Signaux Physiologiques

2015

International audience; Les signaux physiologiques sont des séries temporelles riches en informations. Analyser ces signaux pour extraire ces informations, pour établir un diagnostic ou encore pour prédire une évolution, nécessite des outils performants et adaptés à leurs caractéristiques intrinsèques. En effet le comportement d'un système biologique dépend des variations de très nombreux paramètres, ce qui le rend alors presque imprévisible. Les méthodes issues de la théorie du chaos et de la dynamique non linéaire apportent des éléments qui permettent de comprendre ce type de comportements, et d'établir ainsi un lien qualitatif avec des modèles mathématiques bio-inspirés ou phénoménologiq…

Constraints on the origin of cosmic rays above 10^18 eV from large-scale anisotropy searches in data of the Pierre Auger Observatory

2012

A thorough search for large-scale anisotropies in the distribution of arrival directions of cosmic rays detected above 10(18) eV at the Pierre Auger Observatory is reported. For the first time, these large-scale anisotropy searches are performed as a function of both the right ascension and the declination and expressed in terms of dipole and quadrupole moments. Within the systematic uncertainties, no significant deviation from isotropy is revealed. Upper limits on dipole and quadrupole amplitudes are derived under the hypothesis that any cosmic ray anisotropy is dominated by such moments in this energy range. These upper limits provide constraints on the production of cosmic rays above 10(…
