Implicit learning, development, and education
2010
International audience; The present chapter focuses on implicit learning processes, and aims at showing that these processes could be used to design new methods of education or reeducation. After a brief definition of what we intend by implicit learning, we will show that these processes operate efficiently in development, from infancy to aging. Then, we will discuss the question of their resistance to neurological or psychiatric diseases. Finally, in a last section, we will comment on their potential use within an applied perspective.
Una ricerca tra architettura e musica. La composizione nelle teorie seriali
2013
Nella percezione cognitiva umana l'ascolto di un brano musicale o l'esperienza spaziale dell'architettura hanno la stessa capacita di divenire immagini, idee, ricordi o memoria. La questione sulla quale sovente ci si interroga è se questa appurata "conseguenza comune" discerne da una verificata "causa comune" o se, in altri termini, esiste un'istanza che lega così strettamente la percezione di un suono e di un'architettura. Architettura e musica trovano entrambe la loro genesi nel medesimo, sublime, atto: il "comporre". Atto di "creazione" di opere nuove, certo, ma anche atto di "indagine" del complesso sistema di relazioni che strutturano i rapporti sia tra gli oggetti semplici dell’opera …
Live demonstration: multiplexing AER asynchronous channels over LVDS Links with Flow-Control and Clock-Correction for Scalable Neuromorphic Systems

Paper presented at the 2017 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), held in Baltimore, MD, USA, on 28-31 May 2017.
A statistical monitoring approach for automotive on-board diagnostic systems
2007
The current generation of vehicle models are increasingly being equipped with on-board diagnostic (OBD) systems aimed at assessing the ‘state of health’ of important anti-pollution subsystems and components. In order to promptly diagnose and fix quality and reliability problems that may potentially affect such complex diagnostic systems, even during advanced development prior to mass production, some vehicle prototypes undergo a testing phase under realistic conditions of use (a mileage accumulation campaign). The aim of this work is to set up a statistical tool for improving the reliability of the OBD system by monitoring its operation during the mileage accumulation campaign of a new vehi…
Modeling the relationship between rapid automatized naming and literacy skills across languages varying in orthographic consistency
2015
The purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to contrast the prominent theoretical explanations of the rapid automatized naming (RAN)-reading relationship across languages varying in orthographic consistency (Chinese, English, and Finnish) and (b) to examine whether the same accounts can explain the RAN-spelling relationship. In total, 304 Grade 4 children (102 Chinese-speaking Taiwanese children, 117 English-speaking Canadian children, and 85 Finnish-speaking children) were assessed on measures of RAN, speed of processing, phonological processing, orthographic processing, reading fluency, and spelling. The results of path analysis indicated that RAN had a strong direct effect on reading flue…
Co-educar la mirada contra los estereotipos de género en TV
2008
TV serials analyzed in this paper show a representation of stereotyped gender. These cultural products, despite its apparent modernity, reproduce inequalities in the representation of the feminine and masculine through gender stereotypes which are sexist models for the construction of gender identity among its young viewers. Besides, a gender and co-education approach for an audiovisual alphabetization should be a good way against inequality. Se analizan en este trabajo un conjunto de series de televisión que plantean una representación estereotípica de los géneros. Pese a su aparente modernidad, múltiples productos culturales-televisivos siguen siendo portadores de discursos que reproducen…
Quantification of Listeria monocytogenes in salads by real time quantitative PCR
2005
Abstract A real time quantitative PCR (RTQ-PCR) was carried out purifying DNA extracts of Listeria monocytogenes using a High Pure Listeria Sample Preparation Kit and quantifying in a LightCycler system with hybridisation probes. A standard curve was constructed with serial dilutions. A range linear relationship, from 10 to 10 5 L. monocytogenes colony forming units (CFU), was observed between threshold cycle ( C t ) and logarithmic concentration of the serial dilutions. The assay was linear in a range from 10 to 10 5 L. monocytogenes CFU and the coefficient of determination ( r 2 ) was > 0.98. RTQ-PCR presented an efficiency of > 85%. The accuracy of the PCR-based assay, expressed as % bia…
Development of a real-time PCR assay for detection and quantification of enterotoxigenic members of Bacillus cereus group in food samples
2009
A highly sensitive real-time PCR (qPCR) procedure, targeting the phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C gene (pc-plc), was developed for specific detection and quantification of strains belonging to Bacillus cereus group. The target region was selected based on the enterotoxigenic profiles of 75 Bacillus strains. The inclusivity and exclusivity of the RTi-PCR assay were assessed with 59 isolates of the B. cereus group, 16 other Bacillus spp., and 4 non-Bacillus strains. The assay was also used to construct calibration curves for different food matrices, and it had a wide quantification range of 6 log units using both serial dilutions of purified DNA and calibrated cell suspensions of …
A TaqMan-based real-time PCR assay for the specific detection and quantification ofLeuconostoc mesenteroidesin meat products
2007
A new real-time PCR procedure was developed for the specific detection and quantification of Leuconostoc mesenteroides in meat products. It is a TaqMan assay based on 23S rRNA gene targeted primers and probe. Specificity was evaluated using purified DNA from 132 strains: 102 lactic acid bacteria (LAB), including 57 reference strains and 46 food isolates, belonging to genus Leuconostoc and related genera, and 30 non-LAB strains. Quantification was linear over at least 5 log units using both serial dilutions of purified DNA and calibrated cell suspensions from Leuconostoc mesenteroides ssp. dextranicum CECT 912T. This assay was able to detect at least five genomic equivalents, using purified …
Storia d'altre storie. Le avanguardie del secondo dopoguerra e "Jeux" di Debussy
2007
La composizione "Jeux" di Debussy, trascurata nella prima metà del Novecento, diventa nel corso degli anni Cinquanta un banco di prova delle teorie compositive dei protagonisti delle avanguardie musicali del dopoguerra, ognuno dei quali, proprio in base alle personali concezioni estetiche, dà una dell'opera del compositore francese una lettura fortemente divergente dalle altre.
