Abstract:
Watershed assessment methods are used in natural resource management to monitor and assess watershed conditions. Many assessment methods are available for these purposes, however, most have not been evaluated to determine their effectiveness. Additionally, most methods require comparisons with references sites. These are often difficult to select due to past disturbances, and spatial or temporal changes. This study attempts to address these issues. Three watershed assessment methods, channel geomorphic analysis, zigzag pebble count, and thalweg-watershed area link (T-Walk), were chosen for eva

Abstract:
Incremental damage assessment is a tool used to assess the justification for expensive modifications of inadequate dams. The input data to incremental damage assessment are the output from the breach analysis and flood routing. For this reason, flood routing should be conducted carefully. Distorted results from the flood routing technique or unstable modeling of the problem will distort the results of an incremental damage assessment, because an error in the estimated incremental stage will cause a certain error in the estimated incremental damages.

Recent international regulatory reforms have put more responsibility on auditors for detecting financial statement fraud.

Play-based assessment is an increasingly popular technique for Educational Psychologists (EPs) in their assessments of young children. Play is seen as a medium through which progress across many developmental domains can be assessed, and a range of play-based assessment tools has been developed. Many claims are made about the value of play-based assessment but there have been few evaluations of its effectiveness, particularly for the approaches used by EPs in the UK. This study investigated whether a particular play-based assessment model represents a valid and reliable assessment tool. A popu

Abstract:
Professors who manage large classes are unrealistically expected to grade each student fairly and accurately. Even with all of the technological advancements that have occurred in the past thirty years, very little progress has been made in classroom management, and as a result, professors are not equipped with enough tools to successfully manage large class sizes. Because radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is making its way into student issued identification cards, there is an opportunity to use it as a tool to aid professors in the classroom. The focus of this paper is to di

Abstract:
Le domaine de recherche dans l'évaluation objective de la qualité des images couleur a connu un regain d'intérêt ces dernières années. Les travaux sont essentiellement dictés par l'avènement des images numérique et par les nouveaux besoins en codage d'images (compression, transmission, restauration, indexation,…). Jusqu'à présent la meilleure évaluation reste visuelle (donc subjective) soit par des techniques psychophysiques soit par évaluation experte. Donc, il est utile, voire nécessaire, de mettre en place des critères et des mesures objectifs qui produisent automatiquement des notes de qua

Abstract:
L'impression, bien qu'étant une technique ancienne pour la coloration de surfaces, a connu un progrès considérable ces dernières années essentiellement grâce à la révolution du numérique. Les professionnels souhaitant remplir les exigences en termes de qualité du rendu visuel de leurs clients veulent donc savoir dans quelle mesure des observateurs humains sont sensibles à la dégradation d'une image. De telles questions concernant la qualité perçue d'une image reproduite peuvent être séparées en deux sujets différents: La qualité de l'impression, comme la capacité d'un système d'impression à re

Abstract:
Les couvertures d'infrastructure de transport en milieu urbain sont des opérations urbaines répondant à un certain nombre de problématiques de politique publique relatives à des questions urbaines, foncières, etc. Elles s'attachent notamment à la résorption et au traitement de l'effet de coupure et autres nuisances générées par la présence de grand linéaires routiers ou ferroviaires au sein d'un tissu urbain dense. Ces interventions, résolument complexes, souffrent de l'absence de cadre spécifique et d'un manque de vision globale.Afin de proposer des méthodes et des outils d'évaluation des cou
