Full textAbstract:
The Architect's first drawn line marks a significant moment where alteration to the site is conceived and intervention with nature is beset. Equilibrium of the natural order; vegetative, habitat, hydrology, and geology are all in a vulnerable state. Rarely do these develop into harmonious balances. More often they are imposed instances.
The Industrial Revolution forever changed the relationship between humans and nature, tilting the weight of power towards man. While humans capacity for innovation and destruction have grown enormously, our dependence on the natural cycles and resources of the planet remain and grow more voracious. Yet simultaneously, modern progress has facilitated the physical and psychological detachment of that interdependence. The fundamental elements of our existence are veiled through the efficiency of urbanization and its derivatives of specialization, mass-production, and globalization.
This project is an examination of the interrelationship between humans and nature through the lens of civic architecture within a naturalistic setting. The fundamental thesis of this project is that there is a primal biological thread that connects human beings to the natural order, whether on a visceral or conscious level. This project explores the belief that humans intrinsically yearn to reinforce that bond - awakening primordial instincts developed over millions of years of evolutionary survival that have been suppressed by the artifice of modern life. Through a process of retreat and contemplation, this project offers the opportunity of individuals to evaluate and rebalance their own scales with nature and find their own accord and harmony.Master of Architecture

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation explores the troubled relationship between Hispanic-American Modernism and modernity through the close study of a representative array of authors (José Martí, Rubén Darío, Enrique Gómez Carrillo, Augusto Dhalmar and Pedro Prado). My analysis departs from the revisionist theories of Angel Rama and Ivan A. Schulman, which changed the traditional views about the movement towards a more complete vision of its role as a literature that is highly subversive.
During the XIX century, America experienced a vigorous cultural awakening unsupported by an incomplete modernization whose more fundamental principles are challenged by the systematic use of primitivism by these authors. I propose that by analyzing how primitivism is used as an essential tool for criticism, a deeper understanding of a highly codified literature and its importance as precursor of the Vanguard may be reached.

Le présent mémoire se veut une exploration des œuvres les plus connues d’Henri Rousseau. Par l’étude des rapports entre ce peintre et le « moment symboliste », nous croyons être en mesure d’établir divers liens tangibles entre Rousseau et ses contemporains. Nous avons classé la production de l’artiste en fonction d’une répartition entre ce que nous entrevoyons comme des manières distinctes d’adhérer au primitivisme. Symboliste, exotique et moderne, le primitivisme d’Henri Rousseau démontre qu’il n’est pas à l’écart de son époque, mais qu’il en fait bien partie. Nous proposons un regard nouveau sur Henri Rousseau et ses créations. Certes, il est aujourd’hui considéré comme un peintre moderne et ses tableaux font partie des plus grandes collections d’art moderne du monde. Néanmoins, nous croyons qu’il est toujours, d’une certaine façon, vu comme un « personnage naïf », avant d’être un peintre. Nous pensons qu’Henri Rousseau est un « primitif moderne » et que ce cadre conceptuel, à établir entre lui et l’époque symboliste, est plus propice et approprié, aujourd’hui, à l’étude et l’analyse de son travail.

Full textAbstract:
Peintre bruxellois aujourd’hui méconnu, Léon Frederic (1856-1940), surnommé le « gothique moderne », tint un rôle important au tournant du XXe siècle comme l’un des représentants de la modernité picturale belge, tant sur la scène artistique nationale qu’internationale. S’appuyant sur un examen rigoureux d’un fonds d’atelier de plusieurs milliers de pièces, d’archives et de correspondances inédites, ainsi que sur l’établissement du catalogue raisonné de l’œuvre, cette étude souhaite reconstituer la trajectoire d’un peintre omniprésent, oublié face à la « mythologie de rupture » des avant-gardes. Si l’histoire de l’art a retenu l’image d’un peintre mystique reclus à la campagne, l’appréhension de sa carrière a permis de reconstituer le portrait d’un faux-naïf conscient des enjeux promotionnels, appartenant à une nouvelle élite belge qui fut à l’origine de l’intense vie culturelle bruxelloise. Frederic a su élaborer une mise en image inédite du « peuple », ouvrier et paysan, aussi bien comme point de convergence de l’image utile et morale, souhaitée par les tenants de l’art social, que comme projection d’un imaginaire culturel issu de la tradition et propre à une élite en quête d’un avenir meilleur pour les classes défavorisées. Stylistiquement, son art, se rapprochant de l’« archaïsme moderne » cher à Emile Verhaeren, l’impose dans le nouveau champ moderniste des sécessions comme l’ethnotype idéal et recherché de l’artiste « flamand ». Peintre bourgeois et marginal, élitaire et social, national et cosmopolite, Frederic est apparu comme l’un des hérauts adoubés de la modernité du temps et nous invite à remettre en question la binarité de la conception de l’art à la fin du XIXe siècleThe Belgian painter Léon Frederic (1856-1940), nicknamed the “gothique moderne”, played a key role at the turn of the 20th century as one of the main actors of Belgian modern art, both on the national and international artistic scene. Based on a rigorous examination of a studio collection of several thousand pieces, archives and unpublished correspondence, as well as on the realization of the catalogue raisonné of the work, this study aims to reconstruct the trajectory of an omnipresent painter, forgotten faced with the "mythology of rupture" of the avant-garde. If the history of art has retained the image of a mystical painter recluse in the countryside, the comprehension of his career enabled to reconstruct the portrait of a “faux-naïf” aware of the promotional stakes. Frederic belongs to a new Belgian elite who was at the origin of the intense cultural life in Brussels. Throughout his career, he has developed a new image of the "people", worker and peasant, both as a point of convergence of the necessary and moral image, wanted by the supporters of the social art, and as a projection of a cultural imagination, specific to an elite in search of a better future for the underprivileged classes. Stylistically, his art, approaching the "archaïsme moderne" theorized by Emile Verhaeren, imposes it in the new international and modernist field of the Secessions as the ideal and sought-after ethnotype of the "Flemish" artist. A bourgeois and marginal painter, elite and social, national and cosmopolitan, Frederic appeared as one of the heralds of the modernity and invites us to question the binarity of the conception of art at the end of the 19th century

Full textAbstract:
Humans and animals can plan and execute movements much more adaptably and reliably than current computers can calculate robotic limb trajectories. Over recent decades, it has been suggested that our brains use motor primitives as blocks to build up movements. In broad terms a primitive is a segment of pre-optimised movement allowing a simplified movement planning solution. This thesis explores a generative model of handwriting based upon the concept of motor primitives. Unlike most primitive extraction studies, the primitives here are time extended blocks that are superimposed with character specific offsets to create a pen trajectory. This thesis shows how handwriting can be represented using a simple fixed function superposition model, where the variation in the handwriting arises from timing variation in the onset of the functions. Furthermore, it is shown how handwriting style variations could be due to primitive function differences between individuals, and how the timing code could provide a style invariant representation of the handwriting. The spike timing representation of the pen movements provides an extremely compact code, which could resemble internal spiking neural representations in the brain. The model proposes an novel way to infer primitives in data, and the proposed formalised probabilistic model allows informative priors to be introduced providing a more accurate inference of primitive shape and timing.

Resumo: Avaliamos, neste trabalho, os efeitos da Geléia Real (GR) sobre o crescimento e diferenciação dos precursores hematopoiéticos da medula óssea e baço em animais infectados com Listeria monocytogenes. Além disso, a atividade estimuladora de colônias do soro, as alterações no peso do baço e a resistência dos animais frente a infecção também foram avaliados. Para tanto, camundongos BALB/c foram tratados profilaticamente, por um período de 7 dias consecutivos, com GR nas doses de 12S, 2S0, SOOe 7SO mg/Kg, por gavagem. Posteriormente, os animais foram infectados intraperitonealmente com uma dose subletal (1,Sx103 bactérias/animal) de Listeria monocytogenes. Para avaliarmos a resistência dos animais frente à infecção, realizamos uma curva de sobrevida utilizando uma dose letal desta bactéria (1,Sx105 bactérias/animal). Nossos resultados demonstraram um decréscimo significativo no número de precursores hematopoiéticos da medula óssea nos animais infectados com Listeria monocytogenes, além de uma significativa hematopoiése extramedular. No entanto, quando os animais foram tratados profilaticamente com GR, independentemente da dose administrada, houve uma reversão da mielossupressão induzida pela infecção, resultando em níveis normais de CFUGM. Outro aspecto importante é com relação à produção de fatores estimuladores de colônias de células hematopoiéticas. Neste sentido, observamos que os animais infectados apresentaram uma maior atividade estimuladora de colônias no soro. A administração prévia de GR, nas quatro doses avaliadas, nos animais infectados, aumentou significativamente a atividade estimuladora do soro, resultando em um aumento no número de CFU-GM em relação aos grupos apenas infectados. Além disso, observamos também, um aumento do peso do baço dos animais infectados, enquanto que valores normais foram obtidos quando os animais receberam GR antes da infecção, em todas as doses administradas. o tratamento com GR aumentou a resistência dos animais frente à listeriose, sendo que a probabilidade de sobrevida para as doses de 125, 250, 500 e 750 mg/Kg foi de 37,5, 37,5, 25 e 12,5%, respectivamente, não havendo diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre si. Nossos resultados sugerem que a GR possui uma potente atividade imunomoduladora, corroborando com resultados existentes na literatura e anteriormente obtidos em nosso laboratório. A ampla faixa terapêutica do composto frente à listeriose foi comprovada, visto que não houve uma alteração significativa entre as respostas imuno-hematopoiéticas nas doses avaliadas, sugerindo que mesmo em baixas concentrações, a GR é capaz de restaurar o sistema imunológico frente à infecção
Abstract: We evaluated in this work the effects of Royal Jelly (RJ) on growth and differentiation of bone marrow and spleen hematopoietics progenitors in Listeria monocytogenes (LM) infected mice. We also evaluated serum colonystimulating activity, alterations in spleen weight and animal resistance front to the infection. In such way, BALB/c mice were profilacticly treated with RJ by gavage for 7 consecutive days with doses at 125, 250, 500 and 750 mg/Kg. Three hours after the last treating day the animais were infected intraperitoneally with a sublethal dose of the bacteria (1x103 LM/animal). To evaluate animal resistance front to the infection we carried out a survival analysis with a lethal dose of the bacteria (1x105 LM/animal). Our results demonstrated significant decrease on the hematopoietic progenitor numbers in LM bearing mice and significant extramedullar hematopoiesis as consequence. In the other hand, myelossupression induced by listeriosis was reverted when bearing mice were treated profilacticly with ali doses of RJ, resulting in normal levels of CFU-GM. Another important aspect regards colony-stimulating factor production by hematopoietic cells. In this direction, we observed that the infected animais presented higher serum colony-stimulating activity. Previous administration of RJ at ali doses in infected mice significantly increased serum stimulatory activity as well as CFU-GM number when compared to non-treated bearing groups. We also observed spleen weight increase in the non-treated infected group at ali doses, which contrasted with normal values obtained in previously treated bearing mice. In addition, the administration of RJ at 125, 250, 500 and 750 mg/Kg increased animal resistance front to listeriosis to 37,5%, 37,5%, 25% and 12,5%, respectively. Our results have demonstrated that RJ has a stimulating effect on the modulation of the immuno-hematopoietic response in mice infected with LM. Moreover, the treatment with RJ increased survival rate in infected mice with lethal dose of the bacteria. We demonstrated that RJ presents extensive therapeutic dose range since the adminisitration of ali evaluated doses (125, 250, 500 and 750 mg/Kg) presented similar results

Full textAbstract:
Les Fauves et die Brücke, à l'image d'autres artistes d'Europe avant 1914, révélèrent les « arts primitifs » venant d'Océanie, d'Afrique et d'Amérique. En décentrant le regard porté jusque-là sur l'art, ils mirent en crise les représentations artistiques dominantes en Europe : elles ne relevaient que d'un modèle culturel de figuration de la nature. Dans cet écart, ils firent apparaître l'Autre de l'art : ils imposèrent par leur création de nouvelles visions esthétiques et culturelles et intégrèrent le « primitivisme » dans les discours sur l'art moderne. En cela, ils témoignent des sensibilités de leur temps, l'« art primitif », l'« Orient », correspondant à des catégories imaginaires pour évoquer l'Autre de l'art. Ils contribuèrent cependant à modifier les représentations de leurs contemporains, en montrant que l'art n'était pas l'apanage de l'Occident et en plaçant sur un pied d'égalité les cultures européenne et « primitive ». En amont, ces transferts asiatiques se sont opérés grâce à des passeurs culturels - tels Aby Warburg, Franz Boas, Leo Frobenius ou Augustin Krämer ayant transmis ces objets en Europe et étudié l'art des peuples dits « primitifs », la naissance de l'ethnologie s'inscrivant dans un contexte colonial. Les trajectoires du regards des Fauves et de die Brücke sont communes pour l'art africain, croisées pour l'art océanien, la reconnaissance de l'art amérindien restant une spécificité allemande avant 1914. En aval, leur création artistique manifeste une hybridation des transmissions culturelles, visible dans les emprunts stylistiques, dans leurs pratiques artistiques et même dans leur mode de vie pour die BrückeThe Fauves and the Brücke enlightened the art of "the Primitive Artists" from Oceania, Africa and America. Transforming the western vision of art, they activated a crisis among the prevailing usual artistic manners in Europe which, according to them, were just another way to depict the Nature. In that distance they revealed the Art's Other : they imposed by their creations a new aesthetic and cultural vision and they did create and moreover added the word "Primitivism" when they discoursed on the Modern art. Thereby these Artists represented a certain way of feeling and the following expressions such as, "Negro art", "Primitive Art", "Orient", corresponding to imaginary categories used to put a label on the Art's Other. They nonetheless contributed to change their contemporarie's mentalities in showing that art was not the privilege of the sole western countries, and in placing on an equal level European and "Primitive" cultures. On the one hand, these artistic transfers were helped by "boatmen" such as Aby Warburg, Franz Boas, Leo Frobenius or Augustin Krämer who brought these objects to Europe and studied art of the "Primitive" peoples, the birth of ethnology being linked to the colonial context. The Fauves and the artists of die Brücke shared a common way to look at African Art while their perspectives crossed concerning Oceanian Art, but the German were the only one to recognize Native American Art as an Art before 1914. On the other hand their artistic creation shows an hybridization of cultural transmissions, noticeable their stylistic borrowings, in their artistic practices and even in their way of life as far as die Brücke is concerned

Resumo: Neste trabalho avaliamos o efeito imunomoduIador do extrato seco do Agaricus blazei Murill (ABM) sobre o crescimento e diferenciação dos precursores hematopoéticos de granulócrtos-macrófagos (CFU-GM) na medula óssea e no baço de camundongos BALB/c infectados com Listeria monocytogenes. Além disso a atividade estimuladora de colônias do soro, as alterações no peso do baço e a resistência dos animais frente à infecção também foram avaliados. Para a realização deste estudo, camundongos BALB/c foram tratados previamente à infecção com três diferentes doses de ABM nas concentrações de 500, 1000 e 1500mg/Kg, administradas por gavagem, por sete dias consecutivos. Posteriormente, os animais foram infectados intraperitoneaImente com uma dose subletal (1x 10 3 bactérias/animal) de Listeria monocytogenes para avaliação dos parâmetros hematopoéticos e com uma dose letal (6x 10 4 bactérias/animal) para avaliação da resistência dos animais frente à infecção, através da realização de uma curva de sobrevida. Nossos resultados demonstraram um decréscimo significativo no número de precursores hematopoéticos da medula óssea um aumento significativo na hematopoese extramedular e conseqüente esplenomegalia e um aumento na produção de fatores estimuIadores de colônias, em animais apenas infectados com Listeria monocytogenes. No entanto, quando os animais foram tratados profilaticamente com o ABM, nas doses de 1000 e 1500mg/kg, observamos uma reversão significativa da mielossupressão induzida pela infecção, resultando em níveis normais de CFU-GM. A inibição do desenvolvimento da esplenomegalia e da hematopoese extramedular, nos grupos de animais infectados e pré-tratados nas três doses estudadas também foram observados. Além disso, um aumento significativo na atividade estimuladora do soro, nos animais infectados e prétratados nas três doses estudadas, foram demonstrados em nossos experimentos, sendo que, com as doses de 1000 e 1500mg/K. um aumento adicional no período de 48h após a infecção foi observado. O tratamento com ABM aumentou a resistência dos animais frente à listeriose, sendo que, a probabilidade de sobrevida para as doses de 1000 e 1500mg/Kg foram de 50% e 80%, respectivamente. Nossos resultados sugerem que o ABM possui uma potente atividade imunomoduladora, capaz de aumentar a sobrevida dos animais infectados com uma dose letal de Lisleria monocylogenes, possivelmente devida a capacidade desse extrato de restabelecer a hematopoese medular e esplênica
Abstract: This work anaIyzed tbe immunomodulating effect of Agaricus blazei Murrill (ABM) dried extract on growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursors of granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) in the bone marrow and spIeen of BALB/c mice infected witb Lisleria monocylogenes. We aIso evaluated the colony stimulating activity of the serum, changes in spleen weigh, and the animals resistance to infection. To conduct the research, BALB/c mice were treated prior to the infection with three difeerent doses of ABM (500, 1000 and 1500mg/Kg), via gavage during seven consecutive days. After that the animals were infected intraperitoneally with a subletha1 dose (1x10 3 bacterial animaI) of Listeria monocytogenes to evaIuate tbe hematopoietic parameters. The animaIs were likely infected with a lethal dose (6x ] 04bacteria/animaI) 10 evaIuate their resistance 10 infection in a survivaI curve. The results showed a significant decrease in the hematopoietc precursors of the bone marrow, a significant increase in extramedular hematopoiesis and consequent spleenmegaly, and an increase in the production of colony stimulating factors in the non-treates infected animaIs. When the animaIs were previously treated with 1000 and 1500mg1Kg of ABM we observed a significant reversion of infection-induced mielosupression, to normal levels, spleenmegaly inhibition and extramedular hematopoiesis in the infected and pretreated groups with all the doses. A significant increase in the serum stimulating activity was also observed in the pretreated infected animais with na adicional increase in a period of 48hs after the infection with 1000 and 1500mg/Kg of the extract. The treatment with ABM increased animal resistance to listeriosis, and the probability of survival for the 1000 and 1500mg/Kg doses was 50% and 80% respectively. These results suggested that ABM is a powerful immunomodulator capable of increasing the survival of animals mfected with a lethal dose of Listeria monocytogenes, possibly due to this extract capacity of restoring marrow and splenic hematopoesis

Full textAbstract:
A expansão urbana resultante do rápido progresso das cidades é um grande desafio para o desenvolvimento sustentável. Deste modo a concepção de modelos computacionais adequados que permitam a simulação, visualização espacializada e análise do processo de crescimento urbano é fundamental. Políticas de gestão de bairros e tipos de crescimento urbano são constituídos por equipamentos representados por diferentes tipos de alvarás ou concessões para abertura e funcionamento de negócios. Também por sistemas viários, sistemas de transporte, limites políticos e administrativos, zoneamento e arruamento. Estes mecanismos podem ser evidenciados em um banco de dados espacial por (a) dados abertos georreferenciados, um termo que caracteriza elementos humanos, informações demográficas, socioeconômicas, infraestrutura, condições ambientais e históricas, (b) diferentes geometrias (ponto, linha e polígono) e (c) utilização de funções espaciais para representar relações topológicas, direcionais ou métricas entre os equipamentos. Para construção e implementação do modelo proposto neste trabalho são utilizados os itens acima descritos (a, b, c) e um conjunto de perguntas elaboradas por especialistas na área de urbanismo, apontadas como conceitos primordiais à área de crescimento urbano. Em relação ao objetivo e a modelagem as mais relevantes contribuições encontram-se: (1) na representação por meio de um pequeno conjunto de primitivas em banco de dados com extensão espacial, (2) na elaboração de um vocabulário ou atribuição de uma semântica ao modelo, (3) na interação entre diferentes conceitos associados ao processo de crescimento urbano, (4) na possibilidade de ampliação e integração de outros domínios de dados georreferenciados e abertos e (5) no tempo de execução inferior a 10 segundos para 70% das consultas espaciais. As contribuições em relação ao experimento com os usuários, considerado a interface web desenvolvida neste trabalho, encontram-se: (1) no fato de que a ferramenta atende as necessidades no tocante a geração e visualização espacializada de dados para 4 de 5 usuários, (2) na interação com dados georreferenciados de alvarás de funcionamento, divisa de bairros e ruas e (3) na visualização dos dados do ponto de vista histórico e espacial.The resulting urban expansion from the rapid development of cities is a major challenge for sustainable development. Thus, the design of appropriate computational models that enable the simulation, spatialized visualization and analysis of the process of urban growth is critical. Neighborhood Management policies and types of urban growth are made up of equipment represented by different types of permits or concessions for opening and business operation. Also for road systems, transportation systems, political and administrative boundaries, zoning and street layout. It can be demonstrated in a spatial database by (a) georeferenced open data, a term that characterizes human elements, demographic, socio-economic, infrastructure, environmental and historical conditions, (b) different geometries (point, line and polygon) and (c) use of spatial functions for topological relations, directional or metrics between devices. Construction and implementation of the proposed model in this paper are used the above items (a, b, c) and a set of questions prepared by experts in the planning area, identified as primordial concepts to urban growth area. In relation to the goal and modeling the most relevant contributions are: (1) the representation by means of a small set of primitives in a database with spatial extension, (2) the development of a vocabulary or assigning a semantic the model, (3) the interaction between different concepts associated with the process of urban growth, (4) the possibility of expansion and integration of other areas of georeferenced data and open and (5) in the lower run time to 10 seconds to 70% spatial queries. Contributions in relation to the experiment with users, considered the web interface developed in this work: (1) on the fact that the tool covers the needs as regards the generation and spatialized visualization of data for 4 of 5 users, (2 ) interacting with georeferenced data of business licenses, neighborhoods and streets boundary and (3) in the data visualization from the historical and spatial point of view.

Full textAbstract:
L'assimilation de donnees en oceanographie a pour objectif d'utiliser l'ensemble des informations disponibles sur le systeme etudie pour contraindre les modeles de prevision a rester le plus proche possible d'un ecoulement realiste. En complement indispensable aux mesures in situ, les mesures altimetriques effectuees depuis les satellites sont des donnees strategiques pour etudier les oceans. Elles sont l'expression en surface de la dynamique sur toute la colonne d'eau. Cette these presente la premiere mise en uvre de l'algorithme variationnel dual a contrainte faible. Cette nouvelle approche est la formulation duale de l'algorithme variationnel quadridimensionnel couramment utilise dans les modeles de prevision atmospherique. Basee sur les techniques du controle optimal, sa particularite est de prendre en compte l'erreur de modele sans cout de calcul supplementaire par rapport au cas ou le modele serait suppose parfait. Apres un bref rappel des differentes techniques d'assimilation, nous mettons en evidence les principales caracteristiques de l'algorithme dual dans le cadre des equations de reaction-diffusion. Fort de cette premiere experience, nous appliquerons cette methode d'assimilation aux observations altimetriques dans un modele de circulation oceanique. Notre choix s'est porte sur le modele aux equations primitives a meso-echelle micom (miami isopycnic coordinate ocean model) dans sa version adiabatique. Lors de la description du modele, nous definissons et prouvons la validite des modeles lineaire tangent et adjoint associes a micom et necessaires en assimilation variationnelle. Nos experiences representent tout d'abord une circulation idealisee du gulf stream aux latitudes moyennes. L'etude detaillee de l'algorithme dual permet de verifier numeriquement l'equivalence avec l'algorithme variationnel usuel dans le cas d'un modele parfait. Cette comparaison sera aussi menee pour juger l'efficacite de differents types de preconditionnement. L'etude est completee par une analyse sur le contenu informatif des observations de surface revelant, dans cette configuration, le choix strategique d'une periode d'assimilation de deux mois. Ces experiences academiques prouvent le bon fonctionnement de l'algorithme dual pour l'assimilation de donnees altimetriques et permettent d'envisager la mise en place d'une telle methode dans une configuration plus realiste. La derniere partie de cette these propose une mise en application avec des observations reelles des satellites topex/poseidon et ers-1. La region des acores a ete choisie pour l'importance du jeu de donnees collecte durant la campagne de mesures semaphore en 1993. Dans cette configuration, le domaine de 1000 km de cote possede des frontieres laterales ouvertes qui sont resolues dans le modele par un rappel newtonien amorti sur les epaisseurs des couches. Les resultats sont compares aux mesures de flotteurs et verifient que l'algorithme dual reproduit fidelement la circulation du courant des acores. La qualite des resultats sera aussi demontree par comparaison avec l'assimilation variationnelle primale et l'interpolation optimale.

Full textAbstract:
Les reseaux associatifs constituent un modele de calcul parallele original. Ils proposent des primitives de calcul sur des donnees organisees selon un sous-reseau quelconque. Ces sous-reseaux sont obtenus a partir d'un reseau de base fixe, mais parametrable. Ils peuvent etre manipules efficacement a l'aide de variables paralleles specifiques. La principale primitive de calcul global consiste, en chaque nud du reseau, a associer les donnees recues a l'aide d'un operateur, et a renvoyer la valeur ainsi obtenue aux successeurs dans le reseau, jusqu'a complete stabilisation. Cette primitive data-parallele asynchrone est parametree par un operateur, un sous-reseau et une variable parallele ; elle fournit, si le calcul est defini, une variable parallele resultat. De definition tres simple, elle facilite les mises en uvres. Mais elle impose des proprietes particulieres aux operateurs utilises. Pour satisfaire ces besoins, une algebre deformee, appelee r-algebre, a ete developpee a partir de l'algebre classique. La these montre que les reseaux associatifs ainsi enrichis constituent un modele de programmation a parallelisme de donnees interessant. Des algorithmes de graphe, de geometrie et d'analyse d'images ont ete developpes. Diverses mises en uvres ont ete etudiees, telles qu'un protocole distribue auto-stabilisant, ou une bibliotheque de calcul parallele a processus legers pour reseau de stations (anet). Loin d'etre un handicap, les faibles specifications et l'asynchronisme de la primitive ont d'indeniables avantages en algorithmique data-parallele. De meme, au sein de la bibliotheque anet, les programmes data-paralleles beneficient de la diminution des synchronisations, et du grossissement du grain de calcul. L'etude souligne aussi des relations entre domaines varies : algebre max-plus et de chemins, iterations asynchrones, systemes distribues et auto-stabilisation.

L'objectif de ce travail est de mettre en uvre et valider un filtre de kalman de rang reduit pour assimiler dans un modele realiste de l'atlantique, des observations spatiales d'altimetrie (ssh) et de temperature de surface (sst) collectees entre octobre 1992 et decembre 1993. La sst assimilee provient du projet pathfinder de la nasa, tandis que la ssh est constituee de carte qui sont la combinaison d'une moyenne de ssh et d'anomalies de hauteur de la mer topex-poseidon/ers. Deux configurations du modele aux equations primitives opa, issues du projet clipper, sont successivement testees : une version basse resolution (atl1 a 1 o) et une version haute resolution (natl3 au 1/3 o). La methode utilisee dans les experiences d'assimilation est un filtre de kalman de rang reduit dans lequel le sous-espace d'erreurs est represente par une serie d'eofs (empirical orthogonal functions) de la variabilite du systeme. Par ailleurs, l'algorithme a ete modifie en donnant un caractere local a l'analyse et la statistique d'erreurs est adaptee a chaque etape en fonction de l'information contenue dans le vecteur innovation. Des experiences d'assimilation ont ete realisees de octobre 1992 a decembre 1993 afin de reconstruire la circulation de l'atlantique. La validation de ces experiences avec des donnees independantes (xbt) demontre la capacite du systeme a representer correctement la circulation des 1000 premiers metres de l'ocean. De plus, la nature multivariee de la methode permet de modifier positivement la distribution des variables non-observees comme la salinite ou les vitesses sur la verticale.

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude se propose de dégager les liens étroits qui unissent la production picturale des anciens Pays-Bas des XVe et XVIe siècles avec la mystique de Ruysbroeck l’Admirable et la pensée de la Dévotion moderne (devotio moderna). À partir d’un corpus comprenant des oeuvres de Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, Petrus Christus, Hans Memling, Hugo van der Goes, le Maître à la vue de Sainte-Gudule, le Maître de 1499, le Maître d’Alkmaar, Jérôme Bosch ou encore Gérard David et Jan Mostaert, l’analyse fait apparaître que peinture et écrits se répondent et se subliment mutuellement. Dans une première partie, nous observerons la façon dont les peintres ont décliné la progression dynamique des différentes visions (active, intérieure et contemplative) et traité le phénomène de désimagination. Puis, dans un deuxième temps, notre étude mettra en lumière que l’image soutient grâce à différents procédés (mnémotechnique, participatif, etc.) les pratiques spirituelles et méditatives des fidèles. Enfin dans la dernière phase de notre analyse, nous nous intéresserons aux mises en images d’une idée clé définie par Ruysbroeck l’Admirable, et adaptée par les auteurs de la Dévotion moderne : dat ghemeine leven (la vie commune)This study intends to investigate and clarify the links between the Early Netherlandish pictorial tradition (15th and 16th centuries) and mystical literature as exemplified by Ruysbroeck the Admirable and the authors associated with the Modern Devotion (devotio moderna). Focusing on a corpus of works by Jan van Eyck, Rogier van der Weyden, Petrus Christus, Hans Memling, Hugo van der Goes, the Master of the View of St Gudule, the Master of 1499, the Master of Alkmaar, Hieronymus Bosch, Gerard David and Jan Mostaert, this analysis brings to light that painting and writing enrich each other’s meaning. In the first part, we shall observe the ways in which the painters captured the dynamic progression of the various types of vision (active, internal and contemplative) as well as the ways in which they addressed the phenomenon of disimagination. The second part of this study will highlight the fact that the image supports the spiritual and meditative practices of the faithful through various processes and techniques (mnemonic, participative etc.). The third part of the analysis will focus on the visual treatment of a key idea defined by Ruysbroeck the Admirable, and adapted by the authors of the Modern Devotion: dat ghemeine leven (the common life)

The focus of this thesis is on facial biometrics; specifically in the problems of face detection and face recognition. Despite intensive research over the last 20 years, the technology is not foolproof, which is why we do not see use of face recognition systems in critical sectors such as banking. In this thesis, we focus on three sub-problems in these two areas of research. Firstly, we propose methods to improve the speed-accuracy trade-off of the state-of-the-art face detector. Secondly, we consider a problem that is often ignored in the literature: to decrease the training time of the detectors. We propose two techniques to this end. Thirdly, we present a detailed large-scale study on self-updating face recognition systems in an attempt to answer if continuously changing facial appearance can be learnt automatically.L'objectiu d'aquesta tesi és sobre biometria facial, específicament en els problemes de detecció de rostres i reconeixement facial. Malgrat la intensa recerca durant els últims 20 anys, la tecnologia no és infalible, de manera que no veiem l'ús dels sistemes de reconeixement de rostres en sectors crítics com la banca. En aquesta tesi, ens centrem en tres sub-problemes en aquestes dues àrees de recerca. En primer lloc, es proposa mètodes per millorar l'equilibri entre la precisió i la velocitat del detector de cares d'última generació. En segon lloc, considerem un problema que sovint s'ignora en la literatura: disminuir el temps de formació dels detectors. Es proposen dues tècniques per a aquest fi. En tercer lloc, es presenta un estudi detallat a gran escala sobre l'auto-actualització dels sistemes de reconeixement facial en un intent de respondre si el canvi constant de l'aparença facial es pot aprendre de forma automàtica.

Full textAbstract:
abstract: The Romanian avant-garde artist Constantin Brancusi is considered one of the most significant artists of modern sculpture. This is due to his innovative use of materials, such as wood and marble, and his reduction and precision of form. Brancusi developed his abstraction with "primitive" sources of art in mind. This thesis examines how and to what extent primitivism played a central role in Brancusi's sculptures and his construction as a primitive artist.
Romanian folk art and African art were the two main sources of influence on Brancusi's primitivism. Brancusi identified himself with the Romanian peasantry and its folk culture. Romanian folk culture embraces woodcarving and folk literary fables--both of which Brancusi incorporated in his sculptures. In my opinion, Brancusi's wood pedestals, such as the Endless Column, are based on wood funerary, decorative, and architectural motifs from Romanian villages.
Brancusi was exposed to African art through his relationship with the New York avant-garde. The art dealers Alfred Stieglitz, Marius de Zayas, and Joseph Brummer exhibited Brancusi's sculptures in their galleries, in addition to exhibiting African art. Meanwhile, Brancusi's main patron John Quinn also collected African art. His interaction with the New York avant-garde led him to incorporate formal features of African sculpture, such as the oval forms of African masks, into his abstract sculptures. Brancusi also used African art to expose the racial prejudice of his time. African art, along with Romanian folk art, informed Brancusi's primitivism consistently throughout his long career as a modern sculptor.Dissertation/Thesis

Full textAbstract:
The topic of this diploma thesis is body modification culture phenomenon called 'suspension'. It is a voluntary act of suspending a human body from hooks or piercings that have been temporarily pierced through the skin. Suspension is an age-old technique practiced for example by North American Indian Mandan tribe. It has been brought to the modern era and body modification culture by modern primitives. The part of the thesis is a placement of suspension to the broader sociocultural and historical context, there will be also space for development of concept of body, embodiment and pain in the western word and ritual aspect of suspension. The source for this work is mainly accessible literature, internet pages dedicated to body modifications and participant observation completed with interviews with people who had been suspended.

History of Tattooing: The Postmodern Era meets Archaism. The Culture of "Modern Primitives" dr. Martin Rychlík The presented dissertation concerns tattooing as the main theme - its history, functions, techniques, media presentations, individual motivation and general human attitudes towards decorating (and mutilating) the body. The author, ethnology / social anthropology student Martin Rychlik (Department of Ethnology Charles University in Prague), provides a comprehensive overview of many aspects of tattooing - considered as an universal cultural custom, so far poorely mapped in the Czech republic. Tattooing is a very complex and archaic phenomenon that has roots in the ancient Stone Age. The first direct archaeological proof was found in 1991, in Soelden near the Austro-Italian boarder. The mummified remains of a 5300 year-old hunter/shepherd emerged from a melting glacier and got nickname "Oetzi". Other well known tattooed mummies are the Egyptian Middle kingdom priestess Hathor and the frozen Scythian chief from Pazyryk. Many "primitive" tribes worldwide have adopted tattooing as a means of expression. Among the best documented are those of the Maori, Ainu, Samoans, Dayak, Tahiti islanders, Inuit, South American Indians and nomadic Siberian groups. The first so-called renaissance of tattoo is associated...

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation is based on my research into distinction processes (Calhoun, 1994; Cerulo 1997) between tourists and inhabitants of West Sumba in Eastern Indonesia. The imaginiaries (Castoriadis, 1987; Strauss, 2006; Lacan, 1977; Anderson, 1991; Salazar, 2012) of West Sumbanese people about foreigners also emerge from diving rumors (Bysow, 1928; Allport and Postman, 1947/1965). Their origins, dissemination, and sharpening processes, as well as their consequences will be analysed herein. This case study demonstrates how mental models of otherness are formed and reified, how they clash, and for what purposes they may be utilized. It will also analyze how imaginaries influence behavior and may lead to miscommunication in West Sumba.
