Les régularités temporelles du contexte sont connues pour affecter la perception d'un prochain événement sensoriel.

Cependant, l’impact de la variabilité temporelle sur les mécanismes de prédiction reste mal compris.

Abstract:
Decision-making is something we do every day, and is a broad research area that impacts disciplines spanning from economics to philosophy to psychology. The question of rational behavior has been of particular interest (Colman, 2003). A specific area of decision-making where rationality has been investigated is game theory, which deals with the interactions of two or more opponents in a competitive situation (e.g., von Neumann and Morgenstern, 1944). The dominant theoretical perspective in this area claims individuals try to maximize expected utility when making decisions (e.g., Luce and

Abstract:
The rising temperature of the earth due to climate change has shown to alter the variations of hydro-climate variables, including their intensities, frequencies and durations. Extreme events such as floods are, in particular, susceptible to any disturbances in climate cycles. As such it is important to provide policymakers with sufficient knowledge about the probable impacts of climate change on hydrologic extremes and most importantly on floods, which have the highest impacts on the societies. For this reason analysis of hydro-climate extremes is commonly performed using data at each site (or

Anxiety is characterized by apprehensive expectation regarding the forecasted outcomes of choice. Decision science and in particular reinforcement learning models provide a quantitative framework to explain how the likelihood and value of such outcomes are estimated, thus allowing the measurement of parameters of decision-making that may differ between high- and low- anxiety groups. However, the role of anxiety in choice allocation is not sufficiently understood, particularly regarding the influence of transient threat on current decisions.

Prevention or Self-Protection is an activity that reduces the probability of the occurrence of an hazardous event. However, it comes at a cost, either because of money or free time one has to spent. Thus, the question arises of an optimal level of prevention an agent should exert, with respect to his level of prudence. In the previous literature it was shown that it is important to distinguish in the modelling the time point, when prevention activity is spent, with the time of its effects.

The aim of the study was to explore the impact of spatio-temporal variations in demand and alternative-based GIS measures on location–allocation. Location-allocation models are mathematical formulations that seek to optimise facility locations (supply) in relation to the spatial distribution of demand and transport networks. However, there are a number of shortcomings to many location-allocation analyses applied to spatial planning. First, in most analyses the demands that are used as inputs to the models are static. Second, location-allocation models usually fail to incorporate demand trends

Abstract:
Conventional sources of emissions have been a prime target for policymakers in designing pollution control strategies. However, the evolution of shale gas activities is a growing concern over the impact of unconventional sources on urban and regional air quality. Owing to the development of Barnett Shale production, the fast-growing Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) metroplex has encountered both types of these emissions. Oil and gas activities result in emissions of ozone precursors, notably volatile organic compounds (VOC). The major objective of this study was to evaluate the spatio-temporal distrib

Context. In this ever-changing world of software development, the process of organizations adopting distributed development is gaining prominence. Implementing various development processes in such distributed environment is giving rise to numerous issues which affects the quality of the product. These issues could be due to the involvement of architects across national borders during the process of development. In this research, the focus is to improve software quality by addressing the impact of maturity and scale between teams and its affect on code review process. Further to identify the i

Master of Science<br>Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering<br>Faryad Darabi Sahneh<br>Recent experience of Ebola outbreak of 2014 highlighted the importance of immediate response to impede Ebola transmission at its very early stage. To this aim, efficient and effective allocation of limited resources is crucial. Among standard interventions is the practice of following up with physical contacts of individuals diagnosed with Ebola virus disease -- known as contact tracing. In an effort to objectively understand the effect of possible contact tracing protocols, we explicitly develop

Abstract:
The concentrations of trace metals: cadmium, copper, nickel, lead and mercury, in addition to aluminium, iron and manganese were determined in the sediments and pore water (except aluminium) of the Forth estuary. Organic matter (as loss on ignition), total organic carbon (TOe), total organic nitrogen (TON), particle size and redox potential were also determined in the sediments. In addition, chloride, sulphate, conductivity, alkalinity, pH, dissolved organic carbon, phosphate and nitrate were determined in the sediments pore water. Trace metals in the pore water were determined using a modifie

Abstract:
La contamination chimique croissante de l’environnement par les micropolluants représente un risque pour les écosystèmes et leurs fonctions. Les communautés microbiennes aquatiques en contact avec ces contaminants, telles que le périphyton, sont de plus en plus utilisées en écotoxicologie afin de rendre compte des effets des stress environnementaux à des niveaux d’organisation biologique élevés, plus représentatifs des écosystèmes. Malgré un intérêt croissant pour leur étude en raison des fonctions et rôles (p. ex., production primaire, détoxification) qu’ils assurent, un manque de connaissanc

Abstract:
This thesis is a population-based epidemiological study to explore the spatial and temporal pattern of malaria, and to assess the relationship between socio-ecological factors and malaria in Yunnan, China. Geospatial and temporal approaches were applied; the high risk areas of the disease were identified; and socio-ecological drivers of malaria were assessed. These findings will provide important evidence for the control and prevention of malaria in China and other countries with a similar situation of endemic malaria.
