A Jacket That Shrinks: Measuring Time on Board Melville’s Neversink

چکیده
Cet article se propose de lire White-Jacket Herman Melville comme un exemple confinement domestique, où le rythme du temps saisonnier substitue à la compréhension chronométrique vie navale. L’intrigue tourne autour vareuse blanche portée par narrateur, vêtement fois extensible et contractile, qui rétrécit sous l’effet des variations température. La est une toile voile dynamique, j’attire l’attention sur ses propriétés physiques – poids, tissu, extensibilité pour instrument matériel mesure temps. En m’appuyant lecture que Cesare Casarino fait dans Modernity at Sea (2002), je soutiens que, lorsque rétrécit, découple chronologique (celui discipline navale) naturel (temps météorologique). Ce faisant, récit prend distances vis méta-récits omniscients progrès (histoire officielle) offre aux lecteurs compte rendu domestique première personne croissance naturelle non officielle).

Time-of-Travel Methods for Measuring Optical Flow on Board a Micro Flying Robot
For use in autonomous micro air vehicles, visual sensors must not only be small, lightweight and insensitive to light variations; on-board autopilots also require fast and accurate optical flow measurements over a wide range of speeds. Using an auto-adaptive bio-inspired Michaelis-Menten Auto-adaptive Pixel (M 2 APix) analog silicon retina, in this article, we present comparative tests of two o...
متن کاملshrinks even small worlds
We consider small world graphs as defined by Kleinberg (2000), i.e., graphs obtained from a ddimensional mesh by adding links chosen at random according to the d-harmonic distribution. In these graphs, greedy routing performs in O(log2 n) expected number of steps. We introduce indirect-greedy routing. We show that giving O(log2 n) bits of topological awareness per node enables indirect-greedy r...
متن کاملKeyword Discovery by Measuring Influence Rates on Bulletin Board Services
In this paper, we focus on relations between comments on Tree-style Bulletin Board Services (BBSs), and propose a method for discovering keywords by measuring influence rates thereon. Our method is based on an extended model of Influence Diffusion Model (IDM) proposed by N. Matsumura et al. in 2002, where they discussed the influence diffusion of a term in a comment to all succeeding comments t...
