We summarize the potential of high–energy e + e − linear colliders for discovering, and in case of discovery, for studying the signals of extended gauge models. We will mainly focus on the virtual signals of new neutral gauge bosons and on the production of new heavy leptons.

Identification de personnes dans des flux multimédia

This paper describes a multi-modal person recognition system for video broadcast developed for participating to the REPERE challenge, that was organized jointly by the DGA and the ANR (French Research National Agency). The main track of this challenge targets the identification of all persons occurring in a video either. The main scientific issue addressed by this challenge is the combination o...

Typage de noms toponymiques à des fins d'indexation géographique

This paper presents an automatic annotation of spatial expressions enabling the improvement of the indexing process of non-structured geographic information. The proposed method combines the use of specific intra-sentential relationships and external resources. It relies on expanded spatial named entities recognition to deduce a symbolic representation expressed in terms of semantic features, o...

Sampling is a process that is omnipresent in computer graphics. Specifically, it plays an important role in the estimation of integrals used in digital image synthesis. It is also used in digital halftoning, image processing, as well as geometric modelling. There is no definitive sampling strategy that can ensure the best results in all cases ; regular sampling proves to be inefficient and ofte...
