Abstract The digital transformation process is creating a system of new technologies that will give rise to an autonomous ecosystem capable predicting and determining what happen in the physical world. twin seen as moment creation self-named model (digital alter ego) guided its design by artificial intelligence can be source concern, questioning central role person his creative process. most im...

O artigo toma como ponto de partida o relato autobiográfico Mikhail Tchekhov (1891-1955) em que narra a morte simbólica seu alter ego, Dom Quixote, Paris, após fracasso da montagem do espetáculo Le Château s’éveille 1931. Tentativa frustrada concretização cênica “Teatro Futuro”, momento é analisado marco renovação caráter pedagógico obra tchekhoviana. Ao longo texto, destaca-se importância dada...

A new finite element heterogeneous multiscale method (FE-HMM) is proposed for the numerical solution of the wave equation over long times in a rapidly varying medium. Our FE-HMM captures long-time dispersive effects of the true solution at a cost similar to that of a standard numerical homogenization scheme which, however, only captures the short-time macroscale behavior of the wave field. Résu...

Metaverse is an immersive 3D virtual environment, a true artificial community in which avatars act as the user's alter ego and interact with each other. If we do not manage hype for metaverse, has recently been receiving surge interest, metaverse will fail to cross chasm. This article conducts comprehensive survey on computational arts, seven critical topics are relevant describing novel artwor...

This article explores strategic conceptions within the alter-globalisation movement in Ireland. Based on action research carried out within the left-libertarian (“Grassroots’) wing of the movement, it notes imbalances in participation in a very intensive form of political activity, and asks how activists understand winning. It finds substantial congruence between organisational practice and lon...

In the context of the trend toward delayed parenthood, this study examines whether older maternal age is associated with greater psychological maturity and whether greater psychological maturity provides any adaptive benefit during the transition to motherhood. A sample of 240 predominantly English-speaking Australian women in a metropolitan area expecting their 1st baby (mean age = 32.81 years...

In a community sample of 116 children, assessments of parent-child interaction, parent-child attachment, and various parental, child, and contextual characteristics at 15 and 28 months and at age 5 were used to predict externalizing behavior at age 5, as rated by parents and teachers. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis and path analysis yielded a significant longitudinal model for the pr...

If a visual observer moves through an environment, the patterns of light that impinge its retina vary leading to changes in sensed brightness. Spatial shifts of brightness patterns in the 2D image over time are called optic flow. In contrast to optic flow visual motion fields denote the displacement of 3D scene points projected onto the camera’s sensor surface. For translational and rotational ...

Ego-disturbances have been a topic in schizophrenia research since the earliest clinical descriptions of the disorder. Manifesting as a feeling that one's "self," "ego," or "I" is disintegrating or that the border between one's self and the external world is dissolving, "ego-disintegration" or "dissolution" is also an important feature of the psychedelic experience, such as is produced by psilo...

Résumé : Cet article présente une méthodologie assistée de conception d'une ontologie à travers trois méthodes, soit une méthode d'élicitation des connaissances d'un domaine résultant en un modèle semi-formel de ces connaissances, une méthode de formalisation conduisant à la production d’une ontologie et une méthode de validation syntaxique et sémantique de l'ontologie. Les processus de formali...
