plunges in medias res, and in terse and lucid language deals in succession with the body fluids, the cell, and the micro-organism as factors in immunity, and then with immunity-reactions employed for therapeutic ends and for diagnostic purposes, ending with a chapter on anaphylaxis. The kindred topics of salvarsan and neo-salvarsan are briefly treated in an appendix. To what extent the writer d...

Social networks are the main resources to gather information about people’s opinion and sentiments towards different topics as they spend hours daily on social medias and share their opinion. In this technical paper, we show the application of sentimental analysis and how to connect to Twitter and run sentimental analysis queries. We run experiments on different queries from politics to humanit...

Digital watermarking has been proposed for the protection of digital medias. This paper presents two watermarking algorithms for binary images. Both algorithms involve a blurring preprocessing and a biased binarization. After the blurring, the first algorithm embeds a watermark by modifying the DC components of the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), followed by a biased binarization, and the seco...

An extreme flexibility of a microgrid operation requires general, integrated and hierarchical proper management and control systems. A wide variety of communication technologies from communication medias, communication protocols to sensors and algorithms are available for microgrid applications. The requirements of communication capabilities differ with the varying microgrid architectures, phys...

In this contribution, I identify rhetorical figures that are specific to interactive writing : figures of manipulation (meaning gestual manipulation). It’s a category on its own, along with figures of diction, construction, meaning and thought. In many computer art works, the artists use the figures of manipulation to introduce a loss of grasp. What is emphasized in such figures is the coupling...

In this paper, we present the idea of detecting Information Need in large social media network. Information need is the need from people to locate and obtain specific information. Social medias can benefit the users by successfully detecting such needs. We formulate this problem as a classification problem, adopting multiple sources of feature and perform linear learning. We propose a distribut...
