Mediation Information System Engineering project is starting its third iteration (MISE 3.0). The main objective of this paper is to introduce that version. MISE 3.0 aims at defining and designing a platform, dedicated to detect, initiate and support any collaboration opportunity among potential partners (obviously based on results inherited from MISE 1.0 and MISE 2.0). This MISE 3.0 platform im...

This study intends to enhance the understanding of successive searches over multiple sessions by characterizing successive searches with a conceptual model, Multiple Information Seeking Episodes (MISE), validating MISE and supporting successive searches with a prototyped information system, PERsonalized and Successive Information Seeking Toolkit (PERSIST), whose requirements are derived from MI...

alain robbe-grillet nous offre une modalité très représentative de la mise en abyme. la mise en abyme est un procédé dans lequel un récit  est emboîté dans un autre récit. en effet, à la lecture des gommes, nous constatons qu’il a inclus l’histoire d’œdipe-roi et en a fait une intrigue policière. c’est donc à la lumière de cette micro histoire  que la tragédie grecque est démythifiée. la mise e...

We consider the nonparametric regression model with long memory data that are not necessarily Gaussian and provide an asymptotic expansion for the mean integrated squared error (MISE) of nonlinear wavelet-based mean regression function estimators. We show this MISE expansion, when the underlying mean regression function is only piecewise smooth, is the same as analogous expansion for the kernel...

A nonparametric kernel density estimator for directional–linear data is introduced. The proposal is based on a product kernel accounting for the different nature of both (directional and linear) components of the random vector. Expressions for bias, variance and mean integrated square error (MISE) are derived, jointly with an asymptotic normality result for the proposed estimator. For some part...

Storage operators have been introduced by J. L. Krivine in [5] they are closed x-terms which, for a data type, allow one to simulate a "call by value" while using the "call by name" strategy. In this paper, we introduce the directed ;,-calculus and show that it has the usual properties of the ordinary ;,-calculus. With this calculus we get an equivalent-and simple-definition of the storage oper...

Ebola viruses (EBOV; genus Ebolavirus, family Filoviridae) cause often fatal, hemorrhagic fever in several species of simian primates including human. While fruit bats are considered a natural reservoir, the involvement of other species in the EBOV transmission cycle is unclear, especially for domesticated animals. Dogs and pigs are so far the only domestic animals identified as species that ca...

We investigate the estimation of a multiplicative separable regression function from a bi-dimensional nonparametric regression model with random design. We present a general estimator for this problem and study its mean integrated squared error (MISE) properties. A wavelet version of this estimator is developed. In some situations, we prove that it attains the standard unidimensional rate of co...

BACKGROUND Adverse events (incidents that harm a patient) can also produce emotional hardship for the professionals involved (second victims). Although a few international pioneering programs exist that aim to facilitate the recovery of the second victim, there are no known initiatives that aim to raise awareness in the professional community about this issue and prevent the situation from wors...

Multimedia searching over Internet has gained substantial popularity in the past two years. Java's networking features, along with the growing number of Web browsers that can execute Java applets, facilitate distributed processing. Networking and computational performances are key concerns when considering the use of Java to develop performance-sensitive distributed multimedia search engines. T...
