Let (Zn)n∈N be a d-dimensional random walk in random scenery, i.e., Zn = ∑n−1 k=0 Y (Sk) with (Sk)k∈N0 a random walk in Z d and (Y (z))z∈Zd an i.i.d. scenery, independent of the walk. The walker’s steps have mean zero and some finite exponential moments. We identify the speed and the rate of the logarithmic decay of P( 1 nZn > bn) for various choices of sequences (bn)n in [1,∞). Depending on (b...

Résumé. L’extraction non supervisée et incrémentale de classes sur un flot de données (data stream clustering) est un domaine en pleine expansion. La plupart des approches visent l’efficacité informatique. La nôtre, bien que se prêtant à un passage à l’échelle en mode distribué, relève d’une problématique qualitative, applicable en particulier au domaine de la veille informationnelle : faire ap...

Evaluating the effects of managing for one forest resource in terms of associated impacts on other resources is not easy. Yet methods to identify potential trade-offs among forest resources are necessary to inform people about the implications of management options on public land. This paper uses a case study from a forest reserve in the northwestern United States to quantify trade-offs between...

We hypothesize that the ability of an organism to move through a landscape is determined by the interaction between its movement behaviour and the landscape structure. In contrast, models predicting spatial distribution, local population stability, or metapopulation stability typically assume that movement ability is independent of landscape structure. These model predictions will be invalid if...
