Adaptativité générique et itérative d'un EIAH aux styles d'interaction des étudiants

Nous proposons, dans cet article, la définition d'un framework générique de web service permettant l'adaptativité itérative d'un artefact plate-forme de formation aux différents styles (visuel, auditif, kinesthésique) d'interaction des apprenants. Nous rendons compte des expérimentations que nous avons menées en détaillant, dans le cadre d'une formation entièrement à distance, le processus dynamique d'évaluation des styles. Nous illustrons l'adaptativité générée par nos web services et une enquête d'usage menée auprès des apprenants conclut notre étude

Applying Model Driven Engineering Techniques and Tools to the Planets Game Learning Scenario

24 pagesInternational audienceCPM (Cooperative Problem-Based learning Metamodel) is a visual language for the instructional design of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) situations. This language is a UML profile implemented on top of the Objecteering UML Case tool. In this article, we first present the way we used CPM language to bring about the pedagogical transposition of the planets game learning scenario. Then, we propose some related works conducted to improve CPM usability: on the one hand, we outline a MOF solution and an Eclipse GMF solution instead of the UML profile approach. On the other hand, we propose some explanations about transforming CPM models into LMS compliant data, and tool functionality

Particle approximation of the intensity measures of a spatial branching point process arising in multi-target tracking

The aim of this paper is two-fold. First we analyze the sequence of intensity measures of a spatial branching point process arising in a multiple target tracking context. We study its stability properties, characterize its long time behavior and provide a series of weak Lipschitz type functional contraction inequalities. Second we design and analyze an original particle scheme to approximate numerically these intensity measures. Under appropriate regularity conditions, we obtain uniform and non asymptotic estimates and a functional central limit theorem. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first sharp theoretical results available for this class of spatial branching point processes.Comment: Revised version Technical report INRIA HAL-INRIA RR-723

The PBRM (perception-based regional mapping): A spatial method to support regional development initiatives

International audienceThis paper examines the relevance of a perception-based regional level mapping tool in rural Niger. Two regions in Niger are examined. Results permit to assume that such a tool helped to fill several gaps: (i) a scale gap between local and nation wide studies; (ii) a scientific gap between biophysical and socio-anthropological sciences; and (iii) a methodological gap of integration between data sources. Moreover, this method is fast, cheap and action-oriented. Data are easily understandable and usable both by rural communities and development agencies. It provides information about human dynamics at a regional level, which cannot be achieved by other method

Déterminants du profit d'une firme suite à l'innovation d'un antibiotique

Dans un contexte où la résistance bactérienne est directement liée à l’efficacité de traitement des antibiotiques, ce mémoire compare les déterminants du profit d’une firme suite à l’innovation d’un antibiotique d’un premier cas où la firme possède un réservoir d’efficacité de traitement différent de ses concurrents et d’un second cas où le réservoir d’efficacité est conjointement exploité par la firme innovatrice et ses concurrents. Dans le premier cas, la firme attribue une valeur implicite positive à son propre réservoir d’efficacité et une valeur implicite négative au réservoir concurrent. Dans le second cas, la firme innovatrice doit accorder une valeur implicite positive au réservoir partagé. Elle doit par contre escompter davantage les revenus futurs de l’exploitation de ce réservoir commun comparativement au premier cas où elle possède son propre réservoir

A Spectro-photometric Analysis of Cool White Dwarfs in the Gaia and Pan-STARRS Footprint

We present a spectro-photometric analysis of 2880 cool white dwarfs within 100 pc of the Sun and cooler than Teff = 10,000 K, with grizy Pan-STARRS photometry and Gaia trigonometric parallaxes available. We also supplement our data sets with near-infrared JHK photometry, when available, which is shown to be essential for interpreting the coolest white dwarfs in our sample. We perform a detailed analysis of each individual object using state-of-the-art model atmospheres appropriate for each spectral type including DA, DC, DQ, DZ, He-rich DA, and the so-called IR-faint white dwarfs. We discuss the temperature and mass distributions of each subsample, as well as revisit the spectral evolution of cool white dwarfs. We find little evidence in our sample for the transformation of a significant fraction of DA stars into He-atmosphere white dwarfs through the process of convective mixing between Teff = 10,000 K and 6500 K, although the situation changes drastically in the range Teff = 6500 - 5500 K where the fraction of He-atmosphere white dwarfs reaches 45%. However, we also provide strong evidence that at even cooler temperatures (Teff < 5200 K), most DC white dwarfs have H atmospheres. We discuss a possible mechanism to account for this sudden transformation from He- to H-atmosphere white dwarfs involving the onset of crystallization and the occurrence of magnetism. Finally, we also argue that DQ, DZ, and DC white dwarfs may form a more homogeneous population than previously believed.Comment: Accepted for publication in MNRAS (21 pages, 20 figures
