Études de la parenté
Emmanuel Désveaux, maître de conférences Critique de la raison parentaire Nous avons poursuivi le travail entamé les années précédentes d’une critique radicale de la raison parentaire, entendue comme l’ensemble du dispositif intellectuel qui s’est construit progressivement au cœur du discours anthropologique autour du thème de l’organisation de la famille et de l’appellation des parents entre eux. L’un des objectifs du séminaire était de repérer, afin de bien souligner combien elles s’oppose..
The knowledge graph lifecycle in NTT DATA
The Semantic Business Unit (SEMBU) in NTT DATA aims to increase the semantic interoper ability and accessibility of European institutions’ data projects by following Linked Open Data (LOD) principles to build controlled vocabularies and produce Knowledge Graphs (KGs). One of its most notable projects revolves around the CORDIS portal1, which publishes information about research and innovation projects funded by the European Commission. SEMBU pursues two main goals: (i) expose semantic data related to CORDIS via a SPARQL endpoint that facilitates access and reuse of quality scientific-related data, and (ii) design an efficient, incremental, and automated KG lifecycle to be used as a reference in other data projects. To that end, we have adopted state-of-the-art semantic technologies to support the creation and management of the KG with the goal of centralizing knowledge and providing an overall view of data assets that improve data governance, maintenance, and external interaction by data consumers. We have also identified some of their limitations which are tackled via an industrial PhD. This paper reports our experience, the obstacles, and proposals for generating and maintaining the CORDIS KG.This work was partly funded by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación under project PID2020-117191RBI00 (DOGO4ML).

Incremental schema integration for data wrangling via knowledge graphs
Virtual data integration is the current approach to go for data wrangling in data-driven decision-making. In this paper, we focus on automating schema integration, which extracts a homogenised representation of the data source schemata and integrates them into a global schema to enable virtual data integration. Schema integration requires a set of well-known constructs: the data source schemata and wrappers, a global integrated schema and the mappings between them. Based on them, virtual data integration systems enable fast and on-demand data exploration via query rewriting. Unfortunately, the generation of such constructs is currently performed in a largely manual manner, hindering its feasibility in real scenarios. This becomes aggravated when dealing with heterogeneous and evolving data sources. To overcome these issues, we propose a fully-fledged semi-automatic and incremental approach grounded on knowledge graphs to generate the required schema integration constructs in four main steps: bootstrapping, schema matching, schema integration, and generation of system-specific constructs. We also present NextiaDI, a tool implementing our approach. Finally, a comprehensive evaluation is presented to scrutinize our approach.This work was partly supported by the DOGO4ML project, funded by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación under project PID2020-117191RB-I00, and D3M project, funded by the Spanish Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) under project PDC2021-121195-I00.

Standardization procedure for flow cytometry data harmonization in prospective multicenter studies
One of the most challenging objective for clinical cytometry in prospective multicenter
immunomonitoring trials is to compare frequencies, absolute numbers of leukocyte populations and
further the mean fluorescence intensities of cell markers, especially when the data are generated from
different instruments. Here, we describe an innovative standardization workflow to compare all data
to carry out any large-scale, prospective multicentric flow cytometry analysis whatever the duration,
the number or type of instruments required for the realization of such project
The Impact of Flavour Changing Neutral Gauge Bosons on B->X_s gamma
The branching ratio of the rare decay B->X_s gamma provides potentially
strong constraints on models beyond the Standard Model. Considering a general
scenario with new heavy neutral gauge bosons, present in particular in Z' and
gauge flavour models, we point out two new contributions to the B->X_s gamma
decay. The first one originates from one-loop diagrams mediated by gauge bosons
and heavy exotic quarks with electric charge -1/3. The second contribution
stems from the QCD mixing of neutral current-current operators generated by
heavy neutral gauge bosons and the dipole operators responsible for the B->X_s
gamma decay. The latter mixing is calculated here for the first time. We
discuss general sum rules which have to be satisfied in any model of this type.
We emphasise that the neutral gauge bosons in question could also significantly
affect other fermion radiative decays as well as non-leptonic two-body B
decays, epsilon'/epsilon, anomalous (g-2)_mu and electric dipole moments.Comment: 31 pages, 5 figures; version published on JHEP; added magic QCD

Search for dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks in √s = 13 TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector
A search for weakly interacting massive particle dark matter produced in association with bottom or top quarks is presented. Final states containing third-generation quarks and miss- ing transverse momentum are considered. The analysis uses 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment at √s = 13 TeV in 2015 and 2016. No significant excess of events above the estimated backgrounds is observed. The results are in- terpreted in the framework of simplified models of spin-0 dark-matter mediators. For colour- neutral spin-0 mediators produced in association with top quarks and decaying into a pair of dark-matter particles, mediator masses below 50 GeV are excluded assuming a dark-matter candidate mass of 1 GeV and unitary couplings. For scalar and pseudoscalar mediators produced in association with bottom quarks, the search sets limits on the production cross- section of 300 times the predicted rate for mediators with masses between 10 and 50 GeV and assuming a dark-matter mass of 1 GeV and unitary coupling. Constraints on colour- charged scalar simplified models are also presented. Assuming a dark-matter particle mass of 35 GeV, mediator particles with mass below 1.1 TeV are excluded for couplings yielding a dark-matter relic density consistent with measurements
