Attraction and Selection in Cultural Evolution – ASCE
In recent years, important theoretical advances have clarified the relationship between biological and cultural evolution and raised the question of the balance between selection and directed transformations occurring during transmission. Ideally, transmission chains experiments, in which the result
Automatic Extraction of Geolinguistic Atlas Content and Spatial Analysis: application to Dialectology – ECLATS
Dialectology addresses the study of the linguistic features of languages having a strong oral tradition such as local dialects. These linguistic features are diverse : phonetic, morphosyntactic, lexical, semantic or prosodic. They are also context-dependant: they evolve according to (geographical) s
Avant-première de "L’ArchéoConcert : le passé a des oreilles à Notre-Dame de Paris"
Réalisé dans le cadre du chantier scientifique de Notre-Dame coordonné par le CNRS et le ministère de la Culture, ce film repose sur les travaux du projet ANR PHEND - The past has ears at Notre-Dame coordonné par Brian F.G. Katz, chercheur CNRS en acoustique à l’Institut Jean le Rond d’Alembert (CNR
BEYOND THE SCENE Supporting apparatus and career path in society of choreographic artists and circus artists in professional transition – S2S
Domains of the aesthetic sensibility and physical excellence, the professions of dancer and circus artists question with strength the conditions of professional longevity. These kinds of artists know similar difficulties to those of others professions (like sportsmen, models, etc.), but the modaliti
BIO Medical research Imaging SemanTic data management – Biomist
With the GIN research team we will focus on the neuro-functional imaging field as a testbed for our project. Besides the images (2D, 3D, 4D), we will manage every type of data required such as demographic data, behavioral test results and as a new topic in this field: genetic information. A special
BIOdiversity and ecosystem functioning of MANgroves in French Guiana: prospects for ecOsystem management in the Amazonian system – BIOMANGO
Mangrove forests, consisting of trees with feet in the sea, providing irreplaceable socio-economic and ecological services. The Guianese mangroves, being adapted to sedimentary recurrent disturbances, constitute 70% of French mangroves. Biomango, a multidisciplinary international project proposes (i
BIological networks, RaDiotherapy and Structures – BIRDS
Proton therapy is a type of external radiation therapy based on proton beams. The main benefit of this technique lies on the following proton property : protons of a given energy share a predictable common penetration distance in the patient (no proton penetrates further this distance). This propert
Babylonian Archives (20th-17th century B.C.). Phase 2 – ARCHIBAB-2
Mesopotamia between 2000 and 1600 B.C. experienced a real boom in the use of writing that resulted in the multiplication of archives and a transformation of their nature. The latter are no longer limited to large organisations (temples and palaces) as in the Third millennium, but they are now found
Bayesian hierarchical inversion for mass spectrometry. Application to discovery and validation of new protein biomarkers. – BHI-PRO
The general scientific and economic goals are to improve the efficiency of the discovery, validation and marketing of protein biomarkers. Mass spectrometry (MS) based studies significantly shorten the delay with respect to standard immunoassays approaches and give directly access to multidimensional
Bayesian learning of expensive models, with applications to cell biology – Baccarat
Biologists develop intricate models of cells, ecologists model the dynamics of ecosystems at a world scale. A single evaluation of such complex models takes minutes or hours on today’s hardware and fitting probabilistic models to biological data can require millions of serial evaluations. Monte Carl
