No full textLove's Paradox: Unraveling the Dynamics of Love and Psychological Intimate Partner Violence Against Women
No full textInternational audienceThis study investigates the connection between psychological intimate partner violence (IPV) and love components in relationships, surveying 1,061 women. Using Sternberg's Triangular Love Scale, participants assessed Intimacy, Commitment, and Passion, revealing four clusters ("Moderate Love", "No Love", "Low Passion" and "Mostly Passion"). ANCOVA analysis, with age as covariate, highlighted significant differences in Intimacy, Commitment, and Passion among clusters, validating the classification. Surprisingly, the "Mostly Passion" cluster exhibited higher severe psychological aggression and specific controlling behaviors than the "Low Passion" group. These findings emphasize the intricate relationship between love components and psychological IPV, suggesting tailored interventions for healthier relationships and victim support

Acting, Planning and Learning
No full textInternational audienceAI's next big challenge is to master the cognitive abilities needed by intelligent agents that perform actions. Such agents may be physical devices such as robots, or they may act in simulated or virtual environments through graphic animation or electronic web transactions. This book is about integrating and automating these essential cognitive abilities: planning what actions to undertake and under what conditions, acting (choosing what steps to execute, deciding how and when to execute them, monitoring their execution, and reacting to events), and learning about ways to act and plan. This comprehensive, coherent synthesis covers a range of state-of-the-art approaches and models – deterministic, probabilistic (including MDP and reinforcement learning), hierarchical, nondeterministic, temporal, spatial, and LLMs – and applications in robotics. The insights it provides into important techniques and research challenges will make it invaluable to researchers and practitioners in AI, robotics, cognitive science, and autonomous and interactive systems
Soficity of free extensions of effective subshifts
No full text6 pretty pictures; fixed minor typosInternational audienceLet be a group and a subgroup. The free extension of an -subshift to is the -subshift whose configurations are those for which the restriction to every coset of is a configuration from . We study the case of for infinite and finitely generated groups and : on the one hand we show that if is nonamenable and has decidable word problem, then the free extension to of any -subshift which is effectively closed is a sofic -subshift. On the other hand we prove that if both and are amenable, there are always -subshifts which are effectively closed by patterns whose free extension to is non-sofic. We also present a few applications in the form of a new simulation theorem and a new class of groups which admit strongly aperiodic SFTs
On Operational Diagnosis for Ground Stations: A Model-Based Approach
No full textInternational audienceChallenges faced in the field of operational diagnosis have grown a deal in the last decade, especially for complex, time-critical systems. In the meantime, although model-based techniques are being used widely to address the design of complex systems, but are not extended to their operation—in particular when dealing with faults: operators can benefit from the use of formal models for system monitoring and diagnostics. We thus propose a methodology to create a new type of Operations Dedicated Model (ODM) from the already existing system design models (functional and dysfunctional), with the use of the Behaviour Tree (BT) formalism. With the assumption that Safety Analysis (SA) models describe dysfunctional aspects of the system—notably via Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), we us Fault Trees (FTs) as an input for the ODM construction. We also demonstrate our proposed approach on a Satellite Ground Station example, and discuss how ODMs can improve systems’ operations
Impulsive switching signals with functional inequalities: Stability analysis using hybrid systems framework
No full textInternational audienceIn this work, we introduce a class of impulsive switching signals described via functional inequalities which govern the switching among different modes with state resets. By choosing the parameters of the inequalities appropriately, we can recover several known classes of switching signals and also allow for signals that depend on time, mode or state of the system. Signals from this class can also be generated online via the use of an auxiliary timer while the dynamical system is running. Via a multiple Lyapunov functions approach, we provide sufficient conditions on the functional parameters of the switching signal which ensure that the equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable (GAS) for autonomous impulsive switched system. In case of inputs, similar methodology is used to provide sufficient conditions for input-to-state stability (ISS) and integral-input-tostate stability (iISS) uniformly over the proposed class of impulsive switching signals. As case studies, we consider switched systems which do not satisfy ISS (respectively, iISS) property for switching signals with arbitrarily large dwell-times but they are shown to be ISS (resp. iISS) for our proposed class of impulsive switchings signals described via functional inequalities.</div
