Terminiers – Chemin de Barate
No full textCe diagnostic au lieu-dit Chemin de Barate à Terminiers (Eure-et-Loir) a été réalisé sur le terrain durant sept jours à partir du 17 octobre 2018. Les résultats de la recherche archéologique sont importants puisqu’ils livrent une occupation des parcelles probablement dès la Préhistoire jusqu’à l’époque actuelle. Ces découvertes sont relativement modestes pour toutes les périodes, hormis pour la Protohistoire où une occupation avec un bâtiment a été reconnue. Tous ces vestiges complètent nos c..
Music Description and Processing: An Approach Based on Petri Nets and XML
No full textMusic description and processing require formal tools which are suitable for the representation of iteration, concurrency, ordering, hierarchy, causality, timing, synchrony, non-determinism. Petri Nets are a tool which allows to describe and process musical objects within both analysis/composition and performing environments. To accomplish this objective, a specific extension known as Music Petri Nets was developed
A Web-based Petri Nets Application To Teach Music Analysis and Composition
No full textMusic Petri nets are a mathematical formalism suitable to express the results of musicological analysis. Being able to infer the structure of a music piece and to represent it through Petri nets is not a trivial task, even for an expert of musicology who is skilled in computational thinking. From this point of view, a computer-based tool can be useful both in the learning phase and in the a-posteriori assessment of the achieved results. After providing the theoretical bases about Petri nets, this paper will describe a web application for music education and dissemination, able to integrate and synchronize the results of music analysis with music-related media content within a single on-line framework
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Web MIDI API: State of the Art and Future Perspectives
No full textThe Web MIDI API is intended to connect a browser app with Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) devices and make them interact. Such an interface deals with exchanging MIDI messages between a browser app and an external MIDI system, either physical or virtual. The standardization by the World Wide Web (W3C) Consortium started about 10 years ago, with a first public draft published on October 2012, and the process is not over yet. Because this technology can pave the way for innovative applications in musical and extra-musical fields, the present paper aims to unveil the main features of the API, remarking its advantages and drawbacks and discussing several applications that could take benefit from its adoption
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
