On the tait dependence of distributions
No full textPour modéliser de la dépendance entre plusieurs variables peut s'appuyer soit sur la corrélation entre les variables, soit sur d'autres mesures, qui déterminent la dépendance des queues de distributions.Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à la dépendance des queues de distributions, en présentant quelques propriétés et résultats.Dans un premier temps, nous obtenons le coefficient de dépendance de queue pour la loi hyperbolique généralisée selon les différentes valeurs de paramètres de cette loi.Ensuite, nous exposons des propriétés et résultats du coefficient de dépendance extrémale dans le cas où les variables aléatoires suivent une loi de Fréchet unitaire.Finalement, nous présentons un des systèmes de gestion de bases de données temps réel (SGBDTR). Le but étant de proposer des modèles probabilistes pour étudier le comportement des transactions temps réel, afin d'optimiser ses performances.The modeling of the dependence between several variables can focus either on the positive or negative correlation between the variables, or on other more effective ways, which determine the tails dependence of distributions.In this thesis, we are interested in the tail dependence of distributions, by presenting some properties and results. Firstly, we obtain the limit tail dependence coefficient for the generalized hyperbolic law according to different parameter values of this law. Then, we exhibit some properties and results of die extremal dependence coefficient in the case where the random variables follow a unitary Fréchet law.Finally, we present a Real Time Database ManagementSystems (RDBMS). The goal is to propose probabilistic models to study thebehavior of real-time transactions, in order to optimize its performance
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe 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
System for Prevention of Vulnerabilities and Detection of Anomalies in Computer Networks
No full textLes outils de prévention des vulnérabilités et de détection des anomalies sont essentiels pour la sécurité des réseaux informatiques. Cette thèse se concentre sur l'utilisation des données du MITRE ATT&CK, des scores CVSS et de la norme ISO 27002:2022 pour automatiser et consolider l'analyse des vulnérabilités et la détection des anomalies. Les objectifs principaux sont : - Diagnostic de vulnérabilité : Identifier les sous-réseaux les plus vulnérables en combinant les données du MITRE ATT&CK, des scores CVSS et de la norme ISO 27002:2022. Pour cela, une base de données appelée Data ISO-MA a été créée. Un algorithme évalue la vulnérabilité des chemins dans le réseau, identifiant ceux les plus à risque. - Détection d’anomalies : Analyser les flux de trafic pour détecter des comportements inhabituels dans les chemins vulnérables. Une approche inspirée du modèle Path-scan de Joshua Neil et al. (2013) a été utilisée. Chaque connexion réseau est modélisée avec un modèle de Markov à 3 états et la statistique du rapport de vraisemblance généralisé (GLRT), permettant de capturer et d'identifier les comportements anormaux.Ces deux outils visent à renforcer la sécurité des réseaux informatiques en fournissant une solution intégrée pour la prévention des vulnérabilités et la détection des anomalies.Tools for vulnerability prevention and anomaly detection are essential for the security of computer networks. This thesis focuses on using MITRE ATT&CK data, CVSS scores, and the ISO 27002:2022 standard to automate and consolidate vulnerability analysis and anomaly detection.The main objectives are: -Vulnerability Diagnosis: Identify the most vulnerable sub-networks by combining MITRE ATT&CK data, CVSS scores, and the ISO 27002:2022 standard. To achieve this, a database called Data ISO-MA was created. An algorithm evaluates the vulnerability of network paths, identifying those most at risk. - Anomaly Detection: Analyze traffic flows to detect unusual behaviors in vulnerable paths. An approach inspired by the Path-scan model introduced by Joshua Neil et al. (2013) was used. Each network connection is modeled with a 3-state Markov model and the Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT), allowing for the capture and identification of abnormal behaviors.These two tools aim to enhance the security of computer networks by providing an integrated solution for vulnerability prevention and anomaly detection
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
