How Did I Get to Princess Margaret? (And How Did I Get Her to the World Wide Web?)
No full textThe paper explores the growing use of
tools from the arts and humanities for investigation
and dissemination of social science research.
Emerging spaces for knowledge transfer, such as
the World Wide Web, are explored as outlets for
"performative social science". Questions of ethnics
and questions of evaluation which emerge from
performative social science and the use of new
technologies are discussed. Contemporary thinking
in aesthetics is explored to answer questions
of evaluation. The use of the Internet for productions
is proposed as supporting the collective
elaboration of meaning supported by Relational
Aesthetics.
One solution to the ethical problem of performing
the narrations of others is the use of the writer's
own story as autoethnography. The author queries
autoethnography's tendency to tell "sad" stories and
proposes an amusing story, exemplified by "The
One about Princess Margaret" (see Appendix).
The conclusion is reached that the free and open
environment of the Internet sidelines the usual
tediousness of academic publishing and begins to
explore new answers to questions posed about
the evaluation and ethics of performative social
science
Identification of author profiles through social networks
No full textThe aim of this paper is to compile dictionaries of slang words, abbreviations, contractions, and emoticons to help the pre-processing of texts published in social networks. The use of these dictionaries is intended to improve the results of the tasks related to data obtained from these platforms. Therefore, a hypothesis was evaluated in the task of identifying author profiles (author profiling).Silva, JesúsMaria Santodomingo, Nicolas EliasRomero, LigiaJorge, MarisolHerrera, MaritzaPineda Lezama, Omar Bonerg
Seismic Interferometry applied to the data of the SEIS seismometer aboard the NASA Discovery InSight mission : Crustal structure and monitoring
No full textLe sismomètre SEIS (Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure) a été déposé à la surface de la planète Mars le 19 décembre 2018 dans le cadre de la mission NASA Discovery InSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport). Ses objectifs sont d'explorer la structure interne et l'activité sismique de Mars.Dans cette thèse nous analysons les données transmisent par SEIS sous le prisme de l'interférométrie sismique. Cette technique tire parti des propriétés des champs diffus tels que la coda sismique ou le bruit ambiant pour reconstruire la réponse impulsionnelle du milieu par corrélation d'enregistrements sismiques. L'exceptionnelle sensibilité du sismomètre SEIS rend possible l'étude des caractéristiques du bruit ambiant martien, qui nous étaient inconnues jusqu'alors.En comparant des fonctions d'auto-corrélations de bruit et de coda d'événements sismiques martiens nous avons identifié deux régions du spectre où s'observe le bruit microsismique martien.Une amplification locale du sol autour de 2.4 Hz présente une structure spectrale que nous avons pu relier à la structure crustale de Mars. La réponse en réflexion reconstruite par auto-corrélation a permis de détecter deux interfaces crustales, à ~9 et ~24 km de profondeur, cohérentes avec les fonctions récepteur.Nous montrons également que les composantes horizontales du sismomètre contiennent la signature d'une variation saisonnière des vitesses sismiques dans leurs spectres à hautes fréquences (> 5 Hz). Ces variations, observées également dans la coda de multiplets sismiques hautes fréquences, ont pu être reliées à une réponse thermo-élastique de la subsurface sous l'effet des changements saisonnier du forçage thermique solaire. Cette observation fournie une opportunité de sonder les paramètres thermiques et élastiques de la subsurface martienne jusqu'à plus de 20 mètres de profondeur.The Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure (SEIS) seismometer was deposited on the surface of Mars on December 19, 2018 as part of the NASA Discovery InSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport) mission. Its objectives are to explore the internal structure and seismic activity of Mars.In this thesis we analyze the data transmitted by SEIS in the light of seismic interferometry. This technique takes advantage of the properties of diffuse fields such as seismic coda or ambient noise to recover the impulse response of the medium by correlation of seismic records.The exceptional sensitivity of the SEIS seismometer makes it possible to study the characteristics of the Martian ambient noise, which were unknown to us until now.By comparing autocorrelation functions of seismic ambient noise and Marsquake coda we have identified two regions of the spectrum where Martian microseismic noise is observed.A local ground amplification around 2.4 Hz presents a spectral structure that we were able to link to the crustal structure of Mars. The reflection response reconstructed by auto-correlation allowed us to detect two crustal interfaces, at ~9 and ~24 km depth, consistent with receiver functions analysis.We also show that the horizontal components of the seismometer contain the signature of a seasonal variation of seismic velocities in their high frequency spectra (> 5 Hz).These variations, also observed in the coda of high frequency seismic multiplets, could be related to a thermo-elastic response of the subsurface under the effect of seasonal changes in solar thermal forcing.This observation provides an opportunity to probe the thermal and elastic parameters of the Martian subsurface to a depth of over 20 meters

Sur les traces de Nicolas Bouvier, sur des cailloux atlantiques
No full textThe author of this travelogue follows in the footsteps of Nicolas Bouvier on the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland. By surveying the almost deserted island of Inishmore in the middle of winter, he seeks to understand what fascinated the author of The Way of the World on these Atlantic stones twenty years earlier.L'auteur de ce récit de voyage suit les traces de Nicolas Bouvier sur les îles d'Aran au large de l'Irlande.

#### INTRODUCTION ####
This text files aims to explain the procedure to perform both the data handling and the analyses
in the paper:
#### Description of the files:
#1. Datasets
PhenoAsreml.txt contains the observed values for the phenotypes described in the paper
PhenoAsreml_scaled.txt contains the scaled (mean of zero and standard deviation of one) of the same phenotypes. THIS DATASET IS USED FOR BIVARIATE ANALYSES WITH 2x2 STRATA
PhenoAsreml_scaledLong.txt contains the same information, organized differently because the dataset is reshaped from wide to long format.

#2. Codes and parameter files
BEDERE_2023_RScript_handlingdata_Long.R is an R code to reshape PhenoAsreml_scaled into PhenoAsreml_scaledLong and to subset it to generate PhenoAsreml_scaledLong_3x3strata for instance
BEDERE_2023_ASREMLScript_bivariate_2x2strata.as (as well as ...3x2strata.as and ...3x3strata.as) are ASReml parameter files used to state the data, model specification and post-hoc calculation to ASReml
Please, note that some variance components have been fixed in some analyses when the algorithm was struggling to converge.
BEDERE_2023_RScript_BartlettTest.R is an R code to perform the Bartlett test.
