Image-Based Video Search Engine: Feature Extraction
One of the main problems with Instance-Level Image Retrieval in video data is that for query videos with multiple objects of the same instance, extracting features from keyframes of this query video is time consuming. This thesis aims to solve this problem by implementing a Convolutional Neural Network based approach, which significantly reduces the extraction time and increases the accuracy. After analysing multiple methods, Second-Order Loss and Attention for image Retrieval (SOLAR) was found to be the most promising method. SOLAR will be tested based on three performance metrics: the mean average precision, the recall and the extraction time per image. The performance will be evaluated based on a selection of videos and images from a dataset provided by Dr. Andrea Nanetti from the Engineering Historical Memory project. For this dataset SOLAR achieved a mean average precision of 83 %, a recall of 85 % and an extraction time of 0.73 seconds per image. To conclude, SOLAR is specialised in detecting and describing landmarks due to its pre-trained model, but for a more general case the backbone model should be trained differently which will increase the accuracy. Future work could also include speed improvement by looking at object detection methods.ttps://github.com/aron-hoogeveen/ibvse Link to the codebase (GitHub)Bachelor Graduation ProjectElectrical Engineerin
Raymond Aron: ‘La lutte de classes’
Published in 1964, the result of one of Aron’s four cycles of university lectures dedicated to ‘industrial society’ between 1955 and 1958, La lutte de classes is – as the author himself admitted – one of his best works from a scientific point of view. In the book, the concept of ‘class struggle’, used by Marxists as the main interpretative key of the economic and social transformations generated by industrialism, undergoes a radical critique. According to Aron, it was a political, ideological and metaphysical formula, which was not very useful from the point of view of sociological research. In order to understand the structure and the dynamics of industrial societies, it is instead more useful to reflect on the concepts of ruling class or ruling minority and the way how, within such societies, power is distributed, as well as how the relationships between social groups are structured. What Aron offers in this book is therefore an original re-elaboration of the theory of the élites
Raymond Aron et l'horreur des chiffres
Alain Guerreau. Raymond Aron and the Fear of Figures.
Despite several recent publications, studies on the foundations of historical research in France are still dominated by the works of Raymond Aron. The author examines Raymond Aron's thinking on the role of statistics in historical research, the underlying premises involved in Aron's analysis, its strengths and weaknesses..Alain Guerreau. Raymond Aron et l'horreur des chiffres.
La réflexion sur les fondements de l'activité historienne reste dominée en France, malgré quelques ouvrages récents, par les travaux de Raymond Aron. On analyse la manière dont R. Aron a compris et évalué
l'aspect statistique des recherches historiques, et l'on montre les présupposés qui ont conditionné cette réflexion aronienne et en marquent la faiblesse.Guerreau Alain. Raymond Aron et l'horreur des chiffres. In: Histoire & Mesure, 1986 volume 1 - n°1. Varia. pp. 51-73
The articulation of Liberalism and Democracy in Aron and Ortega y Gasset
En este artículo se analizan las diferentes formas de ver la relación entre democracia y liberalismo que tienen Raymond Aron y Ortega y Gasset. Las perspectivas de cada uno respecto a esa relación se encuentran determinadas por el contexto socio-histórico en el que ambos formularon sus teorías. Ortega en los años 30 observa el peligro que corren las democracias liberales por el auge de los movimientos fascistas y bolchevique y ve una deriva de los Estados hacia el totalitarismo, lo que le impulsa a formular una nueva idea de liberalismo. Aron se encuentra, después dela Segunda GuerraMundial, con un panorama geopolítico en el que dominan dos bloques ideológicamente antagónicos, EEUU yla URSS, que le servirán para presentar dos modelos de democracia, en el primero hay libertad de partidos y en el segundo hay un partido único. Para el autor francés, será el primero el que mejor va a cumplir el ideal democrático.This article analyzes the different ways to see the relationship between democracy and liberalism that Raymond Aron and Ortega y Gasset have. Their visions about that relationship are determined by the socio-historical context in which both of them formulated their theories. Ortega in the 30’s observes the danger that threatens the liberal democracies because of the increase of fascist and bolshevik movements and sees a trend of the States to totalitarianism, which impulse him to formulate a new idea of liberalism. Aron deals, after de Second World War, with a geopolitical view that is dominated by two blocks ideologically opposed, USA and USSR, which he will use to propose two models of democracy, in the first there’s freedom of parties and in the second there’s a unique party. For the French author the democratic ideal is better fulfill by the first model
Raymond Aron : l’itinéraire d’un sociologue libéral
Dans cet article, l'auteur tente de retracer dans un premier temps, les fondements philosophiques de la sociologie de R. Aron, avant d'examiner dans un deuxième temps, sa sociologie proprement dite. Abordant par la suite la critique des idéologies qui est indissociable à la fois de sa philosophie et de sa sociologie, il conclut par un rappel de la contribution et de la place que R. Aron occupe au sein de la sociologie contemporaine. Critique plus que théoricien, Aron apparaît, aux termes de cet article, comme la conscience libérale de la sociologie française.In this paper, the author first traces the philosophical foundations of Raymond Aron's sociology, and then examines his sociology itself. A discussion follows on the critical analysis of ideologies which is inseparable both from Aron's philosophy and his sociology. The paper concludes with a reminder of Aron's contribution to contemporary sociology and his place within it. More of a critic than a theoretician, Aron appears, according to this paper, as the liberal conscience of French sociology.En este artículo, el autor trata, en primer lugar de exponer los fundamentos filosóficos de la sociología de R. Aron, para en segundo lugar, examinar su sociología propiamente dicha. Finalmente analiza la crítica de las ideologías que son indisociables a la vez de su filosofía como de su sociología. Concluye recordando la contribución y el lugar que ocupa R. Aron en el seno de la sociología contemporánea. Mas crítico que teo'rico, R. Aron aparece, según este artículo, como la conciencia liberal de la sociología francesa

Philosophy of power balance or belligerent peace according to Raymond Aron
Presented article puts mind to the thinking of Raymond Aron (1905–1983). Author is focused on Aron\u27s complexive method by joining sociology, history or philosophy of history for describing international relations in four decades of Cold War how it developped from 40\u27s to 80\u27s of 20th century. Aron\u27s analyses are calling by himself as "history of presence". He described international political strategy from realistic theory of international relations. Aron studied the principles of cold war, relations between USA and USSR, nuclear armament, balance of power in bi-polar international relations, power strategic analysis and belligerent peace. He analysed international relations when the world-powers don\u27t attack straightly and prefer conflicts in regions (sub-systems)
Aron Trainin
Professor Aron Trainin (1883–1957), an outstanding Russian and Soviet criminal law scholar, has played a leading role in academic support of the Soviet Union’s team in Nuremberg and contributed to the drafting of the IMT Charter and Judgment. His writings to a large extent shaped the Soviet approach to international criminal law. The chapter addresses Trainin’s biography and follows the major steps in his academic career from its beginning in tsarist Russia to its the peak, when Trainin held the positions of associate member of Soviet Academy of Sciences and professor at Moscow University. The chapter traces the sources of Trainin’s interest in international criminal law and addresses the scholar’s contribution to the ICL. The author focuses specifically on two areas, where the impact of Trainin’s was significant – a legal justification for crimes against peace, and the concept of complicity
