The symbols in the poetry of ruben dario
No full text碩士本論文主要分為三個章節，第一章，何為象徵符號？本章節主要藉由象徵理論學家，威爾伯 (Wilbur Marshall Urban)、弗萊(Northrop Frye)、托多羅夫(Tzvetan Todorov)、賽洛特(Juan-Eduardo Cirlot)以及其他學者的相關文獻解釋象徵符號的定義以及象徵符號在文學作品中的定義。
第二章針對達里歐的生平、作品以及達里歐在現實主義時期的重要性為論述重點。筆者根據達里歐的生平以及生長年代來了解他的作品特色，達里歐一生多采多姿，尤其感情方面更為豐富，這些人生際遇皆影響達里歐的寫作風格。達里歐不只是詩人，也是歷史的見證者，從他的作品中可以看到政治歷史的變化趨勢。達里歐著作極為豐富，筆者在本章節挑選三本可以代表達里歐的作品：《藍》(Azul)、《每日詩》(Prosas profanes)以及《生命與希望之歌》(Cantos de vida y esperanza)。達里歐與現實主義有著密不可分的關係，他的寫作風格不僅受到現實主義作家的影響，同時也是影響現實主義作家的重要人士之一。
第三章筆者不僅針對達里歐的詩集作品分析，同時也分析其散文作品，如《稀奇》(Los raros)。筆者將經常出現於達里歐作品中的象徵符號分為三個部分：顏色符號、禽鳥符號和寶石符號。顏色符號部分主要分析的顏色為藍色、綠色、白色以及黑色。禽鳥符號則針對天鵝、鴿子、孔雀和老鷹。而最後的寶石符號則以珠寶、寶石、鑽石、琥珀、黃金和水晶為主要分析內容。
最後筆者希望藉由這篇論文的研究，能讓大家了解象徵符號經由作家的詮釋，即使相同的符號，也擁有不同的意義。此外也希望大家能透過此篇論文認識文學史上重要的拉丁美洲作家盧本達里歐先生。In this thesis we explore definitions of symbols and the life of the author in the book of Ruben Dario. Dario is an author who emphasized the importance of the use of symbols though out his books. Therefore we might consider him as a master specialized in writing with symbols.
We divide the thesis into three chapters. In the first chapter, we give details to the definition of the symbols. According to scholars like Urban, Frye, Todorov and Cirlot, we are able to understand symbols in forms of signs, images and words. The concept of the symbols is relatively comprehensive, taking into consideration that a symbol is not always a sign; in fact, it is much more than a sign.
In the second chapter, we describe Ruben Dario about his life, literary works and the times when he lived. His life was interesting, colorful and varied. He was not only a poet but a public figure, having been an ambassador of Nicaragua in Spain. Dario wrote many pieces and each was important to him. Based on his narration, there are three books that can represent Ruben Dario, Azul, Prosas profanas and Cantos de vida y esperanza.
Dario was the master of Modernism, mainly because of the great influence of Latin America. Not only did Ruben Dario influence the poets of Modernism but was influenced by other poets in the same period.
In the last chapter we examine the symbols in the poetry of Dario and we divided the symbols into three parts: the colors, birds and precious stones. The first part, we examine the colors. There are blue, green, and black. In the second part, we deal with the symbols of birds, including swans, pigeons, peacocks and eagles. And in the last part, we talk about precious stones. We analyze the symbols of agate, ruby, diamond, crystal and gold. Finally, we end up with the conclusions and bibliography.INTRODUCCION 1

Circadian course of the P300 ERP in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - implications for brain-computer interfaces (BCI)
No full textAbstract
Background
Accidents or neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) can lead to progressing, extensive, and complete paralysis leaving patients aware but unable to communicate (locked-in state). Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) based on electroencephalography represent an important approach to establish communication with these patients. The most common BCI for communication rely on the P300, a positive deflection arising in response to rare events. To foster broader application of BCIs for restoring lost function, also for end-users with impaired vision, we explored whether there were specific time windows during the day in which a P300 driven BCI should be preferably applied.
Methods
The present study investigated the influence of time of the day and modality (visual vs. auditory) on P300 amplitude and latency. A sample of 14 patients (end-users) with ALS and 14 healthy age matched volunteers participated in the study and P300 event-related potentials (ERP) were recorded at four different times (10, 12\ua0am, 2, & 4\ua0pm) during the day.
Results
Results indicated no differences in P300 amplitudes or latencies between groups (ALS patients v. healthy participants) or time of measurement. In the auditory condition, latencies were shorter and amplitudes smaller as compared to the visual condition.
Conclusion
Our findings suggest applicability of EEG/BCI sessions in patients with ALS throughout normal waking hours. Future studies using actual BCI systems are needed to generalize these findings with regard to BCI effectiveness/efficiency and other times of day
Ruben Santiago (Art forum)
No full textRuben Santiago’s work scrutinises the mechanisms by which collective memory is formed and the consensual granting of its symbolic value. Through installations, site-specific projects, online mechanisms, video, objects and publications, Santiago critically analyses and exposes how networks of power are distributed in tandem with the regulations and legitimising systems of control in contemporary societies.
Strategically embracing long-term processes and ongoing methodologies, his practice – which he sees as an extended experience – becomes a negotiation tool in the artist’s active role in seeking to contest and recalibrate definitions of the real. Such recalibrations have taken shape in Drainage (2010) – a site-specific intervention commissioned by CGAC to be part of Santiago’s solo exhibition Cálculo which also included Non-computable incident (2010) – a work where Santiago was allowed to change the chemical composition of the public water in a city with 100,000 inhabitants. Non-computable incident questioned the potentiality of culture and subjectivity to achieve social transformation, and how these modes and identities can be put above public health issues when political interests are involved.
Ruben Santiago, was born 1974 in Sarria, Galicia and lives and works in Madrid, Spain
Real estate developers as circular service providers
No full textPurpose: The implementation of Product-Service-Systems (PSSs) in real estate development project could support the shift of the real estate sector towards a more Circular Economy. With the implemen-tation of these system responsibilities of products remain with the suppliers of these products. This incentives suppliers to design products which fit in closed material loops. Much attention was paid by scientists and practitioners about the implementation of these PSSs in practice. However, a knowledge gap still exists about how Product-Service-Systems function on an operational level in real estate devel-opment projects. Therefore, actors in the real estate sector do not know how to implement PSSs in real estate development projects. The central role of the service provider (i.e. former real estate developer) is hereby seen as important since this actor that would manage the overall performance of a servitized building and steers the development of it. The objective of this research is therefore to (1) conceptual-ize the functioning of circular Product-Service-Systems on an operational level and (2) develop conceptu-al working models that could be used by real estate developers to perform the role of the circular ser-vice provider. Research question: How could a circular service provider interact with service suppliers and customers in order to implement circular Product-Service-Systems in real estate development projects?Methodology: The research process consisted of fours steps. The first step relates to the development of concepts. An explorative literature review and several explorative interviews were conducted within this step. The second step comprehended a systematic literature review in order to gain insight in exist-ing theories. The third steps related to practices, whereby three case studies were conducted and ana-lysed. The fourth step related to the synthesis, hereby theories were built around four business tactics, which in the end led to the generation of a proposition in the form of empirical lessons.Findings: As Product-Service-Systems aim at meeting end-users needs, service value is created over time. This implies that a mindset change within the real estate sector is needed in order to servitise real estate development projects. Organizations in the real estate sector should hereby aim at long-term value creation for customers and collaborate with partners. Actors within the supply chain should opt for equal partnership and form networks of organizations around a specific goal. Conclusion: The role of the service provider is hereby to find the right partnerships and ensure incen-tives will be directed towards thig long-term service delivery. The form and content of these partner-ships is essential in order to implement Product-Service-Systems successfully. The service provider could establish this by using the developed 'Interaction Model'.Limitations: Three case studies from one real estate development company have been analysed as not many servitized project are available. The validity of findings is increased by using different sources of data and research techniques (triangulation).Architecture, Urbanism and Building Science

Soft biometrics and their application in person recognition at a distance
No full textSoft biometric information extracted from a human body (e.g., height, gender, skin color, hair color, and so on) is ancillary information easily distinguished at a distance but it is not fully distinctive by itself in recognition tasks. However, this soft information can be explicitly fused with biometric recognition systems to improve the overall recognition when confronting high variability conditions. One significant example is visual surveillance, where face images are usually captured in poor quality conditions with high variability and automatic face recognition systems do not work properly. In this scenario, the soft biometric information can provide very valuable information for person recognition. This paper presents an experimental study of the benefits of soft biometric labels as ancillary information based on the description of human physical features to improve challenging person recognition scenarios at a distance. In addition, we analyze the available soft biometric information in scenarios of varying distance between camera and subject. Experimental results based on the Southampton multibiometric tunnel database show that the use of soft biometric traits is able to improve the performance of face recognition based on sparse representation on real and ideal scenarios by adaptive fusion rules
Real-time proximal gradient method for linear MPC
No full textThis paper presents a real-time implementation of the proximal gradient method (PGM) in a model predictive control (MPC) setting. In each control update only one iteration of the PGM is performed, while a next update is warm-started using the solution of the previous one. When applied to linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with simple input constraints, the resulting control law becomes extremely simple and offers possibilities to obtain fast control rates even on resource-constrained hardware. The paper provides a proof of closed-loop stability of the real-time PGM applied to LTI systems. A numerical simulation example validates the resulting closed-loop performance.sponsorship: This work benefits from KU Leuven-BOF PFV/10/002 Centre of Excellence: Optimization in Engineering (OPTEC); from the project G0C4515N of the Research Foundation-Flanders (FWO-Flanders); and from the KU Leuven Research project C14/15/067: B-spline based certificates of positivity with applications in engineering.
