Queneau e Sergio Solmi
No full textIl contributo è il risultato di una serie di ricerche, condotte nel marzo 2018, presso la Fondazione «Centro di studi storico-letterari Natalino Sapegno – ONLUS» che ha sede a Morgex (AO). Muovendo dallo spoglio della corrispondenza inviata da Italo Calvino a Sergio Solmi, presentiamo qui uno studio della traduzione italiana della Petite Cosmogonie Portative di Raymond Queneau. La nostra “lettura” della corrispondenza ha considerato soprattutto alcuni problemi relativi all’ambiente di cultura dal quale trasse origine la traduzione di Solmi e sul quale ebbe ad operare in profondità la filosofia di Queneau e la cultura di Calvino
An Investigation on the Dynamics of Direct-Manipulation Editors for Mathematics
No full textMathematical expressions are pieces of structured information that could benefit from direct-manipulation approaches for document authoring. Yet, not only there is disagreement on the behaviors of authoring tools, but also these behaviors are often ill-designed and poorly implemented. This situation leads to dissatisfaction amid users who prefer more classical editing approaches. In this paper we compare the behaviors of several state-of-the-art editors for mathematical content and we try to synthesize a set of rules and principles to make the authoring experience pleasant and effective

Advances in CUB models with application to the evaluation of natural parks in the Dolomites
No full textThe Cub model and the permutation test on covariates of this model were applied to evaluate the customer satisfaction of tourists who visited the natural parks of the Dolomites on the north of Italy
Non-parametric two-stage active control testing method for non-inferiority tests
No full textOne of statistics’ most important application fields in medicine is the comparison of different populations, and in particular the evaluation of the differences between the effects of two medical treatments. In this work we deal with a specific issue directly related to this application field, i.e. the non-inferiority test. Placebocontrolled trials are in fact ideal to evaluate medical treatment effectiveness, but they are ethically justified only if no standard treatment exists. In these cases activecontrolled trials are generally more appropriate, and in particular the non-inferiority trial. The Two-Stage Active Control Testing (TACT) method is suitable for evaluating differences between a new treatment and the control. Here we propose a permutation version of this technique that may be used when usual distributional assumptions do not hold
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
Customer satisfaction survey on Passito wine with the application of a new approach for modelling discrete choices
No full textA new method for modelling discrete choices, named Cub model, has been applied to a customer satisfaction survey about Passito, a typical italian wine, to study feeling and uncerteinty of the respondents
"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
