Corps, espace, écriture et féminisme dans l'œuvre de Cloti Ricciardi, 1968-1975
No full textTra il 1968 e il 1973 Cloti Ricciardi ha lavorato tanto sul rapporto tra i corpi e lo spazio quanto sulle forme del linguaggio. Alla prima installazione interattiva, Respiro, accompagnata da un testo di Achille Bonito Oliva e dai suoni di Allan Bryant, seguono altri interventi che sollecitano la relazione fisica tra il pubblico e l’opera; contemporaneamente, anche la scrittura guadagna il suo spazio assumendo uno spessore tridimensionale e metallico. Questo doppio livello di ricerca sembra trovare un punto di confluenza nei primi anni 70, quando l’impegno femminista di Ricciardi filtra, per un breve periodo, anche nelle sue opere.Between 1968 and 1973 Cloti Ricciardi worked as much on the relationship between bodies and space as on the forms of language. The first interactive installation, Respiro, accompanied by a text by Achille Bonito Oliva and sounds by Allan Bryant, was followed by other interventions that solicited the physical relationship between the public and the work; at the same time, writing also gained its space by taking on a three-dimensional and metallic thickness. This double level of research seems to find a point of confluence in the early 1970s, when Ricciardi's feminist commitment filters, for a brief period, into her works as well

Smart City Research as an Interdisciplinary Crossroads: A Challenge for Management and Organization Studies
No full textThis paper seeks to define the boundaries of Smart City research and to draw a map of the interdisciplinary community focusing on this emerging issue. To do so, we analysed the texts included in the websites of two major international Conferences on Smart Cities, and we used the Social Network Analysis (SNA) approach to examine a representative sample of 114 publications on Smart Cities. We found that Smart City research was hosted in Architecture and Social Sciences journals in the first place, but since 2007–2008 the interest in this issue boomed among Engineering and Computer Science scholars. Whilst there is a growing number of publications describing many ICT-enabled solutions for enhancing the competitiveness, sustainability and livability of cities, only few studies have addressed the organizational issues implied in such innovations so far. On the other side, our graph describing the interdisciplinary links within the 118 analysed publications shows that management studies occupy a strategic position within the interdisciplinary network of Smart City research. Then, Management and Information Systems scholars are given the opportunity to fill an important gap in an emerging stream of studies
Crowdsourcing platforms as multivocal inscriptions? How open innovation intermediaries (could) address tensions between co-creation actors
No full textThis study explores the role of crowdsourcing platforms as multivocal inscriptions,that is, collaboration-enabling artifacts that can be compatible with the practices, logic,and skills of different categories of actors. The case of a crowdsourcing intermediaryin the fields of industrial design, craftsmanship and interior designconfirms the importance of an intermediary organization that manages the platform and bridges people, “crowdsourcers” and “crowdsourcees”, on the other side. In addition, this study leverages the case study to inductively develop a model of multivocality in crowdsourcing plat-forms.According to this model, a two-level multivocality (operational and stra-tegic) is needed to address the fragilities of crowdsourcing; operational multivo-cality concretely enables collaborative interactions, whilst strategic multivocality aims to link the different goalsand preoccupations ofthe two cath.This study contributes to the exploration of the complex dynamics that shape cooperation in crowdsourcing activity system

Deceiving Faces: When Plastic Surgery Challenges Face Recognition
No full textAn exponential growth of the number of plastic surgery treatments specific to face (from the minimally-invasive ones to the real surgical procedures) has characterized the last two decades and it seems likely that this phenomenon, that has social and cultural meanings and implications, could spread even further in the next years as the average cost of these treatments is lowering and the wish for “beautification” is becoming part of the global esthetics sense. For these reasons, face recognition as an established research topic has a new major challenge: delivering methods capable of high recognition accuracy even in case probe and gallery differ by a surgical alteration of face shape. To this aim is of fundamental importance understanding the range and the extent of the modification produced by the various types of treatments or by a combination of them. We present a survey of the state of the art on this topic, starting by an analysis of the diffusion of the facial plastic surgery and describing the key aspects of each of the most statistically relevant treatments available, resumed by a synthetic table. The paper includes a brief description of all the approaches proposed in the field so far to the best of authors' knowledge and a comparison of the performance reported by the existing methods when applied to the most referenced plastic surgery face dataset to date. A critical discussion of the results achieved so far and an insight about the challenges that still have to be addressed concludes this work
I-Am: Implicitly Authenticate Me Person Authentication on Mobile Devices Through Ear Shape and Arm Gesture
No full textToday, identity verification is required in many common activities, and it is arguably true that most people would like to be authenticated in the easiest and most transparent way, without having to remember a personal identification number. To this regard, this paper presents a multibiometric system based on the observation that the instinctive gesture of responding to a phone call can be used to capture two different biometrics, namely ear and arm gesture, which are complementary due to their, respectively, physical and behavioral nature. We conducted a comprehensive set of experiments aimed at assessing the contribution of each of the two biometrics as well as the advantage in their fusion to the system's overall performance. Experiments also provide objective measurement of both saliency and correlation of data captured by each sensor involved (accelerometer, gyroscope, and camera) according to various features extraction, features matching, and data-fusion techniques. The reports provide evidences about the potential of the proposed system and method for user authentication ``in-the-wild,'' whilst its eventual usage for person identification is also investigated. All of the experiments have been carried out on a specifically built, publicly available ear-arm database, including multibiometric captures of more than 100 subjects performed during different sessions, that represents an additional contribution of this paper
