L’enseignement scientifique, entre émancipation et asservissement ? by Denise Orange-Ravachol

“…We show that the debates can allow each student to open up to other possible explanations, and thus to free himself/herself from his/her own production while bringing it into a common pool of ideas (acculturation/emancipation). But this movement towards emancipation is not immediate because students can confine themselves to their prejudices. …”

Dynamic heterogeneous scheduling method based on Stackelberg game model in container cloud by Wei ZENG, Hongchao HU, Lingshu LI, Shumin HUO

“…Container technology promotes the rapid development of cloud computing with its flexible and efficient features, but it also introduces security threats such as co-resident attacks, escape attacks, and common mode attacks.In response to these security threats, a dynamic heterogeneous scheduling method based on Stackelberg game in the container cloud was proposed.First, a heterogeneous mirrored resource pool is constructed to suppress the spread of attacks based on common-mode vulnerabilities on the cloud.Then, the offensive and defense interaction process is modeled as a Stackelberg game model.Finally, the offensive and defensive model is analyzed, and the system scheduling problem is modeled as a mixed integer non-linear programming problem to solve the system's optimal scheduling strategy.Experiments show that the proposed method can improve the defense effect of the cloud platform and reduce the system defense overhead.…”

CRF combined with ShapeBM shape priors for image labeling by Hao WANG, Lijun GUO, Yadong WANG, Rong ZHANG

“…Conditional random field (CRF) is a powerful model for image labeling,it is particularly well-suited to model local interactions among adjacent regions (e.g.superpixels).However,CRF doesn't consider the global constraint of objects.The overall shape of the object is used as a global constraint,the ShapeBM can be taken advantage of modeling the global shape of object,and then a new labeling model that combined the above two types of models was presented.The combination of CRF and ShapeBM was based on the superpixels,through the pooling technology was wed to establish the corresponding relationship between the CRF superpixel layer and the ShapeBM input layer.It enhanced the effectiveness of the combination of CRF and ShapeBM and improved the accuracy of the labeling.The experiments on the Penn-Fudan Pedestrians dataset and Caltech-UCSD Birds 200 dataset demonstrate that the model is more effective and efficient than others.…”

GAN-based unsupervised domain adaptive person re-identification by Shengsheng ZHENG, Haibing YIN, Xiaofeng HUANG, Tianjie ZHANG

“…Aiming at the problem that the inaccurate clustering in the unsupervised domain adaptive pedestrian re-recognition results in low network recognition accuracy, an unsupervised domain adaptive pedestrian re-recognition method based on generative confrontation network was proposed.Firstly, the CNN model was optimized by using the batch normalization layer after the pooling layer, deleting a fully connected layer and adopting the Adam optimizer.Secondly, the cluster error was analyzed and the important parameter in the cluster was decided based on minimum error rate Bayesian decision theory.Finally, the generative adversarial network was utilized to adjust the cluster.These steps effectively improved the recognition accuracy of unsupervised domain adaptive person re-identification.In the case of the source domain Market-1501 and the target domain DukeMTMC-reID, experimental results show that mAP and Rank-1 can reach 53.7% and 71.6%, respectively.…”
