El artesano y el artista : aspectos de la iconografía de San José by Pierre Civil

“…Au -delà du sentimentalisme appuyé des scènes représentées, l’humble métier du saint se charge de claires résonances idéologiques, conformes au message de l’Église.Parallèlement, se manifeste un intérêt nouveau pour le thème de saint Luc peignant le portrait de la Vierge. La figuration du patron des peintres, le pinceau à la main, vient appuyer la revendication corporatiste de la défense de l’artiste et l’affirmation du caractère intellectuel de la peinture.Ces complexes variations sur le travail des deux saints font se croiser bon nombre d’images significatives (œuvres du Greco, Ribalta, Carducho, Murillo, Valdès Leal...) et de textes célébratifs (traités religieux, sermons, comedias ou poésies). …”

On Chinese Translations of Colloquial Russian Pragmatic Approximator Markers: Analyzing Speech Patterns from Literary Fiction by Xiang Yanan, Natalia V. Bogdanova-Beglarian

And in most cases (78.3%), the marker is translated with meaningful words, closest to the examined markers being some introductory words denoting approximation (47.8 %), and remotest — literal translations characterized by complete loss of meaning (4.3 %). …”

Analysis of Feature Extraction and Anti-Interference of Face Image under Deep Reconstruction Network Algorithm by Jin Yang, Yuxuan Zhao, Shihao Yang, Xinxin Kang, Xinyan Cao, Xixin Cao

“…To explore the anti-interference performance of convolutional neural network (CNN) reconstructed by deep learning (DL) framework in face image feature extraction (FE) and recognition, in the paper, first, the inception structure in the GoogleNet network and the residual error in the ResNet network structure are combined to construct a new deep reconstruction network algorithm, with the random gradient descent (SGD) and triplet loss functions as the model optimizer and classifier, respectively, and it is applied to the face recognition in Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW) face database. Then, the portrait pyramid segmentation and local feature point segmentation are applied to extract the features of face images, and the matching of face feature points is achieved using Euclidean distance and joint Bayesian method. …”

El santo, el trabajo y el amo, en tres obras de Lope sobre san Isidro by Françoise Cazal

“…Le dramaturge dessine même, dans les relations d’Isidro avec ses petits camarades de jeu (parmi lesquels se trouve son futur maître) le rapport à l’oraison et au travail qui sera le sien dans la suite de l’histoire, le portrait d’Isidro enfant étant, en quelque sorte, un portrait anticipé du saint tel que la légende le dépeint à l’âge adulte.On montre ici comment, par un savant maniement, dans les dialogues, des relations interpersonnelles et de l’interlocution, Lope de Vega réussit à éviter les deux écueils principaux qui le guettaient dans cette dramatisation : le risque de froisser les aristocrates de son public en donnant un rôle trop négatif à Iván de Vargas, et le risque de faire perdre à la figure du saint son indispensable humilité, dans le conflit social qui l’oppose à son maître.…”

A genome-wide association study identifies five loci influencing facial morphology in Europeans. by Fan Liu, Fan Liu, Fedde van der Lijn, Claudia Schurmann, Gu Zhu, M Mallar Chakravarty, Pirro G Hysi, Andreas Wollstein, Oscar Lao, Marleen de Bruijne, M Arfan Ikram, Aad van der Lugt, Fernando Rivadeneira, André G Uitterlinden, Albert Hofman, Wiro J Niessen, Georg Homuth, Greig de Zubicaray, Katie L McMahon, Paul M Thompson, Amro Daboul, Ralf Puls, Katrin Hegenscheid, Liisa Bevan, Zdenka Pausova, Sarah E Medland, Grant W Montgomery, Margaret J Wright, Carol Wicking, Stefan Boehringer, Timothy D Spector, Tomáš Paus, Nicholas G Martin, Reiner Biffar, Manfred Kayser

“…Phenotyping of facial shape features was based on landmark data obtained from three-dimensional head magnetic resonance images (MRIs) and two-dimensional portrait images. We identified five independent genetic loci associated with different facial phenotypes, suggesting the involvement of five candidate genes--PRDM16, PAX3, TP63, C5orf50, and COL17A1--in the determination of the human face. …”
