Universalisme, différence et invisibilité.Essai sur la notion de race dans l’histoire de la France contemporaine  by Tyler Stovall

“…Pourtant, affirme-t-il, à partir de la domination par la France de populations noires dans le cadre des colonies, la question de la dimension raciale de l’identité française s’est trouvée posée et elle est présente au sein de toutes les pensées du social des Lumières à l’époque contemporaine. Stovall met notamment en évidence les liens étroits qui se sont noués sous des formes diverses, entre l’idée de nation et celle de race, notamment dans ce qu’il appelle le « paradoxe du républicanisme impérial ». …”

Archiver l’ethnographie ? Entre impossibilité et nécessité by David Zeitlyn

“…Je m’intéresserai aux responsabilités qu’ont les chercheurs envers différents groupes et à la façon dont elles se contredisent. Je mettrai en lumière les utilisations bénéfiques, à long terme, des données de terrain issues de mes propres travaux menés chez les Mambila au Cameroun et au Nigeria, grâce notamment à une utilisation inédite de certains documents d’archives (aucun accord n’ayant donc été demandé pour les exploiter). …”

Greenness, blueness and whiteness evaluated rapid Attenuated Total Reflection/ Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy method for piper nigrum Samples Coupled with multivariate ana... by Rinkal N Patel, Kunjal L Vegad, Ruchik V Mistry, Nikunj D Patel

“…Chemometric methods like Principal Component Analysis was used for quality assessment of piper nigrum by evaluating the differences in market samples. 25 important FTIR peaks responsible for complete variation for routine analysis of piper nigrum samples were identified and based on score plot of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), outliers were distinguished from the authenticated piper nigrum sample. …”

Centroid-AME: An open-source software for estimating avian migration trajectories using population centroids movement in the annual cycle by Shi Feng, Alice C. Hughes, Qinmin Yang, Leyi Li, Chao Li

“…To address the inherent spatial and temporal biases of observations, the preprocessing steps include the interpolation of missing values, the application of sliding window, and the detection of outliers, which will address gaps and errors. We apply an unsupervised Mean-Shift clustering algorithm to extract dense clusters of observations and identify subgroups of the species population. …”

Hooks, Lines, and Sinkers: How Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback and Cosmic-Ray Transport Shape the Far-infrared–Radio Correlation of Galaxies by Sam B. Ponnada, Rachel K. Cochrane, Philip F. Hopkins, Iryna S. Butsky, Sarah Wellons, N. Nicole Sanchez, Cameron Hummels, Yue Samuel Lu, Dušan Kereš, Christopher C. Hayward

“…Importantly, the indirect effect of AGN feedback on emergent observables highlights novel interpretations of outliers in the FRC. In particular, we find that in many cases “radio-excess” objects can be better understood as “IR-dim” objects with longer-lived radio contributions at low z from Type Ia supernovae and intermittent black hole accretion in quenching galaxies, though this is sensitive to the interplay of CR transport and AGN feedback physics. …”

Development of risk models for early detection and prediction of chronic kidney disease in clinical settings by Pegah Bahrami, Davoud Tanbakuchi, Monavar Afzalaghaee, Majid Ghayour-Mobarhan, Habibollah Esmaily

“…The features include patients’ sociodemographic, anthropometric, and laboratory tests that are mostly associated with CKD based on national and international studies. Missing data and outliers were deleted using listwise and interquartile range techniques, respectively. …”

A robust adaptive meta-sample generation method for few-shot time series prediction by Chao Zhang, Defu Jiang, Kanghui Jiang, Jialin Yang, Yan Han, Ling Zhu, Libo Tao

“…The existing meta-sample generation methods in FTSP scenes have an inherent limitation: With the increase of the complexity of prediction tasks, samples based on Gaussian distribution may be sensitive to noise and outliers in the meta-learning environment and lack of uncertainty expression, thus affecting the robustness and accuracy of prediction. …”

Ensemble-based customer churn prediction in banking: a voting classifier approach for improved client retention using demographic and behavioral data by Ruchika Bhuria, Sheifali Gupta, Upinder Kaur, Salil Bharany, Ateeq Ur Rehman, Seada Hussen, Ghanshyam G. Tejani, Pradeep Jangir

“…The study starts with univariate, bivariate, and multivariate feature exploration and subsequently uses the Interquartile Range (IQR) approach to identify outliers thereby improving the data quality. Five models—K-Nearest Neighbors, Support Vector Classifier, Random Forest, Decision Tree, and XGBoost—a Voting Classifier ensemble—are used to estimate project churn. …”

Association between bone mineral density and scoliosis: a two-sample mendelian randomization study in european populations by Fangjun Yang, Jiantao Wen

“…Inverse variance weighting (IVW) method was used as the main analysis method, and multiple sensitivity analysis was performed by combining weighted median, MR-Egger, MR Multi-effect residuals and outliers. Results IVW results showed that TB-BMD (OR = 0.83, 95%CI: 0.66–1.55 P = 0.13), LS-BMD (OR = 0.72, 95%CI: 0.52–0.99, P = 0.04), FN-BMD (OR = 0.74, 95%CI: 0.50–1.09, P = 0.13), FA-BMD (OR = 0.95,95%CI: 0.70–1.28, P = 0.75), HE-BMD (OR = 0.91, 95%CI: 0.77–1.08, P = 0.29). …”

Forecasting Foreign Exchange Volatility Using Deep Learning Autoencoder-LSTM Techniques by Gunho Jung, Sun-Yong Choi

“…Additionally, we investigate FXVIX indices through subperiod analysis to examine how the proposed model’s forecasting performance is influenced by data distributions and outliers. Based on the empirical results, we can conclude that the proposed hybrid method, which we call the autoencoder-LSTM model, outperforms the traditional LSTM method. …”
