Learning From High-Cardinality Categorical Features in Deep Neural Networks by Mustafa Murat Arat

“…To address the issue of encoding categorical variables in environments with a high cardinality, we also seek a general-purpose approach for statistical analysis of categorical entries that is capable of handling a very large number of catego-ries, while avoiding computational and statistical difficulties. Our proposed approach is low dimensional; thus, it is very efficient in processing time and memory, it can be computed in an online learning setting. …”

La discussion philosophique avec les enfants : Une dispositif communicationnel égalitaire comme pratique éducative de l’ouverture d’esprit. by Johanna Hawken

“…More precisely, there are three objectives: define the nature and characteristics of open-mindedness, analyse its emergence in philosophical discussions and, moreover, studying its role in the practice of philosophy. Our research (lead in the French town of Romainville, East of Paris, with the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne) has shown that certain indicators present in the children’s discourse manifest the occurrence of open-mindedness: reformulation of one another’s words, complementarity of statements, explication of each other’s ideas, establishment of nuances, disagreement on terms and critical thinking. …”
