Lire et laisser une trace : ex-libris, lectures interdites et collections particulières by Pierrette Lafond

“…Les ex-libris des membres du clergé sont présents en nombre important, mais s’y retrouvent également ceux appartenant à des propriétaires civils, de culture anglophone surtout. Revisitée grâce aux ex-libris dans la perspective du premier propriétaire-lecteur, cette « relecture » de la section des livres défendus devient l’évocation d’une mémoire occultée de l’histoire des bibliothèques.…”

Political Science in Ecuador, 2005-2019. A discipline in search of institutionalization by Edgar Alberto Zamora-Aviles, María Paz Jervis-Pastor

“…To a large extent this gradual strengthening is the result of a larger availability of academic programs, both at the undergraduate and graduate levels and of the enhanced relevancy and coherence of the discipline and its output. However, a further consolidation of political science as an academic discipline in Ecuador is hindered by the persistent confusion between so-called “political studies” and “political science proper” and by the lingering prevalence of an identification between the two. …”

U-Model and U-Control Methodology for Nonlinear Dynamic Systems by Weicun Zhang, Quanmin Zhu, Saleh Mobayen, Hao Yan, Ji Qiu, Pritesh Narayan

“…In contrast to the classic model-based design and model-free design methodologies, this model-independent design takes two parallel formations: (1) it designs an invariant virtual controller with a specified closed-loop transfer function in a feedback control loop and (2) it determines the real controller output by resolving the inverse of the plant U-model. …”

Change detection in the dynamics of an intracellular protein synthesis model using nonlinear Kalman filtering by Gerasimos G. Rigatos, Efthymia G. Rigatou, Jean Daniel Djida

“…Moreover, by applying an inverse transformation based on the previous diffeomorphism it becomes also possible to obtain estimates of the state variables of the initial nonlinear model. By comparing the output of the Kalman Filter (which is assumed to correspond to the undistorted dynamical model) with measurements obtained from the monitored protein synthesis system, a sequence of differences (residuals) is obtained. …”
