Tehnici auctoriale de încriptare a simbolului infantil. Studiu de caz: Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Émile by Cristina Deutsch

“…This aims to examine how the idea of childhood, seen in a positive light, tries to find a place in literature, the child becoming a character with its own features, an imaginary hero upon whom various techniques can be applied to demonstrate even a philosophical – pedagogical theory such as that of Rousseau. Seen, in fact, as a conventional symbol in fiction, the child will be viewed in this case more as an incarnation of the natural child, changing, in this way, the previous perceptions of childhood, both at a scientific level and at a literary one. …”

Recognition of High Difference Features in Urban Planning Images Based on Morphological Filtering by Peipei Liu

“…By analysing the combination of partial differential equation theory and enhancement, aiming at the shortcomings of low recognition accuracy, high error rate, and long time consuming in the current method of urban planning image feature recognition, a feature enhancement and simulation of urban planning image based on partial differential equation method is proposed; the preprocessing of urban planning image is realized by collecting the urban planning image. …”
