International audience; The High Level Trigger (HLT) of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider receives events which pass the LVL1 trigger at ~75 kHz and has to reduce the rate to ~200 Hz while retaining the most interesting physics. It is a software trigger and performs the reduction in two stages: the LVL2 trigger and the Event Filter (EF). At the heart of the HLT is the Steering software. To minimise processing time and data transfers it implements the novel event selection strategies of seeded, step-wise reconstruction and early rejection. The HLT is seeded by regions of interest identified at LVL1. These and the static configuration determine which algorithms are run to reconstruct event data and test the validity of trigger signatures. The decision to reject the event or continue is based on the valid signatures, taking into account pre-scale and pass-through. After the EF, event classification tags are assigned for streaming purposes. Several powerful new features for commissioning and operation have been added: comprehensive monitoring is now built in to the framework; for validation and debugging, reconstructed data can be written out; the steering is integrated with the new configuration (presented separately), and topological and global triggers have been added. This paper will present details of the final design and its implementation, the principles behind it, and the requirements and constraints it is subject to. The experience gained from technical runs with realistic trigger menus will be described.

France’s hesitant stance on EU enlargement towards the Balkans is illustrative of a broader ambivalence among both French elites and citizens towards the European project. Despite principled support for the Balkans’ EU membership, achieving this step is no strategic priority for France. The official approach emphasizes strict conditionality and a rigorous monitoring of reform progress in aspirant countries. A hostile public opinion and superficial media coverage further strengthen the country’s reluctance to admit new, possibly unprepared candidates into the Union. Analysing the historical evolution of the French position on EU enlargement as well as its current political, institutional and societal expressions, this article construes France’s disinvestment from the Balkans’ EU perspective as the result of failed expectations and a growing disillusionment with the EU’s international role and its political future more broadly.

V International Conference on Corpus Linguistics (CILC2013); International audience; The paper presents the early stage of the CRISTAL project, an original French project involving linguists, computer researchers and a firm specializing in multilingual text management. What is at stake from a linguistic point of view is a deeper analysis of the notion of Knowledge Rich Context proposed by Meyer (2001). Using comparable corpora, it analyzes how the notion of KRC can vary according to text genre and/or type of users.

We present the HIPE-2022 shared task on named entity processing in multilingual historical documents. Following the success of the first CLEF-HIPE-2020 evaluation lab, this edition confronts systems with the challenges of dealing with more languages, learning domain-specific entities, and adapting to diverse annotation tag sets. HIPE-2022 is part of the ongoing efforts of the natural language processing and digital humanities communities to adapt and develop appropriate technologies to efficiently retrieve and explore information from historical texts. On such material, however, named entity processing techniques face the challenges of domain heterogeneity, input noisiness, dynamics of language, and lack of resources. In this context, the main objective of the evaluation lab is to gain new insights into the transferability of named entity processing approaches across languages, time periods, document types, and annotation tag sets.

International audience; This essay examines the geographic origins, the political belongings and the confessional profiles of the members of the two most important mercantile nations of eighteenth-century southern Italy: the French nation and the British factory of Naples. Taking into account their pronounced prosopographic heterogeneity, it shows how legal resources and their social uses played a crucial role in defining the boundaries of such groups.

cited By 1; Conference of 9th International Symposium on Cavitation, CAV 2015 ; Conference Date: 6 December 2015 Through 10 December 2015; Conference Code:118001; International audience; This paper presents a numerical method for modelling a compressible multiphase flow that involves phase transition between liquid and vapour in the context of gasoline injection. A discontinuous compressible two fluid mixture based on the Volume of Fluid (VOF) implementation is employed to represent the phases of liquid, vapour and air. The mass transfer between phases is modelled by standard models such as Kunz or Schnerr-Sauer but including the presence of air in the gas phase. Turbulence is modelled using a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach to catch instationnarities and coherent structures. Eventually the modelling approach matches favourably experimental data concerning the effect of cavitation on atomisation process.

from International Workshop on Multimedia for Cultural Heritage : MM4CH 2011 Multimedia for Cultural Heritage; International audience; This paper shows how to improve the results of a 3D scanning system to allow to better fit the requirements of the Multi-Media and Cultural Heritage domains. A real-time in-hand scanning system is enhanced by further processing its intermediate data, with the goal of producing a digital 3D model with a high quality color texture and an improved representation of the high-frequency shape detail. The proposed solution starts from the usual output of the scanner, a 3D model and a video sequence gathered by the scanner sensor, for which the rigid motion is known at each frame. The produced color texture is deprived of the typical artifacts that generally appear while creating textures from several pictures: ghosting, shadows and specular highlights. In the case of objects made of diffuse materials, the system is also able to compute a normal map, thus improving the geometry acquired by the scanner. Results demonstrate that our texturing procedure is quite fast (a few minutes to process more than a thousand images). Moreover, the method is highly automatic, since only a few intuitive parameters must be tuned by the user, and all required computations are particularly suited to GPU programming, making the method convenient and scalable to graphics hardware.

Au Néolithique, les montagnes sont exploitées pour leurs ressources minérales, cynégétiques et pastorales. À partir de 5 500 ans avant notre ère, les premières communautés agropastorales atteignent les Alpes depuis le nord de l’Italie et la vallée du Rhône et s’établissent dans les massifs subalpins comme dans les Alpes internes. Les études archéobotaniques (analyse des macrorestes végétaux, principalement des graines, des fruits et des charbons de bois) permettent de comprendre l’économie végétale de ces communautés néolithiques : quelles espèces, sauvages ou cultivées, étaient récoltées pour le fourrage, pour construire, se nourrir, se soigner, se chauffer ? Les données de cinq sites néolithiques nous indiquent les différentes façons dont ces populations ont exploité leur territoire en tirant profit des ressources de divers biotopes, de l’étage collinéen à l’étage alpin, contribuant ainsi à mieux comprendre la mobilité verticale au Néolithique en contexte alpin. During the Neolithic, mountains were exploited for their mineral, hunting and pastoral resources. The first agro-pastoral communities reached the Alps from Northern Italy and the Rhone valley and settled in the subalpine massifs and in the internal Alps. Archeobotanical studies (plant macroremains and charcoal analysis) conducted at five sites allow us to understand the plant economy of these Neolithic communities: they determine which crops were cultivated, used as fodder, or gathered for consumption, medicine or other purpose, such as firewood. In the present paper, we support that the use of plant resources and the exploitation of territory are very different for the same period from one region to another, depending on the activities carried out at each site but also on cultural backgrounds. Archeobotanical data indicate how these people took resources from various plant associations growing from the colline to the subalpine level, and thus contribute to the understanding of vertical mobility in alpine contexts.

International audience; This paper describes the workflow of the Grammateus project, from gathering data on Greek documentary papyri to the creation of a web application. The first stage is the selection of a corpus and the choice of metadata to record: papyrology specialists gather data from printed editions, existing online resources and digital facsimiles. In the next step, this data is transformed into the EpiDoc standard of XML TEI encoding, to facilitate its reuse by others, and processed for HTML display. We also reuse existing text transcriptions available on . Since these transcriptions may be regularly updated by the scholarly community, we aim to access them dynamically. Although the transcriptions follow the EpiDoc guidelines, the wide diversity of the papyri as well as small inconsistencies in encoding make data reuse challenging. Currently, our data is available on an institutional GitLab repository, and we will archive our final dataset according to the FAIR principles.
