Abstract This seminar investigates the mechanisms guiding cell growth and cell cycle progression decisions, using insights from single-cell dynamics. By utilizing advanced modeling and data-analysis techniques, I will address the stochasticity, …

Abstract Li-Ion or Na-Ion battery materials, positive electrodes and solid electrolytes in particular, are essentially inorganic compounds into which alkali metals ( Li+ or Na+ ) must diffuse, more or less rapidly or reversibly. As such, they exhibit very …

Abstract Planetesimals are the first macroscopic objects to form in a protoplanetary disk. Asteroids and trans-Neptunian objects are the remnants of the initial population of planetesimals in the circumstellar disk. The collective dynamics of dust …

Abstract Declines in biodiversity are being observed, and pollinating insects are not spared. Among the environmental pressures on pollinator populations, changes in land use have been identified as a major threat. In Europe, urbanization (expansion and …

Abstract Biodiversity is changing rapidly, but these changes are best known for a few well-studied groups, such as birds and mammals. Insects in general have received much less attention, with the possible exception of honeybees or butterflies. The data …

Abstract This session will be devoted to the deciphering and study of school papyri that are new or misinterpreted by their previous …

Abstract This presentation looks at the environmental history of the Roman province of Egypt, the granary of the Roman Empire. The Nile is the only source of water in this region, its green band easily recognizable on satellite images contrasting with the …

Abstract Throughout the Holocene, natural climatic changes have been a fundamental part of Earth's history, and also of human history. The Romans enjoyed a relatively stable climate, but even so, variability was part of life, and we can study how they …

The Groupe de recherches transversales en paléographie (GRTP), which aims to develop a transdisciplinary approach to palaeography, is joining forces with Biblissima+ to invite you to another day of study and discussion around the question : how to …

Abstract The control flow graph is a classic intermediate representation of programs in optimizing compilers for imperative languages. This representation has made it possible to formulate and develop numerous program optimizations, from the simplest to …

Abstract The fourth   lecture introduced the notion of the continuation of a program point in an imperative program, or of a sub-expression in a functional program. This is the sequence of calculations remaining to be performed to reach the end of the …

Lecture plan 1. Monasticism and lectures (continued) 1.1. The topos of the illiterate monk: monasteries as a place of unculture or a-culture (continued) 1.2. the monk's duty to know how to read and write 1.3 Monasteries and children: a difficult …

Abstract A causal model describes the distribution of each variable   X as a function of the variables causing   X , and of independent noise (representing other unknown factors influencing   X -   the "   known unknowns   "). A causal model avoids the …

The challenge now is to develop a more efficient algorithm for estimating model parameters. We begin by reviewing the properties of the Kullback-Leibler divergence and the Pinsker inequality that relates it to total variation. An exponential family has a …

Abstract Valentine's Day love poetry is a literary tradition that first found expression at the end of the 14th   century, in England during the reign of Richard   II. Following its transformations right up to Shakespeare and Thomas Hardy, and the "   …
