Abstract In this talk, we present the teleportation algorithm and the Markov chain importance sampling algorithm. These two algorithms share the common principle of obtaining a chain targeting a given distribution from a simple transformation of a Markov …

We now consider the generation of new data by sampling a probability distribution whose density is known. Sampling a probability distribution can be achieved with a deterministic but chaotic dynamical system, whose probability distribution is an invariant …

Abstract In this second   part of the lecture, the aim is to chronologically trace the history of power through the prism of the languages of love. In the 11th-12th   centuries, political friendship was reformulated in a more affective way. Occitan …

Abstract The element fluorine is omnipresent in both secondary and primary batteries, in salt or electrolyte additives, separators, electrode formulation binders or anode or cathode materials. By way of example, LiPF6 and NaPF6 are used as salt, …

Abstract The planetary formation process begins with the appearance of a population of planetesimals. Collisions between these planetesimals gradually lead to the formation of increasingly massive objects, known as protoplanets. These objects can also …

Abstract Natural species terms (" Tiger ", " Beech ", " Gold ", etc.) are the subject of debate : are they descriptive terms that express characteristics of the objects falling within their extension, or do they function rather as names that designate …

Abstract Brentano invokes single-term judgments (" il y a de la neige ", " il pleut "), to refute the Aristotelian view that all judgments have the subject/predicate structure. Single-term judgements affirm (or deny) the reality of something ; they are …

Abstract In response to anthropogenic climate change, species migrate towards the poles and summits, while communities are enriched with more thermophilic species or become poorer in cryophilic species (cf. community thermophilization process). In my …
