  • natural Language Concept analysis
    Conference on Computational Natural Language Learning, 1998
    Co-Authors: Vera Kamphuis, Janos J Sarbo
    Abstract:

    Can we do text analysis without phrase structure? We think the answer could be positive. In this paper we outline the basics of an underlying theory which yields hierarchical structure as the result of more abstract principles relating to the combinatorial properties of linguistic units. We discuss the nature of these properties and illustrate our model with examples.

  • Understanding patchy landscape dynamics: Towards a landscape Language
    PLoS ONE, 2012
    Co-Authors: Cédric Gaucherel, Frédéric Boudon, Thomas Houet, Mathieu Castets, Christophe Godin
    Abstract:

    Patchy landscapes driven by human decisions and/or natural forces are still a challenge to be understood and modelled. No attempt has been made up to now to describe them by a coherent framework and to formalize landscape changing rules. Overcoming this lacuna was our first objective here, and this was largely based on the notion of Rewriting Systems, also called Formal Grammars. We used complicated scenarios of agricultural dynamics to model landscapes and to write their corresponding driving rule equations. Our second objective was to illustrate the relevance of this landscape Language Concept for landscape modelling through various grassland managements, with the final aim to assess their respective impacts on biological conservation. For this purpose, we made the assumptions that a higher grassland appearance frequency and higher land cover connectivity are favourable to species conservation. Ecological results revealed that dairy and beef livestock production systems are more favourable to wild species than is hog farming, although in different ways. Methodological results allowed us to efficiently model and formalize these landscape dynamics. This study demonstrates the applicability of the Rewriting System framework to the modelling of agricultural landscapes and, hopefully, to other patchy landscapes. The newly defined grammar is able to explain changes that are neither necessarily local nor Markovian, and opens a way to analytical modelling of landscape dynamics.

  • tasklets overcoming heterogeneity in distributed computing systems
    International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems Workshops, 2016
    Co-Authors: Dominik Schafer, Janick Edinger, Sebastian Vansyckel, Justin Mazzola Paluska, Christian Becker
    Abstract:

    Distributed computing is a good alternative to expensive supercomputers. There are plenty of frameworks that enable programmers to harvest remote computing power. However, until today, much computation power in the edges of the Internet remains unused. While idle devices could contribute to a distributed environment as generic computation resources, computation-intense applications could use this pool of resources to enhance their execution quality. In this paper, we identify heterogeneity as a major burden for distributed and edge computing. Heterogeneity is present in multiple forms. We draw our vision of a comprehensive distributed computing system and show where existing frameworks fall short in dealing with the heterogeneity of distributed computing. Afterwards, we present the Tasklet system, our approach for a distributed computing framework. Tasklets are fine-grained computation units that can be issued for remote and local execution. We tackle the different dimensions of heterogeneity and show how to make use of available computation power in edge resources. In our prototype, we use middleware and virtualization technologies as well as a host Language Concept.
