andré chénier (1762-1794) is the greatest and the best known french poet of the 18th century. he is famous especially for his courageous opposition to the power of the terror in the early years of the french revolution which caused finally his death by guillotine. the study of his poetical works can clarify the literary transition between neoclassicism and romanticism. this paper, by describing...

El campo del lenguaje audiovisual, el estatuto cine y la variación de los dispositivos exigen su reconsideración. En diálogo con InMediaciones Comunicación, Jorge La Ferla, Master in Arts por Universidad Pittsburgh profesor en Buenos Aires delCine Argentina, nos propone una cartografía para comprender algunos procesos que estamos atravesando y, apelando a producción rectora autores ineludibles ...

Abeillé and Godard (1994) seek to show that the rightward branching analysis of French tense auxiliaries shown in (1b), that I argued for in Manning (1992) and which is widely adopted in general, is wrong, and that rather we should adopt a flat analysis for this construction as shown in (1c), and they show how such an analysis can be realized within HPSG (Pollard and Sag 1994). (1) a. Je I vous...

This paper reviews the Super-exponential algorithm proposed by Shalvi and Weinstein for blind channel equalization. We show that the algorithm coincides with a gradient search of a maximum of a cost function, which belongs to a family of functions very relevant in blind channel equalization. This family traces back to Donoho’s work on minimum entropy deconvolution, and also underlies the Godard...

We study the Godard/CMA error surface in adapting the impulse response coefficients of a finite-length, tapped-delay-line filter to equalize a white, zero-mean, binary (21) source that suffers IS1 due to a linear channel. Our results arise primarily from examination of the expressions for the gradient and the Hessian in the baud-spaced equalizer parameter space of the cost-function in this part...
