La présente recherche a pour objet la pratique orthophonique en
suppléance à la communication (SC) auprès de personnes qui ont une déficience
intellectuelle (DI). Des recherches ont montré que les aides à la communication à
sortie vocale (ACSV) pouvaient améliorer…

Les propriétés pharmacocinétiques d’un nouveau médicament et les risques d’interactions médicamenteuses doivent être investigués très tôt dans le processus de recherche et développement. L’objectif principal de cette thèse était de concevoir des approches prédictives de modélisation du devenir du médicament…

The activity of designing and developing large, complex, discrete, physical, and engineered products faces the challenges in the physical product system, the organization of people, and the larger systems in which the product resides-the natural and societal systems. This thesis…

A transmitter antenna array has the ability to direct data simultaneously to multiple receivers within a wireless network, creating potential for a more integrated view of algorithmic system components. In this thesis, such a perspective informs the design of two…

Forecast models based on climatic conditions are of great interest in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs. The success of these models depends, among other factors, on the knowledge of the temperature effect on the pests? population dynamics. In this direction,…

An important tool for teaching is used at University of Alicante: the virtual campus. We think that information and communication technologies can help us to improve our teaching. Last year, we prepared some materials for our students and checked whether…

Sucrose is one of the compounds in the raw coffee bean that has been identified as an important precursor of coffee flavour and aroma. In order to increase our knowledge of sucrose metabolism in coffee species, sucrose and reducing sugar…

En este artículo proponemos dos alternativas para el tratamiento de consultas degradadas en aplicaciones de Recuperación de Información en español. La primera de ellas es una estrategia basada en n-gramas de caracteres e independiente del conocimiento y recursos lingüísticos disponibles.…

Most neural network learning algorithms cannot use knowledge other than what is provided in the training data. Initialized using random weights, they cannot use prior knowledge such as knowledge stored in previously trained networks. This manuscript thesis addresses this problem.…

Design and optimization of distillation columns for ethanol dehydration, using a hydrocarbon as entrainer, implies a good knowledge of vapor-liquid (VLE), liquid-liquid (LLE) and vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium (VLLE). Chemical process simulation programs always require the use of a thermodynamic model that…
