Effective assimilation of global precipitation: simulation experiments

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2013
Past attempts to assimilate precipitation by nudging or variational methods have succeeded in forcing the model precipitation to be close to the observed values. However, the model forecasts tend to lose their additional skill after a few forecast hours.

Unsupervised morphological segmentation for images [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
This paper deals with a morphological approach to unsupervised image segmentation. The proposed technique relies on a multiscale Top-Down approach allowing a hierarchical processing of the data ranging from the most global scale to the most detailed one.

‘Selective historians’: The construction of cisness in Byzantine and Byzantinist texts

open access: yesGender &History, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 32-51, March 2024.
Abstract Far from being a natural, prelapsarian state, cisness is a hegemonic ideal of gender performance demanded of all people. This article explores the construction of cisness in the field of Byzantine studies, and the historiographical tropes through which it is maintained, naturalised and made invisible.

A dynamical Gaussian, lognormal, and reverse lognormal Kalman filter

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 150, Issue 758, Page 262-274, January 2024 Part A.
We derive a generalization of the Kalman filter that allows for non‐Gaussian background and observation errors. For the Lorenz‐63 model, including non‐Gaussian errors leads to a significant improvement of the analysis skill for sparse and uncertain observations, as measured by the mean absolute error of the analysis state relative to the mean absolute ...

La Patinoire de Jean-Philippe Toussaint au miroir de La ricotta de Pier Paolo Pasolini : convergences divergentes dans une chambre d’échos

open access: yesMediAzioni
Jean-Philippe Toussaint’s La Patinoire is inspired by Pasolini’s La ricotta, according to the words of the Belgian writer-director. A catoptric anamorphosis connects the two cinematic works, and the contrasting dialectic that drives the Pasolinian short ...

A spatiotemporal precipitation generator based on a censored latent Gaussian field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A daily stochastic spatiotemporal precipitation generator that yields precipitation realizations that are quantitatively consistent is described. The methodology relies on a latent Gaussian field that drives both the occurrence and intensity of the ...

Anamorphosis: Between Perspective and Catoptrics

open access: yes, 2019
This essay is conceived in two parts: the first part deals with the perspectival and artistic work of the Minim Father Jean François Niceron (1613–1646). Niceron is the author of two volumes (the second published posthumously) that have become milestones concerning studies on perspective in the Seventeenth century – La perspective curieuse (Paris ...

Literature of law: between legal science and literary criticism

open access: yesAnamorphosis, 2018
This work questions the relationship between law – rules, power, strength and legal security –  and literature – open, ductile, revulsive of “having to” and dreamy with what “should be”.

Notes on mirror visions in 'Modesty Blaise' [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Modesty Blaise (Joseph Losey, 1966) travels the cinematic distance between an opening shot of the seemingly contented sleeping face of its star Monica Vitti and an extreme close-up of her eponymous character’s over-stimulated, rapacious look directly at ...
