Neste trabalho, apresentamos uma axiomatização de um modelo de preferências completas sob incerteza que propicia uma multiplicidade de gostos (utilidades) e crenças (priors). Tal qual Gilboa e Schmeidler (1989), trabalhamos em um set-up de Anscombe-Aumann e cada ato é avaliado pelo pior cenário. A diferença é que, enquanto no modelo de Gilboa e Schmeidler (1989) os múltiplos cenários são compostos de um conjunto de crenças, aqui eles serão representados por um conjunto formado de pares crenças-utilidades. Axiomatizamos, também, o caso especial quando os múltiplos cenários resultam apenas de uma multiplicidade de utilidades. _______________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
In this work, we present an axiomatization of a model of complete preferences under uncertainty that allows for a multiplicity of tastes and beliefs. As in Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989), we work in an Anscombe-Aumann setup and each act is evaluated by the worst case scenario. The difference is that while in Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989) the multiple scenarios are composed of a set of priors, here they are composed of a set of probability-utility pairs. We axiomatize also the special case when the multiple scenarios are a consequence of the multiplicity of tastes only.

Abstract:
This thesis aims to better represent a framework for asynchrony. Traditional asynchronous models, particularly those used to simulate cellular automata, have used stochasticity or randomness to generate update times. We claimthat, while they may make good representations of their application, such asynchronousmethods rid themodel of the essence of interesting asynchronous processes. Thus, we attempt to better harness the aspects internal to the decision process of such discretely dynamic cells as those in cellular automata.We propose the maxmin-m model as a suitable model for the asynchronous computation of cellular automata. The model uses maxmin-plus algebra, a special case of which is max-plus algebra. This algebra arises naturally from the cellular automaton requirement that a cell receives the state of its neighbours before updating. The maxmin-m model allows each cell to update after it receives m out of a possible n neighbours' states.The max-plus model shows that, while update times may be asynchronous in real time, there is no loss of information, since the corresponding asynchronous process is bijectively related to the synchronous model. In turn, the cellular automaton output, measured by the Shannon and word entropies, is shown to vary little from the synchronous model. Moreover, this type of asynchrony is simple, i.e. it is deterministically obtained due to the linearity of max-plus algebra.Indeed, the maxmin-m model is also shown to be deterministic and always reaches periodic behaviour. In the long time limit, this model is shown to be represented by a max-plus model, supporting its determinism further. Consequently, the complexity of such a model may be thought to be limited. However, we show through large scale experiments that the case where m is approximately n/2 generates most complex behaviour in terms of large periods and transients to the aforementioned periodic orbits. In particular, the complexity is empirically shown to obey a bell form as a function of m (where m ranges from 1 to n). The resulting cellular automaton simulations indicate a correspondence from the complexity of the update times. Therefore, cellular automaton behaviour may be predictable with the type of asynchrony employed in this thesis.

Hartmann, L. "Perceived ambiguity, ambiguity attitude and strategic ambiguity in games." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2019. http://hdl.handle.net/10871/35581.
Abstract:
This thesis contributes to the theoretical work on decision and game theory when decision makers or players perceive ambiguity. The first article introduces a new axiomatic framework for ambiguity aversion and provides axiomatic characterizations for important preference classes that thus far had lacked characterizations. The second article introduces a new axiom called Weak Monotonicity which is shown to play a crucial role in the multiple prior model. It is shown that for many important preference classes, the assumption of monotonic preferences is a consequence of the other axioms and does not have to be assumed. The third article introduces an intuitive definition of perceived ambiguity in the multiple prior model. It is shown that the approach allows an application to games where players perceive strategic ambiguity. A very general equilibrium existence result is given. The modelling capabilities of the approach are highlighted through the analysis of examples. The fourth article applies the model from the previous article to a specific class of games with a lattice-structure. We perform comparative statics on perceived ambiguity and ambiguity attitude. We show that more optimism does not necessarily lead to higher equilibria when players have Alpha-Maxmin preferences. We present necessary and sufficient conditions on the structure of the prior sets for this comparative statics result to hold. The introductory chapter provides the basis of the four articles in this thesis. An overview of axiomatic decision theory, decision-making under ambiguity and ambiguous games is given. It introduces and discusses the most relevant results from the literature.

Kelmendi, Edon. "Two-Player Stochastic Games with Perfect and Zero Information." Thesis, Bordeaux, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016BORD0238/document.
Abstract:
On considère des jeux stochastiques joués sur un graphe fini. La première partie s’intéresse aux jeux stochastiques à deux joueurs et information parfaite. Dans de tels jeux, les joueurs choisissent des actions dans ensemble fini, tour à tour, pour une durée infinie, produisant une histoire infinie. Le but du jeu est donné par une fonction d’utilité qui associe un réel à chaque histoire, la fonction est bornée et Borel-mesurable. Le premier joueur veut maximiser l’utilité espérée, et le deuxième joueur veut la minimiser. On démontre que si la fonction d’utilité est à la fois shift-invariant et submixing alors le jeu est semi-positionnel. C’est-à-dire le premier joueur a une stratégie optimale qui est déterministe et sans mémoire. Les deux joueurs ont information parfaite: ils choisissent leurs actions en ayant une connaissance parfaite de toute l’histoire. Dans la deuxième partie, on étudie des jeux de durée fini où le joueur protagoniste a zéro information. C’est-à-dire qu’il ne reçoit aucune information sur le déroulement du jeu, par conséquent sa stratégie est un mot fini sur l’ensemble des actions. Un automates probabiliste peut être considéré comme un tel jeu qui a un seul joueur. Tout d’abord, on compare deux classes d’automates probabilistes pour lesquelles le problème de valeur 1 est décidable: les automates leaktight et les automates simples. On prouve que la classe des automates simples est un sous-ensemble strict de la classe des automates leaktight. Puis, on considère des jeux semi-aveugles, qui sont des jeux à deux joueurs où le maximiseur a zéro information, et le minimiseur est parfaitement informé. On définit la classe des jeux semi-aveugles leaktight et on montre que le problème d’accessibilité maxmin est décidable sur cette classeWe consider stochastic games that are played on finite graphs. The subject of the first part are two-player stochastic games with perfect information. In such games the two players take turns choosing actions from a finite set, for an infinite duration, resulting in an infinite play. The objective of the game is given by a Borel-measurable and bounded payoff function that maps infinite plays to real numbers. The first player wants to maximize the expected payoff, and the second player has the opposite objective, that of minimizing the expected payoff. We prove that if the payoff function is both shift-invariant and submixing then the game is half-positional. This means that the first player has an optimal strategy that is at the same time pure and memoryless. Both players have perfect information, so the actions are chosen based on the whole history. In the second part we study finite-duration games where the protagonist player has zero information. That is, he gets no feedback from the game and consequently his strategy is a finite word over the set of actions. Probabilistic finite automata can be seen as an example of such a game that has only a single player. First we compare two classes of probabilistic automata: leaktight automata and simple automata, for which the value 1 problem is known to be decidable. We prove that simple automata are a strict subset of leaktight automata. Then we consider half-blind games, which are two player games where the maximizer has zero information and the minimizer is perfectly informed. We define the class of leaktight half-blind games and prove that it has a decidable maxmin reachability problem

Ozturk, Aybuke. "Design, Implementation and Analysis of a Description Model for Complex Archaeological Objects." Thesis, Lyon, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018LYSE2048/document.
Abstract:
La céramique est l'un des matériaux archéologiques les plus importants pour aider à la reconstruction des civilisations passées. Les informations à propos des objets céramiques complexes incluent des données textuelles, numériques et multimédias qui posent plusieurs défis de recherche abordés dans cette thèse. D'un point de vue technique, les bases de données de céramiques présentent différents formats de fichiers, protocoles d'accès et langages d'interrogation. Du point de vue des données, il existe une grande hétérogénéité et les experts ont différentes façons de représenter et de stocker les données. Il n'existe pas de contenu et de terminologie standard, surtout en ce qui concerne la description des céramiques. De plus, la navigation et l'observation des données sont difficiles. L'intégration des données est également complexe en raison de laprésence de différentes dimensions provenant de bases de données distantes, qui décrivent les mêmes catégories d'objets de manières différentes.En conséquence, ce projet de thèse vise à apporter aux archéologues et aux archéomètres des outils qui leur permettent d'enrichir leurs connaissances en combinant différentes informations sur les céramiques. Nous divisons notre travail en deux parties complémentaires : (1) Modélisation de données archéologiques complexes, et (2) Partitionnement de données (clustering) archéologiques complexes. La première partie de cette thèse est consacrée à la conception d'un modèle de données archéologiques complexes pour le stockage des données céramiques. Cette base de donnée alimente également un entrepôt de données permettant des analyses en ligne (OLAP). La deuxième partie de la thèse est consacrée au clustering (catégorisation) des objets céramiques. Pour ce faire, nous proposons une approche floue, dans laquelle un objet céramique peut appartenir à plus d'un cluster (d'une catégorie). Ce type d'approche convient bien à la collaboration avec des experts, enouvrant de nouvelles discussions basées sur les résultats du clustering.Nous contribuons au clustering flou (fuzzy clustering) au sein de trois sous-tâches : (i) une nouvelle méthode d'initialisation des clusters flous qui maintient linéaire la complexité de l'approche ; (ii) un indice de qualité innovant qui permet de trouver le nombre optimal de clusters ; et (iii) l'approche Multiple Clustering Analysis qui établit des liens intelligents entre les données visuelles, textuelles et numériques, ce qui permet de combiner tous les types d'informations sur les céramiques. Par ailleurs, les méthodes que nous proposons pourraient également être adaptées à d'autres domaines d'application tels que l'économie ou la médecineCeramics are one of the most important archaeological materials to help in the reconstruction of past civilizations. Information about complex ceramic objects is composed of textual, numerical and multimedia data, which induce several research challenges addressed in this thesis. From a technical perspective, ceramic databases have different file formats, access protocols and query languages. From a data perspective, ceramic data are heterogeneous and experts have differentways of representing and storing data. There is no standardized content and terminology, especially in terms of description of ceramics. Moreover, data navigation and observation are difficult. Data integration is also difficult due to the presence of various dimensions from distant databases, which describe the same categories of objects in different ways.Therefore, the research project presented in this thesis aims to provide archaeologists and archaeological scientists with tools for enriching their knowledge by combining different information on ceramics. We divide our work into two complementary parts: (1) Modeling of Complex Archaeological Data and (2) Clustering Analysis of Complex Archaeological Data. The first part of this thesis is dedicated to the design of a complex archaeological database model for the storage of ceramic data. This database is also used to source a data warehouse for doing online analytical processing (OLAP). The second part of the thesis is dedicated to an in-depth clustering (categorization) analysis of ceramic objects. To do this, we propose a fuzzy approach, where ceramic objects may belong to more than one cluster (category). Such a fuzzy approach is well suited for collaborating with experts, by opening new discussions based on clustering results.We contribute to fuzzy clustering in three sub-tasks: (i) a novel fuzzy clustering initialization method that keeps the fuzzy approach linear; (ii) an innovative quality index that allows finding the optimal number of clusters; and (iii) the Multiple Clustering Analysis approach that builds smart links between visual, textual and numerical data, which assists in combining all types ofceramic information. Moreover, the methods we propose could also be adapted to other application domains such as economy or medicine

Li, Junkang. "Games with incomplete information : complexity, algorithmics, reasoning." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Normandie, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023NORMC270.
Abstract:
Dans cette thèse, on étudie les jeux à information incomplète. On commence par établir un paysage complet de la complexité du calcul des stratégies pures optimales pour différentes sous-catégories de jeux, lorsque les jeux sont explicitement donnés en entrée. On étudie ensuite la complexité lorsque les jeux sont représentés de façon compacte (par leurs règles de jeu, par exemple). Pour ce faire, on conçoit deux formalismes pour ces représentations compactes. Dans la suite, on se consacre aux jeux à information incomplète, en proposant d'abord un nouveau formalisme, nommé jeu combinatoire à information incomplète, qui regroupe les jeux sans hasard (sauf un tirage aléatoire initial) et avec uniquement des actions publiques. Pour de tels jeux, ce nouveau formalisme capture la notion de l'information et de la connaissance des joueurs mieux que la forme extensive. Puis, on étudie des algorithmes et leurs optimisations pour résoudre les jeux combinatoires à information incomplète ; certains algorithmes que l'on propose sont applicables au-delà de ces jeux. Dans la dernière partie, on présente un travail en cours, qui consiste à modéliser les raisonnements récursifs et différents types de connaissances sur le comportement des adversaires dans les jeux à information incomplèteIn this dissertation, we study games with incomplete information. We begin by establishing a complete landscape of the complexity of computing optimal pure strategies for different subclasses of games, when games are given explicitly as input. We then study the complexity when games are represented compactly (e.g.\ by their game rules). For this, we design two formalisms for such compact representations. Then we concentrate on games with incomplete information, by first proposing a new formalism called combinatorial game with incomplete information, which encompasses games of no chance (apart from a random initial drawing) and with only public actions. For such games, this new formalism captures the notion of information and knowledge of the players in a game better than extensive form. Next, we study algorithms and their optimisations for solving combinatorial games with incomplete information; some of these algorithms are applicable beyond these games. In the last part, we present a work in progress that concerns the modelling of recursive reasoning and different types of knowledge about the behaviour of the opponents in games with incomplete information

Abstract:
La matière lignocellulosique est une nouvelle source potentielle de carburant. Cependant les huiles produites à partir de cette ressource contiennent d'importantes quantités d'oxygène qu'il est nécessaire d'éliminer via un procédé d'hydrodésoxygénation qui peut être réalisée lors de l'hydrodésulfuration (HDS) des gazoles. Ceci présente l'avantage d'utiliser les unités d'hydrotraitement disponibles en raffinerie. Pour mettre en évidence les interactions complexes qui existent entre les molécules soufrées et oxygénées, l'impact de composés modèles oxygénés (guaiacol, phénol, CO, CO2 et acide décanoïque) sur la transformation de composés modèles soufrés représentatifs de ceux contenus dans les gazoles (dibenzothiophène (DBT) et 4,6-diméthyldibenzothiophène (46DMDBT)) a été évalué dans les conditions d'HDS (340°C, 4 MPa, CoMoP/Al2O3). Le choix du DBT et du 46DMDBT est justifié car leur transformation implique les deux principales voies de désulfuration (rupture directe des liaisons C-S (DSD) et hydrogénation préalable des noyaux aromatiques (HYD)). Ainsi, un impact négatif des composés oxygénés sur l'HDS des dibenzothiophènes a été mis en évidence et attribué à des compétitions à l'adsorption entre les composés soufrés et oxygénés à la surface du catalyseur. Néanmoins, l'effet négatif dépend de la molécule oxygénée et de la molécule soufrée. L'acide décanoïque serait plus inhibiteur que le CO, le guaiacol et surtout le phénol. Le phénol présente un effet similaire sur les deux voies (HYD et DSD), contrairement au guaiacol qui provoque une inhibition plus importante de la voie HYD. L'acide décanoïque et le CO ont un impact plus conséquent sur la rupture des liaisons C-SThe lignocellulosic material is a new potential source to produce diesel fuels. However, this material contains significant amounts of oxygen which is necessary to eliminate through a process hydrodeoxygenation that can be achieved during the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of diesel fuels. This represents the advantage of using hydrotreating units available in the refinery. To highlight the complex interactions between sulfur and oxygen molecules, the impact of model oxygenated compounds (guaiacol, phenol, CO, CO2 and decanoic acid) on the conversion of model compounds representative of those sulfur content in diesel (dibenzothiophene (DBT) and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (46DMDBT)) was evaluated under HDS operating conditions (340°C, 4 MPa, CoMoP/Al2O3). The transformation of DBT and 46DMDBT requires the two main routes involves in HDS process (direct C-S bond rupture: DSD and hydrogenation of aromatic rings followed by C-S bond rupture:HYD). A negative impact of oxygenates on the HDS of dibenzothiophenes has been showed and corresponds to a competitive adsorption between the sulfur and oxygenated compounds on the catalyst surface. The negative impact depends on the oxygenated and sulfur molecules. Indeed, the inhibition was more significant in the presence of decanoic acid than CO and more especially than guaiacol and phenol. Phenol has a similar effect on both ways (HYD and DSD), in contrast to guaiacol, which leads to a greater inhibition of the HYD pathway. Decanoic acid and CO have a more substantial impact on the direct C-S bonds

Abstract:
Recently, convex relaxations have achieved notable success in solving NP-hard optimization problems. This thesis studies semidefinite and second-order cone programming convex relaxations of the maximin dispersion problem. Providing nontrivial approximation bounds, we believe that our SDP and SOCP relaxation methods are useful in large-scale optimization.
The thesis is organized as follows. We begin by recalling some basic concepts from convex analysis, nonsmooth analysis, and optimization. We then introduce the weighted maximin dispersion optimization problem; locating point(s) in a given region X ⊆ R^{n} that is/are furthest from a given set of m points. Also given are several reformulations of the original problem, including a convex relaxation problem and semidefinite and second order cone programming relaxations. Using well known results on Lipschitz functions and subdifferentials of Lipschitz functions we then derive a theoretical characterization of the optimal solutions for a given convex region X and equal weights. Next, we provide a proof that the weighted maximin dispersion problem is NP-hard even in the case where X is a box and the weights are equal. We then propose an algorithm for finding an approximate solution using the SDP relaxation, and derive an approximation bound that depends on the subset X. In the case that X is a box or a product of low-dimensional spheres, we show that the convex relaxation reduces to a second-order cone program, and provide further results on the bound provided. Lastly, we provide numerical examples using the SDP and SOCP relaxations, and suggest future work.

Abstract:
Un hypercube latin (LHD) maximin est un ensemble de points contenus dans un hypercube tel que les points ne partagent de coordonnées sur aucune dimension et tel que la distance minimale entre deux points est maximale. Les LHDs maximin sont particulièrement utilisés pour la construction de métamodèles en raison de leurs bonnes propriétés pour l’échantillonnage. Comme la plus grande partie des travaux concernant les LHD se sont concentrés sur leur construction par des algorithmes heuristiques, nous avons décidé de produire une étude détaillée du problème, et en particulier de sa complexité et de son approximabilité en plus des algorithmes heuristiques permettant de le résoudre en pratique.Nous avons généralisé le problème de construction d’un LHD maximin en définissant le problème de compléter un LHD entamé en respectant la contrainte maximin. Le sous-problème dans lequel le LHD partiel est vide correspond au problème de construction de LHD classique. Nous avons étudié la complexité du problème de complétion et avons prouvé qu’il est NP-complet dans de nombreux cas. N’ayant pas déterminé la complexité du sous-problème, nous avons cherché des garanties de performances pour les algorithmes résolvant les deux problèmes.D’un côté, nous avons prouvé que le problème de complétion n’est approximable pour aucune norme en dimensions k ≥ 3. Nous avons également prouvé un résultat d’inapproximabilité plus faible pour la norme L1 en dimension k = 2. D’un autre côté, nous avons proposé un algorithme d’approximation pour le problème de construction, et avons calculé le rapport d’approximation grâce à deux bornes supérieures que nous avons établies. En plus de l’aspect théorique de cette étude, nous avons travaillé sur les algorithmes heuristiques, et en particulier sur la méta-heuristique du recuit simulé. Nous avons proposé une nouvelle fonction d’évaluation pour le problème de construction et de nouvelles mutations pour les deux problèmes, permettant d’améliorer les résultats rapportés dans la littératureA maximin Latin Hypercube Design (LHD) is a set of point in a hypercube which do not share a coordinate on any dimension and such that the minimal distance between two points, is maximal. Maximin LHDs are widely used in metamodeling thanks to their good properties for sampling. As most work concerning LHDs focused on heuristic algorithms to produce them, we decided to make a detailed study of this problem, including its complexity, approximability, and the design of practical heuristic algorithms.We generalized the maximin LHD construction problem by defining the problem of completing a partial LHD while respecting the maximin constraint. The subproblem where the partial LHD is initially empty corresponds to the classical LHD construction problem. We studied the complexity of the completion problem and proved its NP-completeness for many cases. As we did not determine the complexity of the subproblem, we searched for performance guarantees of algorithms which may be designed for both problems. On the one hand, we found that the completion problem is inapproximable for all norms in dimensions k ≥ 3. We also gave a weaker inapproximation result for norm L1 in dimension k = 2. On the other hand, we designed an approximation algorithm for the construction problem which we proved using two new upper bounds we introduced.Besides the theoretical aspect of this study, we worked on heuristic algorithms adapted for these problems, focusing on the Simulated Annealing metaheuristic. We proposed a new evaluation function for the construction problem and new mutations for both the construction and completion problems, improving the results found in the literature

Abstract:
Even though the maxims' theory is not at thecenter of Kant's ethics, it is the unavoidable basis of the categoric imperative's formulation. Kant leanson the transmitted representations of modem moral theory. During the last decades, the notion of maxims has deserved more attention, due to the philosophy of language's debates on rules, and due to action theory's interest in this notion. I here by brietly expound my views in these discussions.A pesar de que la doctrina de las máximas no se halla en el centro de la ética kantiana, constituye una base irrenunciable para la formulación del imperativo categórico. Kant se apoya, como veremos, sobre representaciones recogidas por la tradición de la moral moderna. Ahora bien, en las últimas décadas la noción de máxima ha captado una mayor atención gracias al debate de la filosofía del lenguaje en tomo a las reglas, así como al interés que dicha noción suscita en la teoría de la acción. Tomo aquí posición en forma resumida con respecto a estos debates.

This thesis contains three chapters. The first chapter considers tests of the parameter of an endogenous variable in an instrumental variables regression model. The focus is on one-sided conditional t-tests. Theoretical and numerical work shows that the conditional 2SLS and Fuller t-tests perform well even when instruments are weakly correlated with the endogenous variable. When the population F-statistic is as small as two, the power is reasonably close to the power envelopes for similar and non-similar tests which are invariant to rotation transformations of the instruments. This finding is surprising considering the poor performance of two-sided conditional t-tests found in Andrews, Moreira, and Stock (2007). These tests have bad power because the conditional null distributions of t-statistics are asymmetric when instruments are weak. Taking this asymmetry into account, we propose two-sided tests based on t-statistics. These novel tests are approximately unbiased and can perform as well as the conditional likelihood ratio (CLR) test. The second and third chapters are interested in maxmin and minimax regret tests for broader hypothesis testing problems. In the second chapter, we present maxmin and minimax regret tests satisfying more general restrictions than the alpha-level and the power control over all alternative hypothesis constraints. More general restrictions enable us to eliminate trivial known tests and obtain tests with desirable properties, such as unbiasedness, local unbiasedness and similarity. In sequence, we prove that both tests always exist and under suficient assumptions, they are Bayes tests with priors that are solutions of an optimization problem, the dual problem. In the last part of the second chapter, we consider testing problems that are invariant to some group of transformations. Under the invariance of the hypothesis testing, the Hunt-Stein Theorem proves that the search for maxmin and minimax regret tests can be restricted to invariant tests. We prove that the Hunt-Stein Theorem still holds under the general constraints proposed. In the last chapter we develop a numerical method to implement maxmin and minimax regret tests proposed in the second chapter. The parametric space is discretized in order to obtain testing problems with a finite number of restrictions. We prove that, as the discretization turns finer, the maxmin and the minimax regret tests satisfying the finite number of restrictions have the same alternative power of the maxmin and minimax regret tests satisfying the general constraints. Hence, we can numerically implement tests for a finite number of restrictions as an approximation for the tests satisfying the general constraints. The results in the second and third chapters extend and complement the maxmin and minimax regret literature interested in characterizing and implementing both tests.
Esta tese contém três capítulos. O primeiro capítulo considera testes de hipóteses para o coeficiente de regressão da variável endógena em um modelo de variáveis instrumentais. O foco é em testes-t condicionais para hipóteses unilaterais. Trabalhos teóricos e numéricos mostram que os testes-t condicionais centrados nos estimadores de 2SLS e Fuller performam bem mesmo quando os instrumentos são fracamente correlacionados com a variável endógena. Quando a estatística F populacional é menor que dois, o poder é razoavelmente próximo do poder envoltório para testes que são invariantes a transformações que rotacionam os instrumentos (similares ou não similares). Este resultado é surpreendente considerando a baixa performance dos testes-t condicionais para hipóteses bilaterais apresentado em Andrews, Moreira, and Stock (2007). Estes testes possuem baixo poder porque as distribuições das estatísticas-t na hipótese nula são assimétricas quando os instrumentos são fracos. Explorando tal assimetria, nós propomos testes para hipóteses bilaterais baseados em estatísticas-t. Estes testes são aproximadamente não viesados e podem performar tão bem quanto o teste de razão de máxima verossimilhança condicional. No segundo e no terceiro capítulos, nosso interesse é em testes do tipo maxmin e minimax regret para testes de hipóteses mais gerais. No segundo capítulo, nós apresentamos testes maxmin e minimax regret que satisfazem restrições mais gerais que as restrições de tamanho e de controle sobre todo o poder na hipótese alternativa. Restrições mais gerais nos possibilitam eliminar testes triviais e obter testes com propriedades desejáveis, como por exemplo não viés, não viés local e similaridade. Na sequência, nós provamos que ambos os testes existem e, sob condições suficientes, eles são testes Bayesianos com priors que são solução de um problema de otimização, o problema dual. Na última parte do segundo capítulo, nós consideramos testes de hipóteses que são invariantes à algum grupo de transformações. Sob invariância, o Teorema de Hunt-Stein implica que a busca por testes maxmin e minimax regret pode ser restrita a testes invariantes. Nós provamos que o Teorema de Hunt-Stein continua válido sob as restrições gerais propostas. No último capítulo, nós desenvolvemos um procedimento numérico para implementar os testes maxmin e minimax regret propostos no segundo capítulo. O espaço paramétrico é discretizado com o objetivo de obter testes de hipóteses com um número finito de pontos. Nós provamos que, ao considerarmos partições mais finas, os testes maxmin e minimax regret que satisfazem um número finito de pontos possuem o mesmo poder na hipótese alternativa que os testes maxmin e minimax regret que satisfazem as restrições gerais. Portanto, nós podemos implementar numericamente os testes que satisfazem um número finito de pontos como aproximação aos testes que satisfazem as restrições gerais.

Abstract:
Cette these est consacree a trois problemes concernant ou mettant en uvre des structures arborescentes. 1) la generation aleatoire d'arbres: nous proposons des algorithmes lineaires pour generer les forets d'arbres decoupees en motifs et les arbres colores, deux pseudo-algorithmes pour construire des arbres unaire-binaires avec une complexite moyenne lineaire, deux algorithmes pour generer des arbres binaires de hauteur donnee qui ont complexite presque lineaire. Nous analysons et ameliorons l'algorithme de wilf de generation des arborescences. Nous etudions egalement comment construire sur une machine multiprocesseurs des mots (mots de dyck, mots de motzkine,. . . ) qui sont en bijection avec des structures arborescentes. 2) le probleme de l'inclusion: etant donne deux arbres s et t est-il possible d'obtenir l'arbre s en enlevant des nuds de t? recemment, p. Kilpelainen et h. Mannila ont fourni un algorithme qui resout ce probleme avec une complexite de o(|s|. |t|) (dans le pire cas et en moyenne) et un espace utilise du meme ordre. Nous proposons ici un nouvel algorithme qui ameliore cette complexite moyenne. 3) l'etude de relations de recurrence maximin multidimensionnelles: nous donnons des bornes superieures et inferieures pour les solutions de l'equation m(n)=max (m(a#i)+min(f(a#1),. . . ,f(a#p))), a#1+. . . +a#p=n, p2 i=1 lorsque la fonction f est croissante ou decroissante. Des bornes similaires sont obtenues lorsque nous remplacons la fonction min par la somme des k plus petits termes ou la somme de tous les termes sauf le maximum

Cavill, Paul. "Maxims in Old English poetry." Thesis, University of Nottingham, 1996. http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/11063/.
Abstract:
The focus of the thesis is on maxims and gnomes in Old English poetry, but the occasional occurrence of these forms of expression in Old English prose and in other Old Germanic literature is also given attention, particularly in the earlier chapters. Chapters 1 to 3 are general, investigating a wide range of material to see how and why maxims were used, then to define the forms, and distinguish them from proverbs. The conclusions of these chapters are that maxims are ‘nomic’, they organise experience in a conventional, authoritative fashion. They are also ‘proverbial’ in the sense of being recognisable and repeatable, but they do not have the fixed form of proverbs. Chapters 4 to 7 are more specific in their focus, applying techniques from formulaic theory, paroemiology and the sociology of knowledge to the material so as to better understand how maxims are used in their contexts in the poems, and to appreciate the nature and function of the Maxims collections. The conclusions reached here are that the maxims in Beowulf 183b-88 are integral to the poem, that maxims in The Battle of Maldon show how the poet manipulated the social functions of the form for his own purposes, that there is virtually no paganism in Old English maxims, and that the Maxims poems outline and illustrate an Anglo-Saxon world view. The main contribution of the thesis is that it goes beyond traditional commentary in analysing the purpose and function of maxims. It does not merely focus on individual poems, but attempts to deal with a limited aspect of the Old English oral and literary tradition. The primary aim is to understand the general procedures of the poets in using maxims and compiling compendia of them, and then to apply insights gained from theoretical approaches to the specifics of poems.

Masséna, Floriane. "La prescription extinctive des moyens de défense, aux origines de la maxime Quæ temporalia sunt ad agendum perpetua sunt ad excipiendum." Thesis, université Paris-Saclay, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020UPASH010.
Abstract:
En établissant la perpétuité de l’exception de nullité à l’article 1185 du code civil dans sa nouvelle rédaction issue de la réforme du droit des obligations de 2016, le législateur a partiellement codifié la maxime Quæ temporalia sunt ad agendum perpetua sunt ad excipiendum. La question de la durée des autres moyens de défense n’a en revanche pas été résolue par la réforme. Les débats qui ont cours depuis le milieu du XXe siècle quant à la pertinence d’un principe de perpétuité des moyens de défense demeurent donc d’actualité. Ses partisans invoquent la maxime Quæ temporalia, ses racines anciennes, et sa constance au fil des siècles. Ses détracteurs invoquent au contraire la prétendue caducité de la maxime Quæ temporalia, laquelle aurait été implicitement abrogée par le code civil de 1804. L’étude historique de cette maxime permet de mieux en saisir la cause, le contexte et les motifs à l’origine de son élaboration et, à travers les évolutions de son régime juridique, d’enrichir et de renouveler le débat tenant à son opportunité en droit positif. D’origine plus probablement médiévale que romaine, la maxime Quæ temporalia vise, en offrant un privilège à la partie faible du procès, à assurer l’équité au cours de l’instance. Cette volonté de protéger le défendeur se retrouve à chaque époque et se traduit par de régulières réaffirmations et extensions du principe de perpétuité des moyens de défense. Le quasi vide juridique qui caractérise l’histoire de cette maxime invite à s’intéresser par ailleurs à la place des sources subsidiaires du droit dans le système français, y compris après l’œuvre codificatrice napoléonienneThe article 1185 of the civil code has been modified by the 2016 reform. Since then, this text decides that the exception based on nullity is perpetual. Therefore, part of the maxim Quæ temporalia sunt ad agendum perpetua sunt ad excipiendum is now included in the law. However, the duration of the other defences has not been fixed by the law.Since the middle of the XXth century, a debate about the existence of a principle of perpetuity of all defences takes place. Jurists who agree with this principle invoke the maxim Quæ temporalia, its old roots, and his continuity throughout centuries. At the opposite side, Jurists who disagree consider that this maxim has been abrogated in 1804. An historical study of the maxim helps understanding its cause, the context of its creation and its evolutions. These informations renew the debate concerning its incorporation into positive law.The maxim must have been created during medieval period. By offering a privilege ot the weakest party, the maxim seeks equity. As the will to protect the defendant is constant in time, the maxim has been reaffirmed and extended regularly through centuries.As there are really few texts about the duration of denfences, the maxim also leeds to study the importance of secondary sources of law, even after the XIXth century codification work

Abstract:
The conversational maxims are guidelines to how a conversation should be conducted, but sometimes these maxims can be broken for different reasons. The aim of this thesis is to identify breakings of the conversational maxims in the crime drama Blindspot and to study which maxims are broken, for what purpose the maxims are broken and if there are any changes to the number of maxims broken between different seasons of the series. The results show that the maxim of quantity is most frequently broken in the episode from season one and the maxim of quality is broken most frequently in the episodes from season three and five. Some of the reasons for the breakings are sarcasm used for a comedic effect, not giving enough information to keep the viewers in suspense and as a way to change the subject or focus of a conversation.

Abstract:
The human visual system possesses a remarkable ability to recognize shading patterns and attribute them to 3D shape. In this thesis statistical differences between shading and non-shading patterns are studied.First, a formal analysis of the regions around shading maxima is presented. Second-order approximations of these regions are derived and compared to the approximations of the corresponding surface regions. The analysis supports the observation that the regions around the shading maxima tend to have elongated intensity structure.
Then, statistical properties of the regions around the maxima are discussed and related to the analytic properties of the shading maxima. The second-order coefficients of the shading images are estimated and their distributions are compared with those of the surfaces and the non-shading images. Distinctive properties of the distributions obtained from the shading images can be captured by their normalized third central moment, or skewness coefficient. It's thus concluded that the latter coefficient provides a cue to shading identification.

Daouti, Panagiota. "Homère et Platon chez Maxime de Tyr." Thesis, Montpellier 3, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015MON30042.
Abstract:
Le retour à la littérature classique et l'héritage culturel sont omniprésents dans les œuvres littéraires, rhétoriques ou philosophiques de l'époque de Maxime de Tyr. Maxime suit cette tradition puisque dans ses Dialexeis sont éparpillées des références aux auteurs qui le précèdent. Maxime est influencé surtout par Homère et Platon comme on constate en lisant ses Dialexeis, où il montre sa prédilection pour les deux grands maîtres. Quant à Homère on trouve des citations utilisées pour illustrer ou pour compléter le sens d'un ensemble des phrases du texte de Maxime. Quelquefois Maxime procède à un léger changement dans les vers homériques afin de les adapter à l'entité syntaxique de son propre texte. Il y aussi des références aux noms ou aux épisodes pris dans les épopées homériques. Maxime utilise aussi l'allégorie homérique pour véhiculer des idées ou développer sa pensée philosophique.L'influence de Platon est profonde et s'étend à tous les domaines de la pensée de Maxime : politique, religieux, artistique, mais surtout philosophique. L'auteur des Dialexeis se trouve devant le problème épineux de la réconciliation de la philosophie avec la poésie. C'est en utilisant les citations des épopées homériques que Maxime trouve une manière de parler des conceptions philosophiques. Autrement dit, les exemples pris dans le texte d'Homère sont surtout utilisés afin que Maxime rende plus claire et explicite sa parole chaque fois qu'il expose ses idées philosophiques. Maxime prouve dans l'œuvre même, qu'un poète peut être aussi un grand philosophe, scellant ainsi la coexistence et arrivant à la réconciliation entre Homère et PlatonThe return to the classical literature and the evocation of cultural heritage are ubiquitous in the works of literature or those related to rhetoric and philosophy during the first centuries of the Roman Empire. Maximus of Tyr, who lived in the time of Commodus', follows this trend, as his Orations are full of citations or references to the works of his predecessors. However, he shows his preference for Homer and Plato, as their influence is evident in the Orations. As far as Homer is concerned, we mostly find citations that illustrate Maximus' text or complete the meaning of a series of phrases. Sometimes Maximus intervenes in Homer's text in order to adapt it to his own. Moreover, we can find references to names or to precise moments of the Iliad or the Odyssey, which are dispersed in the Orations. Maximus uses, also, the Homeric allegory in order to convey his thoughts about some philosophical issues such as the harmonious style of life, the pursuit of human felicity and the cultivation of a virtuous character. Plato's influence is also profound and it is extended to a wide range of Maximus' interests: politics, religion, art and mainly philosophy. Furthermore, in an effort to reconcile poetry and philosophy, Maximus uses the Homeric citations so as to develop more explicitly his philosophical conceptions, which, otherwise, would have stayed obscure. In this way he proves that a poet can be at the same time a great philosopher sealing the coexistence and bridging the differences between Homeric poetry and Platonic philosophy

Abstract:
Although conversations in television shows are supposed to mimic and represent everyday natural speech, they are written for a specific purpose. The aim of this paper is to find out what maxims are flouted the most in the television series Firefly and analyse what the effects of these flouts are. Presented here is an analysis of how scripted conversation in the aforementioned television show is constructed. By applying Grice's cooperative principle and his theories on flouting and implicatures, certain patterns emerge that show recurring uses of flouts for specific effects. The results are based on a study of three episodes of the television series Firefly. The results show that the maxim of quality is flouted the most and that the distribution of flouts between characters is somewhat uneven. This suggests that the use of flouts has to do with the personalities of the different characters.

Abstract:
When we converse we constantly fail to observe the rules of conversation in order to simplify and make dialogues more effective. The scriptwriters who work with TV shows use non-observances of maxims in order to evoke different feelings from their viewers. The aim of this paper was to investigate how frequently non-observances of maxims occurred in the TV shows Desperate Housewives and That 70’s Show. I examined where and why they were used as well as how often flouting was used compared to violations. The base of the study was a drama and a comedy show.
Research has shown that the maxim of relevance is most frequently used to create different comical or dramatic situations. The scriptwriters have their characters ignore what is relevant to the situations in order to make them come off as flustered, odd and stupid in humorous situations and as mysterious, cowardly, respectful or bold in dramatic situations. Also research shows that flouting occurs more frequently than violations when it comes to breaking maxims. Violations occur most often with the maxim of quality when the characters lie to mislead in order to direct blame away from him/herself. In Conclusion, this investigation has shown that non-observances of maxims are important for scriptwriters in order to create humorous and dramatic situations in verbal interaction.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to analyze the rule breaking of Gricean conversational Maxims and how it is used in the TV series The Office. The character Dwight has been in focus, and the main goal of this study is to find out if and how he violates the Gricean Maxims in conversations. The study is based on written transcripts from four episodes of this TV series. The character Dwight's conversations from these episodes have been analyzed in order to see how one or more of the four conversational maxims (quantity, quality, manner and relation) were dealt with. The maxim that Dwight turned out to break the most was the maxim of relation. Dwight is a character that contributes to this series by repeatedly breaking the conversational maxims.Syftet med denna studie är att analysera överträdelser av Grices samtalsmaximer och hur de används in tv-serien The Office. Karaktären Dwight är i fokus och målet med studien är att ta reda på om och hur han bryter mot Grices samtalsmaximer. Studien baseras på fyra transkriberade avsnitt från denna tv-serie. Dwights konversationer i dessa fyra olika avsnitt har analyserats för att se hur en eller flera av konversationsmaximerna (kvantitet, kvalitet, uppförande och relation) har behandlats. Den maxim som Dwight visade sig bryta mot mest var relationsmaximen. Dwight är en karaktär som bidrar till denna humorserie genom att frekvent bryta mot samtalsmaximerna.

Abstract:
Les termes logos (raison) et tropos forment un couple qui est très significatif pour la pensée de Maxime le Confesseur (c. 580-662). Dans notre thèse, nous examinons les contextes dans lesquels Maxime le Confesseur emploie le terme tropos (mode) soit à l’intérieur du couple logos-tropos, soit de façon autonome. Nous ne traitons pas le concept de tropos comme un terme invariant intégré à une doctrine uniforme, mais plutôt comme un moyen ou un «outil» conceptuel qui aide Maxime à résoudre des problèmes très différents dans plusieurs domaines de sa pensée. Nous examinons les différents contextes dans lesquels Maxime le Confesseur utilise le couple logos-tropos ou le seul terme tropos, comme, par exemple, la logique, la relation entre l’universalité et la particularité, la théologie trinitaire, la question du mal et la Théodicée, la cosmologie, la théorie du progrès spirituel, la théorie de l’achèvement ontologique, la christologie et l’eschatologie. Dans chaque cas, nous insistons sur les termes qui sont déterminés par le mot tropos et sur les relations de contraste, d’opposition ou tout simplement de distinction qui se forment entre eux. Nous examinons également le champ lexical des mots qui sont relatifs au terme tropos. En général, le logos exprime la stabilité et la permanence qui est nécessaire pour qu’il y ait un sens contemplé par le sage, alors que le tropos signifie une modalité qui ouvre la possibilité de contingence, de surprise et d’innovation à l’intérieur de l’Histoire. L’emphase est plutôt mise sur le fait que le tropos est exactement une modalité qui peut coexister avec le logos sans l’annuler, altérer ou corrompreThe terms logos (reason) and tropos (mode) form a very important couple in the thought of Maximus the Confessor (c. 580-662). In our PhD thesis, we are examining the contexts in which Maximus the Confessor is using the term tropos (mode) either inside the couple logos-tropos or independently. We are not developing the concept of tropos as a uniform doctrine, but we are examining it mostly as a means or as a conceptual “tool” which helps Maximus solving very different problems in diverse domains of his thought. We thus examine the use of the term tropos in contexts such as logic, the philosophical relation between universality and particularity, Trinitarian theology, the question of evil or Theodicy, cosmology, the stages of spiritual progress, the theory of the ontological actualization of beings, Christology and eschatology. In each case, we are insisting in the terms which are determined by the word tropos, the terms which are determined by the word logos, as well as the relations of contrast, opposition or simple distinction between them. We are equally examining the lexical field that is related to the term tropos. In general, logos expresses the stability and the permanence that are necessary for the existence of a meaning which could be contemplated by the philosopher, whereas tropos means a modality which opens a space for contingence, surprise and innovation inside History. The emphasis is placed on the fact that tropos is exactly a modality which can coexist with logos without annulling, altering or corrupting it
