Carnets de terrain et Nouveaux Indiens) du document de voyage comme objet textuel qui associe science et littérature, fiction et documentaire pour produire des formes complexes de connaissances Des cheminements hybrides semblent permettre à des formes de connaissances de circuler à partir d’un document de voyage qui tente de rendre compte d’une expérience. Le document de voyage peut alors être envisagé comme un document matériau qui contient en puissance la capacité de générer d’autres documents. Comme un rhizome dont n’importe quel point peut être connecté avec n’importe quel autre, ce premier document (carnet d’ethnologue, ou journal de bord par exemple) qui contient des informations scientifiques entre en connexion avec d’autres documents hétérogènes (édition d’un journal de voyage destiné au public, article scientifique rédigé à partir du carnet ou du compte-rendu d’expédition, roman rédigé à partir de ce premier document, théorie scientifique, performance…) pour faire circuler des connaissances.

Study, from a selection of eleven travel documents of the sixteenth century to the twentieth century (Léry. L’Histoire d’un voyage faict en la terre du Brésil (1578). Bougainville. Voyage autour du monde. Lapérouse Voyage autour du monde sur l’Astrolabe et la Boussole (1785-1788). Baudin. Journal du voyage aux Antilles de La Belle Angélique (1796-1798). Darwin.

Field Notes and Nouveaux Indiens ) document travel as text object that combines science and literature, fiction and documentary to produce complex forms of knowledge The paths seem to allow hybrid forms of knowledge to flow from a travel document which attempts to account for experience. The travel document can then be regarded as a document which contains material in power the ability to generate other documents. As a rhizome which any point can be connected with any other, the first document (book ethnologist, or logbook, for example) that contains scientific information comes into connection with other heterogeneous documents (edition of a travel journal for the public, scientific article written from the book or the minutes…

▼ The amount of data we are dealing with is being generated at an astronomical pace. With the rapid technological advances in the field of data storage techniques, storing and transmitting copious amounts of data has become very easy and hassle-free. However, exploring those abundant data and finding the interesting ones has always been a huge integral challenge and cumbersome process to people in all industrial sectors. A model to rank data by interest will help in saving the time spent on the large amount of data. In this research we concentrate specifically on ranking the text documents in corpora according to ``interestingness'' We design a state-of-the-art empirical model to rank documents according to ``interestingness''. The model is cost-efficient, fast and automated to an extent which requires minimal human intervention. We identify different categories of documents based on the word-usage pattern which in turn classifies them as being interesting, mundane or anomalous documents. The model is a novel approach which does not depend on the semantics of the words used in the document but is based on the repetition of words and rate of introduction of new words in the document. The model is a generic design which can be applied to a document corpus of any size from any domain. The model can be used to rank new documents introduced into the corpus. We formulate a couple of normalization techniques which can be used to neutralize the impact of variable document length. We use three approaches, namely dictionary-based data compression, analysis of the rate of new word occurrences and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). To test the model we use a variety of corpora namely: US Diplomatic Cable releases by Wikileaks, US Presidents State of Union Addresses, Open American National Corpus and 20 Newsgroups articles. The techniques have various pre-processing steps which are totally automated. We compare the results of the three techniques and examine the level of agreement between pair of techniques using a statistical method called the Jaccard coefficient. This approach can also be used to detect the unusual and anomalous documents within the corpus. The results also contradict the assumptions made by Simon and Yule in deriving an equation for a general text generation model.

▼ As digital books begin to take center stage in our lives the importance of the old printed book still lingers on. A large number of the books printed on the paper media still have much to offer to readers for various reasons (e.g. less famous authors of prose, old books with interesting and original problems). To help individuals in digitizing and reusing their physical and digital books we decided to build a framework that will help people convert physical and digital books to other formats taking into consideration four dimensions: learning outcomes or methodology, target device characteristics, representation and the user. Our focus is on textbooks in history. Consequently, we do not consider some problems like math formulas. This work has the potential of helping people deal with the huge backlog of physical books that can become invisible as the digital books take off. To show that our platform can help in repurposing books for student study activities, we have developed some transformations. The transformations we have implemented shows that the framework can be used to add study aids to books, optimize books for a target platform (e-reader device and application combination), and supplement available features of a target platform and maintain consistency across various audio/visual devices and e-book formats. One of the important steps in the thesis was determining the study activities that we would support as examples in our implementation. We have chosen to implement support for the survey, question, read and review activities of the SQ3R reading technique. We have also implemented support for additional activities like search. The chosen activities and the support implemented for these activities are examples and are not meant to be complete. Another important decision point was to decide which target platforms (e-reader device and application combination) we need to support. We decided to choose a few representatives and leave the rest as future work. The target devices were selected so as to have a variety of device capabilities like screen size, display technology (e.g. e-ink, VGA), and user interaction styles (e.g. touch-based, button based) combined with application capabilities (e.g. audio only, visual only, audio visual, grayscale, and color). The devices selected were: iPad, iPod, iPhone, Kindle 3rd generation, Kindle Fire, Sony PRS and a laptop. The e-reader applications are the ones that are available for these devices.

Thesis (MPhil (Afrikaans and Dutch)) – University of Stellenbosch, 2009.

This study investigates the role of that which the style concept people‐orientation plays with regard to image formation and image projection in documentation, with specific reference to the Stellenbosch University’s registration forms. The goal of this study was firstly to determine how the concept people‐orientation could be operationalized within this specific case study. Regarding image formation and image projection, the researcher aimed to determine (a) what students’ current image of the University Stellenbosch is, (b) if students regard peopleorientation as an important style aspect within communication and (c) if the presence or absence of people‐orientation has an effect on the image of an institution. The Integrated Model for Image Formation and Projection (IFP‐model), whereupon this study is based, suggests that different messages in a document can have an effect on the image of an institution. These messages can however be manipulated in order to determine or adjust the image of an institution. In reference to this, this study investigated the effects of a presence or lack of people‐orientation as an aspect of style in communication. The researcher defines people‐orientation as a concept that bears reference to those aspects which directly or indirectly writes the human role player (including the writer and the reader) into the text. In other words, it refers to communication that puts the role of the person in the foreground of the communication situation. The concept of people‐orientation is however very complex in the sense that it can be created by a number of document design aspects. Thus the best way to test people‐orientation was to identify a number of operationalizeable design aspects. The researcher selected five style aspects which at core has relevance to people‐orientation. These five aspects were forms of address, reference to self, the use of passive or active voice, the use of politeness and empathy markers and the use of graphical illustration, which for the purpose of this study also classifies as a stylistic signal. Thirty‐two respondents from the Humaniora faculties were selected to participate in this study. Although the faculty of Economical and Management Sciences and the Faculty of Law traditionally fall under this division, only the Faculty of Theology, the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Education were used. Gender and race were incorporated as independent variables of this study. Respondents’ attitudes were tested using interviews as the primary methodology, aided by informal questionnaires as secondary methodology. Questionnaire results were however not processed by use of the traditional statistical methods, mainly because the sample of the study was too small. These results were only functional as a basis from which tendencies could be identified. Interview results had a very multi‐dimensional quality and the researcher therefore decided that it would be best to discuss…

Thesis (MPhil (Afrikaans and Dutch)) – University of Stellenbosch, 2010.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this study the balance between relational and expressive messages on the image formation and projection of a document is studied. To study the effect of these messages, a case study was done on one of the donation letters of Stellenbosch University (SU). The purpose of the research was firstly to established what the image formation and projection of the SU was. The quality of the SU’s image and communication had to be determined. Secondly, the degree of attachment between die SU and respondents was measured to see if it had any influence on the way that they perceived the SU. The IFP-model (Image Formation and Projection model) served as a theoretical basis for the study – the model postulates that various document design aspects and concepts such as image, identitity and culture influence each other. The model was then used to a) identify problematic areas in the documentation b) form the basis of the questionnaire and c) explain the connection between the image formation and projection, and the style aspects in die document. The third goal of the research was to operationalize the relational and expressive messages by manipulating specific style aspects. The researcher had determined that the two messages were imbalanced in the original donation letter, to the extent that the reader did not have any real ‘presence’ in the document. The researcher then proceeded to design a second version of the donation letter, but with the relational and expressive messages brought into balance. Alumni of the SU were chosen as respondents for the study. The Stellenbosch Foundation distributed the questionnaires, along with the two versions of the letter. The researcher had decided upon e-mail as a distribution channel to discount any geographical bias. Two variables were used: Race (coloured and white persons) and age. Younger than 35 years of age, and 35 years of age or older than 35 were chosen as arbitrary cutoff points for respondents. The results were processed statistically so that trends and data could be displayed clearly. Results showed that alumni do have a positive image of the SU, as well as its communication. Alumni also feel reasonably connected to the SU. A strong preference was however shown for the redesigned donation letter, wherein the two messages are balanced out. This means that the SU’s image is projected in a more positive way in a document where the reader has a bigger presence.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study determines whether media reporting has any influence on members’ image formation processes of the Dutch Reformed Church (DRC). The aim of this study was (a) to determine respondents’ attitudes towards the Church, (b) to determine respondents’ image of the Church, (c) to establish whether media reporting has any influence on members’ image formation of the DRC, and (d) to define such influence, if any. This study is based on the Integrated Communication Model for Image Formation and Projection (the IFP model) as theoretical foundation. The IFP model suggests that certain document design aspects, such as content, style, structure and graphics, may influence a company or organisation’s image. Following on the IFP model this study determined the effect that rhetorical content devices in media reports have on DRC members’ image of the Church. The rhetorical devices that were analysed are direct criticism, contrast, laden words, implication phenomena, sarcasm and insinuation. The study investigated how these rhetorical devices are employed to have a harmful effect on the image of the DRC. A total of 127 respondents, all of them DRC members, were selected from four congregations in the Boland region. The congregations are situated in Worcester (rural), Malmesbury (semi-rural), Paarl (semi-urban) and Durbanville (urban). Gender and age were incorporated as independent variables of this study. Members’ attitude and image with regard to the DRC and media reporting were determined by means of a questionnaire survey as primary methodology, while the possible influence of media reporting was established through a text analysis (rhetorical discourse analysis, or RDA) – another primary methodology. Professor Martin Kidd from Stellenbosch University’s Centre for Statistical Consultation prepared the statistical processing of the survey responses. The results are depicted by means of histograms and other statistical methods. The results show that members’ attitudes towards, and image of, the Church are less positive than what the Church may have hoped for: Members generally have a cautiously positive image of the Church. In addition, results indicate that media reporting does indeed influence the image formation processes of the DRC; that this influence is negative, and that it contributes to a less positive image of the Church.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie bepaal of mediaberiggewing enige invloed op die beeldvormingsprosesse van individue van die Nederduitse Gereformeerde (NG) Kerk het. Die doel van die ondersoek was (a) om respondente se houding teenoor die Kerk te bepaal, (b) om respondente se beeld van die NG Kerk te bepaal, (c) om vas te stel of mediaberiggewing enige invloed op lidmate se beeldvormingsprosesse van die NG Kerk het, en (d) om sodanige invloed, indien enige, te omskryf.

Thesis (MPhil (Afrikaans and Dutch))University of Stellenbosch, 2010.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of bureaucratese in government institutions‟ external communication and the effect that it has on the institution‟s image. Furthermore the impact that this communication has on the institution‟s relationship with it‟s audience should also be explored and the notion that it creates a power distance relationship should be examined. Firstly the Communication Model for Image Formation and Projection (De Stadler, s.a.1) is discussed to explain the connection between communication and institutional image. Then relevant concepts, for example, image, communication, bureaucratese and power distance are explained. Secondly, bureaucratese is explained as a register and is then divided into it‟s different aspects. These aspects relate to style choices as informed by the literature on the Plain Language Movement. This set of aspects or dimensions then creates the criteria for the analysis of 16 texts. This study does not only use qualitative data, but also quantitative data and therefore a questionaire was sent out to 80 respondents. The purpose of the questionaire was to retrieve data that couldn‟t be obtained from the qualitative data. These aspects were the image of the institution and also the relationship between the institution and it‟s audience. The results show that bureacratese does have a negative impact on an institution‟s image. It also shows that the use of burocratic language creates a power distance relationship between an institution and it‟s audience. Language (in this case burocratic language) becomes an instrument through which the culture of an institutions is transferred from inside the institution onto it‟s audience.

AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie is om uit te vind of die gebruik van burokratees in regeringsinstansies se eksterne kommunikasie die betrokke instansie se beeld beïnvloed. Daar word ook gekyk na die effek van dié kommunikasie op ‟n instansie se verhouding met sy teikengroep en of ‟n magsafstandverhouding op hierdie wyse bewerkstellig word. Die invloed van die verhouding tussen die instansie en die instansie se teikengroep word dan ondersoek. Daardeur word vasgestel hoe die instansie se beeld by die teikengroep beïnvloed word. Eerstens word die Communication Model for Image Formation and Projection (De Stadler, s.a.1) bespreek om sodoende die verbande tussen beeld en kommunikasie te verduidelik. Daarna word gekyk na konsepte soos beeld, kommunikasie, burokratees en magsafstand. Tweedens word burokratees as register beskryf en die verskillende aspekte van hierdie register uitgelê. Die bespreking van die verskillende aspekte van burokratees word gesteun deur die literatuur oor die Plain Language Movement. Laasgenoemde aspekte van die register bepaal dan die kriteria waarvolgens 16 tekste geanaliseer word. Omdat hierdie studie van kwalitatiewe en kwantitatiewe data gebruik maak, word ook ŉ vraelys uitgestuur aan 80 respondente. Die…

▼ Digital collections are growing exponentially in size as the information age takes a firm grip on all aspects of society. As a result Information Retrieval (IR) has become an increasingly important area of research. It promises to provide new and more effective ways for users to find information relevant to their search intentions. Document clustering is one of the many tools in the IR toolbox and is far from being perfected. It groups documents that share common features. This grouping allows a user to quickly identify relevant information. If these groups are misleading then valuable information can accidentally be ignored. There- fore, the study and analysis of the quality of document clustering is important. With more and more digital information available, the performance of these algorithms is also of interest. An algorithm with a time complexity of O(n2) can quickly become impractical when clustering a corpus containing millions of documents. Therefore, the investigation of algorithms and data structures to perform clustering in an efficient manner is vital to its success as an IR tool. Document classification is another tool frequently used in the IR field. It predicts categories of new documents based on an existing database of (doc- ument, category) pairs. Support Vector Machines (SVM) have been found to be effective when classifying text documents. As the algorithms for classifica- tion are both efficient and of high quality, the largest gains can be made from improvements to representation. Document representations are vital for both clustering and classification. Representations exploit the content and structure of documents. Dimensionality reduction can improve the effectiveness of existing representations in terms of quality and run-time performance. Research into these areas is another way to improve the efficiency and quality of clustering and classification results. Evaluating document clustering is a difficult task. Intrinsic measures of quality such as distortion only indicate how well an algorithm minimised a sim- ilarity function in a particular vector space. Intrinsic comparisons are inherently limited by the given representation and are not comparable between different representations. Extrinsic measures of quality compare a clustering solution to a “ground truth” solution. This allows comparison between different approaches. As the “ground truth” is created by humans it can suffer from the fact that not every human interprets a topic in the same manner. Whether a document belongs to a particular topic or not can be subjective.

▼ Since the introduction of Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) in 2008, the number of MOOCs offered by universities has increased enormously. Over 700 universities offer a total of 5924 MOOCs. Each MOOC holds a sequence of 10 to 140 videos and are meant to help online learners understand a given topic. These videos are intended to be watched in a specific, sequential order. This order can be seen as a chain where video 1 provides enough prerequisite knowledge for video 2, video 2 for video 3 and so on. In theory that is fine, however, this order is not necessarily the only ideal order to watch videos in. The online learner might want to take shortcuts through the MOOC's videos, find additional information on the topic in another video or explore what other subjects are available to study. In other words, the online learner could benefit from improved navigational features to better explore the surrounding relevant videos. By branching out the viewing order towards videos in other MOOCs, we add alternative sequence orders as possible learning paths for the online learner. This can help online learners plan out an alternative sequence order based on their own interests and backgrounds. The chain-like sequence order as described above, where one video provides the prerequisite knowledge for its successor, is crucial for creating alternative sequence orders. When video 1 from MOOC A is found to be similar to video 5 from MOOC B, it can be assumed that video 1 provides the prerequisite knowledge for video 6 in MOOC B. Similar videos between the MOOCs are found by comparing their transcripts, titles and durations. Based on this similarity a new sequence order is set up from one video to its similar counterparts’ successor video. We structure these alternative sequence orders by representing the videos from MOOCs as nodes into a graph and connect them with directed edges that represent the sequence order between videos. Several methods for finding similarities have been compared to find the most accurate way of comparing transcriptions where the method doc2vec yields the most accurate similarity cases. Evaluation based on a user study shows that our method creates alternative sequence orders that have 58.7% positive user ratings. This can be compared to semi-randomly picked sequence orders and the original sequence order defined in the MOOC, which have 8.0% and 76% positive user ratings respectively. This shows that the alternative sequence orders are significantly better than the semi-randomly picked sequence orders, and comparable but not as good as the original sequence order defined in the MOOC.

▼ Document summarization is the task of automatically generating a shorter version of a document or multiple documents while retaining the most important information. The task has received much attention in the natural language processing community due to its potential for various information access applications. Examples include tools that digest textual content (e.g., news, social media, reviews), answer questions, or provide recommendations. Summarization approaches are dedicated to processing single or multiple documents as well as creating extractive or abstractive summaries. In extractive summarization, summaries are formed by copying and concatenating the most important spans (usually sentences) from the input text, while abstractive approaches are able to generate summaries using words or phrases that are not in the original text. A core module within summarization is how to represent documents and distill information for downstream tasks (e.g., abstraction or extraction). Thanks to the popularity of neural network models and their ability to learn continuous representations, many new systems have been proposed for document modeling and summarization in recent years. This thesis investigates different approaches with neural network models to address the document summarization problem. We develop several novel neural models considering extractive and abstractive approaches for both single-document and multi-document scenarios. We first investigate how to represent a single document with a randomly initialized neural network. Contrary to previous approaches that ignore document structure when encoding the input, we propose a structured attention mechanism, which can impose a structural bias of document-level dependency trees when modeling a document, generating more powerful document representations. We first apply this model to the task of document classification, and subsequently to extractive single-document summarization using an iterative refinement process to learn more complex tree structures. Experimental results on both tasks show that the structured attention mechanism achieves competitive performance. Very recently, pretrained language models have achieved great success on several natural language understanding tasks by training large neural models on an enormous corpus with a language modeling objective. These models learn rich contextual information and to some extent are able to learn the structure of the input text. While summarization systems could in theory also benefit from pretrained language models, there are some potential obstacles to applying these pretrained models to document summarization tasks. The second part of this thesis focuses on how to represent a single document with pretrained language models. Beyond previous approaches that learn solely from the summarization dataset, this thesis proposes a framework for using pretrained language models as encoders for both extractive and abstractive summarization. The framework achieves state-of-the-art results on three datasets. Finally, in…

▼ Document summarization is the task of automatically generating a shorter version of a document or multiple documents while retaining the most important information. The task has received much attention in the natural language processing community due to its potential for various information access applications. Examples include tools that digest textual content (e.g., news, social media, reviews), answer questions, or provide recommendations. Summarization approaches are dedicated to processing single or multiple documents as well as creating extractive or abstractive summaries. In extractive summarization, summaries are formed by copying and concatenating the most important spans (usually sentences) from the input text, while abstractive approaches are able to generate summaries using words or phrases that are not in the original text. A core module within summarization is how to represent documents and distill information for downstream tasks (e.g., abstraction or extraction). Thanks to the popularity of neural network models and their ability to learn continuous representations, many new systems have been proposed for document modeling and summarization in recent years. This thesis investigates different approaches with neural network models to address the document summarization problem. We develop several novel neural models considering extractive and abstractive approaches for both single-document and multi-document scenarios. We first investigate how to represent a single document with a randomly initialized neural network. Contrary to previous approaches that ignore document structure when encoding the input, we propose a structured attention mechanism, which can impose a structural bias of document-level dependency trees when modeling a document, generating more powerful document representations. We first apply this model to the task of document classification, and subsequently to extractive single-document summarization using an iterative refinement process to learn more complex tree structures. Experimental results on both tasks show that the structured attention mechanism achieves competitive performance. Very recently, pretrained language models have achieved great success on several natural language understanding tasks by training large neural models on an enormous corpus with a language modeling objective. These models learn rich contextual information and to some extent are able to learn the structure of the input text. While summarization systems could in theory also benefit from pretrained language models, there are some potential obstacles to applying these pretrained models to document summarization tasks. The second part of this thesis focuses on how to represent a single document with pretrained language models. Beyond previous approaches that learn solely from the summarization dataset, this thesis proposes a framework for using pretrained language models as encoders for both extractive and abstractive summarization. The framework achieves state-of-the-art results on three datasets. Finally, in…

▼ Ranking is an algorithm that defines an ordering among objects. This thesis will address the challenge of ranking structured documents. Traditional ranking methods involve link analysis, relevancy measure, or manual assessment; the aim is to rank the “important” document higher than the less “important” documents. The meaning of the term “important” would need to be defined. For example, one may rank the documents according to their popularity, by considering the number of documents which are linked to it. One may consider the “quality” of the documents, and rank the documents according to this “quality” criterion. Or one may consider the “relevancy” of the documents, and rank documents higher the more relevant they are to a given situation. However, most of these methods are not taking into consideration the contents of the document. The ”popularity” and the contents of the document are actually inseparable in the study of document ranking according to an ”important” criterion. The content of document as well as its structural properties can be extracted and the structural properties can be expressed as a graph representation, involving nodes (representing word tokens), and links (links among the word tokens). Note that in this representation, the word tokens are merely “symbols”; they are not endowed with meanings, thus avoiding the tedious task of providing word tokens with meanings. The contextual information is inferred from the statistical properties of words which co-occurred in the same order, and in similar context within the given text corpus. This graph representation is called a concept link graph. In this thesis, we propose a novel representation called a graph of graphs (GoGs) representation to describe the structured documents, which may be connected by hyperlinks or citations. A GoGs is a hierarchy of graphs, the top level graph is the concept link graph, and the nodes in this top level concept link graph can be described by other concept link graphs which represent the documents which linked into the top level document, and so on. Such a graph of graphs representation can be very useful to model the inter-linking of documents by encoding the structural information at different levels, such as the relationships among documents, relationships among paragraphs within a document, relationships among words within a paragraph of a document, etc. This representation allows us to include document properties and contents to different depth, so that it can be used in different machine learning applications. We then propose…

Cette thèse porte sur l’œuvre de Huysmans allant de ses premiers écrits jusqu’à la veille de sa mésentente avec Zola, À Rebours étant en cela le point de disjonction entre une première période de formation et la suite d’expériences littéraires multiples dont la méthode naturaliste est garant d’unité. Car si l’écriture naturaliste fut, à un moment donné de la vie de Huysmans une forme d’initiation, elle n’a pas cessé d’être une manière de penser et l’auteur se réclame de cette part naturaliste même dans ses romans les plus mystiques. Huysmans veut donc écrire un livre en se gardant d’idéaliser le monde, c’est-à-dire un livre anti-romanesque. En cela il s’inscrit en pleine mouvance naturaliste. Car, bannir les intrusions de l’auteur, au nom de l’objectivité expérimentale est l’un des fondements du courant naturaliste. Mais, résultat paradoxal, en poussant le discours théorique du Roman expérimental jusqu’au bout de sa logique, l’écriture de Huysmans va aboutir à une sorte d’éclatement de la structure traditionnelle du roman, tel que va l’attester quelques années plus tard l’écriture d’À Rebours. En effet, Huysmans tire parti à sa manière de la théorie naturaliste de Zola. Il a très tôt compris que cette théorie va aboutir à une impasse et qu’il faut aller aux confins de cette expérience pour pouvoir passer à d’autres. Mais cette étape de sa formation l’a définitivement marqué, surtout comme méthode de documentation. L’expérience littéraire de Huysmans pendant cette décennie est symptomatique d’un état plus général et laisse comprendre que le roman repose sur un terrain mouvant.

This thesis deals with the work of Huysmans ranging from his first writings until the eve of his disagreement with Zola; À Rebours being the point of disjunction between an initial period of setting up and a series of multiple literary experiences where the naturalistic method is the guarantor of unity. For if naturalistic writing was, at some point in the life of Huysmans, a form of initiation, it has not ceased to be a way of thinking and the author claims this naturalist part even in his most mystical novels. Huysmans therefore wants to write a book while avoiding idealizing the world, that is to say, a non-fiction book. Through this, he takes part in the naturalist movement. For, to banish the intrusions of the author, in the name of experimental objectivity, is one of the foundations of the naturalist current. But paradoxically, by pushing the theoretical discourse of the experimental novel to the end of its logic, Huysmans' writing will lead to a sort of break-up of the traditional structure of the novel, as evidenced some years later the writing of À Rebours. Indeed, Huysmans draws in his own way Zola's naturalist theory. He quickly realized that this theory will lead to a dead end and that we must go to the edge of this experience in order to be able to pass on to others. But this stage of its formation definitely marked it, especially as a method of documentation. The literary experience of Huysmans during this decade is symptomatic…

▼ This thesis proposes a novel similarity measure that applies between documents. The proposed measure is also extended to gauge the similarity between two sets of documents. Furthermore, a new method of similarity measure implementation is assigned to detect near-duplicate documents. To measure the similarity between two documents is a significant utilization in the text field. Computing the similarity between two documents with respect to a feature, the appropriate features are selected to represent documents, and employed to measure the similarity. Therefore, a similarity measure between two documents may be interested about the feature appears in both documents or not, similarity degree between features, and the number of similar features. In this thesis, we propose a new similarity based on three cases of the feature appear conditions. Documentâs similarity differentiating is a significant operation in the text processing. For items of documents are huge, selecting the appropriate features to represent documents and facilitate this target are important. The documentation analysis usually retrieves the information sufficient to cover contents of the documents as a representative of documents feature. These features may be a single letter, word, sentence, or even whole paragraph. And the vector-space model is used to represent the features. To compute the similarity between two documents with respect to a feature, the major measure takes the following three cases into account: a) The feature appears in both documents, b) the feature appears in only one document, and c) the feature appears in none of the documents. Based on the research and to improve the performance of the similarity measure algorithms, our proposed measure is extended to gauge the similarity between two sets of documents. The effectiveness of our measure is evaluated on several real-world data sets for text classification and clustering problems, and the results are better than that achieved by other measures. For more consider of similarity measure, an implementation of detecting near-duplicate documents is also demonstrated. Based on similarity measure, we present a novel method for detecting near-duplicates from a large collection of documents. To distinguish near-duplicate documents is extremely important in the Internet era. If a search engine can effectively determine the near-duplicate documents will have access to reduce the number of duplicate documents retrieved, jointly and severally improve the search performance. For this purpose, we also propose a novel method for detecting near-duplicates from a huge collection of documents. Three major parts are involved in our method, feature selection, similarity measure, and discriminant derivation. To find near-duplicates to an input document, each sentence of the input document is fetched and preprocessed, the weight of each term is calculated, and the heavily weighted terms are selected to be the feature of the sentence. As a result, the input document is turned into a set of such features.

A pesquisa Palcos da Vida: o vídeo como documento do teatro investiga os processos de produção e de experimentação teatral, em Porto Alegre, nos anos 1980, a partir de registros em vídeo feitos pela TVE/RS. Nos últimos três anos daquela década, a emissora pública de televisão gravou diversos espetáculos teatrais que estavam em cartaz na cidade. Os programas, com o título Palcos da Vida, apresentavam cenas das peças e depoimentos de atores e diretores. Este trabalho lança um olhar sobre aquele momento histórico e, por meio das gravações, ressalta a importância do vídeo como documento do teatro. São enfocados os espetáculos A Mãe da Miss e o Pai do Punk (direção de Luiz Arthur Nunes), A Verdadeira História de Édipo Rei (Grupo Gregos & Troianos), Escondida na Calcinha (direção de Patsy Cecato), Império da Cobiça (Grupo TEAR), O Ferreiro e a Morte (Grupo Teatral Face & Carretos), Ostal (Tribo de Atuadores Ói Nóis Aqui Traveiz) e Tangos e Tragédias (de Hique Gomez e Nico Nicolaiewsky). O conjunto traça um painel das artes cênicas do Rio Grande do Sul, constituindo-se em um importante acervo sobre a produção e a encenação teatrais. Constata-se que o campo teatral estudado caracteriza-se pelo convívio de formas cênicas marcadas pela diversidade de propostas e estilos. A variedade de repertório e hibridismo de gêneros ocorre por meio de comédias, musicais e experiências estéticas da cena alternativa. Outro aspecto abordado é a relação entre teatro e televisão: os meios de comunicação como mediadores entre espetáculo e público. A pesquisa tem como base teórica obras de Marco De Marinis e Patrice Pavis. Como referenciais complementares, destaca-se o trabalho de nomes como Michel de Certeau, Sandra Pesavento, Dominique Wolton e Jesús Martín-Barbero.

La recherche Palcos da Vida1: le vidéo en tant que document sur le théâtre étudie les processus de la production et de l'expérimentation théâtrale, à Porto Alegre, aux années 80, à partir d'enregistrements vidéo réalisés par TVE/RS. Au cours des trois dernières années de cette décennie, la télévision publique a enregistré plusieurs représentations théâtrales qui ont été exposées dans la ville. L’émissions intitulée Palcos da Vida, présentait, à chaque fois scènes des spectacles et témoignages des commédiens et metteurs en scène. Ce mémoire jette un regard sur ce moment historique et, en enployant d'enregistrements, souligne l’importance du vidéo en tant que document sur le théâtre. Ce sont analysés les spetacles A Mãe da Miss e o Pai do Punk (mise en scène par Luiz Arthur Nunes), A Verdadeira História de Édipo Rei (Troupe Gregos & Troianos), Escondida na Calcinha (mise en scène par Patsy Cecato), Império da Cobiça (Troupe TEAR), O Ferreiro e a Morte (Troupe Face & Carretos), Ostal (Tribo de Atuadores Ói Nóis Aqui Traveiz) e Tangos e Tragédias (de Hique Gomez et Nico Nicolaiewsky).

▼ Nowadays, academic researchers maintain a personal library of papers, which they would like to organize based on their needs, e.g., research, projects, or courseware. Clustering techniques are often employed to achieve this goal by grouping the document collection into different topics. Unsupervised clustering does not require any user effort but only produces one universal output with which users may not be satisfied. Therefore, document clustering needs user input for guidance to generate personalized clusters for different users. Semi-supervised clustering incorporates prior information and has the potential to produce customized clusters. Traditional semi-supervised clustering is based on user supervision in the form of labeled instances or pairwise instance constraints. However, alternative forms of user supervision exist such as labeling features. For document clustering, document supervision involves labeling documents while feature supervision involves labeling features. Their joint of use has been called dual supervision. In this thesis, we first explore and propose a framework to use feature supervision for interactive feature selection by indicating whether a feature is useful for clustering. Second, we enhance the semi-supervised clustering with feature supervision using feature reweighting. Third, we propose a unified framework to combine document supervision and feature supervision through seeding. The newly proposed algorithms are evaluated using oracles and demonstrated to be more helpful in producing better clusters matching a single user's point of view than document clustering without any supervision and with only document supervision. Finally, we conduct a user study to confirm that different users have different understandings of the same document collection and prefer personalized clusters. At the same time, we demonstrate that document clustering with dual supervision is able to produce good personalized clusters even with noisy user input. Dual supervision is also demonstrated to be more effective in personalized clustering than no supervision or any single supervision. We also analyze users' behaviors during the user study and present suggestions for the design of document management software. Advisors/Committee Members: Dr. Mario A.

▼ ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In this study the focus is on the yearbooks of the Stellenbosch University with spesific reference to the consumer friendliness thereof. The researcher focused on the General Yearbook as well as an extract from the Humanities Yearbook of the Stellenbosch University. The goals of this study is to firstly determine (a) what is the present image that prospective students have of the Stellenbosch University, (b) if the SU Yearbooks have any impact on the image formation of these prospective students and (c) if so, what is the exact impact of the yearbooks on the image formation process of these students and how can it be improved. There are five important factors that measure the consumer friendliness of a document. These factors refer to the physical access to a document, the external structure, the ergonomy of a document, the style of writing and the cognitive access (understanding) of the text. These factors are closely tied to each other, but for the sake of this study, the researcher decided to focus only on the factors that directly influence the consumer friendliness of a document. The researcher decided on four stylistic aspects that influence the consumer friendliness of a document. These refer, firstly, to the external structure of a document with specific reference to the margins, headings and paragraphs in the chosen document. Secondly, the focus is on the information distribution of the document, i.e. the organisation and representation of information. The third aspect refers to forms of address in the document including both references to the writer as well as to the reader. The last aspect that is researched in this study is the style concept of formality. The researcher primarily focuses on difficult words and phrases in the text as well as the use of passive and active sentence constructions. The researcher also tests the concept of consumer-friendliness with a usability test based on an extract taken out of the Yearbook of Humanities. The researcher’s hypothesis claimes that the yearbooks of the Stellenbosch University are not consumer-friendly and that this can have a negative influence on the image that the prospective student forms of the SU. By determining this perception under the prospective students in the study, the researcher could find a suitable solution from the results to improve the image that the current documentation reflects and also to help the yearbooks of the SU fulfill its purpose which is to serve as an accessible information guide that is consumer-friendly. The Integrated Model for Formation and Projection, the IFP-model, on which this study is based, determines that different messages in a document can have an effect on the image of an institution. These messages can however be manipulated in order to determine or adjust the image of an institution. 123 respondents from the Paarl Gymnasium High School and Luckhoff High took part in this study. Gender and race were incorporated as independent variables in the study. These respondents’ attitudes were measured… Advisors/Committee Members: De Stadler, L. G., Stellenbosch University.
