Cyprien Ayer (1825–1888), figure marquante de la vie intellectuelle en Suisse au XIXe siècle, est l'auteur d’une vaste œuvre scientifique, journalistique et littéraire. Parmi ses travaux linguistiques les plus importants il faut mentionner sa Grammaire comparée de la langue française (1876; nombreuses rééditions), sa Phonologie de la langue française (1875), et son Introduction à l’étude des dialectes du pays (1878). Ce dernier texte, ouvrage pionnier dans le domaine des études francoprovençales, est réimprimé ici, précédé d'une introduction. Le présent recueil regroupe des contributions qui concernent l’œuvre linguistique et littéraire d’Ayer et ses rapports avec une autre figure-clef de la vie littéraire et intellectuelle en Suisse, Henri-Frédéric Amiel. Le recueil s’ouvre par une étude de la carrière d’Ayer et par une bibliographie de ses travaux scientifiques (grammaire, dialectologie, pédagogie, économie, géographie, statistique, politique, ethnographie).

BACKGROUND: Accurate projection of implanted subdural electrode contacts in presurgical evaluation of pharmacoresistant epilepsy cases by invasive EEG is highly relevant. Linear fusion of CT and MRI images may display the contacts in the wrong position due to brain shift effects. OBJECTIVE: A retrospective study in five patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy was performed to evaluate whether an elastic image fusion algorithm can provide a more accurate projection of the electrode contacts on the pre-implantation MRI as compared to linear fusion. METHODS: An automated elastic image fusion algorithm (AEF), a guided elastic image fusion algorithm (GEF), and a standard linear fusion algorithm (LF) were used on preoperative MRI and post-implantation CT scans. Vertical correction of virtual contact positions, total virtual contact shift, corrections of midline shift and brain shifts due to pneumencephalus were measured. RESULTS: Both AEF and GEF worked well with all 5 cases. An average midline shift of 1.7mm (SD 1.25) was corrected to 0.4mm (SD 0.8) after AEF and to 0.0mm (SD 0) after GEF. Median virtual distances between contacts and cortical surface were corrected by a significant amount, from 2.3mm after LF to 0.0mm after AEF and GEF (p<.001). Mean total relative corrections of 3.1 mm (SD 1.85) after AEF and 3.0mm (SD 1.77) after GEF were achieved. The tested version of GEF did not achieve a satisfying virtual correction of pneumencephalus. CONCLUSION: The technique provided a clear improvement in fusion of pre- and post-implantation scans, although the accuracy is difficult to evaluate.
