Il primo capitolo prevede un’introduzione sul modello relazionale e sulle difficoltà che possono nascere nel tentativo di conformare le esigenze attuali di applicazioni ed utenti ai vincoli da esso imposti per lasciare poi spazio ad un’ampia descrizione del movimento NoSQL e delle tecnologie che ne fanno parte; il secondo capitolo sarà invece dedicato a MongoDB, alla presentazione delle sue caratteristiche e peculiarità, cercando di fornirne un quadro apprezzabile ed approfondito seppure non completo e del tutto esaustivo; infine nel terzo ed ultimo capitolo verrà approfondito il tema della ricerca di testo in MongoDB e verranno presentati e discussi i risultati ottenuti dai nostri test.

Il presente elaborato ha come oggetto la progettazione e lo sviluppo di una soluzione Elasticsearch come piattaforma di analisi in un contesto di Social Business Intelligence. L’elaborato si inserisce all’interno di un progetto del Business Intelligence Group dell’Università di Bologna, incentrato sul monitoraggio delle discussioni online sul tema politico nel periodo delle elezioni europee del 2014.

Il presente elaborato ha come oggetto l’analisi delle prestazioni e il porting di un sistema di SBI sulla distribuzione Hadoop di Cloudera. Nello specifico è stato fatto un porting dei dati del progetto WebPolEU. Successivamente si sono confrontate le prestazioni del query engine Impala con quelle di ElasticSearch che, diversamente da Oracle, sfrutta la stessa componente hardware (cluster).

Stress response can be considered a consequence of psychological or physiological threats to the human organism. Elevated cortisol secretion represents a biological indicator of subjective stress. The extent of subjectively experienced stress depends on individual coping strategies or self-regulation skills. Because of their experience with competitive pressure, athletes might show less pronounced biological stress responses during stressful events compared to non-athletes. In the present study, the short version of the Berlin Intelligence Structure Test, a paper-pencil intelligence test, was used as an experimental stressor. Cortisol responses of 26 female Swiss elite athletes and 26 female non-athlete controls were compared. Salivary free cortisol responses were measured 15 minutes prior to, as well as immediately before and after psychometric testing. In both groups, a significant effect of time was found: High cortisol levels prior to testing decreased significantly during the testing session. Furthermore, athletes exhibited reliably lower cortisol levels than non-athlete controls. No significant interaction effects could be observed. The overall pattern of results supports the idea that elite athletes show a less pronounced cortisol-related stress response due to more efficient coping strategies.
Recurrent antitopographic inhibition mediates competitive stimulus selection in an attention network

Topographically organized neurons represent multiple stimuli within complex visual scenes and compete for subsequent processing in higher visual centers. The underlying neural mechanisms of this process have long been elusive. We investigate an experimentally constrained model of a midbrain structure: the optic tectum and the reciprocally connected nucleus isthmi. We show that a recurrent antitopographic inhibition mediates the competitive stimulus selection between distant sensory inputs in this visual pathway. This recurrent antitopographic inhibition is fundamentally different from surround inhibition in that it projects on all locations of its input layer, except to the locus from which it receives input. At a larger scale, the model shows how a focal top-down input from a forebrain region, the arcopallial gaze field, biases the competitive stimulus selection via the combined activation of a local excitation and the recurrent antitopographic inhibition. Our findings reveal circuit mechanisms of competitive stimulus selection and should motivate a search for anatomical implementations of these mechanisms in a range of vertebrate attentional systems.
