La historia de la química: Pequeña guía para navegantes. Parte I: Viejas y nuevas tendencias

Esta guía consta de dos partes. En la primera se describe el desarrollo de la historia de la química como área de investigación. Se analizan tanto los primeros trabajos de los químicos-historiadores de los siglos XVIII como las obras de los autores del siglo XIX como Hermann Kopp. También se estudia la incipiente institucionalización en las primeras décadas del siglo XX, con especial atención a las obras de Hélène Metzger y Aldo Mieli. Finalmente, se discuten las principales tendencias actuales. En un próximo artículo se ofrecerá una lista ordenada de recursos bibliográficos y electrónicos para trabajar en historia de la química.

Learning hierarchical prototypes of motion time series for interactive systems

Abstract. For interactive systems, recognition, reproduction, and generalization of observed motion data are crucial for successful interaction. In this paper, we present a novel method for analysis of motion data that we refer to as K-OMM-trees. K-OMM-trees combine Ordered Means Models (OMMs) a model-based machine learning approach for time series with an hierarchical analysis technique for very large data sets, the K-tree algorithm. The proposed K-OMM-trees enable unsupervised prototype extraction of motion time series data with hierarchical data representation. After introducing the algorithmic details, we apply the proposed method to a gesture data set that includes substantial inter-class variations. Results from our studies show that K-OMM-trees are able to substantially increase the recognition performance and to learn an inherent data hierarchy with meaningful gesture abstractions.
