Cinematic Discourse as a Polycoded and Multimodal Phenomenon

Author(s):  
O. B. Palvanov

This article is devoted to the study of polycoded and multimodal nature of the cinematic discourse as a semiotically heterogeneous phenomenon. The cinematic discourse is interpreted as a complex integrated socially and culturally conditioned mental-communicative phenomenon that is characterized by a combination of lingual and non-lingual codes in its structure and is polycoded and multimodal by its nature. The paper analyzes the main approaches to the interpretation of the cinematic discourse as a creolized / polycoded / multimodal formation, proves the assumption that the cinematic discourse cannot be considered creolized, as it consists of more than two code systems that are in complex interaction aimed at constructing the meaning. The polycoded nature of the cinematic discourse focuses on the combination of several code systems attracted by filmmakers to construct the meaning. The multimodal nature of the cinematic discourse emphasizes its dynamic character and focuses on the addressee considering his cognitive and social features. The combination of different semiotic systems conduces to the film meaning construction.

AbstractThis paper is an analysis study on Dangdanggula Degung Song viewed with Antagonistic Dualism theory by Jakob Sumardjo. The song, textually, has a strong and dynamic character. To verify public views (especially the community of Tembang Sunda Cianjuran) that Dangdanggula Degung Song has a strong and dynamic character, the song has been tried to be analyzed from the point of ornament position and the contour of the melody. The result of this musical analysis study is then interpreted referring to the theory of Antagonistic Dualism by Jakob Sumardjo. Based on this interpretation, a paradoxical phenomenon was found as an illustration of Tritangtu pattern of Sundanese people. This is the subject matter to be discussed in this paper.Keywords: ornament, Dangdanggula Degung song, Tembang Sunda Cianjuran AbstrakTulisan ini merupakan kajian analisis terhadap lagu Dangdanggula Degung ditinjau berdasarkan teori Dualisme Antagonistik Jakob Sumardjo. Secara tekstual, lagu tersebut memiliki karakter gagah dan dinamis. Untuk membuktikan pendapat umum (khususnya komunitas Tembang Sunda Cianjuran) bahwa lagu Dangdanggula Degung memiliki karakter gagah  dan dinamis, maka lagu tersebut dicoba dianalisis dari sisi penempatan ornamen dan kontur melodinya. Hasil kajian analisis musikal ini kemudian diinterpretasikan dengan merujuk pada teori Dualisme Antagonistik Jakob Sumardjo. Berdasarkan interpretasi tersebut ditemukan sebuah fenomena yang bersifat paradoks sebagai gambaran pola Tritangtu masyarakat Sunda. Inilah pokok bahasan  yang akan diuraikan dalam tulisan ini.Kata Kunci: ornamen, lagu Dangdanggula Degung, Tembang Sunda Cianjuran

This article is devoted to Guillaume Apollinaire original poetic experience’s who tried to found a synthetic art combining heterogeneous semiotic systems such as painting and poetry. We propose, then, to study the various complementary relationship, polysemy or counterpoint established between the letters, poetic text and pictorial images.

Myocardial ischemia is the consequence of an unbalance between coronary flow that can be achieved and myocardial metabolic needs. Pathological state of both epicardial and intramyocardial vessels may be responsible for inducing ischemia. However, revascularization decision should be based on the severity of each epicardial lesion that is evaluated. There are different diagnostic tools that may help for the evaluation of each compartment which is based on the measurement of coronary hemodynamics. Pressure-derived indices are recommended by current guidelines for evaluation of epicardial stenosis significance. We assess the complex interaction between hemodynamic parameters in order to understand how different parameters are influenced in the settings of microvascular dysfunction.

The complex interaction between glioblastoma and its microenvironment has been recognized for decades. Among various immune profiles, the major population is tumor-associated macrophage, with microglia as its localized homolog. The present definition of such myeloid cells is based on a series of cell markers. These good sentinel cells experience significant changes, facilitating glioblastoma development and protecting it from therapeutic treatments. Huge, complicated mechanisms are involved during the overall processes. A lot of effort has been dedicated to crack the mysterious codes in macrophage/microglia recruiting, activating, reprogramming, and functioning. We have made our path. With more and more key factors identified, a lot of new therapeutic methods could be explored to break the ominous loop, to enhance tumor sensitivity to treatments, and to improve the prognosis of glioblastoma patients. However, it might be a synergistic system rather than a series of clear, stepwise events. There are still significant challenges before the light of truth can shine onto the field. Here, we summarize recent advances in this field, reviewing the path we have been on and where we are now.

Anomaly detection in complex networks is an important and challenging task in many application domains. Examples include analysis and sensemaking in human interactions, e.g., in (social) interaction networks, as well as the analysis of the behavior of complex technical and cyber-physical systems such as suspicious transactions/behavior in financial or routing networks; here, behavior and/or interactions typically also occur on different levels and layers. In this paper, we focus on detecting anomalies in such complex networks. In particular, we focus on multi-layer complex networks, where we consider the problem of finding sets of anomalous nodes for group anomaly detection. Our presented method is based on centrality-based many-objective optimization on multi-layer networks. Starting from the Pareto Front obtained via many-objective optimization, we rank anomaly candidates using the centrality information on all layers. This ranking is formalized via a scoring function, which estimates relative deviations of the node centralities, considering the density of the network and its respective layers. In a human-centered approach, anomalous sets of nodes can then be identified. A key feature of this approach is its interpretability and explainability, since we can directly assess anomalous nodes in the context of the network topology. We evaluate the proposed method using different datasets, including both synthetic as well as real-world network data. Our results demonstrate the efficacy of the presented approach.

Networkswith Remote DirectMemoryAccess (RDMA) support are becoming increasingly common. RDMA, however, offers a limited programming interface to remote memory that consists of read, write and atomic operations. With RDMA alone, completing the most basic operations on remote data structures often requires multiple round-trips over the network. Data-intensive systems strongly desire higher-level communication abstractions that supportmore complex interaction patterns. A natural candidate to consider is MPI, the de facto standard for developing high-performance applications in the HPC community. This paper critically evaluates the communication primitives of MPI and shows that using MPI in the context of a data processing system comes with its own set of insurmountable challenges. Based on this analysis, we propose a new communication abstraction named RDMO, or Remote DirectMemory Operation, that dispatches a short sequence of reads, writes and atomic operations to remote memory and executes them in a single round-trip.

Background:The Twin Cities Walking Study measured the associations of built environment versus socioeconomic and psychosocial variables with total physical activity and walking for 716 adults.Methods:This article reports on the test–retest reliability of the survey portion of the study. To test the reliability of the study measures, 158 respondents completed measures twice within 1 to 4 weeks. Agreement between participants’ responses was measured using Pearson r and Spearman rho, and kappa statistics.Results:Demographic questions are highly reliable (R > .8). Questions about environmental and social features are typically less reliable (rho range = 0.42– 0.91). Reliability of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (last 7 days version) was low (rho = 0.15 for total activity).Conclusions:Much of the survey has acceptable-to-good reliability. The low test–retest reliability points to potential limitations of using a single administration of the IPAQ to characterize habitual physical activity. Implications for sound inference are accordingly complicated.
