This book introduces the reader to a recent theory in Computer Vision yielding elementary techniques to analyse digital images. These techniques are inspired from and are a mathematical formalization of the Gestalt theory. Gestalt theory, which had never been formalized is a rigorous realm of vision psychology developped between 1923 and 1975. From the mathematical viewpoint the closest field to it is stochastic geometry, involving basic probability and statistics, in the context of image analysis. The book is intended for a multidisciplinary audience of researchers and engineers. It is self contained in three aspects: mathematics, vision and algorithms, and requires only a background of elementary calculus and probability. A large number of illustrations, exercises and examples are included. The authors maintain a public software, MegaWave, containing implementations of most of the image analysis techniques developed in the book.

La simple mention du nom des Allobroges suffit à évoquer le puissant peuple gaulois qui occupait l’actuel Dauphiné et avait pour capitale Vienne en Isère. Mais s’ils entrent très tôt dans l’Histoire grâce aux auteurs grecs et latins, leur culture matérielle et leur mode de vie nous restent très mal connus. Le présent ouvrage prend donc un relief tout particulier puisqu’il constitue l’une des rares publications récentes consacrées à un site gaulois dans cette région. Le camp de Larina est surtout connu aujourd’hui pour son habitat de l’Antiquité tardive et du Haut Moyen-Âge, bien que la présence humaine depuis l’âge du Bronze y ait été révélée dès le siècle dernier. Pour la période de l’âge du Fer, autour de laquelle est centré ce volume, la nature de l’occupation du site restait énigmatique : habitat de hauteur fortifié ? sanctuaire ? L’analyse exhaustive des mobiliers découverts dans une faille de la falaise qui limite le site, tente d’apporter des éléments de réponse. La comparaison de cet ensemble exceptionnel qui rassemble à la fois des objets de parure, des outils agricoles, artisanaux et domestiques, des armes, des monnaies... avec des ensembles similaires provenant d’autres sites conduit l’auteur à suggérer que nous pourrions être en présence d’un de ces vastes dépôts d’objets -sacrifiés ou non - que l’on trouve disséminés dans l’ensemble de l’aire celtique. Les spécificités du gisement l’amènent à envisager une interprétation nouvelle et inattendue du Camp de Larina à l’âge du Fer. Enfin, l’inventaire détaillé des objets et leur situation dans le contexte de la Protohistoire régionale, permettent de dégager la place culturelle et économique des Allobroges à la veille de la conquête césarienne : contacts avec Marseille, affinités avec le Plateau Suisse, particularismes locaux. Die bloBe Erwahnung des Namens der Allobrogen geniigt, um das mächtige gallische Volk heraufzubeschwören, das das heutige Dauphiné bewohnte, und dessen Hauptstadt Vienne an der…

Phytoremediation, the use of plants to remediate environmental media, is being pursued as a new approach for the cleanup of contaminated soils and waters, including groundwater. Plant-assisted bioremediation, sometimes referred to as a type of phytoremediation, involves the interaction of plant roots and the microorganisms associated with these root systems to re- diate soils containing elevated concentrations of organic compounds. These techniques could provide cost-effective methods of remediating soils and groundwater contaminated with metals, radionuclides, and various types of organics, with fewer secondary wastes and less environmental impact than would be generated using traditional remediation methods. All plants extract necessary nutrients, including metals, from their soil and water environments. Some plants, called hyperaccumulators, have the ability to store large amounts of metals, even some metals that do not appear to be required for plant functioning. In addition, plants can take up various organic chemicals from environmental media and degrade or otherwise process them for use in their physiological processes. Phytoremediation technologies are in the early stages of development, with laboratory research and limited field trials being conducted to determine processes and refine methods. Additional research, including genetic engineering, is being conducted to improve the natural capabilities of plants to perform remediation functions and to investigate other plants with potential phytoremediation applications. Large areas in Western and Eastern countries are polluted with heavy metals and radionuclides in natural, rural, urban or industrial areas.
