Dans cette thèse, les réseaux coopératifs sont étudiés sous cette hypothèse que la source est incertain par rapport le canal en opération. Dans le premier chapitre, des stratégies coopératives sont développées pour les canaux à relais simultanés (SRC) lesquelles se composent d'un ensemble de deux canaux à relais parmi lesquels le canal en opération est choisi. Cela est équivalent au canal de diffusion à relais (BRC). Les bornes sur la région de capacité de BRC général sont dérivées. Les résultats de capacité sont obtenus pour les cas particuliers du canal à relais simultané semi-dégradé et dégradé Gaussien. Dans le deuxième chapitre, le canal à relais composite est considéré où le canal est tiré aléatoirement d'un ensemble de la distribution conditionnelle. Le débit est fixé en dépit du canal actuel et la probabilité d'erreur (EP) asymptotique est caractérisée. Une nouvelle stratégie de codage sélectif (SCS) est introduit permettant aux relais de choisir -selon leur mesurage du canal – la meilleur schéma de codage entre Décoder-et-Transmettre (DF) et Comprimer-et-Transmettre (CF). Les théorèmes de codage de réseau bruit généralisées sont démontrés pour le cas de réseau unicast général où les relais utilisent soit DF soit CF. Dans le troisième chapitre, le spectre asymptotique de EP est introduit en tant que nouvelle mesure de performance pour réseaux composites. Il est démontré que chaque code avec le débit hors de la borne cut-set, abouti à EP égal à un et le spectre asymptotique de EP coïncide avec la probabilité d'outage pour les réseaux satisfaisant la converse forte. / In this thesis, cooperative networks are studied under the assumption that the source is uncertain about the channel in operation. In the first chapter, cooperative strategies are developed for simultaneous relay channels (SRC) which consist of a set of two single relay channels out of which the channel in operation is chosen. This is equivalent to the broadcast relay channel (BRC). Bounds on the capacity region of the general BRC with two helper relays are derived. Capacity results are obtained for specific cases of semi-degraded and degraded Gaussian simultaneous relay channels. In the second chapter, the composite relay channel is considered where the channel is randomly drawn from a set of conditional distributions according to a given distribution. The transmission rate is fixed regardless of the current channel and the asymptotic error probability (EP) is characterized. A novel selective coding strategy (SCS) is introduced which enables relays to select –based on their channel measurement– the best coding scheme between Compress-and-Forward (CF) and Decode-and-Forward (DF). Generalized Noisy Network Coding theorems are shown for the case of unicast general networks where the relays use either DF or CF scheme. In the third chapter, the asymptotic behavior of EP is studied for composite multiterminal networks. The asymptotic spectrum of EP is introduced as a novel performance measure for composite networks. It is shown that every code with rate outside cut-set bound, yields EP equal to one and for the networks satisfying strong converse condition, the asymptotic spectrum of EP coincides with the outage probability.

A análise da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca é um método útil para avaliar o funcionamento anormal do sistema nervoso autônomo e para prever eventos cardíacos em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. As medidas da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca por meio de cardiofrequencímetro têm sido validadas em comparação com eletrocardiograma em indivíduos saudáveis, mas não em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca. Nós exploramos a reprodutibilidade dos índices da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca obtidos por meio de um cardiofrequencímetro (PolarS810i) e um eletrocardiograma portátil (Holter) nas fases de repouso e de recuperação em dois testes da caminhada de seis minutos consecutivos, com 60 minutos de intervalo entre os dois testes em 50 pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca (~59 anos, New York Heart Association classe funcional II, fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo ~35%). A reprodutibilidade das medidas para cada dispositivo foi analisada por meio do t-test pareado ou Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Adicionalmente, nós avaliamos a concordância entre os dois dispositivos na análise dos índices da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca em repouso, durante o teste da caminhada de seis minutos e durante a fase de recuperação por meio do Coeficiente de Correlação e Concordância (CCC) com 95% de intervalo de confiança e gráficos Bland-Altman. O teste-reteste para análise da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca foi reprodutível com o uso de ambos, o Holter e o PolarS810i, no repouso mas não na fase de recuperação. No segundo teste da caminhada de seis minutos, os pacientes apresentaram aumentos significativo do rMSSD e da distância percorrida. A confiabilidade das medidas do PolarS810i foram consideravelmente altas [0,86 < CCC < 0,99) com base nas medidas do Holter nas três fases: em repouso, durante o teste da caminhada de seis minutos e durante a recuperação. A menor concordância [CCC=0,86] entre os dois dispositivos foi observada no pNN50 durante o teste da caminhada de seis minutos e na fase de recuperação. Em conclusão, nosso estudo mostrou boa reprodutibilidade dos índices da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca em repouso em dois consecutivos testes da caminhada de seis minutos utilizando Holter e PolarS810i. Adicionalmente, o PolarS810i produziu índices confiáveis da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca a partir de registros de curta duração e com base nas gravações simultâneas com o Holter nas três fases: em repouso, durante o teste da caminhada de seis minutos e durante a recuperação em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca / Heart rate variability analysis is a useful method to assess abnormal functioning in the autonomic nervous system and to predict cardiac events in patients with heart failure. Heart rate variability measurements with heart rate monitors have been validated with an electrocardiograph in healthy subjects but not in patients with heart failure. We explored the reproducibility of heart rate variability indexes using a heart rate monitor (Polar S810i) and a portable electrocardiograph (Holter) at rest and at recovery of two consecutive six-min walk tests, 60 minutes apart in 50 heart failure patients (~59 years, New York Heart Association functional class II, left ventricular ejection fraction ~35%). The reproducibility for each device was analysed using a paired t-test or the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Additionally, we assessed the agreement between the two devices based on the heart rate variability indexes at rest, during the six-min walk test and during recovery using Concordance Correlation Coefficients (CCC), 95% confidence intervals and Bland-Altman plots. The test-retest for the heart rate variability analyses was reproducible using Holter and PolarS810i at rest but not during recovery. In the second six-min walk test, patients showed significant increases in rMSSD and walking distance. The reliability of PolarS810i measurements was remarkably high [0.86 < CCC < 0.99] based on Holter in the three phases: at rest, during six-min walk test and during recovery. The lowest agreement [CCC=0.86] between the two devices was observed in pNN50 during the six-min walk test and recovery. In conclusion, our study showed good reproducibility of heart rate variability indexes at rest in two consecutive six-min walk test using Holter and Polar S810i. Additionally, PolarS810i produced reliable short-term heart rate variability indexes based on Holter simultaneous recordings at rest, during the six-min walk test and during recovery in heart failure patients

香港基進政治組織人民力量放棄以激進方式表達訴求，改以「快樂抗爭」作為政治策略以吸引大量群眾參與，並形成可觀的政治力量施予政府政治壓力。人民力量雖然以基進組織自居，何以取「快樂抗爭」作為它的政治策略呢？在此論文會仔細討論「快樂抗爭」如何以喜慶節日之感，讓與者用以直接抗爭為手法，承擔昂貴的政治成本來表達訴求，代之以輕鬆快之手段鼓動更多公眾參與。同一時間，縱使情緒搧動可以直接鼓動民眾與政治運動，然而情緒也有不智的一面。為了讓參與者宣洩他們的不滿，減低運動失控的情況，人民力量採納具有浄化作用的「快樂抗爭」作為它的抗爭手段。以下文章同時採用質性及質量硏究，以明情緒在社會運動中扮演的角色。 / People Power, a radical group in Hong Kong, abandoned their disruptive approach, and adopted a new tactic of social movementjoyous resistancewhich attracted large numbers of participants. In this way, People Power became an influential political lever, exerting great pressure on the government. Why did this radical political party, People Power, abandon its stance of resistance through physical confrontation, and opt for a moderate approach, joyous resistance, to express their anger and voice their grievances at the government and at the group’s antagonists? The shift in tactics has certainly been a successful one, attracting the attention of the public and helped a marginalized radical political party, People Power, to win three seats in 2012 Legislative Council Election. Although traditional theories of social movements have largely neglected the importance of emotion, the case of People Power shows that festive emotion can be an intangible resource to reduce the cost of participation when compared with confrontational tactics. The cathartic function of joyous resistance also reduces the potential for violence when People Power uses emotional appeals to mobilize the masses. In this thesis the concept of joyous resistance is introduced and the salient role of emotion in social movements is discussed, using case studies on People Power, the League of Social Democrats, the Democratic Party and the Civic Human Rights Front. Both quantitative and qualitative analysis will be conducted for the following thesis. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Ng, Vitrierat. / Thesis (Ph.D.) Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2014. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 207-215). / Abstracts also in Chinese; appendixes includes Chinese. / Ng, Vitrierat.

本文主要是從音韻,句法,語義及言談分析四部門的介面關係來探討閩南副詞的各種變調現象.副詞的句法及語義修飾功能可能影響閩南語重疊副詞的變調行為.當重疊副詞的句法與語義功能呈現差異時.它則單獨形成一個音韻片語.副詞內在的語義特性與閩南語一般副詞的變調有密切的關連.副詞可以是副語修飾語或句子修飾語.述語修飾語在語義上修飾述語或述語內的成份,因此與述語共同形成一個音韻片語;句子修飾語在語義上修飾主詞,句子或說話者,其必須單獨形成一個音韻片語.最後,我們從言談分析的角度重新分析閩南語的副詞.訊息結構中的焦點,主題及評論等結構會促成副詞音韻片語的重組.當副詞構成整個主題或評論時,它必須單獨形成一個獨立片語 / This thesis explores the adverbial phrasings in Southern Min from the interface among phonology, syntax, semantics, and discourse. The syntactic andsemantic modification functions of the adverbs may affect the tonal phrasings of there duplicated adverbs in this language. When an adverb shows a syntax-semanticmismatch, it would form a separate phonological phrase. The intrinsic semanticproperties of the adverbs are crucial to tonal phrasings of the general adverbsSouthern Min. An adverb may serve as a predicate modifier, a sentence modifier, or both. A predicate modifier joins with the predicate to form aphonological phrase;a sentence modifier forms a separate phonological phrase.Finally, we reanalyzethe adverbs in question from the viewpoint of discourse information structure. An adverb which is a focus, topic, domains. Specifically,a topic or commentcoincides with the phonological phrase.
