Thus, in order to obtain good results in fish production, the importance of the formulation of the diet, which is related to the quality of the ingredients that make up the feed, should be considered. However, due to the costs of raw materials, the formulation of fish diets presents itself as a challenge. Thus, the present work has the objective of presenting the opportunities and the challenges for the fish industry in Brazil. This presentation is made from two complementary chapters in which, each one, addresses a specific objective. The objective of the first chapter is to present an overview of fish feed production in Brazil and to analyze the opportunities for the fish feed production sector. The objective of the second chapter is to identify the challenges in fish nutrition for the food production sector in Brazil. The study was carried out based on bibliographic reviews, application of questionnaires and statistical analysis in which it was found that the fish feed sector has shown a dynamism in the last ten years, intensifying its demand. However, it is observed that the production of fish feed in Brazil still represents a small share of world production. There were also difficulties in the process of choosing ingredients related to their chemical composition and coefficient of digestibility, species-specific nutrition, vertical integration of the sector, as well as p...

It is a bibliographic theoretical research of the type state of the art that targets develop a Panorama Research whose theme is the use of mathematical modeling in high school: in the period 2010 to 2014. The objective of Panorama is to systematize the two main elements of a modeling: the phenomenon to be modeled and the mathematical concept modeler. The data were selected from the search of dissertations and articles in the thesis database of CAPES, the Digital Library of PUC-SP and on the Internet (using the Google search engine). The study included the analysis of twenty-one dissertations and seven articles. It was observed that the 28 most studies analyzed, 18 of them used as the modulator function concept, still showing complex numbers, arithmetic progressions, geometric progressions three rule and proportionality constant spatial geometry and redemption system. And they were presented as a phenomenon to be modeled for example semidesintegração cesium and iodine; the study of the automobile supply due to the movement, optimizing the use of alcohol or petrol in a car race; study the advantages and disadvantages in the use of nuclear power plant to the environment; the apparent movement of the sun and the length of shadows among others / Nessa dissertação é apresentada uma pesquisa realizada no âmbito do Mestrado Acadêmico do Programa de Estudos Pós-Graduados em Educação Matemática da PUC-SP. É uma pesquisa teórica bibliográfica do tipo estado da arte que tem por alvo elaborar um Panorama de Pesquisas que tem por tema o uso da modelagem matemática no Ensino Médio: no período 2010 a 2014.O objetivo do Panorama é sistematizar os dois elementos principais de uma modelagem: o fenômeno a ser modelado e o conceito matemático modelador. Os dados foram selecionados a partir da busca de dissertações e artigos no Banco de Teses da CAPES, na Biblioteca Digital da PUC-SP e na Internet (utilizando o buscador Google). O estudo abrangeu à análise de vinte e uma dissertações e sete artigos. Observou-se que dos 28 trabalhos analisados a maioria, 18 deles utilizaram função como conceito modelador, aparecendo ainda números complexos, progressões aritméticas, progressões geométricas, regra de três e proporcionalidade, geometria espacial e sistema de amortização constante. E foram apresentados como fenômeno a ser modelado, por exemplo, a semidesintegração do césio e iodo; o estudo do abastecimento do automóvel em função do movimento, a otimização do uso do álcool ou gasolina numa corrida de automóvel, o estudo das vantagens e desvantagens na utilização da usina nuclear para o meio ambiente; o movimento aparente do Sol e o comprimento das sombras entre outros

At the first Panorama in 1963, Anthony "Tony" Williams presented an arrangement of Slinger "Mighty Sparrow" Francisco's "Dan Is The Man (In The Van)" that would set the standard for Panoramas to come. As the competition continued arrangers like Bobby Mohammed, Earl Rodney, Jit Samaroo, and many others continued to present new ideas and techniques that became part of what is known as the "Panorama formula." In its current configuration the Panorama formula can be seen as an amalgamation of techniques introduced by past arrangers, but some argue that the formula has become too predictable and that arrangers who present works continuing to push the boundaries of the competition are often not rewarded, and perhaps punished for their efforts. This document will explore, through the history of the competition and the development of past arrangers, how the formulaic procedures of Panorama have developed. In addition, the recent works of arrangers Ray Holman, Liam Teague, and Andy Narell will be examined to see how they have challenged the expectations of the Panorama judges and the steelband community.

Dans cette thèse, nous nous intéressons à la navigation et à l'orientation d'un robot à l'aide de mesures d'angles, sans information de distance ni reconstitution de l'environnement.<br /><br />Des modèles issus d'expériences sur des abeilles ont montré qu'une approche minimaliste suffit pour une tâche de retour au nid à orientation connue. Nous analysons les conséquences d'une erreur d'orientation et les modes de fonctionnement dégradés qui restent possibles mais insatisfaisants.<br /><br />Nous élaborons une méthode originale et minimale de réorientation, appelée « compas visuel ». L'observation de trois panoramas d'orientation connue et une approximation au premier ordre suffisent pour mémoriser de quoi s'orienter. Nous comparons le compas visuel avec une seconde méthode plus simple et approximative. Nous montrons formellement et expérimentalement que leur précision est suffisante pour naviguer et que leur champ d'action peut être arbitrairement étendu par construction d'une carte cognitive.

Esta tesis trata sobre la importancia de la luz en el conjunto de la civilización, especialmente en el campo de las bellas artes. Estudia la luz en la antigüedad descubriendo las ideas y los mitos; el simbolismo de la luz y los mitos de la sombra. Sigue la evolución de las artes y de los espectáculos de la luz hasta su desarrollo en el cine.En este viaje, he comprobado que el concepto de luz está presente en todas las civilizaciones y culturas como uno de los símbolos más importantes. Desde los primeros indicios en la antigüedad hasta los espectáculos contemporáneos el dominio de la luz y la sombra ha catalizado mucho saber y magia. El simbolismo y el dominio, tanto de la luz natural como de la luz artificial, ha sido una cuestión central de las artes.La tesis estudia la luz en las bellas artes, arquitectura, pintura y escultura. En la arquitectura, desde el fuego, primer hogar, hasta el muro de cristal haciendo mención especial en el simbolismo de la luz en la arquitectura religiosa. La luz o su ausencia ha sido utilizada en los rituales litúrgicos de la mayoría de las religiones. La luz en la pintura donde su representación ha sido la preocupación constante de los artistas para conseguir crear sensación de realidad. Repasa pintores como Giotto y Masaccio, los flamencos Jan Van Eyck y Jan Vermeer, los holandeses Frans Hals y Rembrandt, De la Tour; Caravaggio y otros más cercanos como Velázquez y Goya que han sido motivo de inspiración para los directores de fotografía. La mayoría de los directores de fotografía que he entrevistado me han comentado que ellos "pintan con la luz", se sienten pintores y han tomado como referente a algunos artistas pintores.La tesis examina los espectáculos de la luz y de la sombra a lo largo de la historia: el teatro de sombras, la cámara oscura, la linterna mágica, el panorama, el diorama, el cinematógrafo. Sigue la pista de la luz en el teatro indagando en las aportaciones de Adolphe Appia y Marià Fortuny. la relación entre música y luz en los trabajos de L. B. Castell y la magia que aporta Carles Buigas en sus fuentes y proyectos cuando combina agua y luz.Explica la evolución del espejo y la fabricación del vidrio con sus diferentes aplicaciones, en un recorrido desde el faro de Alejandría o el espejo de Arquímedes hasta las modernas tecnologías como el horno solar de Font Romeo.En el cine, profundiza en la historia de la iluminación descubriendo la utilización de la Black Maria para la grabación de sonido. Se estudian los cambios más importantes que se dieron con la llegada de la electricidad, que ha permitido el control de la luz y el sonido. El cine sonoro supone una gran evolución para los iluminadores, como luego también lo sería la película de color o la introducción de la lente fresnel. La historia de la iluminación en el cine esta contada en función de los avances tecnológicos que han facilitado el trabajo a los iluminadores en su lucha para pintar con la luz.Vemos como en muchas ocasiones los avances técnicos y tecnológicos no parten directamente de la ingeniería, sino que son fruto de las intuiciones, impulsos o imaginación de los iluminadores, creadores y artistas en busca de recursos expresivos y creativos.Todo este camino sirve para entender "El Sentido de la Luz" en todo su recorrido hasta la iluminación en el cine y comprobar, entre otras cosas, cómo los iluminadores, y directores de fotografía, pintan con la luz inspirándose en sus antepasados los pintores. / This thesis deals with notions and ideas of light throughout history, especially in the plastic arts. It begins with a study of ideas and myths about light in Antiquity, especially the symbolism of light and myths about shadows, and then proceeds to see the role of art in both the plastic and the performing arts culminating in the development of film and cinema.Ideas about light exist in all civilizations and cultures and are expressed in important symbols. Human control of both natural and artificial light are a key part of any artistic expression.This thesis studies the meaning of light in bellas artes. First, we analyze the symbolism of light in religious architecture, and then proceed to prove that painters have always been the source of inspiration of cinema's directors of photography, who tend to see themselves as painters for they "paint" light.The thesis surveys the spectacles of light and shadows throughout history, such as the theater of shadows, the camera obscura (dark chamber), the magic lantern, the panorama, the diorama and cinema. Two particular case studies of artistic use of light are the evolution of light technique in theater by Appia and Fortuny, and the interplay of light and water by the Catalan engineer Buigas.Concerning cinema, we make a historical analysis of the most relevant changes brought up by electricity, which allowed to control both sound and light. Sonoro cinema allowed major innovations for light experts, who also benefited by inventions such as the color film or the Fresnel lens. We survey the most important technological advances that have contributed to new ways to paint light.Our historical survey thus illuminates the long and cumbersome process of innovation to express and control the "Sense of light".

Cette recherche propose des outils et des stratégies d'enseignements en arts visuels et médiatiques pour l'élaboration de panoramas virtuels en milieu scolaire. C'est dans le contexte du projet « Les sentiers aléatoires » que j'ai expérimenté, avec des élèves de niveau secondaire, différents types de panoramas virtuels. Les élèves devaient effectuer un parcours réflexif dans la création d'un panorama virtuel selon différentes thématiques, soit la notion du bien et du mal, la ville du futur et l'école de l'avenir. Divers médiums, par exemple, le fusain, le pastel, l'encre et le collage ont aussi été explorés afin de permettre le jumelage des arts plastiques et des arts médiatiques. Une combinaison de deux méthodologies balise mon parcours, soit une recherche-action, qui m'a permis d'expérimenter l'enseignement des nouvelles technologies en classe d'arts plastiques et une recherche-création, l'élaboration d'un site Web comprenant deux parties: « Outils didactiques » et « Mes sentiers aléatoires ». J'ai réalisé la totalité du site Web qui témoigne de ma recherche-création dans le milieu de l'éducation. Je souhaitais un parcours aléatoire dans ma recherche artistique et pédagogique, ce que la notion de rhizome m'a apportée et par le fait même, de vivre cette recherche comme une démarche de création. Le développement de ce projet Les sentiers aléatoires m'a amené à réfléchir sur mon statut d'artiste, mon processus de création et ainsi, de mieux comprendre la création pédagogique afin de concilier l'artiste et l'enseignante. J'ai expérimenté diverses stratégies d'enseignement pour explorer une pédagogie rhizomatique. J'aborde également les références théoriques liées à mon projet: la dynamique de création à partir des recherches de Gosselin, Potvin, Gingras et Murphy, (1998), par après je résume les principales approches en enseignement des nouvelles technologies et finalement je présente les penseurs et auteurs qui ont grandement influencé et alimenté ma recherche. Le philosophe Gilles Deleuze et plus particulièrement la notion de rhizome telle qu'il l'a développée en collaboration avec Félix Guattari fut pour moi une découverte majeure dans mon parcours. Ce projet se prête particulièrement aux exigences de l'école québécoise et au nouveau programme « Arts plastiques et multimédia ». Les besoins de telles ressources pédagogiques trouvent leur pertinence dans le milieu de l'éducation. Ces outils didactiques se retrouvent sur mon site Web: http://www.sylvietisserand.ca/maitrise/. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Arts plastiques et multimédia, Panoramas virtuels, QTVR, Pédagogie rhizomatique, Deleuze, Enseignant/artiste, Concilier, Création pédagogique.

Modern handheld devices such as smart phones and tablets have become popular for capturing and viewing panoramic images, but navigation in these devices is a challenging task due to small screen size. In this thesis work, investigation is done for similarities and differences between two user interaction techniques of one-dimensional cubical panorama images. This work is carried out on a fourth generation Apple iPod Touch. The first user interaction technique swipe (drag-based panning) is developed using touch-gestures, while the second technique look-around (device-orientation panning) is developed using motion-sensors such as gyroscope and accelerometer for device-orientation. Both these techniques were implemented for touch-screen devices for an angle of 360 degrees.     In the swipe technique, the navigation is done by using finger movements on the screen, while in the look-around based panning technique the navigation is done by moving the device direction physically in space through an angle of 360 degrees. The experiments were conducted on 20 participants for the two panning techniques. The results have shown that the look-around based panning technique offers a better user interaction compared to swipe based panning technique. Look-around based panning technique is natural and more free to move physically in space. Swipe based panning technique is easy to use in some situations and it does not require any physical space to move around the system.

The ultimate goal of the development of aerial photogrammery is to acquire rapidly and accurately the ground measurements. However, traditional photogrammetric technologies, particularly in the continuous digital images stitching technique, is still very limited. In the past, the ground control points were used as the references for the image registration, however, it is very time and resource consuming, as well as human visual capability constraint. Accuracy and efficiency are two key factors which need to be enhanced to meet the practical requirement for aerial imageries stitching. The SIFT (Sale Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm was used in the computer vision to perform feature extraction in good condition. The extracted SIFT features are invariant to image scale, rotation, noise and change in illumination, and it is a robust and abundant feature extraction algorithm. SIFT algorithm extracts feature points from multi-scale space. For a large scale aerial image containing huge amount of image contents, it will spend a lot of time to extract features from imagery. Therefore, this study proposes a new method, called Inter-Grid Down-Sampling (IGDS) method, to reduce the image size and relative amount of image information to improve the computing efficiency. The correspondent extracted features are matched in the adjacent images with additional RANSAC outlier removal procedure to select correct and characteristic feature points. Finally the Hugin-Panorama Photo Stitching software is used to stitch all the continuous photogrammetric images for producing a panorama imagery of all flight lines. The experiment results indicate that sub-pixel accuracy for extracted feature points can be obtained when the down-sampling factor 3 was selected for the IGDS method, and it only needs half of the computing time. Compared to the Nearest-Neighbor Interpolation and Cubic Interpolation methods to reduce the image size, the IGDS method can increase more feature extraction efficiency without scarifying the location accuracy. When threshold value for SIFT was set between 0.4 to 0.6, we can achieve the largest correct matching rate. In addition, the RANSAC outlier removal procedure can effectively select the best matching feature points both in numbers and locations. For image stitching, the Hugin-panorama photo stitching software can effectively be used to match feature points and do geometric correction and color adjustment to obtain a consistent panorama imagery. Finally, the proposed method in this study can derive a low-variant in resolution and measurements significance for a stitching image from continuous aerial images.
