Version 1.7 (2026-09-23): the review manuscript as submitted to the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, a snapshot of paper/tit-cr-context at tag tit-cr-context-1.7 of github.com/ahb-sjsu/geometric-observation. Single-column review format, 33 pages; figures set in Type 1 fonts through the pgf backend; the AI-assistance acknowledgment names the systems, sections and level of assistance. Title and mathematics unchanged from 1.5. Files: the manuscript PDF, the executed reproduction notebook (reproduce.ipynb), and a zip of the manuscript directory with its LaTeX source, figures, figure scripts, independent numerical and symbolic verification scripts, MATLAB checks, and archived earlier versions.An encoder observes a jointly Gaussian pair (Y, V) and describes Y for a decoder that sees the description alone; a third party retains a noisy copy S = V + U of the context and never decodes. The paper evaluates Steinberg's common-reconstruction functional on this augmented source: it gives the minimal conditional content in closed form, the exact rate-content region with its two-noise-fraction Pareto frontier and a strict tradeoff exactly when the described variable and the context are partially correlated, non-determination by the reduced (Y, S) law, the vector-context frontier, the binary rate-content frontier through a tilt equation, and a direct Gaussian operational theorem.
La souillure et l'ordre classificatoire : Anthropologie du tri au quotidien dans la gestion des déchets biomédicaux du district sanitaire de Sikasso (Mali)

Fondé sur 24 entretiens et six observations menés en 2026 dans six structures du district sanitaire de Sikasso (Mali), cet article propose une lecture anthropologique du tri des déchets biomédicaux à partir de trois modèles théoriques : la souillure douglassienne, la liminalité turnérienne et le regard disciplinaire foucaldien. Le code couleur, bien que connu des acteurs, est fréquemment transgressé : ruptures de boîtes de sécurité, recapuchonnage, mélange des catégories de déchets. Distinguant déclarations, observations et interprétation théorique, l’article montre que ces écarts relèvent moins d’une négligence technique que d’un arbitrage entre un ordre symbolique partagé et une infrastructure matérielle déficiente.

Ce Projet de Fin d’Études, mené chez Thales SIX GTS France, vise l’industrialisation du processus de génération des composants logiciels du produit SSR. Face à un existant hétérogène et peu automatisé, limitant reproductibilité, traçabilité et maintenabilité, le projet propose une chaîne de génération logicielle industrialisée, intégrant les principes DevSecOps et les bonnes pratiques modernes d’ingénierie logicielle, tout en respectant les contraintes spécifiques de Thales. Après une analyse de l’existant et une étude des outils industriels (CMake, Jenkins, Artifactory), une architecture cible de pipeline a été conçue et implémentée sous forme de démonstrateur fonctionnel. Un Proof of Concept a validé la chaîne complète, démontrant des gains significatifs en reproductibilité, standardisation et traçabilité des builds, ouvrant la voie à une industrialisation opérationnelle.

PCAP2Flows v1.0
PCAP2Flows is an interactive tool for converting network packet captures (.pcap) into flow-based CSV datasets using multiple flow-generation engines within a reproducible Docker environment.
It is designed for researchers, students, and practitioners working with network traffic data who want to generate, compare, and process flow-based datasets without manually installing and configuring several independent tools.
Main features
PCAP2Flows supports three flow-generation engines:
Argus
NTLFlowLyzer
Zeek with zeek-flowmeter
It also provides post-processing functions for:
filtering flows by port
removing constant columns
adding labels derived from filenames
generating flow-file statistics
Intended use
PCAP2Flows is intended for:
network traffic analysis
cybersecurity research
intrusion-detection dataset generation
IoT traffic analysis
flow-based machine-learning datasets
reproducible network measurement
comparison of flow-generation tools
academic research and education
Reproducible Docker-based release
PCAP2Flows v1.0 is distributed as a complete Docker-based release.
The supplied Docker image contains the tested execution environment together with the required third-party tools and dependencies, including:
Argus and ra
NTLFlowLyzer
Zeek
zeek-flowmeter
Python and required Python packages
operating-system dependencies
Users therefore do not need to install these components separately.
The Docker image also preserves the tested third-party environment, helping protect the release against future changes to package repositories, dependency versions, and upstream software.
The PCAP2Flows-specific Python source code remains available separately under the source/ directory and can be modified without rebuilding the Docker image.
Version
PCAP2Flows version: 1.0
Docker image: pcap2flows:1.0
Platform support
The release is intended to run on:
Windows using Docker Desktop with WSL 2
macOS using Docker Desktop
Linux using Docker Engine and Docker Compose
Separate installation and usage guides are provided for each platform.
Release contents
The PCAP2Flows release includes:
PCAP2Flows-release/
├── config/
├── docker-compose.yml
├── input_pcaps/
├── output/
├── pcap2flows-1.0.tar
├── pcap2flows-1.0.tar.sha256
└── source/
The main directories are:
input_pcaps/ User-provided PCAP files
output/ Generated flow datasets and processing results
config/ Persistent runtime configuration
source/ Editable PCAP2Flows Python source code
The file:
pcap2flows-1.0.tar
contains the complete Docker image for the PCAP2Flows v1.0 execution environment.

This dataset accompanies the paper "Inferring Gender from Author Names with Local LLMs: A Multi-Model Evaluation" (Journal of Informetrics, 2026).
It contains 194,528 first name–country pairs derived from Wikidata, along with gender predictions (Man / Woman / Unknown) produced by 25 open-weight large language models run locally via Ollama, ranging from 270M to 70B parameters. The ground truth is based on the gender distribution of real people registered in Wikidata for each name and country of origin. The dataset includes: (1) the ground-truth reference file with name, country, and sex; (2) the Wikidata source file with gender probability and frequency statistics; (3) one prediction file per model (25 total); and (4) Python scripts to reproduce the evaluation metrics (precision, recall, F1-score) and all figures reported in the paper.

A utilização de plataformas digitais no Exame Clínico Objetivo Estruturado (OSCE) tem ampliado a necessidade de compreender seus impactos na experiência dos docentes avaliadores. Este estudo analisou a associação entre fatores estruturais da arquitetura digital do OSCE, incluindo clareza da estrutura avaliativa, padronização dos processos, qualidade da interface e acompanhamento pedagógico, com a percepção de justiça avaliativa e indicadores contextuais de autoeficácia docente na educação médica. Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, de delineamento correlacional, realizado com 60 docentes de uma instituição de ensino superior, dos quais 21 participaram de uma segunda etapa após um simulado padronizado do OSCE. Os dados foram coletados por meio de questionários e analisados utilizando estatística descritiva e correlação de Pearson. Os resultados evidenciaram associações positivas e significativas entre qualidade da interface, clareza dos critérios avaliativos, padronização dos processos, acompanhamento pedagógico e percepção de justiça avaliativa. As correlações mais elevadas foram observadas entre interface e clareza (r = 0,863), interface e equidade (r = 0,828) e acompanhamento e interface (r = 0,843) (p < 0,001). Conclui-se que ambientes digitais mais organizados, intuitivos e padronizados estão associados a percepções mais positivas de transparência, confiabilidade e segurança no processo avaliativo, destacando a relevância da arquitetura digital para a qualidade das avaliações na educação médica.
