TL;DR: The approach of multimedia information representation based on the process of economic intelligence with the authors' stimulated users' needs from multimedia information systems is demonstrated.
Abstract: Multimedia information is rich and complex considering its heterogeneous nature: video, audio, text. A representation of this type of information based on its contents and its structure can allows for a high level of precision of description. The relevance of response will be still better if the representation takes into considerations the information needs of users, in particular the uses of these responses. In this study, firstly we present an outline of work relating to indexing and multimedia information representation. Secondly, we will demonstrate our approach of multimedia information representation based on the process of economic intelligence with our stimulated users' needs from multimedia information systems.

TL;DR: In this article, Bertacchini et al. introduce the notion of secteur d'activite, a notion of roles and competences defined by the acteurs of a systeme d'information.
Abstract: Dans cette communication, nous nous interessons a la demarche d'intelligence economique appliquee au territoire, que l'on appelle desormais intelligence territoriale (IT). Yann Bertacchini la definit comme suit : « [...] l'intelligence territoriale peut etre assimilee a la territorialite qui resulte du phenomene d'appropriation des ressources d'un territoire puis aux transferts des competences entre des categories d'acteurs locaux de culture differente [...] » [Bertacchini, 2004]. Dans ce contexte, nous proposons de faire un etat des lieux des differents dispositifs d'intelligence territoriale mis en place en region. Nous avons commence notre etude par une enquete sur le terrain en Lorraine, au sein du dispositif DECiLOR. Cette etude aura pour objectif a court terme, de confronter nos resultats avec ceux d'autres regions ayant mis en place un dispositif d'IT, telles que l'Alsace (Cogito), le Nord (Intellinor), le Nord Pas de Calais (CDIES), la Normandie (portail d'IE regional), l'Ile de France (Observatoire de veille territoriale), etc...Nous mettrons ainsi en evidence les atouts, les differences et complementarites de chacun de ces dispositifs. Notre approche consistera a definir et a caracteriser les acteurs, les systemes d'information et l'interaction entre les deux. Les criteres porteront sur l'etude des roles et des competences des acteurs integres aux dispositifs, ainsi que sur les plates-formes collaboratives permettant de mutualiser les competences et savoir-faire en region. Ces resultats feront l'objet d'une prochaine communication. Dans cet article, nous nous interessons particulierement aux systemes d'information developpes pour gerer, federer et mutualiser les savoir-faire, les competences et les connaissances d'un territoire que nous limitons, dans le cadre de notre etude, a la notion de secteur d'activite (c'est sur ce point que nous definirons les centres de veille sectorielle mis en place en Lorraine). Nous cherchons ainsi a definir l'apport et le mode de gestion des outils mis en place au sein d'un meme systeme d'information, necessaire a l'animation d'un secteur d'activite (nous parlerons dans notre etude d'animation de « filiere »). Ces systemes d'information se caracterisent par des plates-formes integrant divers outils collaboratifs (intranet, systeme de veille, portail...), dont nous definissons les objectifs et les modes operatoires pour une filiere donnee. Nous evoquons egalement les acteurs (decideur, veilleur, infomediaire) qui sont amenes a utiliser, a gerer et a animer ces systemes d'informations. D'une maniere precise, nous proposons une etude des roles et competences de chacun pour en deduire leur place au sein du dispositif d'IT. Afin de mettre en evidence l'interaction entre ces acteurs et les systemes d'information mis en place, nous soulignons leur complementarite, en montrant que l'un ne peut se substituer a l'autre. Nous explorons ainsi, les enjeux et objectifs qui conduisent un secteur d'activite a s'interesser et a s'investir dans une demarche d'intelligence territoriale, en partageant ses experiences et son savoirfaire au sein d'une meme communaute (nous prenons l'exemple du secteur de l'eau et de l'environnement en Lorraine). Cette communication s'inscrit dans la continuite de nos precedentes etudes se rapportant a la definition des roles et competences de l'infomediaire (nomme ainsi en Lorraine) au sein du processus d'intelligence economique [VSST 2004 / ATELIS 2005]. C'est en considerant les competences requises et appropriees de ce nouvel acteur (tenant une place capitale au sein du dispositif d'intelligence economique), que nous cherchons a demontrer son apport au sein du processus d'IT, en fonction des enjeux et besoins des decideurs du territoire.

Abstract: One-sided leniency policies and asymmetric punishment are regarded as potentially powerful anti-corruption tools, also in the light of their success in busting price-fixing cartels. It has been argued, however, that the introduction of these policies in China in 1997 has not helped fighting corruption. Following up on this view, the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party passed on 23 October 2014 a Decision concerning Several Major Issues in Comprehensively Advancing Governance According to Law which stressed the current government’s strong commitment to fight corruption introducing heavier penalties, including death penalty, but also severe restrictions of leniency offered to bribe-givers. Claims on the effects of the 1997 reform are not backed by data, to our knowledge, while evaluating the effects of a policy on crimes like corruption is difficult. These crimes are typically only observed if detected and convicted by the police, and an increase in observed convictions may as well be due to an increase in the total number of crimes rather than to a positive effect of the policy. We collect data on the investigations of bribery and public official corruption, available for most Chinese provinces for the period 1986-2010, and extend to corruption a method to identify deterrence effects from changes in detected cases, originally developed for cartels. The available evidence so far points to a substantial and stable reduction in the number of major corruption cases around the 1997 reform, a result per se ambiguous but clearly consistent with a positive deterrence effect of the 1997 reform. A case study analysis is under way to corroborate and help the interpretation of these preliminary findings.

TL;DR: The authors of this book, members of an expert group supported by the CNRS in France, bring all of their talents together to create a comprehensive book that does just this and more.
Abstract: The development of a research, teaching, or application of competitive (economic) intelligence requires a strategic and transverse visionin regards torelated issues. It is essential to integrate the role of culturewhen interpreting results, either from the training of a specialist or in respect to a country or region. The authors of this book, members of an expert group supported by the CNRS in France, bring all of their talents together to create a comprehensive book that does just this and more.

TL;DR: This paper takes a look at the general characteristics of business or economic intelligence system and proposes two models which are considered important in order to adapt this system to the user.
Abstract: This paper takes a look at the general characteristics of business or economic intelligence system. The role of the user within this type of system is emphasized. We propose two models which we consider important in order to adapt this system to the user. The first model is based on the definition of decisional problem and the second on the four cognitive phases of human learning. We also describe the application domain we are using to test these models in this type of system.
