El mismo fue incorporado por los gauchos y rechazado por la oligarquía. Actualmente luego de ser convertido en deporte por Rosas, prohibido y recuperado por Perón como deporte nacional esa misma oligarquía se lo apropió y practica como deporte de competición.

  • From People to Entities
    From People to Entities: Typed Search in the Enterprise and the Web Der Fakultat¨ fur¨ Elektrotechnik und Informatik der Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universitat¨ Hannover zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Naturwissenschaften (Dr. rer. nat.) genehmigte Dissertation von MSc Gianluca Demartini geboren am 06.12.1981, in Gorizia, Italien. 2011 Referent: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Nejdl Ko-Referent: Prof. Dr. Heribert Vollmer Ko-Referent: Prof. Dr. Arjen P. de Vries Tag der Promotion: 06. April 2011 ABSTRACT The exponential growth of digital information available in Enterprises and on the Web creates the need for search tools that can respond to the most sophisticated informational needs. Retrieving relevant documents is not enough anymore and finding entities rather than just textual resources provides great support to the final user both on the Web and in Enterprises. Many user tasks would be simplified if Search Engines would support typed search, and return entities instead of just Web pages. For example, an executive who tries to solve a problem needs to find people in the company who are knowledgeable about a certain topic. Aggregation of information spread over different documents is a key aspect in this process. Finding experts is a problem mostly considered in the Enterprise setting where teams for new projects need to be built and problems need to be solved by the right persons. In the first part of the thesis, we propose a model for expert finding based on the well consolidated vector space model for Information Retrieval and investigate its effectiveness. We can define Entity Retrieval by generalizing the expert finding problem to any entity.

SUMMARY This study was aimed to determine the weight supported on the back of the Chilean horse during the Chilean rodeo and to determine if this weight represents an overload for the animal, according to the Beltrán formula (1954). One hundred and forty registered Chilean horses, 74 geldings, 42 mares and 24 stallions (ages from 5 to 22 years) participants in rodeos at the O’Higgins Region were sampled. The height to the withers and girth in each individual was obtained in order to establish the back load maximum capacity. Riders and saddles were weighed to calculate the actual load supported by each horse and the actual percentage used of the maximun load was estimated. The results obtained indicate that Chilean rodeo horses present average height to the withers and average girth within the breed’s standard. Among the horses assessed 32.15% had a height to the withers below the lower limit of the established breed standard, and 6.43% showed girth size below the standard.
