Assessing motility through abdominal sound monitoring
(IEEE, 1997)This paper presents the results of an investigation into a computerised system for the assessment of gastrointestinal motility through the recording and analysis of bowel sounds. The system described is aimed primarily at ... -
Assigning Types to Processes
(IEEE Computer Society Press., 2000)In wide area distributed systems it is now common for higher-order code to be transferred from one domain to another; the receiving host may initialise parameters and then execute the code in its local environment. We ... -
Automated processing of shoeprint images based on the Fourier transform for use in forensic science
(IEEE, 2005)The development of a system for automatically sorting a database of shoeprint images based on the outsole pattern in response to a reference shoeprint image is presented. The database images are sorted so that those from ... -
Brain-computer interfaces, virtual reality, and videogames
(IEEE, 2008)Major challenges must be tackled for brain-computer interfaces to mature into an established communications medium for VR applications, which will range from basic neuroscience studies to developing optimal peripherals and ... -
Calculated Threshold Currents of Nitride- and. Phosphide-Based Quantum-Well Lasers
(1996)No abstract available. -
Carrier-density dependence of the photoluminescence lifetimes in ZnCdSe/ZnSSe quantum wells at room temperature
(American Institute of Physics, 1999)Photoluminescence lifetimes have been measured at room temperature as a function of carrier density in ZnCdSe/ZnSSe quantum wells. We show that, at low carrier density (5 ? 109?5 ? 1010 cm ? 2), nonradiative recombination ... -
Classification of the electrocardiogram using selected wavelet coefficients and linear discriminants
(IEEE, 2000)Twenty-live wavelet coefficients were selected as inputs and cross-validation used to estimate the classifier performance. An overall accuracy of 72.3% was achieved using a database of 500 ECG records independently classified ... -
Color video segmentation using level sets
(IEEE, 2000)A novel segmentation algorithm for color video sequences using the level set technique is proposed. This algorithm is applied to the problem of automatic face region segmentation in video sequences. Given a target color ... -
Concurrent task performance enhances low-level visuomotor learning.
(Psychonomic Society, 2007)Visuomotor association learning involves learning to make a motor response to an arbitrary visual stimulus. This learning is essential for visual search and discrimination performance and is reliant upon a well-defined neural ... -
Development of leukemia in donor cells after allogeneic stem cell transplantation--a survey of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT).
(Pensiero Scientifico / Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2005)Leukemia in donor cells (donor cell leukemia; DCL) has been reported as a rare but severe complication of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). However, the incidence, potential pathogenetic factors, therapeutic ... -
A digital signal processing index of hand tremor
(1992)An index of hand tremor is formulated from the data obtained from the analysis of the cylindrical grip strength. The tremor signal is extracted digitally from the data and the mean square power calculated. The ... -
Effective use of imatinib-mesylate in the treatment of relapsed chronic myeloid leukemia after allogeneic transplantation
(Ferrata Storti Foundation, 2008) -
Electrocardiogram based neonatal seizure detection
(IEEE, 2007)A method for the detection of seizures in the newborn using the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is presented. Using a database of eight recordings, a method was developed for automatically annotating each 1-min epoch as ... -
Evolution of the Cerebellar Cortex: Selective expansion of prefrontal-projecting lobules
(2009)It has been suggested that interconnected brain areas evolve in tandem because evolutionary pressures act on complete functional systems rather than individual brain areas. The cerebellar cortex has reciprocal connections ... -
Exaction of the optic disk boundary in digital fundus images
(IEEE, 1999)The methods of active contours (?snakes?) and level sets were applied to images of the retina in order to locate the outer boundary of the optic disk. A gradient-vector-flow based active contour was used as it performed ... -
Extracting Separate Responses to Simultaneously Presented Continuous Auditory Stimuli: An Auditory Attention Study
(2009)Auditory Evoked Potentials (AEPs) have been used extensively in the study of auditory attention. Some weaknesses of standard AEP paradigms include (i) stimulation is discrete in nature and thus not very ecological and ... -
A fully abstract denotational model for higher-order processes
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 1993)A higher-order process calculus is defined in which one can describe processes which transmit as messages other processes; it may be viewed as a generalization of the lazy ?-calculus. The authors present a denotational ... -
'The future isn't what it used to be': Technology in counselling and psychotherapy
(2008)Change is prefigured in the articulation by Dr Rick Satavas: `the future isn?t what it used to be?. Its sentiment rings true; recently psychotherapy practitioners and researchers have begun investigating the potential of ... -
Hybrid multiplier/CORDIC unit for online handwriting recognition
(IEEE, 1999)Traditionally online handwriting recognition (OHR) implementations use general-purpose processor architectures. The pre-processing step of OHR comprises regular array-based tasks such as normalisation, feature extraction ... -
Inside the crawling T cell: leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 cross-linking is associated with microtubule-directed translocation of protein kinase C isoenzymes beta(I) and delta
(1998)T cells activated via integrin receptors can polarize and start crawling locomotion with repeated cycles of cytoskeletal reassembly processes, many of which depend on phosphorylation. We demonstrate that protein kinase C ...
