A P300-Based Brain-Computer Interface for Improving Attention
(2019)A Brain-computer Interface (BCI) can be used as a neurofeedback training tool to improve cognitive performance. BCIs aim to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the conventional neurofeedback methods by focusing on ... -
P3b amplitude as a signature of cognitive decline in the older population: An EEG study enhanced by Functional Source Separation
(2019)With the greying population, it is increasingly necessary to establish robust and individualized markers of cognitive decline. This requires the combination of well-established neural mechanisms, and the development of ... -
A parametric feature extraction and classification strategy for brain-computer interfacing
(IEEE, 2005)Parametric modeling strategies are explored in conjunction with linear discriminant analysis for use in an electroencephalogram (EEG)-based brain-computer interface (BCI). A left/right self-paced typing exercise is analyzed ... -
Parametric models and spectral analysis for classification in brain-computer interfaces
(IEEE, 2002)Parametric modelling strategies and spectral analysis are explored in conjunction with linear discriminant analysis to facilitate an EEG based direct-brain interface for use by disabled people. A self-paced typing exercise ... -
A patient adapting heartbeat classifier using ECG morphology and heart-beat interval features
(IEEE, 2006)An adaptive system for the automatic processing of the electrocardiogram (ECG) for the classification of heartbeats into one of the five beat classes recommended by ANSI/AAMI EC57:1998 standard is presented. The heartbeat ... -
Peak frequency in the theta and alpha bands correlates with human working memory capacity
(2010)Theta oscillations in the local field potential of neural ensembles are considered key mediators of human working memory. Theoretical accounts arising from animal hippocampal recordings propose that the phase of theta ... -
Peer Review on "Improving reconciliation of work and long-term care"
(2018)This paper has been prepared for the Peer Review on “Improving reconciliation of work and long-term care”. It provides a comparative assessment of the policy example of the Host Country and the situation in Ireland. The ... -
Perioperative serum inflammatory response and the development of atrial fibrilation after coronary artery bypass surgery
(BMJ, 2005)Atrial fibrillation (AF) remains the most common cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with an increase in both morbidity and mortality. Some data in both the surgical and non-surgical settings suggest that inflammation has ... -
A personal communicator of the vocally handicapped
(IEEE, 1992)An affordable personal communicator which allows full control of the voice has been designed and developed. The aid employs coded digitised speech in an efficient manner, coupled with specif- hardware in an attempt to ... -
Personalised ADPCM play-back devices for the handicapped
(1991)Two personalised instantaneous speech playback devices were designed and developed Both centred upon the memory efficiency advantages of Adaptive Differential Pulse Coded Modulation (ADPCM). One system is handheld and ... -
Personality, Attentional Biases towards Emotional Faces and Symptoms of Mental Disorders in an Adolescent Sample.
(2015)Objective To investigate the role of personality factors and attentional biases towards emotional faces, in establishing concurrent and prospective risk for mental disorder diagnosis in adolescence. Method Data were ... -
Perspectives for multimodal neurochemical and imaging biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease.
(2013)The diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is presently going through a paradigm shift from disease categories to dimensions and toward the implementation of biomarkers to support identification of predementia and even ... -
Pesticide mixtures detected in crop and non-target wild plant pollen and nectar
(2023)Cultivation of mass flowering entomophilous crops benefits from the presence of managed and wild pollinators, who visit flowers to forage on pollen and nectar. However, management of these crops typically includes application ... -
Phenotypic and molecular insights into Spinal Muscular Atrophy due to mutations in BICD2
(2015)Spinal muscular atrophy is a disorder of lower motor neurons, most commonly caused by recessive mutations in SMN1 on chromosome 5q. Cases without SMN1 mutations are subclassified according to phenotype. Spinal muscular ... -
Photochemically active DNA-intercalating ruthenium and related complexes-insights by combining crystallography and transient spectroscopy
(2017)Recent research on the study of the interaction of ruthenium polypyridyl compounds and defined sequence nucleic acids is reviewed. Particular emphasis is paid to complexes [Ru(LL)2(Int)]2+ containing potentially intercalating ... -
Photochemistry of compounds of the main group elements
(1979)Photochemistry of Compounds of the Main Group Elements BY J. M. KELLY 1 Introduction Reports on the photochemistry of inorganic anions are discussed in the next section; those dealing with other compounds are considered ... -
Photophysical studies of CdTe quantum dots in the presence of a zinc cationic porphyrin
(2012)The photophysical properties of 2.3 nm thioglycolic acid (TGA) coated CdTe quantum dots (QDs) prepared by a reflux method have been studied in the presence of cationic meso-tetrakis(4-Nmethylpyridyl) zinc porphyrin ... -
Physical activity and cardiovascular risk factors in urban school children
(2013)Although the clinical signs of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are not evident until adulthood, many of the risk factors have their roots in early childhood. The aim of this study was to examine physical activity levels (PA) ...
