Synchronous colocated collaborative sensemaking requires that analysts share their information and insights with each other. The challenge is to know when the right time what without disrupting present state of analysis. This crucial in ad-hoc sessions mobile devices because small screen space limits display. To address these tensions, we propose evaluate RAMPARTS - a spatially aware system for crime analysis aims support faster sharing, clue-finding, We compare an interactive tabletop...

Abstract Background The consensus on how to choose a reference gene for serum or plasma miRNA expression qPCR studies has not been reached and none of the potential candidates have yet convincingly validated. We proposed new in silico approach finding suitable human, circulating miRNAs identified set endogenous based profiling experiments from Gene Expression Omnibus. used 3 known normalization algorithms (NormFinder, BestKeeper, GeNorm) calculate score. searched universal validated our...

The increasing availability of drones produces a number opportunities for integrating them in everyday settings and using to create engaging experiences users. In this paper, we investigate how can support amateur runners their endeavours. We explore the possible roles during running races. Through two field studies multiple semi-structured interviews, gain new insights on could augment experience both supporters organised Finally, contribute set future directions into sports experience.

While fitness trackers are gaining popularity, they struggle to offer long-term health benefits, largely due their inability engaging goals. Understanding how can suggest and update goals lead building improved systems that support wellbeing. We investigate tracker users ways help them commit those compared algorithms for step goal setting in a pre-study. Next, we conducted two surveys (a vignette study survey using the users' Fitbit data) attitudes suggested goals, with without disclosing...

This paper presents a novel approach to complex process of electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) measurement data analysis. ECT is frequently employed for non-invasive monitoring industrial phenomena. Proposed methodology based on the premeditated integration spatial and temporal relations inherent in records into workflow analysis procedure. We propose concept interactive timeline that enables arranging visualization according user's current focus along evaluated proposed method using...

The presented paper proposes a hybrid neural architecture that enables intelligent data analysis efficacy to be boosted in smart sensor devices, which are typically resource-constrained and application-specific. postulated concept integrates prior knowledge with learning from examples, thus allowing devices used for the successful execution of machine even when volume training is highly limited, using compact underlying hardware. proposed comprises two interacting functional modules arranged...

Background: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is a method of estimating blood values from those recorded in the interstitial fluid. Because increasingly longer CGM measurements are possible, errors and data loss become more likely potentially damaging to accurate calculations glycemic variability (GV) indices. Our research investigates resistance recording loss. Methods: We collected 71 recordings (duration min: 2, max: 265, median: 42 days) patients with type 1 diabetes used three...

We aimed to define reference ranges of glycemic variability indices derived from continuous glucose monitoring data for non-diabetic infants during post-operative intensive care treatment after cardiac surgery procedures. performed a prospective cohort intervention study in pediatric unit (PICU). Non-diabetic aged 0-12 months corrective cardiovascular procedures were fitted upon arrival the PICU with system (iPro2, Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA). Thirteen calculated each patient. Complete...

The aim of this work was to design and implement a mechanism supporting collaborative sensemaking in system multiple mobile devices implementing spatial awareness.The is based on an observation how people tend manage organize information physical space.The developed attempts determine the relation between atomic elements basing relative position these time.The proposed solution simple Fuzzy Inference System theory Cognitive Maps.Physically, implemented for three tablets, which awareness...

We generalize the Lozi-like family introduced in Misiurewicz and \v{S}timac work from 2017. The generalized encompasses particular certain maps, orientation preserving or reversing Lozi maps large parameter regions of 2-dimensional border collision normal forms. prove that it possesses a strange attractor, arising as homoclinic class.

Background: The present paper proposes a novel approach for detecting the presence of unknown polymorphic patterns in random symbol sequences that also comprise already known patterns. Methods: We propose to represent rules define considered as regular expressions and show how these can be modeled using filter cascades neural convolutional layers. adopted autoencoder (CAE) pattern detection framework. To detect patterns, we first incorporated knowledge into CAE’s feature extractor by fixing...

Abstract We present TomoTable—a research prototype of a position sensing device hidden inside an ordinary table. While the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) field has extensively explored possibilities for spatially-aware multi-device interactions, methods that would enable such systems are still complex and hard to deploy in wild. TomoTable presents possibility easily deployable invisible positional uses electrical capacitance tomography (ECT). Electrodes embedded table structure provide...

The purpose of this work is to bound sofic topological entropy Toeplitz systems over residually finite groups and prove the Krieger Theorem about attaining arbitrary by systems. To achieve these results, we discuss certain properties in context finitely indexed normal subgroups group. It will help us formulate results almost independently natural approximation sequences groups.

We generalize the notion of an inverse sequence graph covers from zero-dimensional dynamical systems to any system.

We extend the result of Michal Misiurewicz assuring existence strange attractors for parametrized family $\{f_{(a,b)}\}$ orientation reversing Lozi maps to preserving case. That is, we rigorously determine an open subset parameter space which attractor $\mathcal{A}_{(a,b)}$ $f_{(a,b)}$ always exists and exhibits chaotic properties. Moreover, prove that is maximal in some region, arises as closure unstable manifold a fixed point, on $f_{(a,b)}|_{\mathcal{A}_{(a,b)}}$ mixing. also show vary...

We prove the following generalization of Cartwright-Littlewood fixed point theorem. Suppose $ h\colon~{\mathbb R}^{2}\to{\mathbb R}^{2} is an orientation preserving planar homeomorphism, and X acyclic continuum. Let C be a component \cap h(X) $. If there c \in such that {\mathcal O}_{+} (c) \subseteq or O}_{-} then also contains h$. Our result generalizes earlier results Ostrovski Boroński, answers Question from Boroński's work in 2017. The proof inspired by short Cartwright Littlewood due...
