Web scraping is the set of techniques used to automatically get some information from a website instead manually copying it. The goal scraper look for certain kinds information, extract, and aggregate it into new pages. In particular, scrapers are focused on transforming unstructured data save them in structured databases. this paper, among others kind scraping, we focus those that extract content page. adopt advertising field. To end, propose collaborative filtering-based system aimed at...
BACKGROUND: New technologies, such as telerehabilitation and gaming devices offer the possibility for patients to train at home.This opens challenge of safety patient he is called exercise neither with a therapist on patients' side nor linked remotely supervise sessions.AIM: To study safety, usability acceptance an autonomous system balance gait (the REWIRE platform) in home.DESIGN: Cohort SETTING: Community, stroke home POPULATION: 15 participants first-ever stroke, mild moderate residual...
Background Integrated care can generate health and social efficiencies through the defragmentation of adoption patient-centered preventive models. eHealth be a key enabling technology for integrated care. Objective The aim this study was to assess effectiveness cost-effectiveness implementation mobile (mHealth)-enabled model complex chronic patients. Methods As part CONNECARE Horizon 2020 project, prospective, pragmatic, two-arm, parallel trial held in rural region Catalonia, Spain. During 3...
Osteoarthritis is a disabling condition that often associated with other comorbidities. Total hip or knee arthroplasty an effective surgical treatment for osteoarthritis when indicated, but comorbidities can impair their results by increasing complications and social economic costs. Integrated care (IC) models supported eHealth increase efficiency through defragmentation of promote patient-centeredness.This study aims to assess the effectiveness cost-effectiveness implementing mobile health...
Current brain-computer interface software is often tailored to the needs of scientists and technicians therefore complex allow for versatile use. To facilitate home use interfaces (BCIs) a multifunctional P300 BCI with graphical user intended non-expert set-up control was designed implemented. The system includes applications spelling, web access, entertainment, artistic expression environmental control. In addition new software, it also hardware recording electroencephalogram (EEG) signals....
Comprehensive assessment of integrated care deployment constitutes a major challenge to ensure quality, sustainability and transferability both healthcare policies services in the transition toward coordinated service delivery scenario. To this end, manuscript articulates four different protocols aiming at assessing large-scale implementation care, which are being developed within umbrella regional project Nextcare (2016-2019), undertaken foster innovation technologically-supported for...
Background Integrated care (IC) can promote health and social efficiency through prioritization of preventive patient-centered models defragmentation collaboration across tiers, mobile (mHealth) be the cornerstone allowing for adoption IC. Objective This study aims to assess acceptability, usability, satisfaction an mHealth-enabled IC model complex chronic patients in both professionals. Methods As part CONNECARE Horizon 2020 project, a prospective, pragmatic, 2-arm, parallel, hybrid...
Background Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is an effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but compliance often unsatisfactory. Objective The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness intelligent monitoring system improving CPAP compliance. Methods This a prospective, open label, parallel, randomized controlled trial including 60 newly diagnosed patients with OSA requiring (Apnea–Hypopnea Index [AHI] >15) from Lleida, Spain....
Cognitive rehabilitation is established as a core intervention within programs following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Digitally enabled assistive technologies offer opportunities for clinicians to increase remote access supporting transition into home. Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems can harness the residual abilities of individuals with limited function gain control over computers through their waves.This paper presents an online cognitive application developed therapists, work...
Web advertising, one of the major sources income for a large number sites, is aimed at suggesting products and services to ever growing population Internet users. A significant part advertising consists textual ads, ubiquitous short text messages usually marked as sponsored links. There are two primary channels distributing ads: Sponsored Search (or Paid Advertising) Content Match Contextual Advertising). In this paper, we concentrate on latter, which devoted display commercial ads within...
Contextual advertising can be viewed as an information filtering task aimed at selecting suitable ads to suggested the final “user”, that is, Web page in hand. Starting from this insight, article we propose a novel system, which adopts collaborative approach perform contextual advertising. In particular, given page, system relies on classify content and suggest accordingly. Useful is extracted “inlinks”, similar pages link so doing, used content-based setting, giving rise hybrid system....
The BackHome system is a multi-functional BCI system, the final outcome of User Centred Design approach, whose ambition to move systems from laboratories into home people in need for their independent use. paper presents results testing and evaluation with end-users at own homes. Results show moderate good acceptance end-users, caregivers therapists; which reported promising usability levels, user satisfaction levels control use services support based on remote monitoring tools.
The world has widely changed in terms of communicating, acquiring, and storing information. Hundreds millions people are involved information retrieval tasks on a daily basis, particular while using Web search engine or searching their e-mail, making such field the dominant form access, overtaking traditional database-style searching. How to handle this huge amount now become challenging issue. In paper, after recalling main topics concerning retrieval, we present survey works literature...
Background Home-based noninvasive ventilation has proven cost-effective. But, adherence to therapy still constitutes a common clinical problem. We hypothesized that behavioral intervention supported by mobile health (mHealth) app could enhance patient self-efficacy. It is widely accepted mHealth-supported services can productive interactions among the stakeholders involved in home-based respiratory therapies. Objective This study aimed measure changes self-efficacy patients with chronic...
This paper presents the decision support system that has been defined and developed under umbrella of NESTORE project. The main goal proposed is to help users in selecting coaching plans by proposing personalised recommendations based on their behaviours preferences. Recognising such evolution over time therefore a crucial element for tailoring interaction with user. A three-layer composed pathways, activity plans, events, constitutes so-called timeline which analysis grounded. Various...
Abstract Background Due to the strict relation between protein function and structure, prediction of 3D-structure has become one most important tasks in bioinformatics proteomics. In fact, notwithstanding increase experimental data on structures available public databases, gap known sequences tertiary is constantly increasing. The need for automatic methods brought development several modelling tools, but a general methodology able solve problem not yet been devised, methodologies...
