A Neural Network Model Based on Co-occurrence Matrix for Fall Prediction
Fall avoidance systems reduce injuries due to unintentional falls, but most of them are fall detections that activate an alarm after the fall occurrence. Since predicting a fall is the most promising approach ...

Open AccessConstructal thermodynamics combined with infrared experiments to evaluate temperature differences in cells
The aim of this work was to evaluate differences in energy flows between normal and immortalized cells when these distinct biological systems are exposed to environmental stimulation. These differences were co...

Experimental Evaluation of the War** Deformation in Thin-Walled Open Section Profiles
The analysis of thin-walled open section beams can be performed by means of Vlasov’s theory of the sectorial areas. It is well-known that this type of profiles, when subjected to torsional actions, are charact...

Improving Colorwave with the probabilistic approach for reader-to-reader anti-collision TDMA protocols
In RFID systems, wireless communication among readers and tags is subject to electromagnetic interference. In particular, when several readers work closely, forming so-called dense reader environment, reader-t...

Open AccessTrade-off between maximum cardinality of collision sets and accuracy of RFID reader-to-reader collision detection
As the adoption of the radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology is increasing, many applications require a dense reader deployment. In such environments, reader-to-reader interference becomes a critica...

Defining New Structural and Mobile Support to Improve Hospital Facilities Access and Usability
Our target was to improve mobility services within a large hospital center. We considered a modern hospital as case study. Our work had the valuable support of the San Raffaele Hospital (hSR). About patients a...

Sobol Partial Distortion Algorithm for Fast Full Search in Block Motion Estimation
Block motion estimation is a cpu intensive task for video encoding. Many fast algorithms have been developed to solve this problem, trying to improve both block searching and block matching. Some of them reduc...
