On the Validity of Consensus

Rachid Guerraoui, Seth Gilbert, Jovan Komatovic, Manuel José Ribeiro Vidigueira, Pierre Philippe Civit

The Byzantine consensus problem involves.. processes, out of which t < n could be faulty and behave arbitrarily. Three properties characterize consensus: (1) termination, requiring correct (nonfaulty) processes to eventually reach a decision, (2) agreement ...

Vertical and Leg Stiffness Modeling During Running: Effect of Speed and Incline

Kamiar Aminian, Grégoire Millet, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard, Frédéric Meyer

A spring mass model is often used to describe human running, allowing to understand the concept of elastic energy storage and restitution. The stiffness of the spring is a key parameter and different methods have been developed to estimate both the vertica ...

Assessing Computational Thinking: Development and Validation of the Algorithmic Thinking Test for Adults

Olivier Lévêque, Jessica Elke Dehler Zufferey, Cécile Hardebolle, Marc Lafuente Martinez

This study describes the development and validation process of a computational thinking (CT) test for adults. The team designed a set of items and explored a subset of those through two qualitative pilots. Then, in order to provide validity evidence based ...

The competent Computational Thinking Test: Development and Validation of an Unplugged Computational Thinking Test for Upper Primary School

Francesco Mondada, Barbara Bruno, Jessica Elke Dehler Zufferey, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy

With the increasing importance of Computational Thinking (CT) at all levels of education, it is essential to have valid and reliable assessments. Currently, there is a lack of such assessments in upper primary school. That is why we present the development ...

All you need is time to generalise the Goman-Khrabrov dynamic stall model

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Fatma Ayancik Cinoglu

Dynamic stall on airfoils negatively impacts their aerodynamic performance and can lead to structural damage. Accurate prediction and modelling of the dynamic stall loads are crucial for a more robust design of wings and blades that operate under unsteady ...

Comparing the psychometric properties of two primary school Computational Thinking (CT) assessments for grades 3 and 4: The Beginners' CT test (BCTt) and the competent CT test (cCTt)

Barbara Bruno, Jessica Elke Dehler Zufferey, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy

Introduction: With the increasing amount of research around Computational Thinking (CT) and endeavors introducing CT into curricula worldwide, assessing CT at all levels of formal education is of utmost importance to ensure that CT-related learning objecti ...

Ecological momentary assessment of emotional processing: An exploratory analysis comparing daily life and a psychotherapy analogue session

Mehdi Gholam

Background: Emotional processing has been studied in psychotherapy as a state-dependent, sequential process of change. So far, no studies have applied this conceptualisation of emotional processing to the assessments of emotion in daily life. This is parti ...

Il demone dell'analogia: Ovvero affinità e divergenze fra il compagno aristotele e noi

Nicola Braghieri

This laconic discourse uses the Aristotelian authority to define the role of the analogical procedure in the government of the architectural composition. Respecting its ambiguous balance between mathematical method and attitude of the imagination, analogy ...

Mixing and diffusion for rough shear flows

Maria Colombo, Klaus Martin Widmayer

This article addresses mixing and diffusion properties of passive scalars advected by rough (

C^\alpha

) shear flows. We show that in general, one cannot expect a rough shear flow to increase the rate of inviscid mixing to more than that of a smooth shear ...

The formation of Coasean institutions to provide university knowledge for innovation: a case study and econometric evidence for Switzerland

Dominique Foray

"Coasean" institutions are an alternative institutional form that provides a solution to some market and coordination failures. As such they can weaken considerably the case for public subsidies in a vast range of context. They are "market-based" and an in ...

Finite-size corrections of defect energy levels involving ionic polarization

Alfredo Pasquarello, Julia Anna Wiktor, Stefano Falletta

We develop a scheme for finite-size corrections of vertical transition energies and single-particle energy levels involving defect states with built-in ionic polarization in supercell calculations. The method accounts on an equal footing for the screening ...

Turning negative into positives! Exploiting 'negative' results in Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) research

Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Camille Marie Jeunet

Results that do not confirm expectations are generally referred to as 'negative' results. While essential for scientific progress, they are too rarely reported in the literature - Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) research is no exception. This led us to organ ...

Questions and controversies in the study of time-varying functional connectivity in resting fMRI

Raphaël Pierre Liégeois, Jonathan Raël Lurie

The brain is a complex, multiscale dynamical system composed of many interacting regions. Knowledge of the spatiotemporal organization of these interactions is critical for establishing a solid understanding of the brain's functional architecture and the r ...

Real-time EEG Feedback on Alpha Power Lateralization Leads to Behavioral Improvements in a Covert Attention Task

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Luca Tonin, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Christoph Schneider

Visual attention can be spatially oriented, even in the absence of saccadic eye-movements, to facilitate the processing of incoming visual information. One behavioral proxy for this so-called covert visuospatial attention (CVSA) is the validity effect (VE) ...

Asymptotic Freedom and Large Spin Antiferromagnetic Chains

Frédéric Mila, Samuel Gozel

Building on the mapping of large-S spin chains onto the O(3) nonlinear sigma model with coupling constant 2/S, and on general properties of that model (asymptotic freedom, implying that perturbation theory is valid at high energy, and Elitzur's conjecture ...

P300 in the park: feasibility of online data acquisition and integration in a Mobile Brain/Body Imaging setting

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

In the last years Mobile Brain/Body Imaging (MoBI) has been increasingly used to study cognition in the real world to give more ecological validity to brain imaging studies currently carried out only inside the lab. To increase portability of the setup and ...
