Torque teno virus (TTV) is considered to be an ubiquitous member of the commensal human blood virome commonly reported in mixed genotype co-infections. This study investigates the genomic diversity of TTV in blood samples from 816 febrile Tanzanian childre ...
Characteristics of the spent nuclear fuel (SNF) are typically calculated, requiring validation a priori. The validation process relies on the difference between calculations and measurements, namely the bias. Usually, predicting the bias based on benchmark ...
Phase synchronizations in models of coupled oscillators such as the Kuramoto model have been widely studied with pairwise couplings on arbitrary topologies, showing many unexpected dynamical behaviors. Here, based on a recent formulation the Kuramoto model ...
This dissertation introduces traffic forecasting methods for different network configurations and data availability.
Chapter 2 focuses on single freeway cases.
Although its topology is simple, the non-linearity of traffic features makes this prediction sti ...
Stroke volume (SV) is a major biomarker of cardiac function, reflecting ventricular-vascular coupling. Despite this, hemodynamic monitoring and management seldomly includes assessments of SV and remains predominantly guided by brachial cuff blood pressure ...
This article considers solving an overdetermined system of linear equations in peer-to-peer multiagent networks. The network is assumed to be synchronous and strongly connected. Each agent has a set of local data points, and their goal is to compute a line ...
Understanding the influence of running-induced acute fatigue on the homeostasis of the body is essential to mitigate the adverse effects and optimize positive adaptations to training. Fatigue is a multifactorial phenomenon, which influences biomechanical, ...
Electroadhesion endows robots with super-human abilities: mechanical geckoes that climb vertical walls and soft grippers that grasp the most delicate objects. Based on electrostatics, the adhesion forces are turned on and off by an electrical signal, promi ...
A system for measuring synchrony between two or more regions, or within a single region, of a subject's brain. The system can include a signal conditioning module in communication with a phase extraction module. The signal conditioning module can receive a ...
