Dealing with the Effects of Sensor Displacement in Wearable Activity Recognition
(MDPI, 2014-06)Most wearable activity recognition systems assume a predefined sensor deployment that remains unchanged during runtime. However, this assumption does not reflect real-life conditions. During the normal use of such systems, ... -
Spinal circuits can accommodate interaction torques during multijoint limb movements
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-11-11)The dynamic interaction of limb segments during movements that involve multiple joints creates torques in one joint due to motion about another. Evidence shows that such interaction torques are taken into account during ... -
Entanglement negativity in the harmonic chain out of equilibrium
(IOP Publishing, 2014-12-08)We study the entanglement in a chain of harmonic oscillators driven out of equilibrium by preparing the two sides of the system at different temperatures, and subsequently joining them together. The steady state is constructed ... -

BACKGROUND: Lipophilic antioxidants play dual key roles in edible seeds (i) as preservatives of cell integrity and seed viability by preventing the oxidation of fats, and (ii) as essential nutrients for human and animal ... -
Physiological modules for generating discrete and rhythmic movements: Component analysis of EMG signals
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-01-09)A central question in Neuroscience is that of how the nervous system generates the spatiotemporal commands needed to realize complex gestures, such as handwriting. A key postulate is that the central nervous system (CNS) ... -
Self-Organized Criticality, Plasticity and Sensorimotor Coupling. Explorations with a Neurorobotic Model in a Behavioural Preference Task
Aguilera Lizarraga, Miguel; Barandiaran Fernández, Xabier Eugenio ; ; (Public Library of Science, 2015-02-23)
During the last two decades, analysis of 1/f noise in cognitive science has led to a considerable progress in the way we understand the organization of our mental life. However, there is still a lack of specific models ... -
Scalable quantum memory in the ultrastrong coupling regime
