Removal of Tetracycline Pollutants by Adsorption and Magnetic Separation Using Reduced Graphene Oxide Decorated with Alpha-Fe₂O₃ Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2019-02-26)
Nanocomposites of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) with ferromagnetic alpha-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles have been prepared in-situ by thermal treatment. The structure and morphology of the hybrid material were studied by X-ray ...
A Feedback Control Loop Optimisation Methodology for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
(MDPI, 2019-09-10)
Wind turbines usually present several feedback control loops to improve or counteract some specific performance or behaviour of the system. It is common to find these multiple feedback control loops in Floating Offshore ...
Magnetoimpedance in Symmetric and Non-Symmetric Nanostructured Multilayers: A Theoretical Study
(MDPI, 2019-04-12)
Intensive studies of the magnetoimpedance (MI) effect in nanostructured multilayers provide a good phenomenological basis and theoretical description for the symmetric case when top and bottom layers of ferromagnet/condu ...
User-Aware Dialogue Management Policies over Attributed Bi-Automata
(Springer, 2018-07-30)
Designing dialogue policies that take user behavior into account is complicated due to user vari- ability and behavioral uncertainty. Attributed Prob- abilistic Finite State Bi-Automata (A-PFSBA) have proven to be a promising ...
Detection of Sarcasm and Nastiness: New Resources for Spanish Language
(Springer, 2018-06-29)
The main goal of this work is to provide the cognitive computing community with valuable resources to analyze and simulate the intentionality and/or emotions embedded in the language employed in social media. Specifically, ...
Corrective Focus Detection in Italian Speech Using Neural Networks
(Óbuda University, 2018-11)
The corrective focus is a particular kind of prosodic prominence where the speaker is intended to correct or to emphasize a concept. This work develops an Artificial Cognitive System (ACS) based on Recurrent ...
Sensor Applications of Soft Magnetic Materials Based on Magneto-Impedance, Magneto-Elastic Resonance and Magneto-Electricity
(MDPI, 2014-04-25)
The outstanding properties of selected soft magnetic materials make them successful candidates for building high performance sensors. In this paper we present our recent work regarding different sensing technologies based ...
Metallic Glass/PVDF Magnetoelectric Laminates for Resonant Sensors and Actuators: A Review
(MDPI, 2017-05-31)
Among magnetoelectric (ME) heterostructures, ME laminates of the type Metglas-like/PVDF (magnetostrictive+piezoelectric constituents) have shown the highest induced ME voltages, usually detected at the magnetoelastic ...
A Dialogue-Act Taxonomy for a Virtual Coach Designed to Improve the Life of Elderly
(MDPI, 2019-07-11)
This paper presents a dialogue act taxonomy designed for the development of a conversational agent for elderly. The main goal of this conversational agent is to improve life quality of the user by means of coaching sessions ...
