Artificial Life in Quantum Technologies
(Nature Publishing, 2016-02-08)
We develop a quantum information protocol that models the biological behaviours of individuals living in a natural selection scenario. The artificially engineered evolution of the quantum living units shows the fundamental ...
Classifier Subset Selection for the Stacked Generalization Method Applied to Emotion Recognition in Speech
(MDPI, 2016-01)
In this paper, a new supervised classification paradigm, called classifier subset selection for stacked generalization (CSS stacking), is presented to deal with speech emotion recognition. The new approach consists of an ...
Changes in Surface Tension of Aqueous Humor in Anterior Segment Ocular Pathologies
(MDPI, 2016-09)
The aim of this study was to identify and determine differences in surface tension (ST) of aqueous humor (AH) in patients with cataract, glaucoma and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED). Two hundred and two samples of AH ...
Thermodynamics of Resonant Scalars in AdS/CFT and implications for QCD
(E. D. P Sciences, 2016)
We explore the thermodynamics of a simple 5D Einstein-dilaton gravity model with a massive scalar field, with asymptotically AdS behavior in the UV. The holographic renormalization is addressed in details, and analytical ...
Urban regeneration as population health intervention: a health impact assessment in the Bay of Pasaia (Spain)
(Biomed Central, 2016-09-15)
Background: An important health issue in urban areas is how changes arising from the regeneration of city-areas affect social determinants of health and equity. This paper examines the impacts attributable to a new fish ...
Selection of Entropy Based Features for Automatic Analysis of Essential Tremor
(MDPI, 2016-05)
Biomedical systems produce biosignals that arise from interaction mechanisms. In a general form, those mechanisms occur across multiple scales, both spatial and temporal, and contain linear and non-linear information. In ...
Organotypic Cultures as a Model to Study Adult Neurogenesis in CNS Disorders
(Hindawi, 2016)
Neural regeneration resides in certain specific regions of adult CNS. Adult neurogenesis occurs throughout life, especially from the subgranular zone of hippocampus and the subventricular zone, and can be modulated in ...
Possible therapeutic doses of cannabinoid type 1 receptor antagonist reverses key alterations in fragile X syndrome mouse model
(MDPI, 2016-08)
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common monogenetic cause of intellectual disability. The cognitive deficits in the mouse model for this disorder, the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (Fmr1) knockout (KO) mouse, have ...
Assessment of Biomass Energy Potential and Forest Carbon Stocks in Biscay (Spain)
(MDPI, 2016-03)
The aim of this research is to identify, quantify and characterize the potential available forest biomass of Pinus radiata D. Don and Eucalyptus globulus Labill. across Biscay province in northern Spain. In order to do ...
Impact of chronic hepatitis C on mortality in cirrhotic patients admitted to intensive-care unit
(Biomed Central, 2016-03-12)
Background: Cirrhosis and severe sepsis are factors associated with increased mortality in intensive care unit (ICU), but chronic hepatitis C (CHC) has been less studied in ICU. The aim of this study was to analyze the ...
