Supervised and unsupervised investigation of the temporal dynamics of normal and pathological behaviour in the mouse and rat
(2017-09-22)
Modern neuroscience highlights the need for designing sophisticated behavioral readout of internal cognitive states. From a thorough analysis of classical behavioral test, my results supports the hypothesis that sensory ...
Statistical model for the reproducibility in ranking based feature selection
(2017-10-25)
Recently, concerns about the reproducibility of scientific studies have been growing among the scientific community, mainly due to the existing large quantity of irreproducible results. This has reach such an extent that ...
Identification of differentially expressed genes by means of outlier detection
(Biomed Central, 2018-09-10)
Background: An important issue in microarray data is to select, from thousands of genes, a small number of informative differentially expressed (DE) genes which may be key elements for a disease. If each gene is analyzed ...
Creative Chord Sequence Generation for Electronic Dance Music
(MDPI, 2018-09-19)
This paper describes the theory and implementation of a digital audio workstation plug-in for chord sequence generation. The plug-in is intended to encourage and inspire a composer of electronic dance music to explore loops ...
Spherical Deconvolution of MultichannelDiffusion MRI Data with Non-Gaussian NoiseModels and Spatial Regularization
(Biomed Central, 2015-10-15)
Spherical deconvolution (SD) methods are widely used to estimate the intra-voxel white-matter fiber orientations from diffusion MRI data. However, while some of these methods assume a zero-mean Gaussian distribution for ...
A Computational Analysis of Protein-Protein Interaction Networks in Neurodegenerative Diseases
(Biomed Central, 2008-06-20)
Background: Recent developments have meant that network theory is making an important contribution to the topological study of biological networks, such as protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. The identification of ...
Multicolor multiscale brain imaging with chromatic multiphoton serial microscopy
(Nature Publishing, 2019-04-10)
Large-scale microscopy approaches are transforming brain imaging, but currently lack efficient multicolor contrast modalities. We introduce chromatic multiphoton serial (ChroMS) microscopy, a method integrating one-shot ...
Identification of Enablers and Barriers for Public Bike Share System Adoption using Social Media and Statistical Models
(MDPI, 2019-11)
Public bike share (PBS) systems are meant to be a sustainable urban mobility solution in areas where different travel options and the practice of active transport modes can diminish the need on the vehicle and decrease ...
Metabolic efficiency with fast spiking in the squid axon
(Frontiers, 2012-11-15)
Fundamentally, action potentials in the squid axon are consequence of the entrance of sodium ions during the depolarization of the rising phase of the spike mediated by the outflow of potassium ions during the hyperpolarization ...
A Featureless Approach to 3D Polyhedral Building Modeling from Aerial Images
(MDPI, 2011)
This paper presents a model-based approach for reconstructing 3D polyhedral building models from aerial images. The proposed approach exploits some geometric and photometric properties resulting from the perspective ...
