Radio-aware service-level scheduling to minimize downlink traffic delay through Mobile Edge Computing
(ICTS, 2016)
One of the most challenging problems in mobile broadband networks is how to assign the available radio resources among the different mobile users. Traditionally, research proposals are either speci c to some type of traffic ...
Breaking Down the Bilingual Cost in Speech Production
(Cognitive Science, 2016)
Bilinguals have been shown to perform worse than monolinguals in a variety of verbal tasks. This
study investigated this bilingual verbal cost in a large-scale picture-naming study conducted in Spanish.
We explored how ...
Foreign-accented speech modulates linguistic anticipatory processes
(Neuropsychologia, 2016)
Listeners are able to anticipate upcoming words during sentence comprehension, and, as a result, they also pre-activate semantically related words. In the present study, we aim at exploring whether these anticipatory ...
Borne before the Moone: A Social and Political History of Basque at the Dawn of the Twentieth Century
(2016-02-03)
This study explores how Basque was perceived at the start of the twentieth century. Utilizing contemporary periodicals, pamphlets and books as a foundation, the discourse surrounding Basque has been analyzed for thematic ...
Non-aqueous Li- and Na-O2 batteries: Study and analysis of electrochemical processes
(2016-12-14)
Las baterías M-oxígeno, siendo M un metal alcalino, son conocidas por su extraordinaria densidad energética teórica. En esta tesis se estudian en detalle las reacciones que tienen lugar en las baterías de litio y de sodio ...
Semantic parafoveal-on-foveal effects and preview benefits in reading: Evidence from Fixation Related Potentials
(Brain and Language, 2016)
During reading parafoveal information can affect the processing of the word currently fixated (parafovea-on-fovea effect) and words perceived parafoveally can facilitate their subsequent processing when they are fixated ...
Fast and sequence-adaptive whole-brain segmentation using parametric Bayesian modeling
(NeuroImage, 2016)
Quantitative analysis of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain requires accurate automated segmentation of anatomical structures. A desirable feature for such segmentation methods is to be robust against ...
Automated Segmentation of the Human Hippocampus Along Its Longitudinal Axis
(Human Brain Mapping, 2016)
The human hippocampal formation is a crucial brain structure for memory and cognitive function that is closely related to other subcortical and cortical brain regions. Recent neuroimaging studies have revealed differences ...
Evaluation of multi-echo ICA denoising for task based fMRI studies: Block designs, rapid event-related designs, and cardiac-gated fMRI
(NeuroImage, 2016)
Multi-echo fMRI, particularly the multi-echo independent component analysis (ME-ICA) algorithm, has previously proven useful for increasing the sensitivity and reducing false positives for functional MRI (fMRI) based resting ...
The effects of motivational reward on the pathological attentional blink following right hemisphere stroke
(Neuropsychologia, 2016)
Recent work has shown that attentional deficits following stroke can be modulated by motivational stimulation, particularly anticipated monetary reward. Here we examined the effects of anticipated reward on the pathological ...
