Discrimination of numerical proportions: A comparison of binomial and Gaussian models
Observers discriminated the numerical proportion of two sets of elements (N = 9, 13, 33, and 65) that differed either by color or orientation. According to the standard Thurstonian approach, the accuracy of proportion discrimination is determined by irredu ...
Springer2017Fluorescence lifetime imaging using a single photon avalanche diode array sensor
Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Ivan Michel Antolovic, Samuel Burri
Single photon detectors allows us work with the weakest fluorescence signals. Single photon arrays, combined with ps-controlled gating allow us to create image maps of fluorescence lifetimes, which can be used for in-vivo discrimination of tissue activity. ...
2017Is there a common cause for perceptual decline in the aging brain?
Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke
Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging strongly affects vision. Whereas optical deficits are well documented, much less is known perceptual deficits. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually found that older par ...
Sage Publications Ltd2016Efficient voltammetric discrimination of free bilirubin from uric acid and ascorbic acid by a CVD nanographite-based microelectrode
Giovanni De Micheli, László Forró, Sandro Carrara, Arnaud Magrez, Irene Taurino
We report a novel electrochemical sensor based on nanographite grown on platinum microelectrodes for the determination of bilirubin in the presence of normal concentrations of albumin. The albumin is a protein with an intrinsic ability to bind the bilirubi ...
Elsevier Science Bv2014The trail making test as a screening instrument for driving performance in older drivers; a translational research
Michael Herzog, Daniela Herzig, Isabel Cardoso, Paul Vaucher
Background: In many countries, primary care physicians determine whether or not older drivers are fit to drive. Little, however, is known regarding the effects of cognitive decline on driving performance and the means to detect it. This study explores to w ...
BioMed Central2014Transformation-Invariant Dictionary Learning for Classification with 1-Sparse Representations
Pascal Frossard, Elif Vural, Ahmet Caner Yüzügüler
Sparse representations of images in well-designed dictionaries can be used for effective classification. Meanwhile, training data available in most realistic settings are likely to be exposed to geometric transformations, which poses a challenge for the de ...
2014Vitamin E and Vitamin E Acetate Absorption from Self-assembly Systems under Pancreas Insufficiency Conditions
We determined the bioavailability of vitamin E from self-assembly structures in patients with diagnosed chronic pancreas insufficiency. Vitamin E solubilized in dispersed inverted bicontinuous cubic phase and in micellar formulation was delivered directly ...
Swiss Chemical Soc2014"Self pop-out": agency enhances self-recognition in visual search
Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Oliver Alan Kannape, Joan Llobera Mahy, Mei Ling Melanie Lim
In real-life situations, we are often required to recognize our own movements among movements originating from other people. In social situations, these movements are often correlated (for example, when dancing or walking with others) adding considerable d ...
Springer2013Attention-Related Potentials Allow for a Highly Accurate Discrimination of Mild Cognitive Impairment Subtypes
The three most frequent forms of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are single-domain amnestic MCI (sd-aMCI), single-domain dysexecutive MCI (sd-dMCI) and multiple-domain amnestic MCI (md-aMCI). Brain imaging differences among single domain subgroups of MCI w ...
Karger2013Electrochemical Pseudo-Titration of Water-Soluble Antioxidants
Hubert Girault, Andreas Stephan Lesch, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Alice Adei Neequaye
An amperometric test for the antioxidant power (AOP) of biological and food samples is presented. The gist of the method is to measure by linear sweep voltammetry the anodic current produced during the oxidation of the labile species present in the sample ...
