Can Children Benefit from Technological Applications for Body Posture Correction to Improve Handwriting? A Study to Quantitatively Investigate the Correlation between Body Posture and Handwriting Quality

Pierre Dillenbourg, Daniel Carnieto Tozadore, Chenyang Wang, Barbara Bruno

Various technological applications for body posture correction have been proposed in order to improve handwriting or facilitate its learning for children, under the common-sense assumption that a better posture promotes better handwriting. However, very li ...

Acoustical Features as Knee Health Biomarkers: A Critical Analysis

David Atienza Alonso, Vincent Stadelmann, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Jérôme Paul Rémy Thevenot, Christodoulos Kechris

Acoustical knee health assessment has long promised an alternative to clinically available medical imaging tools, but this modality has yet to be adopted in medical practice. The field is currently led by machine learning models processing acoustical featu ...

A machine learning architecture for including wave breaking in envelope-type wave models

Debbie Eeltink, Yuxuan Liu

Wave breaking is a complex physical process about which open questions remain. For some applications, it is critical to include breaking effects in phase-resolved envelope-based wave models such as the non-linear Schr & ouml;dinger. A promising approach is ...

Shared functional connectome fingerprints following ritualistic ayahuasca intake

Enrico Amico, Hanna Tolle, Pablo Mallaroni

The knowledge that brain functional connectomes are unique and reliable has enabled behaviourally relevant inferences at a subject level. However, whether such "fingerprints" persist under altered states of consciousness is unknown. Ayahuasca is a potent s ...

A review of time reversal-based methods applied to fault location in power networks

Mario Paolone, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Zhaoyang Wang, Reza Razzaghi

Electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR)-based methods have been applied to the problem of fault location in power networks since 2012. Over the past decade, considerable theoretical investigations have led to a continuous improvement of the EMTR method in ter ...

The role of feedback and guidance as intervention methods to foster computational thinking in educational robotics learning activities for primary school

Francesco Mondada, Jean-Philippe Pellet, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy, Christian Giang, Vaios Papaspyros, Evgeniia Bonnet, Bernard Baumberger

Computational thinking (CT) is considered an emerging competence domain linked to 21st-century competences, and educational robotics (ER) is increasingly recognised as a tool to develop CT competences. This is why researchers recommend developing intervent ...

A Wearable Ultrasound Interface for Prosthetic Hand Control

Xingchen Yang

Ultrasound can non-invasively detect muscle deformations and has great potential applications in prosthetic hand control. Traditional ultrasound equipment was usually too bulky to be applied in wearable scenarios. This research presented a compact ultrasou ...

Design considerations for robotically assembled through-tenon timber joints

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Nicolas Henry Pierre Louis Rogeau, Pierre Latteur

This research investigates the robotic assembly of timber structures connected by wood–wood connections. As the digitization of the timber construction sector progresses, digital tools, such as industrial robotic arms and Computer Numerical Control machine ...
