Vertical and Leg Stiffness Modeling During Running: Effect of Speed and Incline

Kamiar Aminian, Frédéric Meyer, Grégoire Millet, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard

A spring mass model is often used to describe human running, allowing to understand the concept of elastic energy storage and restitution. The stiffness of the spring is a key parameter and different methods have been developed to estimate both the vertica ...

Comparison of questionnaire items for discomfort glare studies in daylit spaces

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Caroline Karmann, Sneha Jain, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek, Clotilde Marie A Pierson

When studying discomfort glare, researchers tend to rely on a single questionnaire item to obtain user evaluations. It is unclear whether the choice of questionnaire item affects the distribution of user responses and leads to inconsistencies between studi ...

An Ordinal Latent Variable Model of Conflict Intensity

Robert West

Measuring the intensity of events is crucial for monitoring and tracking armed conflict. Advances in automated event extraction have yielded massive data sets of '' who did what to whom '' micro-records that enable datadriven approaches to monitoring confl ...

Assessing Computational Thinking: Development and Validation of the Algorithmic Thinking Test for Adults

Olivier Lévêque, Cécile Hardebolle, Marc Lafuente Martinez

This study describes the development and validation process of a computational thinking (CT) test for adults. The team designed a set of items and explored a subset of those through two qualitative pilots. Then, in order to provide validity evidence based ...

Evaluation of a shortened version of the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) for upper extremity function after stroke: The Mini-ARAT

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury

Objectives (i) to create a shortened version of the Action Research Arm Test scale, (ii) to investigate its psychometric properties compared to the original scale and (iii) to externally validate it within an independent cohort. Design Prospective longitud ...

Study on the internal crack network of the ASR-affected concrete by the tomography-based numerical model

Jean-François Molinari, Emil Gallyamov, Mahdieh Shakoorioskooie

In this paper, we present a novel finite element model to simulate alkali-silica reaction in a realistic concrete meso-structure. Application of the internal ASR loading leads to the evolution of multiple deviated cracks and corresponding macroscopic expan ...

Evaluating the Explainers: Black-Box Explainable Machine Learning for Student Success Prediction in MOOCs

Vinitra Swamy, Bahar Radmehr, Mirko Marras, Natasa Krco

Neural networks are ubiquitous in applied machine learning for education. Their pervasive success in predictive performance comes alongside a severe weakness, the lack of explainability of their decisions, especially relevant in human-centric fields. We im ...

Self-learning surrogate models in superstructure optimization

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Julia Granacher, Michel Lopez

In this contribution, we propose an algorithm for replacing non-linear process simulation integrated in multi-level optimization of an energy system superstructure with surrogate models. With our approach, we demonstrate that surrogate models are a valid t ...

Questions and controversies in the study of time-varying functional connectivity in resting fMRI

Raphaël Pierre Liégeois, Jonathan Raël Lurie, Daniel Kessler

The brain is a complex, multiscale dynamical system composed of many interacting regions. Knowledge of the spatiotemporal organization of these interactions is critical for establishing a solid understanding of the brain's functional architecture and the r ...
