Purpose: Despite being an authentic carrier of various cultural practices, the human body is often underutilised to access the knowledge of human body. Digital inventions today have created new avenues to open up cultural data resources, yet mainly as appa ...
In the age of digital and big data, the interaction with machines is central and emphasizes the sophistication of user interfaces and browsing tools. However, in the domain of digital artwork collections, most platforms propose access to images through key ...
Formalised knowledge systems, including universities and research institutes, are important for contemporary societies. They are, however, also arguably failing humanity when their impact is measured against the level of progress being made in stimulating ...
This study contributes to the ongoing discussion on how to attribute and evaluate the contribution of transdisciplinary research to sustainable development. As co-created knowledge is a key product of transdisciplinary research, we tested the hypothesis th ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have become de facto tools in many real-life applications to offer a wide range of benefits for individuals and our society. A classic ML model is typically trained with a large-scale static dataset in ...
Visual estimates of stimulus features are systematically biased toward the features of previously encountered stimuli. Such serial dependencies have often been linked to how the brain maintains perceptual continuity. However, serial dependence has mostly b ...
In a geotechnical excavation, back analyses are routinely performed using the measured field responses to derive the material parameter values for the different soil layers present at the site. For the purpose of back analyses, the engineers will usually m ...
The essential aspects of drawing cannot be taught theoretically. They can only be learned through practice by creating a certain intimacy with the work. The action of hand drawing initiates a transformative bodily experience generating intensities, frictio ...
With the crisis of Fordist capitalism and the rise of “cognitive capitalism”, the ‘knowledge worker’ became a crucial figure in contemporary cities. In such a context, once away from the sphere of the family, after concluding the university studies, for th ...
Short-term field study involves groups of students working in an off-campus (sometimes international) setting, and often involves working on realistic, open-ended problems, in interaction with a host community. Such learning experiences are intended to dev ...
