Tripping is considered a major cause of fall in older people. Therefore, foot clearance (i.e., height of the foot above ground during swing phase) could be a key factor to better understand the complex relationship between gait and falls. This paper presen ...

Given a geometrically unirational variety over an infinite base field, we show that every finite separable extension of the base field that splits the variety is the residue field of a closed point. As an application, we obtain a characterization of functi ...
To shield solutions carrying hyperpolarized nuclear magnetization from rapid relaxation during transfer through low fields, the transfer duct can be threaded through an array of permanent magnets. The advantages are illustrated for solutions containing hyp ...
In the report, prominent researchers from Scandinavia, the US and Switzerland draw on a variety of perspectives and experiences to discuss the challenges in the field of educational research. The report is based on material from the programme’s conference ...
Technological advances in sensing and portable computing devices and wireless communication has lead to an increase in the number and variety of sensing enabled devices (e.g. smartphones or sensing garments). Pervasive computing and activity recognition sy ...

The advent of nanotechnology has allowed scientists to study light–matter interactions at the nanoscale. A considerable amount of fundamental knowledge has accumulated in the past two decades and the field of nano-optics may now in fact be on the cusp of d ...
Personal learning environment (PLE) solutions aim at empowering learners to design (ICT and web-based) environments for their activities in different learning contexts and even for transitions between these contexts. Hereby, recommender systems which are h ...
The jamming scenario of disordered media, formulated about ten years ago, has in recent years been advanced by analyzing model systems of granular media. This has led to various new concepts that are increasingly being explored a variety of systems. This c ...
The sliding window approach is the most widely used technique to detect objects from an image. In the past few years, classifiers have been improved in many ways to increase the scanning speed. Apart from the classifier design (such as the cascade), the sc ...
