"We report the existence of financial stylized facts in a system of mechanical vehicles driven by vibration (VDV). The VDVs are restricted to a closed geometry that is composed of two chambers connected by an opening whi...

"We present a new method for obtaining the positions of each person attending an outdoor gathering. From this information it is possible to calculate the density field and the number of people. A dual-camera (visible + i...

"The General Transit Feed Specication (GTFS) is a data format used to express public transportation schedules and associated geographic information created in 2006 by Google. It is now widely used all around the world in...

"Gravitatonal waves, the seed of the 2015 Nobel’s prize are the cause of several complex celestial phenomena that is non-observable for the naked eye. Their identification, classification and study is s(ll a handmade w...

"After encoding, memories go through a labile state followed by a stabilization process known as consolidation. Once consolidated they can enter a new labile state after the presentation of a reminder (cue) of the origin...

"Episodic memory is the ability to recover past experiences and projects ourselves into the future. It is related to contextual information (both spatially and temporally). This type of memory is highly sensitive to agi...

"This work proposes a methodological approach to the insertion of a particular artifact produced by eyes blinking, in EEG data, in order to create a pseudo-real dataset, which in turn provides an experimental setup to te...

"False memories are memories of events that did not happen or are altered in their content. It has been shown that not only small distortions can be introduced into old memories but also entire memories of events that ne...

"Tilted rotors in multirotor vehicles have shown to be useful for different practical reasons. For instance, increasing yaw maneuverability or enabling full position and attitude control of hexarotor vehicles. It has als...

"We investigate the nonlinear response of waveguides doped with dimers of noble-metal nanoparticles using a simple effective model. Our results show a markedly distinctive response depending on the dimer gap."

"We understand consciousness as the subjective experience the "How is it..." to perceive a scene, recognize a face, hear a sound, or reflect on the experience itself. It can be considered a dynamic process and it can be...

"We present here a general formalism for equipping simulated pedestrians with an avoidance mechanism. The central idea is to use a short-range target which is adjusted dynamically depending on the environment and thus m...

"We analyze the impact of higher-order nonlinearity on ultrashort solitons by means of a photon-conserving propagation equation, and propose an original and direct method for its estimation."

"Sleep benefits off-line consolidation of recent acquired information. Insufficient sleep impairs health, especially key components of cognition, resulting in poorer attention and impaired long-term memory. Currently, d...

"Real world scenarios are increasingly being represented with graph databases. Networks in general, and social networks in particular, can be represented as node in a graph, linked through edges. When relationships and n...

"In this work, concepts of cluster space approach are extended through a novel formulation, namely Tree Organization Method (TOM), to systematically arrange formations of mobile robots. TOM consists in analyzing the =-ro...

"Sleep scoring it a common method used by experts to monitor the quantity and quality of sleep in people, but it is a time-consuming and labour-intense task."

"Analyze the contribution of memory reactivation to the enhancement and updating of words’ meaning. Our hypothesis is that reactivating a novel word´s meaning could be a key mechanism for its lexical integration and p...
