Individual differences in processing speed mediate a relationship between working memory and children's classroom behaviour (2013)
Journal Article

Previous studies have shown an association between children's working memory performance and teacher ratings of classroom inattention, leading to the suggestion that children who appear inattentive may in fact suffer from reduced working memory capac...

Dynamical and topological robustness of the mammalian cell cycle network: A reverse engineering approach (2013)
Journal Article

A common gene regulatory network model is the threshold Boolean network, used for example to model the Arabidopsis thaliana floral morphogenesis network or the fission yeast cell cycle network. In this paper, we analyze a logical model of the mammali... Read More about Dynamical and topological robustness of the mammalian cell cycle network: A reverse engineering approach.

Landmarks and ant search strategies after interrupted tandem runs (2013)
Journal Article

© 2014. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd. During a tandem run, a single leading ant recruits a single follower to an important resource such as a new nest. To examine this process, we used a motorized gantry, which has not previously been u... Read More about Landmarks and ant search strategies after interrupted tandem runs.

Compressed sensing signal and data acquisition in wireless sensor networks and internet of things (2013)
Journal Article

The emerging compressed sensing (CS) theory can significantly reduce the number of sampling points that directly corresponds to the volume of data collected, which means that part of the redundant data is never acquired. It makes it possible to creat... Read More about Compressed sensing signal and data acquisition in wireless sensor networks and internet of things.

Transformation of an uncertain video search pipeline to a sketch-based visual analytics loop (2013)
Journal Article

Traditional sketch-based image or video search systems rely on machine learning concepts as their core technology. However, in many applications, machine learning alone is impractical since videos may not be semantically annotated sufficiently, there...

Processing of low-carbon cast steels for offshore structural applications (2013)
Journal Article

Cast steels with carbon contents of approximately 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.2% (low-carbon steels) were processed. The investigated steels were first cast. Fully lath martensite was obtained after austenitization and water quenching of the cast steels. The... Read More about Processing of low-carbon cast steels for offshore structural applications.

Logic gates and complex dynamics in a hexagonal cellular automaton: The spiral rule (2013)
Journal Article

In previous works, hexagonal cellular automata (CA) have been studied as a variation of the famous Game of Life CA, mainly for spiral phenomena simulations; where the most interesting constructions are related to the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. In... Read More about Logic gates and complex dynamics in a hexagonal cellular automaton: The spiral rule.

Characteristic phenotypes associated with congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (type II) manifest at different stages of erythropoiesis (2013)
Journal Article

Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type II is an autosomally recessive form of hereditary anemia caused by SEC23B gene mutations. Patients exhibit characteristic phenotypes including multinucleate erythroblasts, erythrocytes with hypoglycosylated me...

Effects of 7.5% CO2-induced anxiety on individual performance: During a group computer combat game (2013)
Journal Article

The inhalation of 7.5% CO2 has been shown to induce cognitive effects similar to anxiety. Sixteen healthy participants (14 male mean age 25.6 years) inhaled either a mixture of 7.5% CO2 gas or air while playing a group combat computer game. Participa...
