A Cognitive Semantics analysis of the Lexical Units AT, ON and IN, in English
The use-in-context of three lexical units - at, on and in - is analized in thousands of examples from the BROWN corpus of written American English. Syntactic scrutiny confirms the lexicon-grammar continuum, as far as ...
A collection of resources for the study of educational reverse engineering activities in engineering design education
Educational Reverse Engineering Activities referred to as the acronym -EREA- help engineering design students to: Acquire and develop a set of abilities that raise their awareness of the design process; expand their sources ...
A comprehensive analysis of blastocyst chromosome mosaicism in PGT-A cycles
El mosaicismo cromosómico embrionario implica la coexistencia de 2 o más líneas celulares con distinta constitución cromosómica en un embrión. En contraste con las aneuploidías meióticas, las alteraciones en mosaico se ...
A comprehensive functional study of Caenorhabditis elegans rsr-2 uncovers a new link between splicing and transcription
Durant el transcurs d’un rastreig a gran escala per RNA d’interferència (iARN) en Caenorhabditis elegans, el gen rsr-2 va ser identificat com a interactor genètic del gen lin-35 Retinoblastoma, l’homòleg de la família ...
A comprehensive methodology to predict forest res behavior using complementary models
Els incendis a gran escala suposen un gran repte degut a l'impacte que tenen en la societat a diversos nivells. Aquest fenomen físic és un problema multidisciplinar que requereix de l'esforç d'investigadors de diferents ...
A Comprehensive multiomics approach towards understanding obsessive-compulsive disorder
To date, very little progress has been made towards elucidating the genetic causes of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In this project we have performed rare variant association study (RVAS) transcriptomics and ...
A Comprehensive screening of X-linked and miRNA-driven signatures of positive selection and the role of cis-regulatory elements in the human genome
The evolutionary history of the human genome has been shaped by the selection of multiple elements in response to different environmental pressures. The analysis of regulatory adaptations and the particularities of sexual ...
A Comprehensive study of arithmetic circuits and elliptic curves for efficient and scalable zero-knowledge proof systems
In recent years, zero-knowledge proofs have come to play a crucial role in distributed systems where there is no trust between the parties involved. Most popular proof systems are for the NP-complete language of arithmetic ...
A compressible Lagrangian framework for the simulation of underwater implosion problems
The development of efficient algorithms to understand implosion dynamics presents a number of challenges. The foremost challenge is to efficiently represent the coupled compressible fluid dynamics of internal air and ...
A computacional model to predict land-use and cover changes in mountain landscapes
Since the second half of the 20th century, an expansion of the forest in European mountain areas due to agricultural abandonment has been observed. The reduction of the agricultural intensity implies the disappearance of ...
A Computational Academic Integrity Framework
L'abast creixent i la naturalesa canviant dels programes acadèmics constitueixen un repte per a la integritat dels protocols tradicionals de proves i exàmens. L'objectiu d'aquesta tesi és introduir una alternativa als ...
A computational approach to rhythm description - Audio features for the computation of rhythm periodicity functions and their use in tempo induction and music content processing
Aquesta dissertació tracta del ritme musical. Més exactamente, tracta de programes informàtics que extreuen automàticament descripcions rítmiques a partir de senyals musicals d'àudio.<br/>Presentem nous algorismes per a ...
A computational approach to studying interdependence in string quartet performance
This dissertation proposes a computational data-driven methodology to measure music ensemble interdependence - the degree to which musicians interact and influence each other’s actions in order to achieve a shared goal - ...
A Computational Approach to the Synthesis of Chiral Sulfoxides
La síntesi de sulfòxids quirals ha estat investigada teòricament considerant dos dels mètodes més avançats: l'oxidació asimètrica de sulfurs amb peròxid d'hidrogen catalitzada per vanadi i el mètode DAG. El mecanisme ...
A computational micromechanics investigation of longitudinal strength in unidirectional fibre reinforced composites
The use of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) composites has grown in popularity over the last few decades. They offer outstanding mechanical properties combined with a low density, making them an excellent solution for many ...
A Computational Model for the Construction of Knowledge-based Collaborative Learning Distributed Applications
en català:<br/><br/>Un camp de recerca important dins del paradigma del Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) és la importància en la gestió eficaç de la informació d'esdeveniments generada durant l'activitat ...
A computational model of eye guidance, searching for text in real scene images
La cerca d’objectes de text en imatges d’escena reals és un problema obert i una àrea de cerca molt activa la visió per computador. S’han proposat un gran nombre de mètodes basats en l’extensió dels mètodes des de l’anàlisi ...
A computational re-assessment of sexual dimorphism in the human cranium beyond traditional morphometrics: geometric morphometric methods and neural network analysis
L'objectiu principal d'aquesta tesi de doctorat és avançar en l'estudi i la comprensió del dimorfisme sexual en els cranis humans moderns. Per aconseguir aquests objectius, primerament explorem quines són les característiques ...
A computational study of intervertebral disc degeneration in relation to changes in regional tissue composition and disc nutrition
Up to 85% of the world population suffers from low back pain, a clinical condition often related to the intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (DD). Altered disc cell nutrition affects cell viability and can generate ...
A Computational toolkit to boost precision oncology with pharmacogenomics
Durant la darrera dècada la seqüenciació massiva de pacients de cancer ha permés avançar de forma significativa el coneixement sobre les bases moleculars del càncer. Un cop assolit aquest primer pass, el repte que tenim ...
