Application of near Infrared Spectroscopy to the Quality Control of Citrus Fruits and Mango
2016
NIR spectroscopy is a proved tool to measure the optical properties of the samples, which are related to their chemical and textural properties. This technology can be used for determining the internal and external quality of fruits. Accordingly, many studies have been reported for long time to assess the quality of different fresh fruits by using reflectance measurements acquired with visible-NIR spectroscopy. We have been working on the estimation of the quality of fruits using computer vision for more than twenty years, always focused on problems that affect the local industry. As the region of Valencia (Spain) is one of the main producers and exporters of citrus fruits worldwide, most o…
An fMRI Study to Analyze Neural Correlates of Presence during Virtual Reality Experiences
2013
[EN] In the field of virtual reality (VR), many efforts have been made to analyze presence, the sense of being in the virtual world. However, it is only recently that functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been used to study presence during an automatic navigation through a virtual environment. In the present work, our aim was to use fMRI to study the sense of presence during a VR-free navigation task, in comparison with visualization of photographs and videos (automatic navigations through the same environment). The main goal was to analyze the usefulness of fMRI for this purpose, evaluating whether, in this context, the interaction between the subject and the environment is perf…

Lettura comparativa con un disegno di Baldassare Peruzzi, noto nell'ambiente dei PP. Gesuiti.
La chiesa di Nostra Signora di Lourdes a Zagabria di Jože Plečnik. Analisi grafica
2019
Jože Plečnik (Ljubljana, 23rd January 1872 - Ljubljana, 7th January 1957) was, without any doubt, Otto Wagner's most brilliant pupil. During his tireless activity as an architect, he manages to touch a variety of absolutely heterogeneous themes, masterfully reworking the consolidated syntax of traditional architecture. In this survey we consider a relevant – although little investigated – aspect of the architect's work, that is the one linked to the typological innovations brought about by his work. In the case under examination – the work never done by the church of Our Lady of Lourdes in Zagreb – this innovation consists of the unusual arrangement of the four rows of columns that separate…
Altered cerebral blood flow velocity features in fibromyalgia patients in resting-state conditions
2017
[EN] The aim of this study is to characterize in resting-state conditions the cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) signals of fibromyalgia patients. The anterior and middle cerebral arteries of both hemispheres from 15 women with fibromyalgia and 15 healthy women were monitored using Transcranial Doppler (TCD) during a 5-minute eyes-closed resting period. Several signal processing methods based on time, information theory, frequency and time-frequency analyses were used in order to extract different features to characterize the CBFV signals in the different vessels. Main results indicated that, in comparison with control subjects, fibromyalgia patients showed a higher complexity of the envel…
Soluntina forma urbis. Analisi grafiche e schemi
2015
L’autrice propone un’interpretazione grafica del sito archeologico di Solunto attraverso una lettura digitale per layer concettuali, con l’obiettivo di individuare gli elementi urbani caratterizzanti il sito e definire un ulteriore disegno della città storica. Identificare gli elementi morfologici e tipologici che definiscono la struttura urbana del sito permette di riconoscere una sovrapposizione di sistemi grafici: quello della città sedimentata, costituito dai resti archeologici, quindi dalla materia della città ancora visibile e quello della città virtuale, all’interno del quale percorsi, punti di sosta e di aggregazione diventano elementi nodali per definire la configurazione digitale …
User-Centered Virtual Reality for Promoting Relaxation: An Innovative Approach
2019
[EN] Virtual reality has been used effectively to promote relaxation and reduce stress. It is possible to find two main approaches to achieve such aims across the literature. The first one is focused on genetic environments filled with relaxing "narratives" to induce control over one's own body and physiological response, while the second one engages the user in virtual reality-mediated activities to empower his/her own abilities to regulate emotion. The scope of the present contribution is to extend the discourse on VR use to promote relaxation, by proposing a third approach. This would be based on VR with personalized content, based on user research to identify important life events. As a…
Mieczysław Szczuka. Interpretazioni grafiche
2016
Questo studio riguarda l’analisi di un progetto di Mieczysław Szczuka, figura di spicco dell’avanguardia polacca. Come molti dei costruttivisti polacchi, Szczuka concepiva il suo lavoro non soltanto come mezzo di visualizzazione della traccia grafica, ma anche come ulteriore possibilità per affrontare la questione dell’esperienza visiva dal punto di vista teorico-compositivo.il progetto oggetto di studio è stato pubblicato per la prima volta nella rivista “Blok”, nel 1925 e costituisce una sorta di manifesto dell’architettura polacca moderna che definisce la configurazione della nuova cultura olistica, quale fulcro di propagazione e di fusione tra architettura, arte e musica. Il ri-disegno …
