IMFLer: A Web Application for Interactive Metabolic Flux Analysis and Visualization.
2021
Increasing genome-wide data in biological sciences and medicine has contributed to the development of a variety of visualization tools. Several automatic, semiautomatic, and manual visualization tools have already been developed. Some even have integrated flux balance analysis (FBA), but in most cases, it depends on separately installed third party software that is proprietary and does not allow customization of its functionality and has many restrictions for easy data distribution and analysis. In this study, we present an interactive metabolic flux analyzer and visualizer (IMFLer)-a static single-page web application that enables the reading and management of metabolic model layout maps, …
Human computer interactive future framework: automation of human interaction and interfaces
2020
Contemporary era technological improvements and social living urges the advancement of technological implementations and to create an environment for automation of interaction platform. The sole aim being the reduction of labour work or human effort and optimising the throughput gained. The future generation is expecting such developments in current systems, but none can elucidate the particular area of improvements to be done for future models. In order to cater such requirements, a HCI future framework for automating the interaction and interfaces is proposed. The framework is divided into ten co-frames of interfaces with further classifications for facilitating the understanding of indiv…
A Combination of Celecoxib and Glucosamine Sulfate Has Anti-Inflammatory and Chondroprotective Effects: Results from an In Vitro Study on Human Osteo…
2021
This study investigated the possible anti-inflammatory and chondroprotective effects of a combination of celecoxib and prescription-grade glucosamine sulfate (GS) in human osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes and their possible mechanism of action. Chondrocytes were treated with celecoxib (1.85 µM) and GS (9 µM), alone or in combination with IL-1β (10 ng/mL) and a specific nuclear factor (NF)-κB inhibitor (BAY-11-7082, 1 µM). Gene expression and release of some pro-inflammatory mediators, metalloproteinases (MMPs), and type II collagen (Col2a1) were evaluated by qRT-PCR and ELISA
Choosing Open Innovation Intermediaries through their web-based platforms
2016
This paper examines the services provided by Open Innovation Intermediaries (OIIs) through their web-based platforms, in order to understand how OIIs can effectively support innovation seekers in their innovation processes. Relying on the existing literature exploring the roles and functions of web-based OII platforms, we carried out an exploratory and comparative qualitative study to identify the services available, to classify them by the various phases of the innovation processes in which they can be beneficial, and to link them to general roles and functions. Our analysis of the services provided by OII platforms sheds light on the dynamics of innovation seekers’ choices, and gives mean…
Internal Test Sets Studies in a Group of Antimalarials
2006
Topological indices have been applied to build QSAR models for a set of 20 an- timalarial cyclic peroxy cetals. In order to evalua te the reliability of the proposed linear models leave-n-out and Internal Test Sets (ITS) approaches have b een considered. The pro- posed procedure resulted in a robust and consensued prediction equation and here it is shown why it is superior to the employed standard c ross-validation algorithms involving multilinear regression models.
A global model for the estimation of transport costs
2019
This paper presents a model of transport cost determinants that corrects the specification problems observed in the transport cost equations in previous literature. The model includes freight transport supply and demand, as well as infrastructure quality and non-time-varying fixed effects related to the route, the exporting company, its strategy and the product. In addition, when defining the origin-destination routes, the model more appropriately accounts for economies of network and economies of scale. In order to build the database, 583 personal interviews were conducted over the course of 2011 with producing companies that ship goods and with the logistics operators. As a result, 305 ro…

Mental health service users' and professionals' relationship with games and gaming
2017
Background Games and elements of gamification can be utilized in mental healthcare to provide customized interventions for the service users. However, very little evidence exists as to what kind of experiences service users and professionals have towards games and gaming, and what their perceptions of the phenomenon are. This sort of information is needed to help professionals put game-based interventions actively into practice in mental health services. Research objectives The objective is to describe the experiences and perceptions of digital games and gaming from the perspectives of mental health service users and mental health professionals. Methods In this qualitative study, data consi…
Exploring the Gender Digital Divide in E-Government Use in a Developing Country
2020
This article explores the gender digital divide in e-government use in Turkey. Historical trends and differences in internet and e-government use by males and females are investigated. The findings of this study indicate that although internet use has increased over the years, there remains a steady and significant gap between males and females in terms of internet use and e-government services use. It appears that females in Turkey tend to be on the wrong side of the digital divide, and a significant number of females do not benefit from the potential advantages of the internet and e-government services. The gender digital gap in e-government use is higher than in internet use.
AI-IoT Platform for Blind Estimation of Room Acoustic Parameters Based on Deep Neural Networks
2023
Room acoustical parameters have been widely used to describe sound perception in indoor environments, such as concert halls, conference rooms, etc. Many of them have been standardized and often have a high computational demand. With the increasing presence of deep learning approaches in automatic monitoring systems, wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs) offer great potential to facilitate the estimation of such parameters. In this scenario, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) offer significant reductions in the computational requirements for in-node parameter predictions, enabling the so-called Artificial Intelligence-Internet of Things (AI-IoT). In this paper, we describe the design a…
