Contenidos digitales y profesores universitarios: un estudio de caso sobre usos y prácticas docentes en campus virtuales
2014
El propósito de este trabajo es conocer las prácticas promovidas por los docentes universitarios de magisterio gracias al uso de contenidos digitales en campus virtuales. En esta comunicación se exponen los resultados preliminares de la investigación. La singularidad de este estudio viene marcada por la muestra, un estudio de casos, ya que se trata de cinco docentes que desarrollan su actividad profesional en universidades presenciales y online. Los primeros resultados verifican las diferencias que existen entre las universidades presenciales y online, entre otras: en el uso de la plataforma que hacen los profesores, la existencia o no de prácticas mediadas tecnológicamente, el uso y usos d…
Physicians' Perceptions of Clinical Utility of a Digital Health Tool for Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome Monitoring in Real-Life Hematology Pract…
2022
Digital health tools are increasingly being used in cancer care and may include electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) monitoring systems. We examined physicians’ perceptions of usability and clinical utility of a digital health tool (GIMEMA-ALLIANCE platform) for ePRO monitoring in the real-life practice of patients with hematologic malignancies. This tool allows for the collection and assessment of ePROs with real-time graphical presentation of results to medical staff. Based on a predefined algorithm, automated alerts are sent to medical staff. Participating hematologists completed an online survey on their experience with the platform. Of the 201 patients invited to participate betw…
SuperHistopath: A Deep Learning Pipeline for Mapping Tumor Heterogeneity on Low-Resolution Whole-Slide Digital Histopathology Images.
2021
High computational cost associated with digital pathology image analysis approaches is a challenge towards their translation in routine pathology clinic. Here, we propose a computationally efficient framework (SuperHistopath), designed to map global context features reflecting the rich tumor morphological heterogeneity. SuperHistopath efficiently combines i) a segmentation approach using the linear iterative clustering (SLIC) superpixels algorithm applied directly on the whole-slide images at low resolution (5x magnification) to adhere to region boundaries and form homogeneous spatial units at tissue-level, followed by ii) classification of superpixels using a convolution neural network (CN…
Hyperspectral UAV-Imagery and photogrammetric canopy height model in estimating forest stand variables
2017
Remote sensing using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) -borne sensors is currently a highly interesting approach for the estimation of forest characteristics. 3D remote sensing data from airborne laser scanning or digital stereo photogrammetry enable highly accurate estimation of forest variables related to the volume of growing stock and dimension of the trees, whereas recognition of tree species dominance and proportion of different tree species has been a major complication in remote sensing-based estimation of stand variables. In this study the use of UAV-borne hyperspectral imagery was examined in combination with a high-resolution photogrammetric canopy height model in estimating forest v…
ANALISI E SVILUPPO DI UN SETUP SPERIMENTALE PER LA DETERMINAZIONE DELLA TENACITÀ A FRATTURA A MODO II NEI MATERIALI COMPOSITI E IBRIDI
Il presente lavoro di Tesi si propone a compimento del percorso previsto dal Ciclo XXVI del corso di Dottorato di Ricerca in Ingegneria Civile e Ambientale – Indirizzo Materiali – seguito durante il triennio Gennaio 2013- Dicembre 2015 presso l’Università degli Studi di Palermo. L’elaborato si sviluppa in due principali sezioni. Dopo un’introduzione all’argomento affrontato, nella prima parte del lavoro, viene analizzato, sia sperimentalmente che numericamente, un setup tipicamente utilizzato nell’industria aeronautica per la caratterizzazione delle delaminazione a MODO II nei materiali compositi (Transverse Crack Tensile test – TCT-test). A partire dai risultati ottenuti dalle analisi prel…
Design of an efficient digital down-converter for a SDR-based DVB-S receiver
2007
This paper presents the design of an area-power efficient digital down-converter suitable for broadband communication systems. The DVB-S standard has been used as a design example. It has been shown that by selecting a bandpass sampling to generate only one spectral image, the case in which the relationship between the digital carrier frequency and the sampling frequency is 1/4, not only gives the smallest area but the lowest power consumption.
Consumer attitude toward using smart shopping carts: a comparative analysis of Italian and Croatian consumer attitudes
2016
This paper aims to explore consumer attitudes toward using smart shopping cart, considering country of origin, gender, age, and intentions to use smart shopping carts while purchasing. Moreover, it investigates the influence of extracted factors on consumers' attitudes toward using smart shopping carts and the users' levels of digital competence. The data was collected through survey questionnaires using a purposive sample of 313 Croatian and Italian respondents. To this end, we applied statistical methodologies such as binary logistic regression, factor analysis, and analysis of variance. We found that, compared with Croatians, Italian respondents have a more positive attitude toward using…

Factors Influencing Digitalis Obscura Mesophyll Protoplast Development
1988
In a previous work (1), we found that a combination of liquid-over-agar-solidified MS (2) modified medium was superior to either all liquid or all solid medium for culture of Digitalis obscura L. mesophyll protoplasts. In order to achieve optimum culture conditions we now report on the influence of a different gelling agent (agarose) as well as the effect of several nutrient media on D. obscura mesophyll protoplasts development.
