Classification of Targets Using Statistical Features from Range FFT of mmWave FMCW Radars
2021
Radars with mmWave frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) technology accurately estimate the range and velocity of targets in their field of view (FoV). The targeted angle of arrival (AoA) estimation can be improved by increasing receiving antennas or by using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). However, obtaining target features such as target type remains challenging. In this paper, we present a novel target classification method based on machine learning and features extracted from a range fast Fourier transform (FFT) profile by using mmWave FMCW radars operating in the frequency range of 77–81 GHz. The measurements are carried out in a variety of realistic situations, including p…
Effects of Personal Traits on Generation Y Consumers' Attitudes Toward the Use of Mobile Devices for Communication and Commerce
2012
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of young adult consumers’ personal traits (high-tech involvement, experiment proclivity, and fashion/brand leadership) on their perceptions of and attitudes toward using mobile devices for communications and commerce. The integrated stimulus-organism-responses paradigm (Fiore & Kim, 2007) served as the overarching framework, combining the uses and gratifications theory (Blumler & Katz, 1974) and the extended technology acceptance model (Kim, Ma, & Park, 2009). A convenience sample of 504 college students in 2 U. S. universities provided usable responses to our survey. Causal modeling analysis results showed that personal trait varia…
El monumento como instrumento de identidad nacional. El caso italiano
2018
Between 1860 and 1950 Italian architecture had the task of building the modern image of a young nation. Politics asked to architects to convey, through their work, identity messages to the collectivity. This process was particularly present during the period of fascism (1922- 1943), at the disposal of the government of Benito Mussolini. Through strong messages deeply rooted to the ancient Roman tradition, fascism sought to restore a national identity that would guarantee the duration of the regime. The fundamental elements on which constituted this identity were the memorial monuments, places where the mass of the people feels the need to recognize each other to express the cult of the home…
Estudio experimental comparado de marcadores bioquímicos en la infección por Fasciola hepatica y F. gigantica
2017
Fascioliasis is caused by the genetically and phenotypically very close Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica. The latter, always considered secondary in human infection, appears nowadays increasingly involved in human endemic areas of Africa and Asia. Unfortunately, little is known about the pathogenicity of this liver fluke species, mainly due to difficulties assessing the moment of a patient's infection in the anamnesis and in the differential diagnosis with F. hepatica. This is the first experimental study comparing F. hepatica and F. gigantica in a long-term study of up to 24 weeks with genotypically and phenotypically standardised fluke strains in the same animal model host, the Guirra s…
Caracterización Fenética y Genética de Individuos del Género Fasciola Linnaeus, 1758 (Trematoda: Fasciolidae) de México
2017
La fascioliasis es una importante enfermedad causada por dos especies de trematodos, Fasciola hepatica y Fasciola gigantica, que incluye un amplio espectro de especies hospedadoras definitivas tanto domésticas como silvestres. En el presente trabajo, como primer paso, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica exhaustiva de todos los casos humanos de fascioliasis en México, reportados tanto en la literatura mexicana, como casos de pacientes mexicanos diagnosticados en Canadá y USA. El estudio fenético y genético se realizó con adultos del parásito, obtenidos de bovinos del matadero de la Ciudad de Toluca, Estado de México, México, zona de endemia humana. Para el estudio fenético comparativo se u…

Warunki dobrego postu według wybranych pisarzy greckich IV-VI w
2020
Praktykowanie postu wśród wyznawców Jezusa Chrystusa należało do istotnych czynności ascetycznych już od pierwszych pokoleń chrześcijaństwa, ponieważ to zalecenie pojawiło się w nauczaniu Zbawiciela. Dlatego pasterze tamtych czasów na różne sposoby zachęcali członków swoich wspólnot do podjęcia okresowego postu, niezależnie od ich zróżnicowanego podejścia do jego przestrzegania. O obecności zagadnienia postu w życiu kościelnym tych wspólnot świadczą teksty homilii, mów i traktatów, w których zamieszczone są zachęty kierowane do wiernych opisujące sposoby przestrzegania zasad postu oraz jego uzdrawiające wartości. Do autorów, którzy zajmowali się tymi kwestiami, należeli m.in. Asteriusz z Am…
Triceps surae fascicle stretch is poorly correlated with short latency stretch reflex size
2015
Introduction: The short latency stretch reflex (SLR) is well described, but the stimulus that evokes the SLR remains elusive. One hypothesis states that reflex size is proportional to muscle fiber stretch, so this study examined the relationship between these 2 parameters in human triceps surae muscles. Methods: Achilles tendon taps and dorsiflexion stretches with different amplitudes and preactivation torques were applied to 6 participants while electromyography and muscle fascicle length changes were recorded in soleus and medial gastrocnemius (MG). Results: In response to tendon taps, neither fascicle length nor velocity changes were correlated with SLR size in either muscle, but acceler…
Reduction and variability of trunk spines in the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum: the role of physical constraints on attachment
2005
. In this study, we investigated a functional trade-off between trunk attachment and trunk-spine development in the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum. The worms live attached to the stomach and upper intestine of their cetacean definitive hosts, using the proboscis and spiny foretrunk as the main holdfast; the spiny hindtrunk can also attach by bending ventrally. When the hindtrunk bends, ventral compression generates an anterior fold (AF) and a posterior fold (PF). A morphological analysis based on 7,823 individuals collected from 10 franciscana dolphins, Pontoporia blainvillei, revealed that spines were smaller and more variable in size and occurrence in the folds than on neighboring ar…
