Variable Neighborhood Search for the Vertex Separation Problem
2012
The vertex separation problem belongs to a family of optimization problems in which the objective is to nd the best separator of vertices or edges in a generic graph. This optimization problem is strongly related to other well-known graph problems; such as the Path-Width, the Node Search Number or the Interval Thickness, among others. All of these optimization problems are NP-hard and have practical applications in VLSI, computer language compiler design or graph drawing. Up to know, they have been generally tackled with exact approaches, presenting polynomial-time algorithms to obtain the optimal solution for speci c types of graphs. However, in spite of their practical applications, these…
K2MIII2(MVIO4)(PO4)2 (MIII = Fe, Sc; MVI = Mo, W), Novel Members of the Lagbeinite-Related Family: Synthesis, Structure, and Magnetic Properties
2012
The possibility of PO(4)(3-) for MoO(4)(2-) partial substitution in the langbeinite framework has been studied by exploration of the K-Fe(Sc)-Mo(W)-P-O systems using the high-temperature solution method. It was shown that 1/3PO(4)(3-) for MoO(4)(2-) substitution leads to formation of three novel compounds K(2)Fe(MoO(4))(PO(4))(2), K(2)Sc(MoO(4))(PO(4))(2), and K(2)Sc(WO(4))(PO(4))(2) with slightly increased lattice parameters and significant distortion of the anion tetrahedra without structure changes. In contrast, the antiferromagnetic structure is modified by substitution in the low-temperature region. The structural peculiarities are discussed in light of bond-valence sums calculations.

Full parallax three-dimensional display from Kinect v1 and v2
2016
We exploit the two different versions of Kinect, v1 and v2, for the calculation of microimages projected onto integral-imaging displays. Our approach is based on composing a three-dimensional (3-D) point cloud from a captured depth map and RGB information. These fused 3-D maps permit to generate an integral image after projecting the information through a virtual pinhole array. In our analysis, we take into account that each of the Kinect devices has its own inherent capacities and individualities. We illustrate our analysis with some imaging experiments, provide the distinctive differences between the two Kinect devices, and finally conclude that Kinect v2 allows the display of 3-D images …
Demo abstract: Cross-technology TDMA synchronization using energy pattern beacons
2017
When different technologies use the same frequency bands in close proximity, the resulting interference typically results in performance degradation. Coexistence methods exist, but these are often technology specific and require technology specific interference detection methods. To remove the root cause of the performance degradation, devices should be able to negotiate medium access even when using different technologies. To this end, an architecture that allows cross-technology medium access by means of a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) scheme was devised. In order to achieve cross-technology synchronization, which is required for the TDMA solution, an energy pattern beacon is trans…
Real-Time Temporal Superpixels for Unsupervised Remote Photoplethysmography
2018
International audience; Segmentation is a critical step for many computer vision applications. Among them, the remote photoplethys-mography technique is significantly impacted by the quality of region of interest segmentation. With the heart-rate estimation accuracy, the processing time is obviously a key issue for real-time monitoring. Recent face detection algorithms can perform real-time processing, however for unsupervised algorithms, i.e. without any subject detection based on supervised learning, existing methods are not able to achieve real-time on regular platform. In this paper, we propose a new method to perform real-time un-supervised remote photoplethysmograhy based on efficient…
Learning cultural literacy through creative practices in schools cultural and multimodal approaches to meaning-making
2022
Introduction: Cultural Literacy and Creativity -- A Sociocultural Approach to Children’s Visual Creations -- Multimodality: Art as a Meaning-Making Process -- Tolerance, Empathy, and Inclusion -- Living Together -- Social Responsibility -- Belonging and Home -- Cultural Literacy During COVID-19 -- Conclusions: Cultural Literacy in Action -- Index. This open access book discusses how cultural literacy can be taught and learned through creative practices. It approaches cultural literacy as a dialogic social process based on learning and gaining knowledge through emphatic, tolerant, and inclusive interaction. The book focuses on meaning-making in children and young people’s visual and multimod…
LGBT+ kopienas jauniešu, kā komunikatoru analīze, komunicējot ar sabiedrību virtuālajā vidē
2021
Bakalaura darba tēma ir “LGBT+ kopienas jauniešu, kā komunikatoru analīze, komunicējot ar sabiedrību virtuālajā vidē”. Bakalaura darba mērķis ir izprast ar kādiem šķēršļiem un problēmām saskaras LGBT+ kopienas jaunieši vecumā no 16 līdz 25 gadiem, komunicējot virtuālajā vidē. Teorētiskajā daļā ir aplūkota kvīru (queer) teorija, LGBT+ kopienas attīstība Latvijā un citviet pasaulē, komunikācija virtuālajā vidē mūsdienu pasaulē. Pētījumā ir izmantotas daļēji strukturētas intervijas un anketēšana. Pētījumā noskaidrots, ka LGBT+ kopienas jaunieši vecumā no 16 līdz 25 gadiem, virtuālo vidi uztver kā drošāku vidi kopienas pārstāvjiem, kur izpausties un justies brīvāk, nekā reālajā dzīvē. Pētījumā …
European traditional tomatoes galore: a result of farmers' selection of a few diversity-rich loci
2022
A comprehensive collection of 1254 tomato accessions, corresponding to European traditional and modern varieties, early domesticated varieties, and wild relatives, was analyzed by genotyping by sequencing. A continuous genetic gradient between the traditional and modern varieties was observed. European traditional tomatoes displayed very low genetic diversity, with only 298 polymorphic loci (95% threshold) out of 64 943 total variants. European traditional tomatoes could be classified into several genetic groups. Two main clusters consisting of Spanish and Italian accessions showed higher genetic diversity than the remaining varieties, suggesting that these regions might be independent seco…
