Deep learning approach for prediction of impact peak appearance at ground reaction force signal of running activity
2020
Protruding impact peak is one of the features of vertical ground reaction force (GRF) that is related to injury risk while running. The present research is dedicated to predicting GRF impact peak appearance by setting a binary classification problem. Kinematic data, namely a number of raw signals in the sagittal plane, collected by the Vicon motion capture system (Oxford Metrics Group, UK) were employed as predictors. Therefore, the input data for the predictive model are presented as a multi-channel time series. Deep learning techniques, namely five convolutional neural network (CNN) models were applied to the binary classification analysis, based on a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) classifi…
Comparison of lower limb segments kinematics in taekwondo kick. an approach to the proximal to distal motion
2015
Abstract In taekwondo, there is a lack of consensus about how the kick sequence occurs. The aim of this study was to analyse the peak velocity (resultant and value in each plane) of lower limb segments (thigh, shank and foot), and the time to reach this peak velocity in the kicking lower limb during the execution of the roundhouse kick technique. Ten experienced taekwondo athletes (five males and five females; mean age of 25.3 ±5.1 years; mean experience of 12.9 ±5.3 years) participated voluntarily in this study performing consecutive kicking trials to a target located at their sternum height. Measurements for the kinematic analysis were performed using two 3D force plates and an eight came…
3D high definition video coding on a GPU-based heterogeneous system
2013
H.264/MVC is a standard for supporting the sensation of 3D, based on coding from 2 (stereo) to N views. H.264/MVC adopts many coding options inherited from single view H.264/AVC, and thus its complexity is even higher, mainly because the number of processing views is higher. In this manuscript, we aim at an efficient parallelization of the most computationally intensive video encoding module for stereo sequences. In particular, inter prediction and its collaborative execution on a heterogeneous platform. The proposal is based on an efficient dynamic load balancing algorithm and on breaking encoding dependencies. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed algorithm's ability to reduce the…
Il lavoro etero-organizzato prima e dopo il caso Foodora Italia.
2019
l contributo ripropone la discussione sull’esegesi della fattispecie disciplinata dall’art. 1 comma 2 del d. lgs. n. 81 del 2015 (nel testo anteriore alla riforma del 2019) trattata dall’autore nei Colloqui Giuridici sul Lavoro del 2015 (a cura) di Antonio Vallebona per il Massimario di Giurisprudenza del Lavoro. Lo studio rigettava la tesi che il lavoro organizzato dal committente fosse la terza fattispecie e anzi con riferimento delle condizioni di applicazione dimostrava la necessità di una lettura includente. La conclusione era che la nuova disciplina aveva natura antifraudolenta e determinava un allargamento (relativo) dell’area della subordinazione conseguente alla riduzione del cam…
Interneta iepazīšanās platformas: motivācija un lietošanas paradumi
2022
Bakalaura darbs “Interneta iepazīšanās platformas: motivācija un lietošanas paradumi” pēta lietotāju paradumus, izmantojot iepazīšanās portālus, platformas. Potenciālie portālu lietotāji mūsdienās atturas no iepazīšanās portālu lietošanas, par iemeslu minot, ka gan motivācija tos izmantot zūd, jo ļoti maza daļa sabiedrības negūst rezultātus, kā arī ne visi izmanto iepazīšanās portālu pilno potenciālu un izmantošanas iespējas. Darba mērķis: Iegūt padziļinātu priekštatu par iepazīšanās portāliem, to darbības principiem, kā arī izpētīt, kā tās palīdz vai otrādi – traucē kvalitatīvi un droši cilvēkiem iepazīties vai komunicēt internetā. To sākotnējais mērķis ir iepazīstināt cilvēkus, radīt vidi…

Acidification processes in a peritidal carbonate succession across the Triassic/Jurassic boundary (Sicily)
2017
For the first time, a correlation between biostratigraphic events and δ13C curve was attempted along an UpperTriassic-Lower Jurassic peritidal limestone succession cropping out in westernmost Sicily. The peritidal carbonates are organized in shallowing upward cycles characterized by subtidal skeletal mudstone to grainstone, intertidal microbial mats and supratidal paleosoils. About 300 meters of this succession covering the Triassic-Jurassic interval were studied in details. On the base of the macro- and microfossil assemblages from the subtidal facies, four informal units have been recognized along the studied section. Unit R1 (at the base, 111 m thick) is dominated by large megalodonts, r…
Triassic/Jurassic boundary in peritidal carbonates from western Tethys
2016
A carbonate platform from the western margin of the Ionian Tethys has been investigated for biotic and geochemical variations across the Triassic/Jurassic boundary (TJB). The section of Mount Sparagio (north-western Sicily) exposes a peritidal succession of Rhaetian-Hettangian age with a thickness of about 400 m. The peritidal sediments are organized in metre-scale shallowing upward cycles formed by subtidal, intertidal and supratidal facies. Along the section, the subtidal facies vary from bioturbated mud/wackestones with rare mollusc shells, to Megalodont-rich wacke/packstones to, more rarely, coral bafflestones, most likely as response to variations of the accommodation space and water e…
On the conversation between female videobloggers and commentators
2021
El desarrollo de YouTube como una plataforma social surge a partir de dos ideas. En primer lugar, los amateurs pueden producir contenido de cualquier índole. Y, en segundo lugar, su audiencia puede expresar su opinión sin restricciones. Este intercambio de información impulsa la formación de comunidades en torno a un interés común: contenido y/o videobloguero. La dimensión social en YouTube tiene lugar de manera bidireccional. La interacción regular entre las dos partes ha significado un cambio crucial en la percepción de la producción y consumo audiovisual, así como también en los productores de vídeo, amateurs y audiencia. Las investigaciones iniciales se han dirigido a examinar los comen…
A facies distribution model controlled by a tectonically inherited sea bottom topography in the carbonate rimmed shelf of the Upper Tithonian–Valangi…
2016
The Upper Tithonian–Valanginian shallow-water carbonates outcropping in the Palermo Mts (NW Sicily) consist of several facies associations reflecting different depositional environments of a carbonate rimmed shelf, pertaining to the Southern Tethyan continental margin. The reconstructed depositional model, based on the sedimentological features, cyclic facies arrangement and biota distribution, shows that a wide protected lagoon, dominated by algae, molluscs and scattered patch reefs, was bordered landward by a tidal flat, where stromatolitic algal mats were cyclically subaerial exposed, and seaward by a marine sand belt and reef complex. Oolitic packstone-grainstone lithofacies, cyclically…
