The rise and the fall of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa endemic lineage in a hospital
2021
The biological features that allow a pathogen to survive in the hospital environment are mostly unknown. The extinction of bacterial epidemics in hospitals is mostly attributed to changes in medical practice, including infection control, but the role of bacterial adaptation has never been documented. We analysed a collection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates belonging to the Besançon Epidemic Strain (BES), responsible for a 12year nosocomial outbreak, using a genotype-to-phenotype approach. Bayesian analysis estimated the emergence of the clone in the hospital 5 years before its opening, during the creation of its water distribution network made of copper. BES survived better than the refe…

Optical multichannel sensing of skin blood pulsations
2004
Time resolved detection and analysis of the skin back-scattered optical signals (reflection photoplethysmography or PPG) provide information on skin blood volume pulsations and can serve for cardiovascular assessment. The multi-channel PPG concept has been developed and clinically verified in this study. Portable two- and four-channel PPG monitoring devices have been designed for real-time data acquisition and processing. The multi-channel devices were successfully applied for cardiovascular fitness tests and for early detection of arterial occlusions in extremities. The optically measured heartbeat pulse wave propagation made possible to estimate relative arterial resistances for numerous …

Matemātiska rakstura pētījumu dokumentēšana
2015
Pārdomāta un atbilstoša projektu dokumentēšana ir nepieciešama, lai nodrošinātu sekmīgu rezultāta sasniegšanu. Starp biznesa projektiem un matemātiska rakstura pētījumiem pastāv būtiskas atšķirības, tāpēc šī darba mērķis ir izstrādāt parauga piemēru matemātiska rakstura pētījumu dokumentēšanai. Maģistra darbā tika veikta analīze un salīdzināšana jau esošiem risinājumiem, kas varētu tikt izmantoti kā atbalsta sistēma matemātiska rakstura pētījumu dokumentēšanai. Rezultātā tika izstrādāta atbalsta sistēma balstoties uz autora piedāvātajiem saturiskajiem un tehniskajiem aspektiem. Atslēgas vārdi: matemātisks pētījums, dokumentācija, atbalsta sistēma, pētniecība.
Konkrētā sintaksē balstītas meklēšanas-aizvietošanas veiktspējas analīze
2022
Bakalaura darba “Konkrētā sintaksē balstītas meklēšanas-aizvietošanas veiktspējas analīze” ietvaros tika izpētītas esošās šablona atbilstības pārbaudes metodes un to saistību ar modeļu transformācijām, meklēšanas funkcionalitātes nozīme, meklēšanas veidi grafisko DSL rīkos un kādā veidā to veic konkrētā sintaksē balstīta meklēšana. Tika izpētītas un aprakstītas konkrētā sintaksē balstītas meklēšanas-aizvietošanas iespējas un tajā esošo šablona atbilstības pārbaudes risinājuma svarīgākie aspekti. Tika izstrādāts un aprakstīts piedāvātais risinājums šablona atbilstības pārbaudei ajoo platformas ietvaros. Tika veikta izstrādātā risinājuma un konkrētā sintaksē balstītas meklēšanas šablona atbil…
Team Description Mainz Rolling Brains 2001
2002
The Mainz Rolling Brains 2001 team is based on our last year’s team. Our modular design as described in [1] has proved to be efficient and flexible. Thus the team could easily be adopted to the soccerserver’s new features and some of the weak spots of our team could be eliminated.
A Conversational Agent to Support Decisions in SimCity like Games
2009
Computational intelligent techniques applied to economics have played an important role in the last years. In this paper we propose a framework based on an intelligent conversational agent embedded with a decision support system, aimed at suggesting the best managing strategies for a game-based model of a virtual town. The agent tries to prospect the future evolutions of particular choices taken by the user. Interaction is conducted through a natural language interface built as an Alice-based conversational agent.
