Tapology: A Game-Based Platform to Facilitate E-Health and E-Inclusion
2014
Published version of a chapter in the book: Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Aging and Assistive Environments. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-07446-7_36 We have developed a tablet computer game app for low vision users that can be used to introduce a platform for gaming, internet and visual rehabilitation to older users who have not had prior experience with information communication technology (ICT). Our target user group is people diagnosed with Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). The primary goal of the app is to present a fun and engaging means for participants to engage with Information Communication Technology (ICT). A long…
Digitālo rīku efektivitāte personīgo finanšu pārvaldīšanā
2018
Bakalaura darbā “Digitālo rīku efektivitāte personīgo finanšu pārvaldīšanā” pētīta digitālo rīku izmantošanas efektivitāte personīgo finanšu pārvaldīšanā un studentu finanšpratības līmenis. Pētījuma mērķis ir noteikt, vai digitālie rīki var kalpot par efektīvu instrumentu, ar kuru palīdzību iespējams īstenot personīgo finanšu pārvaldīšanas procesu. Lai sasniegtu izvirzīto mērķi, bakalaura darbā izmantotas kvantitatīvas un kvalitatīvas pētniecības metodes – anketēšana, daļēji strukturētā intervija, dienasgrāmatas metode un kvalitatīvā kontentanalīze. Iegūtie dati analizēti un interpretēti, balstoties uz pragmatisma metateoriju un teorētisko modeli ELIS. Rezultāti parāda, ka digitālie rīki sn…

Web-sovellus ohjelmoijien motivaation ja motivaatio-ongelmien kartoittamiseen ja korjaamiseen
2017
Tämä tutkielma pyrkii antamaan vastauksen siihen, kuinka voidaan toteuttaa www-sovellus, jolla voidaan mitata ja analysoida ohjelmoijien motivaatiota organisaatiossa ja kuinka voidaan laatia motivaatiosuunnitelma heikkojen motivaatioalueiden korjaamiseksi. Työn teoriaosuudessa käsitellään ensin taustateoriaa työtyytyväisyydestä ja motivaatiosta ja käydään läpi eräitä tärkeitä motivaatiomalleja. Tämän jälkeen valitaan kaksi motivaatiomallia, joille laaditaan toiminnalliset määrittelyt, joilla ne on mahdollista muuntaa mitattavaan ja laskettavaan muotoon. Teoriaosuudessa esitetään myös, kuinka motivaatiosuunnitelma tehdään ja kuinka voidaan laatia motivaatiota korjaavia toimenpiteitä. Teoriao…
An Emulator Toolbox to Approximate Radiative Transfer Models with Statistical Learning
2015
Physically-based radiative transfer models (RTMs) help in understanding the processes occurring on the Earth’s surface and their interactions with vegetation and atmosphere. When it comes to studying vegetation properties, RTMs allows us to study light interception by plant canopies and are used in the retrieval of biophysical variables through model inversion. However, advanced RTMs can take a long computational time, which makes them unfeasible in many real applications. To overcome this problem, it has been proposed to substitute RTMs through so-called emulators. Emulators are statistical models that approximate the functioning of RTMs. Emulators are advantageous in real practice because…
A visualization technique for accessing solution pool in interactive methods of multiobjective optimization
2015
<pre>Interactive methods of <span>multiobjective</span> optimization repetitively derive <span>Pareto</span> optimal solutions based on decision maker's preference information and present the obtained solutions for his/her consideration. Some interactive methods save the obtained solutions into a solution pool and, at each iteration, allow the decision maker considering any of solutions obtained earlier. This feature contributes to the flexibility of exploring the <span>Pareto</span> optimal set and learning about the optimization problem. However, in the case of many objective functions, the accumulation of derived solutions makes accessing the sol…
Analysis of the psicometric properties of a multiplication and division processes assessment scale
2019
Esta comunicación se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: http://www.infad.eu/RevistaINFAD/OJS/index.php/IJODAEP/article/view/1464/1321 Este número está dedicado a la "Psicología de la Educación y Saberes Originarios". The domain of multiplication and division operations depends on both algorithm management and the ability to identify the semantic structure of the problem and to translate it into mathematical language. Many students present difficulties in identifying the semantic structure of the problem but not applying the algorithm when the problem is presented numericaly. The aim of the study is to validate an assessment tool of the processes involved in multiplication and divisio…
Surgical repair of acute Achilles tendon rupture with an end-to-end tendon suture and tendon flap.
2015
Abstract Background Achilles tendon ruptures are becoming more common. Complications after open or minimally invasive surgery are: recurrent rupture (2–8%), wound breakdown, deep infections, granuloma, and fistulas. The authors expose their experience with a personal technique. Materials In 8 patients with acute rupture of Achilles tendon the surgery was performed at least 25 days after trauma. Clinical exam and MR demonstrated in all case a total lesion of tendon. After a posterolateral skin incision the tendon stumps were debrided and suture in end-to-end fashion. A tendon flap was harvested from the proximal part of the tendon, in order to protect and reinforce the suture itself. A plast…
In vitro comparison of the efficacy of two fractured implant-prosthesis screw extraction methods: Conventional versus mechanical.
2019
Abstract Statement of problem Implant-supported prostheses may be subject to esthetic, biological, or mechanical complications. Protocols for dealing with these mechanical problems are sparse. Purpose The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the efficacy of a mechanical system for extracting fractured implant-prosthesis screws with the conventional method. Material and methods A total of 60 screws were divided into 2 groups according to their morphology (flat screws with a smooth shaft and threaded apical area and screws with a completely threaded body) and subjected to fatiguing and static load testing until fracture. The specimens were assigned to 3 operators with varying levels …
