Critical Assessment of Feed-In Tariffs and Solar Photovoltaic Development in Vietnam
2022
Vietnam became the world’s third largest market for solar photovoltaic energy in 2020. Especially after the Vietnamese government issued feed-in tariffs for grid-connected solar photovoltaic systems, the installed capacity of solar photovoltaic applications exploded in 2019. From studies carried out in the relevant literature, it can be said that support policies are highly important for the initial development of the renewable energy industry in most countries. This is especially true in emerging countries such as Vietnam. This paper reviews the feed-in tariffs issued and deployed in different regions of Vietnam for grid-connected solar photovoltaic applications. Moreover, the paper takes …
Robustness of PET Radiomics Features: Impact of Co-Registration with MRI
2021
Radiomics holds great promise in the field of cancer management. However, the clinical application of radiomics has been hampered by uncertainty about the robustness of the features extracted from the images. Previous studies have reported that radiomics features are sensitive to changes in voxel size resampling and interpolation, image perturbation, or slice thickness. This study aims to observe the variability of positron emission tomography (PET) radiomics features under the impact of co-registration with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the difference percentage coefficient, and the Spearman’s correlation coefficient for three groups of images: (i) original PET, (ii) PET after co-…
Robots as intelligent assistants to face COVID-19 pandemic
2020
AbstractMotivationThe epidemic at the beginning of this year, due to a new virus in the coronavirus family, is causing many deaths and is bringing the world economy to its knees. Moreover, situations of this kind are historically cyclical. The symptoms and treatment of infected patients are, for better or worse even for new viruses, always the same: more or less severe flu symptoms, isolation and full hygiene. By now man has learned how to manage epidemic situations, but deaths and negative effects continue to occur. What about technology? What effect has the actual technological progress we have achieved? In this review, we wonder about the role of robotics in the fight against COVID. It p…
Il sacrificio di Abramo e il miracolo della fonte nell'arcosolio VII.21 della catacomba di Villagrazia di Carini
2014
I due temi di ispirazione biblica decorano un arcosolio per bambino nella parete orientale della galleria VII. Nella lunetta la scena del sacrificio, alla quale assiste una figura femminile di orante in tunica clavata e con l'acconciatura a turbante tipica del IV secolo. Nel sottarco si conserva solo la figura di Mosè che percuote con la verga la roccia da cui scaturisce l'acqua. I confronti rimandano soprattutto alla decorazione pittorica delle catacombe cristiane di Roma. Le implicazioni dottrinali sottese al tema della salvezza denotano una committenza aggiornata che predilige soggetti meno banali di quelli riscontrabili nei coevi contesti funerari urbani della Sicilia.
Demand Response for Integrating Photovoltaic Plants in Lampedusa Island
2021
This paper presents the results of a simulation study concerning different Demand Response logics applied to Electric Storage Water Heaters on the island of Lampedusa. Electric Storage Water Heaters are the devices that are primarily used on the island to produce domestic hot water. Starting from measured load profiles collected in Lampedusa, a domestic hot water consumption profile was derived, to simulate the energy usage of the Storage Water Electric Heaters during the day. This work was carried out as a preliminary feasibility study for the BloRin project, financed by cohesion funds in the Sicilian region. According to the project, which also includes the installation of domestic photov…
Efficacia clinica della terapia familiare sistemica nella schizofrenia: uno studio prospettico longitudinale
2004
Il presente studio prospettico longitudinale, con follow-up a un anno, mira alla valutazione dell’effi- cacia clinica della terapia familiare sistemica, condotta secondo il modello della Scuola di Milano, nel trattamento di pazienti affetti da schizofrenia a confronto con una casistica di controllo costituita da pazienti in terapia psichiatrica di routine. Metodi. La casistica dello studio è costituita da 20 pazienti in terapia familiare associata a trattamento psichiatrico routina- rio e 20 pazienti in trattamento psichiatrico routinario. Hanno inoltre partecipato allo studio di follow-up 40 familiari “chia- ve”, ovvero a più alta Emotività Espressa (EE). Entrambi i gruppi di pazienti sono…
ChemInform Abstract: Artalbic Acid, a Sesquiterpene with an Unusual Skeleton from Artemisia alba (Asteraceae) from Sicily.
2011
Abstract From the aerial parts of Artemisia alba (Asteraceae) artalbic acid ( 1 ), a sesquiterpene with an unusual skeleton, was isolated. Its structure was elucidated on the basis of extensive proton, 13 C and two-dimensional NMR experiments, as well as by transformation in its methyl ester derivative.
Analysis and Comparison of Deep Learning Networks for Supporting Sentiment Mining in Text Corpora
2020
In this paper, we tackle the problem of the irony and sarcasm detection for the Italian language to contribute to the enrichment of the sentiment analysis field. We analyze and compare five deep-learning systems. Results show the high suitability of such systems to face the problem by achieving 93% of F1-Score in the best case. Furthermore, we briefly analyze the model architectures in order to choose the best compromise between performances and complexity.
Supporting Emotion Automatic Detection and Analysis over Real-Life Text Corpora via Deep Learning: Model, Methodology, and Framework
2021
This paper describes an approach for supporting automatic satire detection through effective deep learning (DL) architecture that has been shown to be useful for addressing sarcasm/irony detection problems. We both trained and tested the system exploiting articles derived from two important satiric blogs, Lercio and IlFattoQuotidiano, and significant Italian newspapers.
A Controllable Text Simplification System for the Italian Language
2021
Text simplification is a non-trivial task that aims at reducing the linguistic complexity of written texts. Researchers have studied the problem by proposing new methodologies for addressing the English language, but other languages, like the Italian one, are almost unexplored. In this paper, we give a contribution to the enhancement of the Automated Text Simplification research by presenting a deep learning-based system, inspired by a state of the art system for the English language, capable of simplifying Italian texts. The system has been trained and tested by leveraging the Italian version of Newsela; it has shown promising results by achieving a SARI value of 30.17.
