PHYSICAL EXERCISES AND FENCING.

Modeling rhythmic physical exercises

In the framework of our ongoing project [2, 3, 4], we aim at developing a Reactive Virtual Trainer (RVT), an intelligent virtual agents (IVA) who can not only perform exercises, but adjust those, and interweave the physical performance with explanations, correcting remarks and social chat. For an IVA in such a role where the demonstrated motion is to be copied by the user, the subtle, physicall...

Geo-fencing: Confining Wi-Fi Coverage to Physical Boundaries

We present a means of containing Wi-Fi coverage to physical boundaries that are meaningful to users. We call it geo-fencing. Our approach is based on directional antennas, and our motivation is to provide wireless access and privacy models that are a natural fit with user expectations. To evaluate geo-fencing, we use measurements from an indoor testbed of Wi-Fi nodes and APs with electronically...

Endometriosis and physical exercises: a systematic review

Regular physical exercise seems to have protective effects against diseases that involve inflammatory processes since it induces an increase in the systemic levels of cytokines with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and also acts by reducing estrogen levels. Evidence has suggested that the symptoms associated with endometriosis result from a local inflammatory peritoneal reaction cau...

P-78: Endometriosis and Physical Exercises among Infertile Iranian Women

Background Endometriosis, defined by overgrowth of endometrial implants outside the uterine cavity, is commonly found on the ovaries. The role of exercise in this disease is not well understood. Regular exercise appears to have protective effects against endometriosis that involve inflammatory processes since it induces elevate systemic levels of inflammatory cytokines production with antioxida...
