A key challenge HCl researchers face when designing a controlled experiment is choosing the appropriate number of participants, or sample size. priori power analysis examines relationships among multiple parameters, including complexity associated with human e.g., order and fatigue effects, to calculate statistical given design. We created Argus, tool that supports interactive exploration power...

Abstract Background Directly observed Therapy (DOT) has proven to be a valuable asset used in ascertaining adherence tuberculosis (TB) medications, methadone, psychiatric medications and HIV medications. Both TB share the need of treatment avoid resistance. However, unlike TB, must taken for life. Argus Community (Argus DOT) provides Observed assist with medication positive patients barriers wh...

Using the ARGUS detector at the e+e storage ring DORIS II, we have measured the Michel parameters , , and for ! l  decays in -pair events produced at center of mass energies in the region of the resonances. Using ! as spin analyzing tags, we nd e = 0:68 0:04 0:08, e = 1:12 0:20 0:09, e = 0:57 0:14 0:07, = 0:69 0:06 0:08, = 1:25 0:27 0:14 and = 0:72 0:18 0:10. In addition, we report the combine...

In this paper, the semileptonic decays of heavy mesons are treated fully relativis-tically. By means of an effective vertex, the effect of Fermi momentum are included both at the inclusive and at the exclusive levels, and the spin of both parent and daughter particles are taken into account. The differential decay rates with respect to the lepton energy and momentum transfer are compared with d...

Blushing has been identified as an indicator of deception, shame, anxiety and embarrassment. Although normally associated with the skin coloration of the face, a blush response also affects skin surface temperature. In this paper, an approach to detect a blush response automatically is presented using the Argus P7225 thermal camera from e2v. The algorithm was tested on a sample population of 51...

This paper presents the main ideas and preliminary results of the two authors’ doctoral research, which is currently in a rather early stage. Up to this point, the work of the two authors is closely related and can be thought of as part of a project named “ARGUS”, which is currently in progress at the Software Laboratory of the National Technical University of Athens. It is expected that the co...
