In this paper we present a model of competition between operators on urban local bus routes in which passengers always board the first bus to arrive, and it is costly to revise timetables. The model predictds that timetables are unstable, the operator whose bus was boarded by fewest passengers is the most likely to change its arrival time, and to try to leapfrog its rival by arriving just befor...

In this paper we will describe our research in case of using Expert System as a decision-making system. We made our attempt to expose a base strategy from past log files and implement an online learning system which receives information from the environment. In developing the coach, the main research effort comprises two complementary parts: (a) Design a rule-based expert system in which its ta...

In this paper an agent-based ambient system is presented to support persons in learning specific movement patterns. The ambient system serves as a personal coach that observes a person’s movement pattern, and analyses this based on comparison with an ideal pattern generated by optimisation using a computational musculoskeletal model for this type of pattern minimizing knee joint loading. Based ...

The SE-Coach is a tutoring module designed to help students learn effectively from examples through guiding self-explanation, a meta-cognitive-skill that involves clarifying and explaining to oneself the worked out solution for a problem. The SE-Coach provides this guidance through (a) an interface that allows the student to interactively build self-explanations based on the domaintheory (b) a ...

Here we demonstrate our Intelligent Coaching Space, an immersive virtual environment in which users learn a motor action (e.g. a squat) under the supervision of a virtual coach. We detail how we assess the ability of the coachee in executing the motor action, how the intelligent coaching space and its features are realized and how the virtual coach leads the coachee through a coaching session.

BACKGROUND Anxiety disorders share common vulnerabilities and symptoms. Disorder-specific treatment is efficacious, but few access evidence-based care. Administering transdiagnostic cognitive-behavioral therapy via the internet (iCBT) may increase access to evidence-based treatment, with a recent randomized controlled trial (RCT) providing preliminary support for this approach. This study exten...

BACKGROUND To improve continuity of care at hospital admission and discharge and to decrease medication errors pharmaceutical care programs are developed. This study aims to determine the cost-effectiveness of the COACH program in comparison with usual care from a societal perspective. METHODS A controlled clinical trial was performed at the Internal Medicine department of a general teaching ...
