No matter what your favorite definition of co-verbal “hand and arm gesture” is, at the basic kinematic level a hand and arm gesture is in any case manifested by some spatiotemporal body movement. Accordingly, a prerequisite of any empirical, data-driven account to gesture is to locate those segments in the stream of hand and arm movements that make up a co-verbal hand and arm gesture. Following...

BACKGROUND Rating scales form an important means of gathering evaluation data. Since important decisions are often based on these evaluations, determining the reliability of rating data can be critical. Most commonly used methods of estimating reliability require a complete set of ratings i.e. every subject being rated must be rated by each judge. Over fifty years ago Ebel described an algorith...

UNLABELLED The genomic mutation consequence calculator (GMCC) is a tool that will reliably and quickly calculate the consequence of arbitrary genomic mutations. GMCC also reports supporting annotations for the specified genomic region. The particular strength of the GMCC is it works in genomic space, not simply in spliced transcript space as some similar tools do. Within gene features, GMCC can...

The (classes of the) objects we saw in the previous chapter are rather simple. Not because they are small in size. In fact, in well-written, real-world code, objects tend to be fairly small. The main reason for the simplicity is that each of these objects has a single, self-contained method that does not interact with other methods. In this chapter we will see how methods can call each other, m...

A key term discussed in this study is change, which occurs in a company or is implemented by the company management. The basis for considerations in the subject of modelling changes within a company is the fact that changes are one of the most significant factors for all economic entities. Changes allow them to survive and to operate in such a turbulent and dynamically developing environment as...

The purpose of this project is to implement a traditional simple digital calculator that performs the four basic operations; Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division of 8 bits unsigned numbers. Nexys4 board was used to manage four computations, input functions and output functions. 16 switches on the board will be the input, and output will be displayed on the seven-segment on the bo...

BACKGROUND A combination of clinical and routine laboratory data with biomarkers reflecting different pathophysiological pathways may help to refine risk stratification in heart failure (HF). A novel calculator (BCN Bio-HF calculator) incorporating N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP, a marker of myocardial stretch), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT, a marker of myo...

McEliece Public Key Cryptosystem (PKC) is interesting since its resistance against all known attacks, even using quantum cryptanalysis. Unfortunately, Side Channel Attacks (SCAs) are very powerful attacks which even McEliece PKC is vulnerable to. In this work, we present the Leakage Measurement Tool of the McEliece PKC Calculator [1]. The Calculator also provides test vectors (for all important...

The pocket programmable calculator represents a new generation of information processing devices. It can take real-time information such as pressures, gas tensions, cardiac outputs, and other directly measured parameters and make extremely complex numerical calculations providing valuable physiological information to physicians, perfusionists, nurses, or technicians. This information is obtaina...
