Facial expressions of emotion constitute a critical portion of our non-verbal social interactions. In addition, the identity of the individual displaying this expression is critical to these interactions as they embody the context in which these expressions will be interpreted. To identify any overlapping and/or unique brain circuitry involved in the processing of these two information streams ...

The increased availability of biological databases containing representations of complex objects permits access to vast amounts of data. In spite of the recent renewed interest in knowledge-discovery techniques (or data mining), there is a dearth of data analysis methods intended to facilitate understanding of the represented objects and related systems by their most representative features and...

Under certain mild condition, the Pareto-optimal set (PS) of a continuous multiobjective optimization problem, with m objectives, is a piece-wise continuous (m 1)-dimensional manifold. This regularity property is important, yet has been unfortunately ignored in many evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) studies. The first work that explicitly takes advantages of this regularity propert...

An experimental infection with Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium was evaluated in gnotobiotic mice previously exposed to a plasmid-free non-pathogenic Escherichia coli (EMO strain). Mice were exposed to EMO (experimental) or not (control) 10 days before challenge with Salmonella Typhimurium (10(2) colony forming units (CFU)/mouse). Survival after challenge was higher (P < ...

In this paper we present Panormo a tour guide robot for the Botanical Garden of Palermo. Panormo is equipped with an emotional learning system that gives it the ability to learn the emotional evaluation for each incoming stimulus. This evaluation induces robot’s emotional states that drive its tour. The robot carries out a dramatization of the tour according to drama’s theory and its emotions. ...

Emotions are an essential part of being human. Whether we experience them deeply, overcontrol them, or let overwhelm us, emotions have a big influence on our experiences, performance, and quality life. Bing emotional intelligent helps us make better decisions, forge stronger relationships, overcome challenging situations. To improve intelligence,we designed immersive setting where participants ...
