The Large Intelligent Surface (LIS) concept has emerged recently as a new paradigm for wireless communication, remote sensing and positioning. It consists of a continuous radiating surface placed relatively close to the users, which is able to communicate with users by independent transmission and reception (as a Base Station). Despite of its potential, there are a lot of challenges from an implem
We see a potential for ESS to benefit from sharing alarm data for machine learning applications, by establishing data ecosystem. To achieve these goal, ESS must make a strategic decision to pursue data sharing, establish a technical platform to share a digital twin, continue advancing the data ecosystem, and work towards a standardized reference model.
In this paper we propose a design methodology to partition dataflow applications on a multi clock domain architecture. This work shows how starting from a high level dataflow representation of a dynamic program it is possible to reduce the overall power consumption without impacting the performances. Two different approaches are illustrated, both based on the post-processing and analysis of the ca
Different strategies have been used to stimulate a return to work (RTW) among individuals suffering from long-term ailments. In Sweden a new law on "resting disability pension" permits disability pensioners to go back to work without jeopardising their benefits. In this study different variables related to RTW during 2000 by means of this legislation were identified among disability pensioners witDifferent strategies have been used to stimulate a return to work (RTW) among individuals suffering from long-term ailments.

Electromagnetic fields exist all around us. Through evolution, nature has developed tools to interact and use these fields, where our eyes are a spectacular example. Humans have a long history of developing structures and objects of their own to alter and interact with these fields. Today they are important cornerstones in society, with radiating devices such as cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, or car
Gas in scattering media absorption spectroscopy shortly called GASMAS, is a tunable diode laser spectroscopic technique developed for the measurement of gas present in turbid media. The technique relies on the sharp and specific absorption lines of gases which enables sensitive measurements of gas concentrations in the presence of a scattering solid medium with much broader absorption features. Th
In the adult murine brain, neural stem cells (NSCs) can be found in two main niches: the dentate gyrus (DG) and the subventricular zone (SVZ). In the DG, NSCs produce intermediate progenitors (IPs) that differentiate into excitatory neurons, while progenitors in the SVZ migrate to the olfactory bulb (OB), where they mainly differentiate into inhibitory interneurons. Neurogenesis, the process of ge
This article considers state estimation of rigid-body dynamics where the positions q are available to measurement but where the angular velocities ̇or accelerations are not available to measurement. Using a stability-oriented approach to model-based design of state estimation for Euler–Lagrange systems and rigid-body dynamics, state estimation based on position measurement is shown to guarantee se
Indoor sensing is challenging because of the multi-bounce effect, spherical wavefront, and spatial nonstationarity (SNS) of the near-field effect. This paper addresses radio-based environment sensing considering these issues. Specifically, graph theory (GT) is used to model the multi-bounce propagation of the near field. In this manner, indoor reflectors/scatterers are modeled as vertices in a pro
Perceiving and understanding human motion is a fundamental problem in computer vision, with diverse applications encompassing sports analytics, healthcare monitoring, entertainment, and intelligent interactive systems. Multi-camera systems, by capturing multiple viewpoints simultaneously, enable robust tracking and reconstruction of human poses in 3D, overcoming limitations of single-view approach
In Chapter 11, Oksana Mont and Yuliya Voytenko Palgan examine the relationship between the sharing economy and the concept of sufficiency. The chapter highlights how shared access to goods and services can change consumption patterns, maximising resource use and reducing the need for new production. This can decrease resource extraction and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The authors discuss how
This paper presents the design and comparison of an active Gm-C and a passive baseband filter for 6G applications. Both presented circuits are 5th-order differential low-pass filters with 3-dB cut-off frequencies of 4.9 and 4.7 GHz, respectively, implemented in a 22 nm FD-SOI CMOS technology. The active filter uses back-gate tuning to optimize the transfer function, and achieves a measured in-band
A non-adaptive quantitative group testing (GT) scheme based on sparse codes-on-graphs in combination with low-complexity peeling decoding was introduced and analyzed by Karimi et al.. In this work, we propose a variant of this scheme based on low-density parity-check codes where the BCH codes at the constraint nodes are replaced by simple single parity-check codes. Furthermore, we apply spatial co
Lines and points are complementary local features, whose combination has proven effective for applications such as SLAM and Structure-from-Motion. The backbone of these pipelines are the local feature matchers, establishing correspondences across images. Traditionally, point and line matching have been treated as independent tasks. Recently, GlueStick proposed a GNN-based network that simultane-ou
A decentralized strategy for object transportation is presented, assuming that the object is grasped by a team of N cooperative manipulators. The proposed strategy consists of two steps. First, each robot estimates the wrenches applied to the object by all the others robots, even without all-to-all communication. Second, an admittance control scheme is used to limit internal wrenches, preventing e
The Tajik health system is characterized by improving health outcomes over the last 20 years, but also major inefficiencies in health care delivery and large difficulties for people to access affordable essential health care. The benefits package (BP) is a key tool for prioritizing state budget allocations toward health interventions that most effectively enhance health system performance. This ar
Purpose: To avoid over-treatment of prostate cancer patients following screening for elevated prostate-specific antigen levels, keeping patients on active surveillance has been suggested as an alternative to radical treatment. This means recurring visits for patients with low-grade cancer to monitor progression. Our aim was to develop an artificial intelligence-based model that can identify high-r
