Evaluating initial usability of a hand augmentation device across a large and diverse sample

The advancement of motor augmentation and the broader domain of human-machine interaction rely on a seamless integration with users' physical and cognitive capabilities. These considerations may markedly fluctuate among individuals on the basis of their ag ...

Adapting Haptic Feedback for Guided Meditation

Cédric Duchene, Nicolas Henchoz, Emily Clare Groves, Romain Simon Collaud, Andreas Sonderegger, Yoann Pierre Douillet

Technology supporting meditation is a multimillion-dollar market that continues to grow. There is also strong academic interest to understand and improve the impact technology can have for the user experience of practitioners. However, little work investig ...

Age-Optimal Causal Labeling of Memoryless Processes

Emre Telatar, Yunus Inan

We consider a problem of labeling a memoryless temporal point process. The labelings have to be done causally. We study the tradeoff between the rate and age of the labeled process and characterize the optimal tradeoff curve. We show that the optimal curve ...

Optima Age Over Erasure Channels

Emre Telatar, Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Previous works on age of information and erasure channels have dealt with specific models and computed the average age or average peak age for certain settings. In this paper, given a source that produces a letter every T-s seconds and an erasure channel t ...

Age- and gender-related differences in brain tissue microstructure revealed by multi-component T2 relaxometry

Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez

In spite of extensive work, inconsistent findings and lack of specificity in most neuroimaging techniques used to examine age- and gender-related patterns in brain tissue microstructure indicate the need for additional research. Here, we performed the larg ...

Movement-Related Cortical Potentials in Embodied Virtual Mirror Visual Feedback

Gangadhar Garipelli, Tamara Rossy

Background: Mirror therapy is thought to drive interhemispheric communication, resulting in a balanced activation. We hypothesized that embodied virtual mirror visual feedback (VR-MVF) presented on a computer screen may produce a similar activation. In thi ...

Is the car losing its shine? An analysis of European adolescents' imaginaries of the automobile

Vincent Kaufmann, Emmanuel Pierre Jean Ravalet, Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon

Recent scientific publications show an increase in the average age for obtaining a driving licence. This phenomenon would tend to suggest a certain disavowal of the car among young adults and teenagers. Basing on a survey of more than 8’000 teenagers in fi ...

Optimal Age over Erasure Channels

Emre Telatar, Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Given a source that produces a letter every T-s seconds and an erasure channel that can be used every T-c seconds, we ask what is the coding strategy that minimizes the time-average "age of information" that an observer of the channel output incurs. We wil ...

Bits through Time

Elie Najm

In any communication system, there exist two dimensions through which the information at the source becomes distorted before reaching the destination: the noisy channel and time. Messages transmitted through a noisy channel are susceptible to modification ...

The individual structure of visual space

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Gregory Francis, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

Common factors are ubiquitous. First, we show that, however in vision, correlations of performance in similar paradigms are low even though test-retest reliability is high. Second, one might expect that correlations increase with increasing age because of ...

Multi-factorial approach in aging research

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

The developed world is aging faster than ever before. Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging affects all kinds of human functions including perception and cognition. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually foun ...

Durability and fatigue performance of a typical cold-curing structural adhesive in bridge construction

Maria Savvilotidou

The science of adhesives and adhesion for structural connections has undergone significant development during the last few decades - and successfully so in a wide variety of industries. Recent applications of structural bonding are being adopted in the con ...

Illusory hand ownership in a patient with personal neglect for the upper limb, but no somatoparaphenia

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Roberta Ronchi, Lukas Heydrich

The symptoms of patients with left personal neglect are characterized by inattention towards contralesional (left) body parts while at the same time explicitly ascertaining ownership for the neglected hemibody. It is currently unknown if personal neglect i ...

Is there a common cause for perceptual decline in the aging brain?

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke, Albulena Jashari-Shaqiri

Even in the absence of neurodegenerative disease, aging strongly affects vision. Whereas optical deficits are well documented, much less is known perceptual deficits. In most perceptual studies, one paradigm is tested and it is usually found that older par ...

You're Doing It Wrong! Studying Unexpected Behaviors in Child-Robot Interaction

Pierre Dillenbourg, Francesco Mondada, Séverin Lemaignan, Julia Fink

We present a study on the impact of unexpected robot behaviors on the perception of a robot by children and their subsequent engagement in a playful interaction based on a novel ”domino” task. We propose an original analysis methodology which blends behavi ...

Cluster phenomenon and partial differential aging in RAP mixtures

André-Gilles Dumont, Michel Pittet, Sara Bressi

The present study defines a procedure for gaining a better understanding of the interaction between the aged and the virgin binders and what actually occurs during a mix process. Indeed, the authors propose a methodology to determine and quantify the clust ...

Genetic Association of Recovery from Eating Disorders: The Role of GABA Receptor SNPs

Pierre Magistretti

Follow-up studies of eating disorders (EDs) suggest outcomes ranging from recovery to chronic illness or death, but predictors of outcome have not been consistently identified. We tested 5151 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in approximately 350 cand ...

Combining vernier acuity and visual backward masking as a sensitive test for visual temporal deficits in aging research

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili

Performance in many everyday situations slows down when age increases. The causes of slowing down may be found on any stage of information processing. Here, we show that the combination of a vernier acuity task and the shine-through backward masking paradi ...
