Some collective behavior during escape panic such as the ‘faster-is-slower effect’ and the irregular outflow are associated with clogging. The reasons for clogging appearance are investigated with a multi-grid model which is presented in previous work. The model implements finer discretization which leads to clogging effects in the dynamics. The effects of the exit width and the interactions ca...

For most healthcare information systems, passwords are the first line of defense in keeping patient and administrative records private and secure. However, this defense is only as strong as the passwords employees chose to use. A weak or easily guessed password is like an open door to the medical records room, allowing unauthorized access to sensitive information. In this paper, we present the ...

We present here a method for providing a mobile robot with learning capabi l i t ies. The method is based on a model of the environment with several hierarchical levels organized by degree of abstract i on . The mathematical structuring tool used is the decomposition of a graph into i t s k-connected components (k=2 and k=3). This structure allows the robot to improve navigation procedures and ...

The smart mobile terminal operator platform Android is getting popular all over the world with its wide variety of applications and enormous use in numerous spheres of our daily life.

1. A back-to-back cargo movement is generally understood as the transfer of loose goods from one truck to another---in its literal form, positioning two trucks with their backs to one another. Primitive variants involve laborintensive handling and placement of cargo on the ground during the transfer. This process inflicts serious time delays and damage to cargo and is widely avoided in modern t...

People use sound both consciously and unconsciously to understand their surroundings. As we spend more time in a setting, whether in our car or our favorite cafe, we gain a sense of the soundscape the aggregate acoustic characteristics in the environment. Our project aims to test whether the acoustic environment in different areas of Stanford campus are distinct enough for a machine learning al...

When I was street homeless, the challenge was getting to see a general practitioner. So many obstacles were in the way—no address, out of area, no proof of who I was. It was as if I needed three forms of identification and a letter from God just to get past the receptionist. Surgery doors closed in my face, and excuse after excuse was given as to why I couldn’t see the doctor. I was sent to oth...
