This paper discusses how computer-based techniques of spatial montage can be used to visualise aspects of migration and social division among a displaced community. It is based on an ongoing collaboration between the author and the anthropologist, Wendy JAMES. The work is based on a substantial archive of ethnographic photographs, audio, cine and video recordings collected by JAMES in the Sudan...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) might restore communication to people severely disabled by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or other disorders. We sought to: 1) define a protocol for determining whether a person with ALS can use a visual P300-based BCI; 2) determine what proportion of this population can use the BCI; and 3) identify factors affecting BCI performance. Twenty-five individuals...

In this video we present a new model of interaction for indexing and visualizing video in the context of security applications. We wish to index security video that contains relatively rare but important events, such as security video taken from large public or industrial facilities (e.g. a nuclear power plant) or exterior home security video from a residential neighborhood. We present a method...

There is mounting evidence of a link between the properties of electroencephalograms (EEGs) of depressive patients and the outcome of pharmacotherapy. The goal of this study was to develop an EEG biomarker of antidepressant treatment response which would require only a single EEG measurement. We recorded resting 21-channel EEG in 17 in-patients suffering from bipolar depression in eyes-closed a...

In many-task computing (MTC), applications such as scientific workflows or parameter sweeps communicate via intermediate files; application performance strongly depends on the file system in use. The state of the art uses runtime systems providing in-memory file storage that is designed for data locality: files are placed on those nodes that write or read them. With data locality, however, task...

Gene Therapy In article 2202358, Minseok Kwak, Peter Chang-Whan Lee, and co-workers show effective tumor suppression using RNAi with just three DNA RNA strands. This transfection reagent-free technique self-assembles siRNAs covers micelles to create nanomedicine for lung cancer. Raw data files are used a montage background, recognizing the work of graduate students.

3xShapes of Home (2020) is a 7 minute experimental video, exploring how essayist film practice may be way to think topographically, that is: conceptually through non-verbal techniques such as camera movement, position, montage and algorithm, about place forms structures, their projective powers for the imagination place. The video part larger study on Essay Film Topography. won Ivan Juritz Priz...

As the number of services and the size of data involved in workflows increases, centralised orchestration techniques are reaching the limits of scalability. In the classic orchestration model, all data passes through a centralised engine, which results in unnecessary data transfer, wasted bandwidth and the engine to become a bottleneck to the execution of a workflow. This paper presents and eva...

BACKGROUND Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive, versatile, and safe neuromodulation technology under investigation for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders, adjunct to rehabilitation, and cognitive enhancement in healthy adults. Despite promising results, there is variability in responsiveness. One potential source of variability is the intensity of current d...
