The automation of cryoEM pipelines to aid data-quality analysis during acquisition poses a number of challenges, particularly at facilities where the expected data rates are high. The use of a modern service-based architecture deployed on Diamond Light Source’s on-premises cloud computing cluster to tackle some of…

Many problems in Computer Science can be framed as the computation of queries over sequences, or "streams" of data units called events. The field of Complex Event Processing (CEP) relates to the techniques and tools developed to efficiently process these queries. However, most CEP systems developed so far have…

One view of speech perception is that acoustic signals are transformed into representations for pattern matching to determine linguistic structure. This process can be taken as a statistical pattern-matching problem, assuming realtively stable linguistic categories are characterized by neural representations related to…

'M. Romaniello' 'A. Modigliani' 'J. Pritchard'] Context. Astronomical data reduction is usually done with processing pipelines that consist of a series of individual processing steps that can be executed stand-alone. These processing steps are then strung together into workflows and fed with data to address a…

Existing models of computation, such as a Turing machine (hereafter, TM), do not consider the agent involved in interpreting the outcome of the computation. We argue that a TM, or any other computation model, has no significance if its output is not interpreted by some agent. Furthermore, we argue that including the…

The paper presents a substantial review of the use of non-thermal technologies in the food industry. In contrast to thermal processing, non-thermal techniques have been very effective in improving and maintaining the nutritional composition of food items. As an alternative to thermal processing, various ambient…

'Barbara Rasco'] A resurgence in interest examining thermal pasteurization technologies has been driven by demands for “cleaner” labeling and the need of organic and natural foods markets for suitable preventive measures to impede microbial growth and extend shelf life of minimally processed foods and ready-to-eat…

Polymer-based semiconductors and organic electronics encapsulate a significant research thrust for informatics-driven materials development. However, device measurements are described by a complex array of design and parameter choices, many of which are sparsely reported. For example, the mobility of a polymer-based…

As the chemical sector looks to decarbonize, one promising solution is the utilization of bio-feedstocks and biowaste to produce functional molecules. There is, therefore, great interest in understanding how and where to integrate these resources within chemical supply chains. To assist such efforts, screening…

Photocatalytic overall water splitting is a promising pathway to green hydrogen but also presents unique research challenges due to the need to detect both gaseous products (H2 and O2). While gas chromatography (GC) is the most commonly employed method in this context, it faces multiple shortcomings: low time…

We present a new methodology for real-time observation of mechanochemical transformations, based on a magnetic resonance method in which T1-T2 relaxation time correlation maps are used to track the formation of the popular metal-organic framework (MOF) materials Zn-MOF-74 and ZIF-8. This two-dimensional (2D) relaxation…

The number of events recorded for operational processes is growing every year. This applies to all domains: from health care and e-government to production and maintenance. Event data are a valuable source of information for organizations that need to meet requirements related to compliance, efficiency, and customer…

'Anahita Farhang Ghahfarokhi' 'Mahsa Pourbafrani' 'Merih Seran Uysal' 'Sebastiaan J. van Zelst'] > Abstract. Operational processes in production, logistics, material handling, maintenance, etc., are supported by cyber-physical systems combining hardware and software components. As a result, the digital and the physical…

Conflict detection in sensory input is central to adaptive human behavior. Perhaps unsurprisingly, past research has shown that conflict may be detected even in the absence of conflict awareness, suggesting that conflict detection is a fully automatic process that does not require attention. Across six behavioral…

The reaction between sulfur and dicyclopentadiene was optimised to form a shelf stable and soluble low molecular weight oligomer. After a simple curing process at 140 °C the material was rendered insoluble and resistant to acids and solvents. Taking advantage of the soluble oligomer, a metal surface was coated with the…

Natural scenes usually contain a vast number of objects that need to be segmented and segregated from each other and from the background to guide behaviour. In the visual brain, object-based attention is the process by which image fragments belonging to the same objects are grouped together. The curve-tracing task is a…

Manufacturing enterprises accumulate numerous manufacturing instances as they run and develop. Being able to excavate and apply the instance resources reasonably is one of the most effective approaches to improve manufacturing and support innovation. A novel framework for the discovery and reuse of typical process…

In this work, we present DBgen, a Python library that provides a framework for defining extract-transform-load (ETL) pipelines to create and populate SQL databases. DBgen is most useful when the underlying data has complex relationships, requires multi-step analysis, is large-scale, and the type of data being collected…

The article presents a proposal for optimizing the production process of corrugated cardboard based on measurements of process variables as well as the knowledge and skills of the operator conducting production. This technique involves continuous recording and analysis of process quantities that affect the quality of…

It remains unknown to what extent the human visual system interprets information about complex scenes without conscious analysis. Here we used visual masking techniques to assess whether illusory contours (Kanizsa shapes) are perceived when the inducing context creating this illusion does not reach awareness. In…

'Axel Winkelmann'] Digital transformation forces companies to rethink their processes to meet current customer needs. Business Process Management (BPM) can provide the means to structure and tackle this change. However, most approaches to BPM face restrictions on the number of processes they can optimize at a time due…

Owing to the worldwide mass growth and environmental global changes, the development of sustainable materials for advanced technologies must be accelerated to satisfy the mankind needs and as well as limit the impact of climate change. So, going to this sense, here, it is discussed the valorization of an earth rich…

The first steps of visual processing are often described as a bank of oriented filters followed by divisive normalization. This approach has been tremendously successful at predicting contrast thresholds in simple visual displays. However, it is unclear to what extent this kind of architecture also supports processing…

Visual object-based attention marks a key process of mammalian perception. By which mechanisms this process is implemented and how it can be interacted with by means of attentional control is not completely understood yet. Incremental binding is a mechanism required in more demanding scenarios of object-based attention…

Cognitive control over conflicting sensory input is central to adaptive human behavior. It might therefore not come as a surprise that past research has shown conflict detection in the absence of conscious awareness. This would suggest that the brain may detect conflict fully automatically, and that it can even occur…
