Progressive vowel height harmony in Proto-Kikongo and Proto-Bantu Ghent University
The systematic comparison of the different types of progressive Vowel Height Harmony (pVHH) attested within the Kikongo Language Cluster (KLC) leads to the conclusion that this common Bantu process of long-distance assimilation cannot be reconstructed to Proto-Kikongo. The ‘(a)symmetric-pVHH’ and ‘back-pVHH’ patterns, the two main and structurally different kinds of pVHH within the KLC, emerged independently and relatively late within two ...
Regression of fluctuating system properties : Baryonic Tully-Fisher scaling in disk galaxies Ghent University
An end-to-end machine learning system for harmonic analysis of music Ghent University
We present a new system for the harmonic analysis of popular musical audio. It is focused on chord estimation, although the proposed system additionally estimates the key sequence and bass notes. It is distinct from competing approaches in two main ways. First, it makes use of a new improved chromagram representation of audio that takes the human perception of loudness into account. Furthermore, it is the first system for joint estimation of ...
Effects of malaria/helminthic coinfections on cervical cancer progression among sub Saharan African women on highly active antiretroviral therapy : a scoping review Ghent University University of Antwerp
In Africa, the HIV prevalence in rural areas has begun to reach levels estimated within urban settings, where women are also more at risk for both malaria and intestinal parasitic infections. The objective of this review is to assess whether concomitant infections with malaria and/or helminthic diseases have an impact on cervical disease progression in women on HAART. This scoping review was conducted in August 2018. To conduct this scoping ...
Time–frequency analysis of time-varying in vivo myocardial impedance Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The frequency response identification of a (bio-)system that is inherently nonlinear and time-varying, e.g. in vivo myocardial impedance, through electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is still a task in progress today that deserves further research. In this work, the in-cycle time-varying behavior of in vivo myocardium is modeled by means of Fricke-Morse's circuit model. Temporal changes in the in vivo myocardial impedance during the cardiac ...
Report of the ENETWILD training “Second online course on the use of camera trapping for monitoring wildlife and density estimation in the framework of the European Observatory of Wildlife-EOW” Research Institute for Nature and Forest
During summer 2022, the European Wildlife Observatory (EOW2), involving 50 study areas in at least 30 European countries, has applied similar camera-trapping-based population estimation protocols and data collection standards to facilitate harmonization and interoperability. For this purpose, continuous training of the network of wildlife professionals in Europe is a key activity of the EOW. In this context, in May 2022 the ENETWILD consortium ...
Multimodal imaging of dental pulp healing patterns following tooth autotransplantation and regenerative endodontic treatment Ghent University KU Leuven Hasselt University
Introduction: Understanding the healing process of dental pulp after tooth autotransplantation (TAT) and regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) of immature teeth is important both clinically and scientifically. This study aimed to characterize the pattern of dental pulp healing in human teeth that underwent TAT and RET using state-of-the-art im-aging techniques. Materials and Methods: This study examined 4 human teeth, 2 premolars that ...
Harmonized definition of occupational burnout: A systematic review, semantic analysis, and Delphi consensus in 29 countries KU Leuven
Objective A consensual definition of occupational burnout is currently lacking. We aimed to harmonize the definition of occupational burnout as a health outcome in medical research and reach a consensus on this definition within the Network on the Coordination and Harmonisation of European Occupational Cohorts (OMEGA-NET). Methods First, we performed a systematic review in MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Embase (January 1990 to August 2018) and a semantic ...
