Basic information processing abilities at 11 years account for deficits in IQ associated with preterm birth Ghent University
Analyzing WSN-based IoT Systems using MDE techniques and Petri-net models University of Antwerp
There are various computation components, operating systems, and firmware used in the development of the Internet of Things (IoT). This variety increases the structural complexity and development cost and effort of the IoT systems. Besides, analyzing and troubleshooting these systems are time-consuming, costly, and cumbersome. To address these problems, this study aims to provide a higher level of abstraction for analyzing and developing IoT ...
Exploring psychoacoustic indicators of tyre/road noise in urban environments University of Antwerp
Road traffic noise is the most common source of community noise in urban areas, causing adverse impacts on the health and well-being of the exposed population. Therefore, mastering road traffic noise perception is key to tackling noise pollution. Vehicle noise is mainly produced by the tyre/pavement interaction, especially for light vehicles, which compose most of the vehicle fleet in urban environments. In this paper, tyre/road noise recordings ...
Proceedings of the Shared Task on Cross-Genre Gender Prediction in Dutch at CLIN29 (GxG-CLIN29) University of Antwerp
Determining author or reader: a statistical analysis of textual features in children’s and adult literature University of Antwerp
Due to the nature of literary texts as being composed of words rather than numbers, they are not an obvious choice to serve as data for statistical analyses. However, with the help of computational tech- niques, words can be converted to numerical data and certain parts of a text can be examined on a large scale. Textual elements such as sentence length, word length and lexical diversity, which are associated by scholars on the one hand with the ...
Linguistic value construction in 18th-century London auction advertisements: a quantitative approach University of Antwerp
Georgian England was characterised by a buzzing consumer society in which advertising played a pro- progressively important role when it came to the (linguistic) value construction surrounding material goods. Increasingly, the perceived value of goods was not only determined by the intrinsic quality of the goods, but also by the socio-commercial discourse used to characterise them. Linguistic modifiers, such as adjectives, must have played an ...
Multi-paradigm design space exploration for advanced cyber-physical systems University of Antwerp
As cyber-physical systems become more complex, the engineering domains involved in their design become more intertwined. In these situations, an integrated design approach is needed, where parameters in the different domains must be considered and evaluated together to ensure an efficient deployment. However, in such an approach, the design space expands dramatically. As such, methods that allow engineers from different domains to reason about ...
Dynamic Infrared Thermography (DIRT) in biomedical applications University of Antwerp
Infrared thermography technology has improved drastically in recent years and is regaining interest in medicine for applications such as deep inferior epigastric perforate flap breast reconstruction, breast cancer diagnosis, skin tissue identification, psoriasis detection, etc. However, there is still a need for an optimised measurement setup and protocol in order to capture the most suitable images for decision making and further processing. ...
Chlorogenic acid as a model compound for optimization of an in vitro gut microbiome-metabolism model University of Antwerp
It has been believed that the metabolism of xenobiotics occurred mainly by the cytochrome P450 enzyme system in the liver. However, recent data clearly suggest a significant role for the gut microbiota in the metabolism of xenobiotic compounds. This microbiotic biotransformation could lead to differences on activation, inactivation and possible toxicity of these compounds. In vitro models are generally used to study the colonic biotransformation ...
