[ANGLÈS] Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are used to monitor physical or environmental conditions, and to pass their data through the network to a central location. These networks have applications in diverse areas including ...

English: Energy harvesting is envisaged as an enabling technology to meet the growing energy demands of the 21st century. The current state of the art allows tapping into several physical and naturally existing sources, ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a growing problem in modern societies with an enormous impact in both short term quality of life and long term survival. A recently developed promising approach to cure AF uses radiofrequency ...

Discovery of causal relations from observational data is a key step toward system's understanding. Standard causal discovery methods fit a new model whenever a new causal graph is presented. Recent works propose to take ...

English: cardiovascular diseases account for more than one third of the annual mortal rate in western countries. Although AF does not directly lead to mortality is pointed as one of the possible causes of stroke. Recent ...

[ANGLÈS] Our aim in this project is to study the spatio-temporal structures present in EEG epilepsy record- ings to uncover dynamic patterns that could be of use in the Source Localization problem, among other applications. ...

This thesis explores the application of a deep learning computer vision approach for grasp classification in order to improve hand prosthesis control. First, a criterion based on prehensile human hand is adopted and object ...

[ANGLÈS] Brain computer interface technologies aim, among a number of possible goals, to help people with motor and speech disabilities to communicate through a computer using the electrical activity in the brain, allowing ...

[ANGLÈS] Rapid advances in miniaturization and automated health control point to the widespread use of implanted micro-scale sensors in the near future, which will measure physiological conditions and report back data ...
