  • Mapping life expectancy loss in Barcelona in 2020 

    Puig Oriol, Xavier; Ginebra Molins, Josep (2023-05-04)
    Article
    Open Access
    We use a Bayesian spatio-temporal model, first to smooth small-area initial life expectancy estimates inBarcelona for 2020, and second to predict what small-area life expectancy would have been in 2020 inabsence of covid-19 ...

  • Axisymmetric smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics 

    García Senz, Domingo; Wissing, Robert; Cabezón Gómez, Rubén Martín; Vurgun, Eda; Linares Herreros, María Paz (Oxford University Press, 2023-01-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Many astrophysical and terrestrial scenarios involving magnetic fields can be approached in axial geometry. Although the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique has been successfully extended to magneto-hydrodynamics ...

  • Variable selection for meaningful clustering of multitopic territorial data 

    Angerri Torredeflot, Xavier; Gibert, Karina (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06-26)
    Article
    Open Access
    This paper proposes a new methodology to improve territorial cohesion in clustering processes where many variables from different topics are considered. Clustering techniques provide added value to identify typologies, but ...

    Martínez Piñeiro, Alicia; Lucente, Giuseppe; Hernández Pérez, María; Cortés Martínez, Jordi; Arbex Bassols, Andrea; Pérez de la Ossa, Natalia; Ramos Fransi, Alba; Almendrote Muñoz, Miriam; Millán Torné, Mònica; Gomis Cortina, Meritxell; Dorado, Laura; Castaño Duque, Carlos; Remollo Friedemann, Sebastián; Cuadras Collsamata, Patricia; Garrido Pla, Alicia; Guanyabens Buscà, Nicolau; López Cancio, Elena; Coll Canti, Jaume; Dávalos Errando, Antoni (Ovid Technologies Wolters Kluwer -American Heart Association, 2023-06-14)
    Article
    Open Access
    Background Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) may add substantial prognostic value in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and contribute to the selection of patients that may benefit from revascularization therapies ...

  • Effectively integrating research argumentation in syllabus learning: A case study of reading journal articles in four fourth-year engineering fluid mechanics courses 

    Gámez Montero, Pedro Javier; Rodero de Lamo, Lourdes (SAGE publishing, 2023-08-10)
    Article
    Open Access
    In an emerging trend in engineering education students are engaged in the scientific discovery process through reading about research published in articles rather than textbooks. A research-based and curriculum-oriented ...

  • Row mixture-based clustering with covariates for ordinal responses 

    Preedalikit, Kemmawadee; Fernández Martínez, Daniel; Liu, Ivy; McMillan, Louise; Nai Ruscone, Marta; Costilla, Roy (2023-07-22)
    Article
    Open Access
    Existing methods can perform likelihood-based clustering on a multivariate data matrix of ordinal data, using finite mixtures to cluster the rows (observations) of the matrix. These models can incorporate the main effects ...

  • MSMpred: interactive modelling and prediction of individual evolution via multistate models 

    Garmendia Bergés, Leire; Cortés Martínez, Jordi; Gómez Melis, Guadalupe (Springer Nature, 2023-05-24)
    Article
    Open Access
    Background: Modelling the course of a disease regarding severe events and identifying prognostic factors is of great clinical relevance. Multistate models (MSM) can be used to describe diseases or processes that change ...

  • Modeling SARS-CoV-2 true infections in Catalonia through a digital twin

    Article
    Open Access
    A dynamic view of the evolution of the infections of SARS-CoV-2 in Cataloniausing a Digital Twin approach that forecasts the true infection curve ispresented. The forecast model incorporates the vaccination process, ...

  • Fitted avatars: automatic skeleton adjustment for self-avatars in virtual reality 

    Pontón Martínez, José Luis; Ceballos Inza, Víctor; Acosta Argueta, Lesly María; Ríos Jerez, Alejandro; Monclús Lahoya, Eva; Pelechano Gómez, Núria (2023-07-06)
    Article
    Open Access
    In the era of the metaverse, self-avatars are gaining popularity, as they can enhance presence and provide embodiment when a user is immersed in Virtual Reality. They are also very important in collaborative Virtual Reality ...

  • The Chebyshev center as an alternative to the analytic center in the feasibility pump 

    Baena Mirabete, Daniel; Castro Pérez, Jordi (2023-06-07)
    Article
    Open Access
    As a heuristic for obtaining feasible points of mixed integer linear problems, the feasibility pump (FP) generates two sequences of points: one of feasible solutions for the relaxed linear problem; and another of integer ...

  • An exact approach for the reliable fixed-charge location problem with capacity constraints 

    Albareda Sambola, Maria; Landete, Mercedes; Monge Ivars, Juan Francisco; Sainz Pardo, José Luis (2023-11-16)
    Article
    Open Access
    Introducing capacities in the reliable fixed charge location problem is a complex task since successive failures might yield in high facility overloads. Ideally, the goal consists in minimizing the total cost while keeping ...
