Due to the increasing computational capacity of embedded systems, it has now become possible to monitor a given area efficiently by using a mass of low-cost sensors. However, the collection and analysis of such big data is still an open question from the perspective of energy efficiency. In this article will show a concept which covers the whole lifecycle of such huge scale sensor networks. We introduce a deployment and maintenance solution for uncharted areas. We present a method for gathering the measured data of each sensor and we will show a system for analyzing and visualizing the collected data.

Emerging telemedicine frameworks with dynamically adaptive content management systems deliver the proper information at the time and place, when and where it is needed. Aggregated telemedicine sensory data is customized and dynamically presented to the suitable recipient. Such systems and methods have already been in some way available for scientific and industrial application. This presented paper extends the underlying adaptive eHealth content management methodology to the coherent structural implementation of weighted majority voting algorithm. This cognitive human-machine interaction drives the targeted dynamically adaptive eHealth content management system in runtime mode. Telemedicine embraces information technology and telecommunication solutions for the sake of serving healthcare services at remote locations outside of the premises of classical medical institutions. These systems produce and process exponentially growing amount of sensory data. Moreover, they support real-time processing which requires a dynamically scalable and fault tolerant architecture. Utilizing cognitive services, the suitable methods determine the adequate system landscape delivering the suitable medical information from the collected body-sensory data. The underlying methodology utilizes correlation-data between different factors, thus invoking eHealth customizable cognitive content management system. The paper also demonstrates the corresponding sociotechnical environment, the applied cognitive infocommunicational methodologies and the related adaptive technological elements. Finally, the future improvement potential and also the challenges of the presented dynamically adaptive eHealth content management system are analyzed in the paper thoroughly.

We developed an application for the Android platform to test reaction times to auditory stimuli on mobile devices. During tests, users were asked to respond as quickly as possible to auditory events provided through headphone playback, and to also identify the directions of those events based on stereo panning. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of data (i.e. response times in seconds and error rates) collected through controlled supervised experiments as opposed to a crowdsourcing based solution. It is demonstrated that in some respects, crowdsourced data and laboratory data show similar results within their own category, but that at the same time a statistical comparison between the two measurement configurations is difficult due to the significant amount of noisy (outlier) data in the crowdsourced case.

Information technology tools are gaining increasing importance in surgical skill training and assessment, due to the need of objective and repeatable measurement of performance. This is especially true for Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS), where complex tool manipulation should be mastered employing artificial phantoms and simulators - either in the case of manual or robotic laparoscopy. In this paper, a laparoscopic box trainer is introduced with an advanced phantom for prostatectomy surgical simulation, which contributes to medical staff training and skill assessment. In order to increase the gradient of the relevant learning curve, high fidelity tissue models were implemented, following a new design. Qualitative and quantitative experimental analysis were performed involving 14 subjects that showed good acceptance of the proposed training device. Besides the usability aspects, the phantom has several advantageous properties through its affordable, repeatable manufacturing technique of the moulded silicone organs. This study reports an interim phase of our research that is aimed at the development of an instrumented, highly realistic surgical training and skill assessment framework for evaluating and improving manual and robotic MIS surgery.

The MPT network layer multipath communication library-which was proposed to be a possible new basis for the future cognitive info-communication-is capable to use multiple communication channels to create an UDP tunnel which uses GRE tunnel protocol. On the other hand, Multipath TCP uses a special kernel module which creates multiple TCP sub-flows to aggregate network throughput. In this paper we used twelve 100Mbps speed channels to compare the aggregation capabilities of these two multipath communication techniques. Different scenarios were used: we measured both IPv4 and IPv6 as underlying and encapsulation protocols. In all cases, we used one to twelve channels to measure the aggregation capabilities with the iperf network measurement tool and also with HTTP download.

We describe here a simple, inexpensive and effective system for simultaneous evaluation of a subject's driving ability and spatial auditory and visual perception and attention. It consists of a commercial steering wheel and virtual glasses and a program for driving on a two-lane road with curvatures at about 100 km/h speed, and simultaneously reacting by pressing two buttons attached to the steering wheel to randomly delivered uni- and bilateral auditory signals via earphones and light dots appearing in the peripheral visual field. Three different difficulty levels of the task were applied in randomized counterbalanced order, each session of 2 min duration. The results of 25 young (17-45 years) and 20 elderly (47-96 years) healthy participants demonstrate the tendency for simultaneous right side spatial perceptual/attentional bias and the left side driving bias especially in the elderly participants.

The intent of our study, conducted on a sample of 98 psychiatric outpatients, was to explore the correlations between executive functions and traits of temperament and character. Executive functions were assessed through Frontal Assessment Battery and the traits of temperament and character using the Temperament and Character Inventory. From our sample, a significant link between certain traits of temperament and character and a lower efficiency of some specific executive functions and higher efficiency of others clearly emerge. The interpretation that we propose of the data which emerges from the study appears to be coherent with a modern vision of the mental phenomena which seem to achieve non linear interactions among the psychological, biological and relational dimensions which are characteristic of the human being. The complex system of interactions between brain, mind and relations described could be conceptualized as a process embodied and situated in a specific environment, not separable from the body and relationships. The knowledge of this embodied process is important for grounding the "affective computing" direction research. It is necessary to increase the size of the sample group in order to be able to generalize the statements, program experiments finalized at verifying the predictions of the model.

Digital videos play an important role today: they are used for entertainment, for communication and for information exchange. Within the internet, there are many sources that provide video content in different ways. Videos can be streamed in real-time or downloaded for local usage. In all these scenarios, video content is exchanged using some sort of binary serialization format. Consequently, compatible decoders are required if the binary representation is to be restored. In our work, we use an abstraction mechanism that allows for referencing and accessing digital video content in an interoperable way. As the abstraction also is supposed to be human-comprehensible, the abstraction constitutes the basis for describing the exchange of video information among humans and devices in a unified manner. In this paper, we will explain how the abstraction can be used to specify general video communication scenarios. Furthermore, we introduce a Java library that encapsulates decoding as well as transmitting functionalities in order to provide video content using our proposed abstraction, regardless of how and where the video is actually stored. We will further show how the library can be used to implement video communication scenarios in a straightforward way.

This paper proposes an original methodology designed to single out the speaker's social signals expressing either honesty or anxiety induced by his awareness of being suspected of deceit. 24 participants were randomly assigned to one of the three following experimental conditions (namely A, B and C), manipulated during a face-to-face interview. In condition A, participants could win an undeserved resource, but only by deceiving by dissimulation the researcher. In condition B, participants could win a resource they deserved, but only by persuading their interviewer they were not deceiving her. In condition C (control), researchers awarded a participant with a resource they deserved. All participants in condition A decided not to dissimulate. All participants in condition B debated for earning the resource they deserved. On the base of videos unobtrusively recorded during interactions of researcher-participant dyads, interviews were analyzed both by a multimodal analysis of face-to-face communication and by F.A.C.S. analysis. Social signals detected during honest communication (condition A) significantly differed from social signals shown during defensive communication (condition B). In order to contribute to the study of further behavioral signals of dissimulation, the paper discusses the importance of a finegrained detection of social signals of honesty and fear of being suspected of deceit.
