Deep-seeded Clustering for Emotion Recognition from Wearable Physiological Sensors [PDF]
According to the circumplex model of affect, an emotional response could characterized by a level of pleasure (valence) and intensity (arousal). As it reflects on the autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, modern wearable wristbands can record non-invasively and during our everyday lives peripheral end-points of this response.

Evolutionarily conserved human targets of adenosine to inosine RNA editing [PDF]
A-to-I RNA editing by ADARs is a post-transcriptional mechanism for expanding the proteomic repertoire. Genetic recoding by editing was so far observed for only a few mammalian RNAs that are predominantly expressed in nervous tissues. However, as these editing targets fail to explain the broad and severe phenotypes of ADAR1 knockout mice, additional ...

Optimization of Movement: A Dynamical Systems Approach to Movement Systems as Emergent Phenomena.
The term "movement system" has been defined as "represent(ing) the collection of systems (cardiovascular, pulmonary, endocrine, integumentary, nervous, and musculoskeletal) that interact to move the body or its component parts."5 Although we do not ...

Matrix metalloproteinases as new targets in Alzheimer's disease: Opportunities and Challenges [PDF]
Although matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are implicated in the regulation of numerous physiological processes, evidences of their pathological roles have also been obtained in the last decades, making MMPs attractive therapeutic targets for several diseases.

Network Analyses and Nervous System Disorders [PDF]
Network analyses in nervous system disorders involves constructing and analyzing anatomical and functional brain networks from neuroimaging data to describe and predict the clinical syndromes that result from neuropathology. A network view of neurological disease and clinical syndromes facilitates accurate quantitative characterizations and ...
