Adaptations for TAP in a Long-Term Care Setting [PDF]
Innovation in Aging, 2020 Abstract One of the most difficult aspects of caring for people living with dementia is managing neuropsychologic symptoms and functional decline. Although there are hundreds of efficacious non-pharmacologic interventions tested in homes, few are adapted for and tested in long-term care.

Amplitude setting and dopamine response of finger tapping and gait are related in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Abstract Movement amplitude setting is affected early in Parkinson’s disease (PD), clinically manifesting as bradykinesia. Our objective was to determine if amplitude setting of upper limb bimanual movements and bipedal gait are similarly modulated in PD.

Optimal Tap Setting of Voltage Regulation Transformers Using Batch Reinforcement Learning [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2020 In this paper, we address the problem of setting the tap positions of load tap changers (LTCs) for voltage regulation in radial power distribution systems under uncertain load dynamics. The objective is to find a policy to determine the tap positions that only uses measurements of voltage magnitudes and topology information so as to minimize the ...
