Laterality effects in sub-clinical neck pain examined in goal-directed upper limb aiming movements
(2020-09-01)Subclinical neck pain (SCNP) is defined as recurrent pain and stiffness in the neck for which individuals have not yet sought treatment. Prior studies have shown that individuals with SCNP have altered cerebellar processing. ... -
Leadership based multi-objective optimization with applications in energy systems.
(2013-12-01)Multi-objective optimization metaheuristics (MOMs) are powerful methods for solving complex optimization problems but can require a large number of function evaluations to find optimal solutions. Thus, an efficient ... -
Leakage-corrected discontinuity factors for a second-generation Th-Pu pressure-tube SCWR.
(2014-08-01)The neutron flux throughout a reactor core should be calculated, ideally, by solving the neutron transport equation for a highly detailed geometric model of the core. Since this is computationally impractical, approximate ... -
Learning image enhancement and object localization using evolutionary algorithms
(2014-03-01)Imaging and image processing have been used in variety of applications, such as medical, astronomy, forensic, and industry. Numerous techniques have been proposed to solve speci c problems faced in particular applications ... -

Leveraging vehicular cloud computing through location and request prediction
(2023-04-01)In recent years, the implementation of Vehicular Ad-hoc networks (VANET) has been acknowledged as a promising solution for monitoring road conditions. Despite the many benefits they can bring to society, the growing demand ... -
Lexichrome: Text Construction and Lexical Discovery with Word-Color Associations Using Interactive Visualization
(ACM, 2020-07-03)Based on word-color associations from a comprehensive, crowdsourced lexicon, we present Lexichrome: a web application that explores the popular perception of relationships between English words and eleven basic color terms ... -
Li-ion battery electrode state of charge and degradation monitoring using battery casing as the reference electrode
(2022-08-01)Lithium-ion battery (LIB) internal state such as state of charge (SOC), electrode capacity, and available lithium-ion monitoring is helpful for effective battery degradation monitoring. Monitoring these internal parameters ... -
Life cycle assessment of conventional and alternative fuels for vehicles
(2018-08-01)For the near future, it is important that vehicles are run by alternative fuels. Before we can go ahead with the new alternatives, it is crucial that a comprehensive life cycle analysis is carried out for fuels. In this ... -
Life with HIV in a suburban community: an exploration of experiences pertaining to health and social care service access
(2017-03-01)Literature examines HIV within urban or rural contexts; the suburban gradient is not sufficiently described, despite how an overwhelming proportion of Canadians live in this form of community. This inquiry investigated how ... -
Linear regression model for continuous non-invasive blood pressure estimation for an ICU setting
(2021-11-01)Continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring in critically ill patients is crucially important for clinicians. The gold standard intra-arterial method is complicated and contraindicated. Current pulse transit time (PTT)-based ... -
