Rational design of a material for rapid colorimetric Fe2+ detection
(Elsevier, 2016-10-05)
We report on the rational design of a novel TiO2 based screen-printed material suitable for sensitive and selective detection of iron ions in water. This includes the synthesis and characterization of large mesoporous TiO2 ...
TandemTable: Supporting Conversations and Language Learning Using a Multi-Touch Digital Table
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2015-06-03)
We present TandemTable, a multi-touch tabletop system designed to break down communication barriers between partners, with a special focus on supporting those who are learning languages. The design was guided by a grounding ...
Using Visual Analytics of Heart Rate Variation to Aid in Diagnostics
(CEUR Workshop Proceedings, 2016-06-07)
We present an interactive visualization tool for exploring RR interval data (the time between consecutive heart beats) to support diagnostics. An RR interval sequence diagram allows us to reduce hours of data into a general ...
Progressive Learning of Topic Modeling Parameters: A Visual Analytics Framework
(IEEE, 2017-08-29)
Topic modeling algorithms are widely used to analyze the thematic composition of text corpora but remain difficult to interpret and adjust. Addressing these limitations, we present a modular visual analytics framework, ...
Perceptual Biases in Font Size as a Data Encoding
(IEEE, 2017-07-04)
Many visualizations, including word clouds, cartographic labels, and word trees, encode data within the sizes of fonts. While font size can be an intuitive dimension for the viewer, using it as an encoding can introduce ...
Saliency Deficit and Motion Outlier Detection in Animated Scatterplots
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2019-05-04)
We report the results of a crowdsourced experiment that measured the accuracy of motion outlier detection in multivariate, animated scatterplots. The targets were outliers either in speed or direction of motion, and were ...
Multi-readout logic gate for selective metal ions detection in parts per billion levels
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2016-07-18)
Optical sensors utilizing visual responses for the identification of metal ions require reliable molecular systems able to operate selectively in multicomponent solutions. Herein, we report a water-soluble terpyridyl-based ...
Elucidation of the lipid degradation process in soft tissue and fluid during decomposition, in the presence and absence of insects.
(2014-08-01)
Decomposition has been extensively studied in the presence of insects, however
the process in the absence of insects has been considerably less documented. In this
study, the decomposition process was compared between ...
The conjugation and evaluation of hydrophobic small molecules to trazole-linked siRNAs
(2014-08-01)
According to the Human Development Index, it is estimated that all cancer cases will rise from 12.7 million cases in 2008 to 22.2 million by 2030. Traditional therapies, including surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, ...
Computational and laboratory investigations of a model of blood droplet flight for forensic applications
(2014-01-01)
Game developers strive to maximize immersion and engagement,
to emotionally involve the audience in their material. One technique
used to increase engagement is the development of new technologies,
such as Stereoscopic ...
