The effects of competition and implicit power motive on men's testosterone, emotion recognition, and aggression

Author(s): Vongas JG; Al Hajj R;

A contribution to a special issue on Hormones and Human Competition. We investigated the effects of competition on men's testosterone levels and assessed whether androgen reactivity was associated with subsequent emotion recognition and reactive and pro ...

Winter's Topography, Law, and the Colonial Legal Imaginary in British Columbia

Author(s): Matthew P Unger

This article examines how images of nature, weather, and topography disclose a politics of recognition (who is visible/invisible) invested in a burgeoning criminal justice milieu, where punishment of wrongdoing became increasingly racialized in British Colu ...

Invariant Pattern Recognition with Log-Polar Transform and Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet-Fourier Features

Author(s): Chen G; Krzyzak A;

In this paper, we propose a novel method for 2D pattern recognition by extracting features with the log-polar transform, the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT), and the 2D fast Fourier transform (FFT2). Our new method is invariant to translation, r ...

Disturbance cues function as a background risk cue but not as an associative learning cue in tadpoles

Author(s): Rivera-Hernández IAE; Crane AL; Pollock MS; Ferrari MCO;

Chemical information has an important role in the sensory ecology of aquatic species. For aquatic prey, chemical cues are a vital source of information related to predator avoidance and risk assessment. For instance, alarm cues are released by prey that hav ...

Entropy-Based Variational Scheme with Component Splitting for the Efficient Learning of Gamma Mixtures

Author(s): Bourouis S; Pawar Y; Bouguila N;

Finite Gamma mixture models have proved to be flexible and can take prior information into account to improve generalization capability, which make them interesting for several machine learning and data mining applications. In this study, an efficient Gamma ...

Human Activity Recognition: A Comparative Study to Assess the Contribution Level of Accelerometer, ECG, and PPG Signals

Author(s): Afzali Arani MS; Costa DE; Shihab E;

Inertial sensors are widely used in the field of human activity recognition (HAR), since this source of information is the most informative time series among non-visual datasets. HAR researchers are actively exploring other approaches and different sources ...

Complementary variable- and person-centered approaches to the dimensionality of burnout among fire station workers

Author(s): Sandrin E; Morin AJS; Fernet C; Gillet N;

This research relies on variable- and person-centered approaches to illustrate how each of these approaches may help to improve our understanding of the dimensionality of the burnout construct. Both studies (Study 1: N = 247 administrative and technical emp ...

On the Impact of Biceps Muscle Fatigue in Human Activity Recognition.

Author(s): Elshafei M, Costa DE, Shihab E

Nowadays, Human Activity Recognition (HAR) systems, which use wearables and smart systems, are a part of our daily life. Despite the abundance of literature in the area, little is known about the impact of muscle fatigue on these systems' performance. I ...

Towards Detecting Biceps Muscle Fatigue in Gym Activity Using Wearables.

Author(s): Elshafei M, Shihab E

Fatigue is a naturally occurring phenomenon during human activities, but it poses a bigger risk for injuries during physically demanding activities, such as gym activities and athletics. Several studies show that bicep muscle fatigue can lead to various inj ...

A Benchmark of Data Stream Classification for Human Activity Recognition on Connected Objects.

Author(s): Khannouz M; Glatard T;

This paper evaluates data stream classifiers from the perspective of connected devices, focusing on the use case of Human Activity Recognition. We measure both the classification performance and resource consumption (runtime, memory, and power) of five usua ...
