Predicting mid-air gestural interaction with public displays based on audience behaviour

Knowledge about the expected interaction duration and expected distance from which users will interact with public displays can be useful in many ways.

Recognizing the Emergent and Submerged Iceberg of the Celiac Disease: ITAMA Project — Global Strategy Protocol

Coeliac disease (CD) is frequently underdiagnosed with a consequent heavy burden in terms of morbidity and health care costs. Diagnosis of CD is based on the evaluation of symptoms and anti-transglutaminase antibodies IgA (TGA-IgA) levels, with values above a tenfold increase being the basis of the biopsy-free diagnostic approach suggested by present guidelines.

Smartphone-Based Evaluation of Postural Stability in Parkinson’s Disease Patients During Quiet Stance

Postural instability is one of the most troublesome motor symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). It impairs patients’ quality of life and results in high risk of falls.

Child-display interaction: exploring avatar-based touchless gestural interfaces

During the last decade, touchless gestural interfaces have been widely studied as one of the most promising interaction paradigms in the context of pervasive displays. In particular, avatars and silhouettes have been proved to be effective in communicating the touchless gestural interactivity supported by displays.

Elicitation and evaluation of zoom gestures for touchless interaction with desktop displays

Touchless gestural interaction has been widely studied and adopted in many contexts. Furthermore, the growing availability of low-cost enabling devices, such as Kinect or Leap Motion, boosted up the interest in such interaction both for commercial and scientific purposes, both for large public displays and for personal displays.

A REST-based Framework to Support Non-Invasive and Early Coeliac Disease Diagnosis

The health sector has traditionally been one of the early adopters of databases, from the most simple Electronic Health Record (formerly Computer-Based Patient Record) systems in use in general practice, hospitals and intensive care units to big data, multidata based systems used to support diagnosis and care decisions.
