Carhart notch in otosclerosis: relevant finding or pure curiosity? An imaging a...

Objective:  To assess the prevalence of Carhart notch (CN) using three distinct audiometric criteria, explore its association with radiological staging and assess its predictive value for postoperative audiometric outcomes following stapes surgery. Study Design: Retrospective observational. Methods: Adult patients who underwent stapes surgery for otosclerosis (2017- 2024) were included. Pre and postoperative au...

Deliverable 3.4: Medical terminology. HEREDITARY Project

This report outlines a methodology that addresses both conceptual and linguistic dimensions of terminology with the prime aim to enhance knowledge representation and promote informed communication within the medical domain, especially for the diseases under study in HEREDITARY. Foundational to this initiative is an approach that merges terminological theory with practical application. The theoretical underpinni...

BATS-PT: assessing portuguese masked language models in lexico-semantic analogy...

This paper presents BATS-PT, the manual translation of the lexicographic portion of the Bigger Analogy Test Set (BATS) to European Portuguese. BATS-PT covers ten types of lexicosemantic analogies and can be used for assessing word embeddings and language models. Following this, the dataset is showcased while assessing two pretrained language models for Portuguese, BERTimbau and Albertina, in two tasks: analogy ...

Considering that the public health sector has been considered as a key stakeholder in climate action, it seems important to understand what interventions are carried out globally by trusted professionals such as nurses engaged in health promotion and environmental health in optimizing the health of individuals, families, and communities toward the dissemination of lifestyle decarbonization and guidance on healt...

Physical computing instrument: designing a gestural interface for musical expre...

The use of the studio as a composition process using acoustic, analog, and digital instruments have been the basis of my artistic practice. This process promotes the interaction of the different elements that make up the studio to favor composition through timbre as musical material. This studio use has suffered constraints due to my need on adding new composition materials. My doctoral project aims to respond ...

A gestural interface for real-time composition: concepts and implementation

The use of the studio as a composition process using acoustic, analog, and digital instruments have been the basis of my artistic practice. This process promotes the interaction for different elements that make up the studio to favor composition through timbre as musical material. The way I’ve been using my studio has suffered constraints due to my need to add new sound materials for my composition. This Ph.D. ...
