Women are more likely to experience depressive symptoms and poor quality of life during postmenopause. Physical activity is an effective strategy to improve the mental health of women in this climacteric phase. This study aimed to investigate the variation of depressive symptomatology and mood states in postmenopausal women as a function of moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) levels. The search was condu...

Tactical knowledge by decision making and motor efficiency of young football pl...

The aim of this study was to compare the tactical knowledge of young football players in different playing positions during a three-a-side small-sided game (SSG). Observational data was collected from 71 players (M = 12.16; SD = 1.55 years): 11 goalkeepers, 22 defenders, 15 midfielders, and 23 forwards. In total, 4 min of three-a-side SSGs (GR + 3 vs. 3 + GR) were recorded to assess tactical performance using a...

Predicting multiple domain queue waiting time via machine learning

This paper describes an implementation of the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) methodology for a demonstrative case of human queue waiting time prediction. We collaborated with a multiple domain (e.g., bank, pharmacies) ticket management service software development company, aiming to study a Machine Learning (ML) approach to estimate queue waiting time. A large multiple domain databas...

New operation opportunities for the solid-state transformer in smart homes: a c...

With the expansion of power electronics possibilities for smart homes, new perceptions for power control are emerging, suggesting new possibilities also for smart grids. In this prospect, the solid-state transformer (SST) has a substantial impact to interface smart homes with smart grids, guaranteeing high levels of power quality in both grid (consumed current) and load side (produced voltage). Nevertheless, as...
