In the ever-evolving world of fashion, building the perfect outfit can be a challenge. We propose a fashion recommendation system, which we call Visual Search, that uses computer vision and deep learning to ensure a coordinated set of fashion recommendations. The system allows users to upload a single photo of their outfit, where a pretrained YOLO model, further fine-tuned on a dataset of labeled clothing items...
In the ever-evolving world of fashion, building the perfect outfit can be a challenge. We propose a fashion recommendation system, which we call Visual Search, that uses computer vision and deep learning to ensure that it has a co-ordinated set of fashion recommendations. It looks at photos of incomplete outfits, recognizes existing items, and suggests the most compatible missing piece. At the heart of our syst...
Pain is an entity that has accompanied human beings since the beginning of their existence. Neuropathic pain, induced by alterations in the somatosensory system, has its own characteristics and treatment. Gabapentinoids are antiepileptic drugs that show marked similarities to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), one of the main inhibitory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS). Since the discovery of ...
The link between synaptic plasticity and reorganization of brain activity in health and disease remains a scientific challenge. We examined this question in Parkinson's disease (PD) where functional up-regulation of postsynaptic D2 receptors has been documented while its significance at the neural activity level has never been identified. We investigated cortico-subcortical plasticity in PD using the oculomotor...
Este segundo volume inclui as biografias de Pertinaz, Dídio Juliano, Setímio Severo, Pescénio Nigro, Clódio Albino, Caracala, Geta, Macrino, Diadúmeno e Heliogábalo. Assim, levando em conta a acessão de Pertinaz ao trono imperial e a morte de Heliogábalo, o volume abrange o período da História de Roma que vai de 192 a 222 d.C. Se levarmos em conta o nascimento de Pertinaz (122 d.C.), o tempo abrangido por este ...
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks are an emerging technology, useful not only for the military, but also for public and civil purposes. Their versatility provides advantages in situations where an existing network cannot support all requirements of its users, either because of an exceptionally big number of users, or because of the failure of one or more ground base stations. Networks of UAVs can reinforce...
Abstract: In order to develop computer tools for speech therapy that reliably classify speech productions, there is a need for speech production corpora that characterize the target population in terms of age, gender, and native language. Apart from including correct speech productions, in order to characterize the target population, the corpora should also include samples from people with speech sound disorder...
Games are no longer just an entertainment activity. Various games are being adopted in different fields, such as psychology, education, and healthcare. Their usage requires professionals to be capable of categorizing games to take the most advantage out of them. Therefore, we argue that a uniform classification for games can facilitate and improve the work on numerous investigations that focus on the usage of g...
Impulse control disorders (ICD) may occur in Parkinson's disease (PD) although it remains to be understood if such deficits may occur even in the absence of a formal ICD diagnosis. Moreover, studies addressing simultaneously distinct neurobehavioral domains, such as cognitive, proactive and reactive motor impulsivity, are still lacking. Here, we aimed to investigate if reactive, proactive and cognitive impulsiv...
