Contrast affects stimulus detection in natural scenes
Lopes, Gabriel; Tavares, Mara; Mendonça, CatarinaHow can we predict if a brief stimulus will be detected or perceived when embedded in a dynamic natural scene, such as those we encounter in our daily lives? This is a complex problem, with several approaches to it. Here, we were interested in determining the minimum luminance contrast to the background scene required to achieve detection and shape perception. To investigate this, we used natural videos with br...

The Regulation of Necropolitics: Governmental Responses to COVID-19 in Brazil a...
Cueto, Marcos; Neelakantan, Vivek; Lopes, GabrielWe draw on Cameroonian philosopher Achille Mbembe’s concept of necropolitics to examine government responses to the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil and India, two middle-income nations not commonly compared. The article describes the role played by President Jair Bolsonaro and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in aggravating the pandemic. Bolsonaro scorned medical advice and framed COVID-19 as a “littl...

Martins, Alexandre Duarte; Fernandes, Orlando; Oliveira, Rafael; Bilro, Vitor; Lopes, Gabriel; Rego, António Maia; Parraça, José A.The purpose of this study was to calculate the effects of exercise programs on phase angle (PhA) in older people. A systematic review was undertaken in multiple electronic databases in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses statement guidelines for the purposes of selecting randomized controlled trials that measured the effects of the exercise programs on PhA in o...
História da arte no desenho industrial: imagens fantasmas
Gasparetto, Débora Aita; Lucio, Isadora Aita; Wurzel, Noam; Silva, Cristielle Luise Rodrigues; Roberts, Guilherme Centeno; Oderich, Ana LúciaA publicação reúne artigos e relatórios de projetos desenvolvidos de 2016 a 2019 na Disciplina História da Arte I, ministrada pela Profa Dra Débora Aita Gasparetto no Curso de Desenho Industrial da UFSM. O Bio condutor dos textos é o Atlas Mnemosyne, de Aby Warburg (2010) bem como e os conceitos de sintoma e anacronismo, explorados por Georges Didi-Hubermann (2013, 2015). A proposta é estimular os alunos a pens...
AUTOMOTIVE: a case study on AUTOmatic multiMOdal drowsiness detecTIon for smart...
Esteves, Telma; Pinto, João Ribeiro; Ferreira, Pedro M.; Costa, Pedro Amaro; Rodrigues, Lourenço Abrunhosa; Antunes, Inês; Lopes, Gabriel; gamito, pedroAs technology and artificial intelligence conquer a place under the spotlight in the automotive world, driver drowsiness monitoring systems have sparked much interest as a way to increase safety and avoid sleepiness-related accidents. Such technologies, however, stumble upon the observation that each driver presents a distinct set of behavioral and physiological manifestations of drowsiness, thus rendering its ...

Lopes, Gabriel(Prêmio Oswaldo Cruz de Teses 2017) Integrante da coleção História e Saúde da Editora Fiocruz, o livro desenvolve uma narrativa histórica de chegada, alastramento e erradicação do Anopheles gambiae, mosquito que teve provável origem em Dacar, capital do Senegal, e chegou ao Brasil pelo Rio Grande do Norte. O vetor causou uma epidemia de malária sem precedentes no Brasil no início dos anos 1930 e, após esforços ...
Tabulation for multi-purpose partial parsing
Rocio, Vitor; Lopes, Gabriel; Clergerie, EricEfficient partial parsing systems (chunkers) are urgently required by various natural language application areas as these parsers always produce partially parsed text even when the text does not fully fit existing lexica and grammars. Availability of partially parsed corpora is absolutely necessary for extracting various kinds of information that may then be fed into those systems, increasing their processing p...
