MicroStrain SensorCloud. Exosite. Real-Time Data And A More Personalized Web. Advertisement As Web designers, we face a daily struggle to keep pace with advances in technology, new standards and new user expectations. We spend a large part of our working life dipping in and out of recent developments in an attempt to stay both relevant and competitive, and while this is what makes our industry so exciting to be a part of, it often becomes all too easy to get caught up in the finer details.

Responsive Web design, improved semantics and rich Web typography have all seen their fair share of the limelight over the last year, but two developments in particular mark true milestones in the maturation of the Web: “real-time data” and a more “personalized Web.” Since the arrival of the new Web, we’ve been enraptured by social media. We share links, we “follow,” we “poke,” we’ve become accustomed to it all.

Through no fault of our own, we’ve become lazy users. Welcome to the new era. Real-Time Data Question: What do Google Analytics and printed newspapers have in common? (al) LASR - Longitudinal Analysis and Self Registration. LASR - Data Mining Tool for Rehabilitation Engineering Data Xiaofeng Wang1,2, Jiayang Sun1 and Kath Bogie1,3 Case Western Reserve University1, The Cleveland Clinic2 and Cleveland FES Center3 Development of medical and computer technology in the last two decades have enabled us to collect huge amounts of data in both spatial and temporal dimensions.

Our research is concerned with the spatial-temporal data mining motivated by analyzing data from our "Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation" experiment. . (1) data segmentation for separating heterogeneous data and for distinguishing outliers, (2) automatic approaches for spatial and temporal data registration, (3) statistical smoothing mapping for identifying "activated'' regions based on generalized false discovery rate (FDR) controlled p-maps/movies from "large-p-small-n'' data sets.

Our new procedure should be applicable to other types of spatial-temporal data sets beyond those from the NMES experiment. Reference: X. KM Bogie, RJ Triolo. Softwear. Drawdio! - Download files. LilyPond. A Computer Chip With a Brain’s ‘Plasticity’ - Ideas Market. By Christopher Shea Unlike what happens in computer-chip circuits, electrical connections between neurons in the brain don’t simply turn on and off: Low-level electrical current—channels of ions—continue to flow, even when a neuron isn’t actively firing. This strengthens neuron networks, and is one way the brain changes (and learns). Neuron connections can also deteriorate, if the electrical flows wane. A Harvard-MIT medical-science lab has now, for the first time, created a chip that can mimic this aspect of the brain’s malleability, or “plasticity.”

The connections between its transistors are not digital (on/off) but analog, with subtle gradations that act like ion channels. The chips will be useful in modeling certain brain functions, such as visual processing, their creators say, and will act in a more realistic fashion than computer models do.
