A unique system for data collection, the provision of evidence and processing was designed. The system leads to the simplification of the research, to the possibility of extending the investigation in the field and to the survey of forest visit trends in the long term. The approach will enable...
According to this view, the concept of authenticity is considered in relation to the digital subject, i.e., the digital self, which is rethought as a much more complex entity than just a collection of data points and at the same time, not quite a mere extension of the self. More ...
The contribution of somatosensation to locomotor deficits in below-knee amputees (BKAs) has not been fully explored. Unilateral disruption of plantar sensation causes able-bodied individuals to adopt locomotor characteristics that resemble those of unilateral BKAs, suggesting that restoring somatosensation...
Please note that accountability is an important concept in science that is a point of emphasis these days as research misconduct appears to be on the rise. It is critical that scien- tists be aware of the importance of research integrity from the lab bench to publication. Not only should ...

Health researchers have increasingly adopted the use of geographic information systems (GIS) for analyzing environments in which people live and how those environments affect health. One aspect of this research that is often overlooked is the quality and detail of the road data and whether or not ...
Blindness has evolved repeatedly in cave-dwelling organisms, and many hypotheses have been proposed to explain this observation, including both accumulation of neutral loss-of-function mutations and adaptation to darkness. Investigating the loss of sight in cave dwellers presents an opportunity to underst...
Fülöp (in Hetényi et al. 1968) referred some brachiopods and a Subastieria sp. from the nearby Dezső Rezső Valley, and considered its age late Valanginian. No picture, description or repository data are available of this record; therefore, it is not included in this study. Buj...
Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) models have been adopted in a wide range of healthcare applications, from medical image computing and analysis to continuous health monitoring and management. Recent data have demonstrated a clear trend that AI/ML model sizes, as well as their ...
