description: The relationship between galaxy star formation rates (SFR) and stellar masses ($M_\ast$) is re-examined using a mass-selected sample of $\sim$62,000 star-forming galaxies at $z \le 1.3$ in the COSMOS 2-deg$^2$ field. Using new far-infrared photometry from $Herschel$-PACS and SPIRE and $Spitzer$-MIPS 24 $μ$m, along with derived infrared luminosities from the NRK method based on galaxies' locations in the restframe color-color diagram $(NUV - r)$ vs. $(r - K)$, we are able to more accurately determine total SFRs for our complete sample. At all redshifts, the relationship between median $SFR$ and $M_\ast$ follows a power-law at low stellar masses, and flattens to nearly constant SFR at high stellar masses. We describe a new parameterization that provides the best fit to the main sequence and characterizes the low mass power-law slope, turnover mass, and overall scaling. The turnover in the main sequence occurs at a characteristic mass of about $M_{0} \sim 10^{10} M_{\odot}$ at all redshifts. The low mass power-law slope ranges from 0.9-1.3 and the overall scaling rises in SFR as a function of $(1+z)^{4.12 \pm 0.10}$. A broken power-law fit below and above the turnover mass gives relationships of $SFR \propto M_{*}^{0.88 \pm 0.06}$ below the turnover mass and $SFR \propto M_{*}^{0.27 \pm 0.04}$ above the turnover mass. Galaxies more massive than $M_\ast \gtrsim 10^{10}\ M_{\rm \odot}$ have on average, a much lower specific star formation rate (sSFR) than would be expected by simply extrapolating the traditional linear fit to the main sequence found for less massive galaxies.

description: Wir wissen nicht viel über Richard Wagner und seine Frau Anna – nur, dass er Bahnangestellter war und begeisterter Hobbyfotograf. Alles andere können wir vermuten und durch unser Vorwissen ableiten. Im Jahre 1900 begann das Ehepaar Wagner vor Weihnachtsbaum und Geschenken per Selbstauslöser Fotos von sich zu schießen. Der gekonnt in Szene gesetzte Gabentisch sollte zu einer 44-jährigen Tradition werden. Birgit Jochens präsentiert als – Herausgeberin – in ihrem Buch „Deutsche Weihnacht. Ein Familienalbum 1900-1945“ die Fotografien von Anna und Richard Wagner. Die Bilder lassen Rückschlüsse auf die wirtschaftlichen und gesellschaftlichen Begebenheiten des jeweiligen Jahres zu. Zusammen mit zeitgenössischen Zeitungszitaten verbindet Jochens die Bildbeweise und schriftlichen Quellen, um diese in einen größeren Zusammenhang zu bringen.

description: A Josephson junction may be driven through a transition where the superconducting condensate favors an odd over an even number of electrons. At this switch in the ground-state fermion parity, an Andreev bound state crosses through the Fermi level, producing a zero-mode that can be probed by a point contact to a grounded metal. We calculate the time-dependent charge transfer between superconductor and metal for a linear sweep through the transition. One single quasiparticle is exchanged with charge $Q$ depending on the coupling energies $γ_1,γ_2$ of the metal to the Majorana operators of the zero-mode. For a single-channel point contact, $Q$ equals the electron charge $e$ in the adiabatic limit of slow driving, while in the opposite quenched limit $Q=2e\sqrt{γ_1γ_2}/(γ_1+γ_2)$ varies between $0$ and $e$. This provides a method to produce single charge-neutral quasiparticles on demand.

description: Complexity is an inherent attribute of any project. The purpose of defining and documenting complexity is to have an early warning tool allowing a project team to focus on certain areas and aspects of the project in order to prevent and alleviate future risks and issues caused by this complexity. The main contribution of this paper is to present a systematic view of complexity in project management by identifying its key attributes and classifying complexity by these attributes. A "complexity taxonomy", based on a survey of the existing complexity literature, is developed and discussed including the product, project, and external environment dimensions. We show how complexity types are described through simple real life examples and business cases. Then we develop a framework (tool) for applying the notion of complexity as an early warning tool for a project manager in order to timely foresee future risks and problems. The paper is intended for researchers in complexity, project management, information systems, technology solutions and business management, and also for information specialists, project managers, program managers, financial staff and technology directors.

description: Detection of X-rays, gamma-rays and charged particles is crucial in the situation of homeland security, medical imaging and fundamental research. The thesis introduces the background of radiation and radiation detector. Then the mechanisms of spectral broadening are discussed. Charge collection, which is the main reason that degrade the resolution, is focused in the aspect of unbalanced electron-hole movement, traps and polarization, surface recombination, and noise. This thesis also reports a simple approach of additive-assisted inverse temperature crystallization (ITC) solution method to achieve high-quality CsPbBr3 single crystal growth. The crystals grown from regular precursor solution tend to grow fastest along [002] direction, resulting in long but small crystal bars. The introduction of additive changed the growth behavior, resulting in cuboid shape and large size single crystal. The detector made of solution-grown perovskite CsPbBr3 single crystal is able to acquire energy spectra from cesium-137 (137Cs) with a resolution of 5.5% at 662 keV.

Цель работы – сравнить результаты различных методов коррекции нейрогенной дисфункции нижних мочевыводящих путей, используемых в реабилитации инвалидов в позднем периоде травматической болезни спинного мозга. Материал и методы. Проведен ретроспективный анализ 201 истории болезни пациентов в позднем периоде травматической болезни спинного мозга, поступивших на лечение в нейрохирургическое отделение ФГБУ ННПЦ МСЭ и РИ Минтруда России. Инвалидность I группы имелась у 92,1 % больных. Средняя давность травмы составила 6,9 ± 0,5 года. Выделено 4 группы пациентов по возрастанию тяжести нарушения мочеиспускания: 1-я группа – с нормоактивным детрузором (6,9 %), 2-я группа – с гипоактивным детрузором (32,3 %), 3-я группа – с гиперактивным детрузором (40,8 %), 4-я группа – с наличием эпицистостомы и постоянного уретрального катетера (19,9 %). Оценивалась эффективность проводимых в клинике ФГБУ ННПЦ МСЭ и РИ Минтруда России методов коррекции нейрогенной дисфункции нижних мочевыводящих путей – тибиальной стимуляции, электростимуляции мочевого пузыря, эндосакральных блокад с прозерином, пудентальных блокад с местными анестетиками, иглорефлексотерапии, коррекции объема мочевого пузыря. Результаты. У пациентов c травматической болезнью спинного мозга с ростом тяжести неврологических нарушений увеличивается риск развития вторичных урологических осложнений. Положительные результаты коррекции нейрогенной дисфункции нижних мочевыводящих путей были получены при проведении тибиальной стимуляции, электростимуляции мочевого пузыря и эндосакральных блокад. Выводы. Правильно подобранные методы коррекции нейрогенной дисфункции нижних мочевыводящих путей при проведении реабилитационных мероприятий позволяют улучшить качество жизни пациентов с травматической болезнью спинного мозга и снизить риск урологических осложнений. Наличие острой урологической патологии и опасения пациента, связанные с возможным изменением привычного образа жизни, ограничивают проведение коррекции.

Relativistic Jets Shine through Shocks or Magnetic Reconnection?

description: Observations of gamma-ray-bursts and jets from active galactic nuclei reveal that the jet flow is characterized by a high radiative efficiency and that the dissipative mechanism must be a powerful accelerator of non-thermal particles. Shocks and magnetic reconnection have long been considered as possible candidates for powering the jet emission. Recent progress via fully-kinetic particle-in-cell simulations allows us to revisit this issue on firm physical grounds. We show that shock models are unlikely to account for the jet emission. In fact, when shocks are efficient at dissipating energy, they typically do not accelerate particles far beyond the thermal energy, and vice versa. In contrast, we show that magnetic reconnection can deposit more than 50% of the dissipated energy into non-thermal leptons as long as the energy density of the magnetic field in the bulk flow is larger than the rest mass energy density. The emitting region, i.e., the reconnection downstream, is characterized by a rough energy equipartition between magnetic fields and radiating particles, which naturally accounts for a commonly observed property of blazar jets.

Passing as Mexican? Salvadoran Immigrants’ Economic Assimilation in the United States
Creators: name: Manzanares, Melissa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: A considerable body of literature analyzes the economic incorporation of Hispanic immigrants. However, much of this work focuses on the assimilation of Mexican immigrants and largely compares this group to host populations. Because immigrants from other Latin American countries have received less attention, it is less clear whether these groups experience incorporation differently than Mexican immigrants. Using 2000 U.S. Census and 2010 American Community Survey data, this thesis examines the economic assimilation of Salvadoran immigrants living in the United States. By comparing Salvadorans’ wages with those of Mexican immigrants and U.S. native populations, this thesis assesses the fit of dominant assimilation theories in explaining Hispanic immigrants’ incorporation. Using a synthetic cohort approach, I find that while neither Salvadorans or Mexicans generally reach parity with native-born Americans, Salvadorans have better outcomes than Mexicans. These results underscore the need to analyze differences among Hispanic immigrants and how these may affect economic outcomes.

description: È un fatto storico abbastanza risaputo che la rivoluzione ungherese del 1956 e la successiva crisi umanitaria abbiano provocato in Italia, così come nel resto dell’Europa e del mondo, un generale e animato dibattito sul piano politico e, nel contempo, un altrettanto grande moto di sgomento e di solidarietà a livello di opinione pubblica. Milioni di italiani si misero in moto, man mano che arrivavano le drammatiche notizie sugli eventi rivoluzionari d’Ungheria. Zsuzsa Szőnyi, che era emigrata da Budapest a Roma qualche anno prima e che assieme a suo marito, il pittore Mátyás Triznya, fu una sognatrice, anima e per lunghi decenni sostenitrice del famoso forum culturale per l’emigrazione ungherese in Italia, la cosiddetta „Triznya-kocsma”.

Transnational Trailblazers: The Alliance between the African National Congress Women's Section and British Anti-Apartheid Movement Women's Committee, 1980-1990
Creators: name: Cox, Laura

description: In 1980, the African National Congress (ANC) Women’s Section formed a partnership with the British Anti-Apartheid Movement (AAM) Women’s Committee in London. For a decade, the two organizations coordinated various activities that exposed the brutalities of apartheid South Africa, raised public support for the anti-apartheid movement, and spotlighted the role of Southern African women in national liberation movements. They simultaneously exchanged ideas about racial and gender inequality and challenged sexism within their affiliate organizations. This thesis argues that while the anti-apartheid movement subsumed anti-colonialist, anti-imperialist, and anti-capitalist movements, Third World and Western feminism were critical components of transnational solidarity through which women identified, debated, and ameliorated gendered struggles. Scholars have acknowledged the myriad dimensions of the anti-apartheid movement, yet feminism’s impact on the movement has become an understudied casualty of historical inquiry. This thesis concludes with a meditation on coalition building and the legacies of the anti-apartheid movement.

description: Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulation is the most important numerical tool in plasma physics. However, its long-term accuracy has not been established. To overcome this difficulty, we developed a canonical symplectic PIC method for the Vlasov-Maxwell system by discretizing its canonical Poisson bracket. A fast local algorithm to solve the symplectic implicit time advance is discovered without root searching or global matrix inversion, enabling applications of the proposed method to very large-scale plasma simulations with many, e.g., $10^{9}$, degrees of freedom. The long-term accuracy and fidelity of the algorithm enables us to numerically confirm Mouhot and Villani's theory and conjecture on nonlinear Landau damping over several orders of magnitude using the PIC method, and to calculate the nonlinear evolution of the reflectivity during the mode conversion process from extraordinary waves to Bernstein waves.

description: Many massive galaxies at the centres of relaxed galaxy clusters and groups have vast reservoirs of cool (~10,000 K) and cold (~100 K) gas. In many low redshift brightest group and cluster galaxies this gas is lifted into the hot ISM in filamentary structures, which are long lived and are typically not forming stars. Two important questions are how far do these reservoirs cool and if cold gas is abundant what is the cause of the low star formation efficiency? Heating and excitation of the filaments from collisions and mixing of hot particles in the surrounding X-ray gas describes well the optical and near infra-red line ratios observed in the filaments. In this paper we examine the theoretical properties of dense, cold clouds emitting in the far infra-red and submillimeter through the bright lines of [C II]157 μm , [O I]63 μm and CO, exposed to these energetic ionising particles. While some emission lines may be optically thick we find this is not sufficient to model the emission line ratios. Models where the filaments are supported by thermal pressure support alone also cannot account for the cold gas line ratios but a very modest additional pressure support, either from turbulence or magnetic fields can fit the observed [O I]/[C II] line ratios by decreasing the density of the gas. This may also help stabilise the filaments against collapse leading to the low rates of star formation. Finally we make predictions for the line ratios expected from cold gas under these conditions and present diagnostic diagrams for comparison with further observations. We provide our code as an Appendix.

description: The GAP package QDistRnd implements a probabilistic algorithm for finding the minimum distance of a quantum low-density parity-check code linear over a finite field GF(q). At each step several codewords are randomly drawn from a distribution biased toward smaller weights. The corresponding weights are used to update the upper bound on the distance, which eventually converges to the minimum distance of the code. While there is no performance guarantee, an empirical convergence criterion is given to estimate the probability that a minimum weight codeword has been found. In addition, a format for storing matrices associated with q-ary quantum codes is introduced and implemented via the provided import/export functions. The format, MTXE, is based on the well established MaTrix market eXchange (MTX) Coordinate format developed at NIST, and is designed for full backward compatibility with this format. Thus, MTXE files are readable by any software package which supports MTX.

description: Il presente contributo intende inserirsi nel dibattito epistemologico sulla funzione del viaggio inteso come azione complessa attraverso cui, ora si rinsaldano le relazioni fra uomo e spazio, ora si attivano processi cognitivi fondanti. In particolar modo si vuole avanzare una riflessione sulla scansione tripartita che ha nel viaggio l’esito terminale: la stasi, l’innesco, l’esperienza. Il contributo affonda le radici nei dibattiti, internazionali e nazionali, fondativi della New Cultural Geography, presupposto teorico imprescindibile per impostare un’indagine teoricamente e scientificamente fondata sul valore del soggetto nella prospettiva gnoseologica della geografia umana. Attraverso i riferimenti metodologici propri del discorso geografico che sceglie di incrociare, con intenzioni euristiche, la prospettiva letteraria, si è allora proposto un itinerario attraverso il mito, la parola sacra, la letteratura e l’esperienza al fine di rintracciare, evidenziare e annodare in seno ad un unico afflato cognitivo la tripartizione paradigmatica del viaggio, vero connettore geografico e significatore di relazioni essenziali.

description: Hawking effect was dug out of the gravitationally collapsed site forty years back when it was realised that quantum effects at the horizon could propagate outward to infinity giving rise to a thermal flux at late-times. However, the situation regarding non-asymptotic observers was never completely clear. Also, recently a debate has sprung in the community as to what would infalling observers perceive while crossing the horizon. We set out to settle this question and more at least semi-classically in the articles [arXiv:1304.2858] and [arXiv:1404.0684] with a fresh approach. We introduce a new set of coordinates that are regular everywhere, consider the adiabatic expansion of detector response and its link to the trajectory-dependent `effective' temperature/s and also local invariant observables, energy density and flux, built from renormalized stress energy tensor. This paper is a concise summary of the new procedure and the results obtained thereof.

description: Quantifying uncertainty of predictions has been identified as one way to develop more trustworthy artificial intelligence (AI) models beyond conventional reporting of performance metrics. When considering their role in a clinical decision support setting, AI classification models should ideally avoid confident wrong predictions and maximise the confidence of correct predictions. Models that do this are said to be well-calibrated with regard to confidence. However, relatively little attention has been paid to how to improve calibration when training these models, i.e., to make the training strategy uncertainty-aware. In this work we evaluate three novel uncertainty-aware training strategies comparing against two state-of-the-art approaches. We analyse performance on two different clinical applications: cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) response prediction and coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosis from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images. The best-performing model in terms of both classification accuracy and the most common calibration measure, expected calibration error (ECE) was the Confidence Weight method, a novel approach that weights the loss of samples to explicitly penalise confident incorrect predictions. The method reduced the ECE by 17% for CRT response prediction and by 22% for CAD diagnosis when compared to a baseline classifier in which no uncertainty-aware strategy was included. In both applications, as well as reducing the ECE there was a slight increase in accuracy from 69% to 70% and 70% to 72% for CRT response prediction and CAD diagnosis respectively. However, our analysis showed a lack of consistency in terms of optimal models when using different calibration measures. This indicates the need for careful consideration of performance metrics when training and selecting models for complex high-risk applications in healthcare.

description: We investigate properties of higher-dimensional generally rotating black-hole spacetimes, so called Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetimes, as well as a family of related spaces which share the same explicit and hidden symmetries. In these spaces, we study a particle motion in the presence of a weak electromagnetic field and compare it with its operator analogies. First, we find general commutativity conditions for classical observables and for their operator counterparts, then we investigate a fulfillment of these conditions in the Kerr-NUT-(A)dS and related spaces. We find the most general form of the weak electromagnetic field compatible with the complete integrability of the particle motion and the comutativity of the field operators. For such a field we solve the charged Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon equations by separation of variables.

description: Различные аспекты переломов позвонков у детей и подростков сохраняют свою актуальность. Цель – изучить распространенность, характер и тип множественных переломов тел позвонков у детей и подростков для выбора тактики лечения. Материал и методы. Из 1000 детей и подростков в возрасте от 1,5 до 17 лет включительно, у которых были диагностированы переломы тел позвонков, в 744 (74,4 %) клинических наблюдениях повреждения носили множественный характер. Средний возраст детей исследуемой когорты составил 9 лет 2 месяца. Для постановки клинического диагноза у пострадавших использовали традиционные для экстренной травматологии клинические и лучевые методы исследования. Результаты. Множественные переломы позвонков чаще всего получали дети в возрастной группе 5-9 лет – 40,32 % наблюдений. Основным механизмом травмы явилось падение с высоты собственного роста – 36,96 % случаев. Чаще всего дети получали переломы двух позвонков – 37,23 % наблюдений. В 41,71 % наблюдений эти позвонки были смежными. В общей сложности зарегистрировано более 40 различных комбинаций расположения травмированных позвонков на протяжении позвоночного столба. Переломы, локализующиеся в грудном отделе, преобладали в исследуемой когорте – 71,79 % случаев. В общей сложности 744 ребенка получили переломы 2547 позвонков. Чаще всего зарегистрирована компрессия тел ThV, ThVI, ThIV позвонков – 11,66 %, 10,6 % и 10,09 % наблюдений соответственно. В структуре тяжести полученных травм преобладали переломы первой степени компрессии – 46,25 % случаев. У 0,56 % пострадавших повреждения носили характер политравмы. Магнитно-резонансная томография позволяла не только диагностировать компремированные позвонки, установить их количество и локализацию, но и провести дифференциальную диагностику с таким состоянием, как ушиб позвонков. У 97,98 % пострадавших в лечении использовались консервативные методы. Результаты лечения, отнесенные к категории «хорошие», установлены в 89,24 % случаев, «удовлетворительные» – в 10,76 % наблюдений. Заключение. Среди детей и подростков, получивших неосложненные компрессионные переломы тел позвонков, на долю пациентов с множественными повреждениями приходится 74,4 % клинических наблюдений. Чаще всего дети получают переломы двух (37,23 %) позвонков, при этом в 41,71 % случаев эти позвонки являются смежными. Тяжесть полученных детьми переломов соответствует типам А (99,52 % пострадавших) и В (0,48 % больных) в соответствии с классификацией AO/ASIF. В соответствии с тяжестью полученных травм у большинства пациентов – 99,52 % клинических наблюдений – была применена консервативная тактика лечения, в 2,02 % случаев использованы оперативные методы.

Year: 2023

description: La situación de los reinos en Europa se explicaba, particularmente, gracias a la transición –en la visión jurídico-política— de las autonomías territoriales a los primeros centralismos de la época moderna. El contexto histórico y el marco teórico permiten identificar como la administración de justicia bajo el principio del buen gobierno son fundamentales para la construcción del orden político virreinal. La herencia documental de uno de los virreyes menos estudiados de Nueva España permite esclarecer la acción política de la Corona de España en el siglo XVI. Será la voluntad de expedir juicios eficazmente y velozmente por parte de la autoridad, el instrumento utilizados para delinear el ámbito jurídico del Virrey.

Una legazione etiope nella Khanbaliq di Giovanni da Montecorvino: inizio di un nuovo interesse missionario
Creators: name: Di Bella, Giovanni
Publisher: name: Humanities
Year: 2023

description: Nel 1306, dalla città di Khanbaliq, il frate minore Giovanni da Montecorvino inviava una lettera alla sede apostolica e ai superiori dell’Ordine dei Frati Minori e a quello dei Frati Predicatori, con la quale comunicava il suo operato in Cina e di essere stato raggiunto da una legazione etiope. Quest’ultimo episodio arricchiva il quadro programmatico che la Chiesa latina della prima metà del XIV secolo stava elaborando per una nuova politica estera. Negli anni successivi la sede apostolica incrementò il reticolato relazionale, concentrando il proprio interesse non più solamente alle comunità cristiane stanziate nell’Oriente tartaro, ma anche a quelle nel Regno di Etiopia. Allo stesso tempo, tale progetto papale venne sostenuto da una proficua, seppur non omogena, produzione letteraria maturata in ambito religioso, la quale aveva l’obiettivo di fornire spunti di riflessione e suggerimenti sui possibili legami con il Regno di Etiopia. Il presente lavoro tenta di ricostruire l’episodio della legazione etiope nella Khanbaliq di Giovanni da Montecorvino e le nuove prospettive missionarie che esso avrebbe generato nella Chiesa latina, ramificando e ampliando maggiormente il macro-processo relazionale latino-tartaro.

description: Настоящая статья продолжает исследования автора в области уголовно-правовой защиты редких и уязвимых видов животного мира. Ранее освещались общие проблемы криминализации браконьерства в отношении особо охраняемых представителей дикой фауны; рассматривались вопросы уголовной ответственности за такие преступные посягательства, как контрабанда и незаконный оборот данных биоресурсов.
Отсутствие системности и дифференциации ответственности по таким преступлениям на законодательном уровне влечет за собой разногласия в теории и проблемы квалификации в практической деятельности.
Автором проанализированы вопросы введения в уголовно-правовое поле норм преюдициального характера применительно к посягательствам на редкие и уязвимые виды животного мира. В результате получены новые аргументированные выводы по совершенствованию уголовного законодательства и правоприменительной практики.
description: The article continues the author’s research on criminal protection of rare and vulnerable species of fauna. Previous works dealt with general issues of criminalization of poaching in relation to specially protected wild animals and discussed issues of criminal liability for such offences as smuggling and illicit trafficking of bio resources.
No systemization and differentiation of liability for such crimes at legislative level leads to disputes on theory and problems of its classification in practice.
The author analyzes the issues of introducing in the criminal and legal system collateral estoppel regulations as applied to offences against rare and vulnerable species of fauna. As a result, new valid conclu-sions for improving criminal legislature and law enforcement practice were made.
A preservação de acervos escultóricos em museus: as moldagens do museu D. João VI

description:  

Os acervos escultóricos em museus necessitam de ações de conservação preventiva que contribuem para minimizar as alterações físico-químicas das obras contidas nesses espaços. As peças que compõem o acervo da sala das moldagens pertencentes ao Museu D. João VI, possuem aspectos tridimensionais e apresentam relevos, curvas, reentrâncias, frisos e outros elementos construtivos que se tornam um local de fácil acúmulo de material particulado ou com maior incidência de exposição às luzes, por exemplo, e que podem levar a degradação do bem cultural. Segundo a teórica Bárbara Appelbaum, tal fato se deve à natural susceptibilidade de um objeto à deterioração das suas materialidades constituintes e que impedir totalmente esse processo, é algo ilusório, cabendo ao conservador-restaurador escolher metodologias que sejam coerentes a cada tipo de situação. O trabalho tem como objetivo abordar estudos de conservação preventiva pertinentes a duas obras do Museu D. João VI: as moldagens Hércules Farnésio e Eros beija Psique, trabalhos de ex-alunos da Escola de Belas Artes. A metodologia proposta neste trabalho é estudar o ambiente e a relação do objeto com o seu entorno, realizar o estudo das obras, com o levantamento histórico e artístico, a investigação e identificação da técnica construtiva, o estado de conservação e o diagnóstico da obra. Como resultados apresentaremos os dados iniciais de temperatura, umidade e iluminância do espaço, bem como as análises por microscopia ótica e os exames UV, para o diagnóstico e a elaboração de medidas de conservação preventiva das obras. Destacamos que nossa pesquisa está em desenvolvimento, e concluímos até o momento, que os procedimentos metodológicos utilizados estão contribuindo para o Museu D. João VI.

description: Dexterous in-hand manipulation is a peculiar and useful human skill. This ability requires the coordination of many senses and hand motion to adhere to many constraints. These constraints vary and can be influenced by the object characteristics or the specific application. One of the key elements for a robotic platform to implement reliable inhand manipulation skills is to be able to integrate those constraints in their motion generations. These constraints can be implicitly modelled, learned through experience or human demonstrations. We propose a method based on motion primitives dictionaries to learn and reproduce in-hand manipulation skills. In particular, we focused on fingertip motions during the manipulation, and we defined an optimization process to combine motion primitives to reach specific fingertip configurations. The results of this work show that the proposed approach can generate manipulation motion coherent with the human one and that manipulation constraints are inherited even without an explicit formalization.
