Human autonomic and respiratory responses to direct cortical electrical stimulation
Los pacientes con epilepsia son bien conocidos por tener un mayor riesgo de muerte súbita inesperada. El riesgo de muerte súbita inesperada en pacientes con epilepsia (SUDEP) varía de 0,35 a 2,3 por cada 1000 personas por ...
Human Behavior Experimentation and Participation in Scientific Activities in the Wild
La cooperació és un dels trets del comportament que defineixen els éssers humans, però, encara estem tractant de comprendre per què els humans cooperem. Els experiments conductuals estan dissenyats per donar llum sobre els ...
Human body analysis using depth data
Human body analysis is one of the broadest areas within the computer vision field. Researchers have put a strong effort in the human body analysis area, specially over the last decade, due to the technological improvements ...
Human body parts segmentation via stacked and multi-task learning
La segmentació de persones en imatges RGB ha estat un problema central en el camp de la visió per computador. En aquesta tesi abordem el problema mitjançant hand-crafted features en un pipeline de dues etapes tant per ...
Human collective behavior models: language, cooperation and social conventions
The topics dealt with in this thesis are all part of the general problem of social consensus, namely how a convention flourish and decay and what motivates people to conform to it. Examples range from driving on the right ...
Human development assessment through the human-scale development approach: integrating different perspectives in the contribution to a sustainable human development theory.
Since the first Human Development Report (HDRs) was published in 1990, the Human Development (HD) paradigm has become a relevant conceptual framework as well as an intrinsic instrument to measure human progress. Yet, critics ...
Human dimension and welfare implications of the urban wild boar phenomenon and its management
El fenomen del senglar urbà és una de les conseqüències més recents de l’augment generalitzat de les poblacions de senglar (Sus scrofa) que s’ha produït a tot el món durant les darreres dècades. L’habituació del senglar ...
Human genetic disorders: Mendelian and complex diseases
From Darwin’s “On the Origin of Species”, many years elapsed before human diseases were considered in an evolutionary framework. Besides theoretical and empirical advances, we are far from the complete understanding of ...
Human genetic diversity in genes related to host-pathogen interactions
La tesi que teniu a les mans recull quatre treballs amb un objectiu comú; determinar si els patògens (virus, bacteris, paràsits.) han exercit pressions selectives sobre els genomes dels seus hostes (com per exemple els ...

Tesi: Human health risk assessment of exposure to environmental pollutants in the chemical/petrochemical industrial area of Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain).<br/><br/>Autor: Martí Nadal<br/><br/>Resum:<br/><br/>Un dels complexos ...
Human Immunodeficiency Virus infection, asymptomatic atherosclerosis, and inflammation: A candidate gene study
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) was identified more than 30 years ago. The challenges for the clinicians and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected individuals have changed over the years. Nowadays, viral ...
Human M3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor protein-protein interactions: roles in receptor signaling and regualation
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) have been shown to mediate various functions in the central and peripheral nervous systems. These include modulation of exocrine glandular secretion, vasodilatation and smooth ...
Human mobility: data analysis, theory and models
[eng] Like Columbus mistook America for India, we stepped into the era of misinformation mistaking it for the era of big data. Since the digital revolution in the early ’90s we started producing such a huge amount of data ...
Human movement analysis by means of accelerometers : aplication to human gait and motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease
This thesis presents the original contributions of the author on the field of human movement analysis from signals captured by accelerometers. These sensors are capable of converting acceleration from some body parts into ...
Human pharmacology of ayahuasca
La ayahuasca es una bebida psicotrópica obtenida de las plantas Banisteriopsis caapi y Psychotria viridis, que ha sido utilizada desde hace siglos en las cuencas de los ríos Amazonas y Orinoco con finalidades mágico-religiosas ...
Human pluripotent stem cells: towards the definition of new engineering approaches to target heart and kidney disease
[eng] Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) offer a significant advantage in recapitulating key features related to tissue differentiation, morphogenesis and, conversely, human diseases. Taking advantage of their inherent ...
Human population genetics in the Mediterranean region. From single markers to whole-genome sequencing = Genètica de poblacions humanes del Mediterrani. Des de marcadors únics fins la seqüenciació del genoma complet
The human populations of the Mediterranean region have been thoroughly studied. Nonetheless, there are numerous aspects of their demographic and epidemiological history that remain uncertain to date. The growing use of ...
Human population genetics of North Africa: insights into demography and functional variation
Since the origins of humankind, North Africa has been involved in many demographic events, leading to a heterogeneous cultural and genetic landscape. However, it is largely underrepresented in genetic studies, and many ...
Human population genomics of the Western Mediterranean
This work explores the genetic landscape of the Western Mediterranean basin. Genome-wide data have been used in order to describe the genetics of the Island of Ibiza and France. In the first case, we found Ibiza being ...
Human Pose Analysis and Gesture Recognition from Depth Maps: Methods and Applications
The visual analysis of humans is one of the most active research topics in Computer Vision. Several approaches for body pose recovery have been recently presented, allowing for better generalization of gesture recognition ...
