Performance measures for characterizing regional congestion using aggregated multi-year probe vehicle data
(2017)Probe vehicle speed data has become an important data source for evaluating the congestion performance of highways and arterial roads. Predefined spatially located segments known as Traffic Message Channels (TMCs) are ... -
Person-centered care for institutionalized older adults in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil: a case study
(2021)As countries become more developed and undergo a demographic transition, the number of older adults is expected to grow at an increasing rate (Sköldunger, 2020). This change in population structure leads to a heightened ... -
Petri net modeling of perceptual decision making algorithms for better ball control and navigation
(2016)RoboCup poses the unique challenge of programming a robot to autonomously navigate an environment with both dynamic and static objects. Robot teams must coordinate with one another to pass and kick the ball into the goal, ... -
Photochemistry of 2-pyridones with para-substituted benzenes
(2021)In pharmaceuticals, there is a large use of complex heterocyclic scaffolds that require long syntheses. Specifically, drugs containing pyridones are becoming increasingly more common, especially with containing 2-pyridones. ... -
