In event-based sensing, many sensors independently and asynchronously emit events when there is a change in their input. Event-based sensing can present significant improvements in power efficiency when compared to traditional sampling,…
We here study a network of synaptic relations mingling excitatory and inhibitory neuron nodes that displays oscillations quite similar to electroencephalogram (EEG) brain waves, and identify abrupt variations brought about by swift synaptic…
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder arising from anomalies of the electrical activity in the brain, affecting about 0.5--0.8\% of the world population. Several studies investigated the relationship between seizures and brainwave…
Electroencephalography-based Emotion Recognition (EEG-ER) has become a growing research area in recent years. Analyzing 216 papers published between 2018 and 2023, we uncover that the field lacks a unified evaluation protocol, which is…
Trigger warnings are labels that preface documents with sensitive content if this content could be perceived as harmful by certain groups of readers. Since warnings about a document intuitively need to be shown before reading it, authors…
Runtime monitoring of autonomous systems traditionally relies on mapping continuous sensor observations to discrete logical propositions defined over low-dimensional state variables. This abstraction breaks down in perception-driven…
Here we show that for coupled-map systems, the length of the transient prior to synchronization is both dependant on the coupling strength and dynamics of connections: systems with fixed connections and with no self-coupling display…
Although a seizure event represents a major deviation from a baseline electroencephalographic signal, there are features of seizure morphology that can be seen in non-epileptic portions of the record. A transient decrease in frequency,…
Sensory evaluation is used to assess the consumer acceptance of foods or other consumer products, so as to improve industrial processes and marketing strategies. The procedures currently involved are time-consuming because they require a…
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) improves factual grounding in large language models but suffers from substantial latency due to synchronous retrieval. While recent work explores asynchronous retrieval, existing approaches rely on…
Anxiety is a common mental health condition characterised by excessive worry, fear and apprehension about everyday situations. Even with significant progress over the past few years, predicting anxiety from electroencephalographic (EEG)…
Time lags are ubiquitous in biophysiological processes and more generally in real-world complex networks. It has been recently proposed to use information-theoretic tools such as transfer entropy to detect and estimate a possible delay in…
In the context of event-triggered control, the timing of the triggering events carries information about the state of the system that can be used for stabilization. At each triggering event, not only can information be transmitted by the…
Conceptual design is a cognitively complex task, especially in the engineering design of products having relative motion between components. Designers prefer sketching as a medium for conceptual design and use gestures and annotations to…
In a world of ephemeral moments, our brain diligently sieves through a cascade of experiences, like a skilled gold prospector searching for precious nuggets amidst the river's relentless flow. This study delves into the elusive "moment of…
Evaluating retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) presents challenges, particularly for retrieval models within these systems. Traditional end-to-end evaluation methods are computationally expensive. Furthermore, evaluation of the retrieval…
Engagement is a vital metric in the advertising industry and its automatic estimation has huge commercial implications. This work presents a basic and simple framework for engagement estimation using EEG (electroencephalography) data…
Knowledge is inherently time-sensitive and continuously evolves over time. Although current Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems enrich LLMs with external knowledge, they largely ignore this temporal nature. This raises two…
Long-form video question answering remains challenging for modern vision-language models, which struggle to reason over hour-scale footage without exceeding practical token and compute budgets. Existing systems typically downsample frames…
Nowadays, we are witnessing the advent of the Internet of Things (EC) with numerous devices performing interactions between them or with end users. The huge number of devices leads to huge volumes of collected data that demand the…
