Review on Occupational Personal Solar UV Exposure Measurements Open
During leisure time, people can decide if they want to expose themselves to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation and to what extent. While working, people do not have this choice. Outdoor workers are exposed to solar UV radiation (UVR) on a da…

Modelling a Multiplex Brain Network by Local Transfer Entropy Open
In this work we report on a systematic study of the causal relations in information transfer mechanisms between brain regions under resting condition. The 1000 Functional Connectomes Beijing Zang dataset was used, which includes brain func…

Functional connections between and within brain subnetworks under resting-state Open
The focus of this paper is on the functional role of brain regions focusing on their modular architecture and individual variability. Our main assumption is that the more variable anti-correlation patterns reflect random connections, while…

Anticorrelations between Active Brain Regions: An Agent-Based Model Simulation Study Open
Anticorrelations among brain areas observed in fMRI acquisitions under resting state are not endowed with a well-defined set of characters. Some evidence points to a possible physiological role for them, and simulation models showed that i…

Brain Interaction during Cooperation: Evaluating Local Properties of Multiple-Brain Network Open
Subjects’ interaction is the core of most human activities. This is the reason why a lack of coordination is often the cause of missing goals, more than individual failure. While there are different subjective and objective measures to ass…

An eye tracking index for the salience estimation in visual stimuli Open
Every day we face visual stimuli able to catch our attention, but this aspect becomes crucial if the visual material has the purpose to spread a message aimed at engaging the observer. In this framework, a worthy aspect is how to measure t…
