The presence of reactive groups in the structure of this biopolymer makes possible the attachment of different molecules. In this study a chitosan thread is synthesized, using a microfluidic technique with two merging channels of acidic chitosan and hydroxide, in order to use it as a controlled release device of drugs. Varying the flows of the fluids in the channels is possible to control the diameter of the thread, obtaining samples of medium and high molecular weight for each flow rate used in the synthesis. The obtained thread of chitosan was mechanically characterized performing tensile tests until failure and stress relaxation tests. An optical system of polarizers was set to visualize the alignment of the polymeric chains while the material is elongated during the tensile test. Young modulus is obtained for each type of sample to quantify the stiffness of the material, and relaxation times were calculated to observe the viscoelastic behavior. Alignment of the material was confirmed, since birefringence was shown.","PeriodicalId":220522,"journal":{"name":"Res. Comput.

However as content grows, effort for discriminating and filtering increases too. Orthogonally, users employ each time smaller devices with reduced screens for web reviewing. Both considerations suggest the neediness of software tools for information acquiring and reduction, i.e., text summarization. There are several methods for text summarization, however, majority of them are based on techniques who considere plain documents in contrast with tree like structures of web pages, other are settled on the existence of keywords ignoring relations among words. In this work we present a formal method for the preparation of text summaries based on latent semantic analysis (LSA), which exploits the implicit relationships between the words that appear in a common context. In this way, text summaries are enriched with a certain semantic flavor incorporated by LSA. Furthermore we prepare the text summary induced by the query of an user and retrieving text excerpts more semantically similar to user’s interest. Additionally we define a formula called semantic similarity which encapsulates the properties of LSA and determines the best text web page node for producing summaries.","PeriodicalId":220522,"journal":{"name":"Res.

The following study propose a novel heuristic to improve an automatic speech recognition system for Arabic language. Our heuristic relies on the col-laboration of two approach: the first one ensures the extraction of collocations from a voluminous corpus then stores them in a database. It uses a combination of several classical measures to cover all aspects of a given corpus in order to exclude bigrams having a high probability of occurring together. The second one constructs a search space on the relations of semantic dependence of the output of a recognition system then, it applies phonetic filter so as to select the most probable hypothesis. To achieve this objective, different techniques are deployed, such as the word2vec or the language model RNNLM in addition to a phonetic pruning system. The obtained results showed that the proposed approach allowed improving the precision of the system.","PeriodicalId":220522,"journal":{"name":"Res. Comput.

Semantic meaning is what we used to model the environment. One of the most important elements human uses to model the environment is the vision. The keyframes are the elements that human use to model the environment. Therefore, we do not need a specific coordinate to move around. We can only use vision to navigate to anywhere we want to go. To take advantage of the concept that human model the environment, we propose a method which imitates the mapping and navigation process of the human. We will use computer vision to do the mapping of the environment and wayfinding to navigate it. The environment model is created with data collected with an odometer that identifies the obstacles on the route of the robot. Our research proposal is to create an algorithm to avoid obstacles. In this paper, we focus on reviewing existing solutions to address our research problem which is a system mounted on a biped robot navigating indoor environments on its own, without having to use preset routines. We have reviewed existing literature and presented it to help future researchers who had the same goal and could be used as a starting point.","PeriodicalId":220522,"journal":{"name":"Res. Comput.

The organization is approached as a group of people related to systematic arrangement of social relations that give meaning to ideas, and values shared. The analysis is accomplished through data obtained from 300 participants aged 15 to 29, that shed light about categories of youth organization as an articulator of the social coexistence: demographics; preferences by age, gender, type, and frequencies of activities; spending; networks and the before and after-party activities, which counts the strategies they adopt for leisure, in the midst of a complex society in Ciudad Juárez, México.
