The complexity of the disease difficult to carry out objective medical assessments of the level of tremors. This article presents a system which uses the accelerometer and gyroscope sensors in smartwatches to quantify the tremors in patients with Parkinson's disease. The system is based on a Wireless Body Area Network composed by multiple sensor nodes (Android Wears) and one sink node (Android Smartphone). The system integrates four processes: user authentication, placement of sensors on the body, movement sensing and data uploading. The system was evaluated in 12 patients with PD (five males and seven females) while they were doing several activities, but in this article we only analyses when the patients were seated at rest. The patients had an average disease duration of 6.25 years, an average age of 66.33 years and a range of 5186 years. The tremor magnitudes were presented in the form of linear acceleration and angular velocity in the time domain. The results indicate that these variables can determine Parkinson's disease evolution in a patient diagnosed with stage 3 and 4.","PeriodicalId":6480,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting (ETCM)","volume":"73 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80922535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three types of topologies are evaluated to determine the most suitable for this system. The results indicated that the “A” topology exhibits a smoother reaction to perturbations, which is desirable for a safe and comfortable human-machine interaction.

The model of the robot, which has six identified variables, is linearized by least squares estimation. A Linear-quadratic Regulator is designed to maintain the robot stabilized, while it moves over a path. Furthermore, an integral part is added to the controller in order to achieve steady state equal to zero. Thus the result is an optimal PI controller. The path planning is designed using a Rapidly Exploring Random Tree Connect method. In addition, two algorithms are presented to improve the quality of the path, the first algorithm reduces the redundant paths and the second algorithm uses the Bezier curves to smooth the path.","PeriodicalId":6480,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting (ETCM)","volume":"44 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76363577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This task is performed at each power station with the load frequency controller. On wider areas, the energy management systems supervise generation control automatically to preserve stability and reliability. Due to the unpredictability of the demand, the control response must be as fast as possible to prevent larger deviations that could lead to cascading failures and outages. In order to understand the dynamic behavior and capabilities of the controllers, real time simulation offers a great advantage over its offline predecessors, not only for operational training but also for prototyping. This paper studies the effectiveness of the real time simulator in the analysis of a power system load frequency control.","PeriodicalId":6480,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting (ETCM)","volume":"33 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78584541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, a comprehensive connectivity analysis of the published genome-scale metabolic model of Synechococcus elongatus PCC7942 (iSyf715) is presented, highlighting the most connected metabolites of this biological system. To get a suitable fit, the connectivity distribution of the metabolic model is evaluated using the cumulative distribution function (Pareto's law), verifying a power-law distribution in iSyf715 metabolic network (3=2.203). Additionally, through the comparison of the connectivity distributions in different microbial metabolic network models, the scale-free behavior of these metabolic networks is verified. The prediction of the metabolic network connectivity could supports the determination of the underlying functioning principles of certain cellular processes.","PeriodicalId":6480,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE Ecuador Technical Chapters Meeting (ETCM)","volume":"42 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83659399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesized that an electronic, portable, and low cost device that can provide objective, quantitative measurements of serum turbidity might have the potential to improve the early detection of neonatal sepsis. The design features, testing methodologies, and the obtained results are described. The final electronic device was evaluated in two experiments. The first one consisted in recording the turbidity value measured by the device for different solutions with known concentrations and different degrees of turbidity. The second analysis demonstrates a positive correlation between visual turbidity estimation and electronic turbidity measurement. Furthermore, our device demonstrated high turbidity in serum from two neonates with sepsis (one with a confirmed positive blood culture; the other one with a clinical diagnosis). We conclude that our electronic device may effectively measure serum turbidity at the bedside.
