We describe our experience with the Muithu sports notational analysis system, a novel digital information system in the popular sports domain. The system integrates real-time coach notations with related video sequences, and is configured with small, off-the shelf and cheap components. Muithu requires little or no human post-processing, which is in strong contrast to state-of-the art resource-intensive ...

Classic patient–physician consultations seem to be poorly adapted to young children. New strategies that are better attuned to young people to improve support of adolescents’ self-management of diabetes need to be tested and evaluated. Objective: ...

Integrative multi-species prediction (IMP) is an interactive web server that enables molecular biologists to interpret experimental results and to generate hypotheses in the context of a large cross-organism compendium of functional predictions and networks. The system provides a framework for biologists to analyze their candidate gene sets in the context of functional networks, as they expand or ...

Persons with type 1 diabetes who use electronic self-help tools, most commonly blood glucose meters, record a large amount of data about their personal condition. Mobile phones are powerful and ubiquitous computers that have a potential for data analysis, and the purpose of this study is to explore how self-gathered data can help users improve their blood glucose management.

En ansatt i vitenskapelig stilling skal utføre minst tre forskjellige oppgaver: forskning, undervisning og formidling. I tillegg kommer administrative gjøremål. Oppgavene trekker på ulike ferdigheter som alle bør dokumenteres i en søknad på en vitenskapelig stilling. Dessverre er det kun et mindretall som utformer sine søknader slik at totalkompetansen anskueliggjøres. En god søknad skal være komplett, ...

Locating content in existing video archives is both a time and bandwidth consuming process since users might have to download and manually watch large portions of superfluous videos. In this paper, we present two novel prototypes using an Internet based video composition and streaming system with a keyword-based search interface that collects, converts, analyses, indexes, and ranks video content. ...
