O reconhecimento da intenção do condutor a partir de sinais de eletroencefalografia (EEG) pode ser útil no desenvolvimento de interfaces cérebro computador (BCI) para serem usadas em sinergia com veículos inteligentes. Isso pode ser benéfico para melhorar a qualidade de interação entre o motorista e o carro, por exemplo, fornecendo uma resposta do carro inteligente alinhada com a intenção do motorista. Neste estudo, considera-se a antecipação como sendo o estado cognitivo que leva a ações especificas durante a condução de um automóvel. Portanto, propomos investigar a presença de padrões antecipatórios em sinais EEG durante a condução de veículos para determinar duas ações especifícas (1) virar à esquerda e (2) virar à direita, alguns milissegundos antes que tais ações aconteçam. Um protocolo experimental foi proposto para gravar sinais EEG de 5 indivíduos enquanto eles operam um simulador de realidade virtual não invasiva - que foi projetado para tal experimento - que simula a condução de um carro virtual. O protocolo experimental é uma variante do paradigma da variação negativa contingente (CNV) com condições Go e No-go no sistema de condução de realidade virtual. Os resultados apresentados neste estudo indicam a presença de padrões antecipatórios em potenciais corticais lentos observados no domínio do tempo (medias dos sinais EEG) e da frequência (Power Spectra e coerência de fase). Isso abre um leque de possibilidades no desenvolvimento de sistemas BCI - baseados em sinais antecipatórios - que conectem o motorista ao veiculo inteligente favorecendo uma tomada de decisão que analise as intenções dos condutores podendo eventualmente evitar acidentes durante a condução.

This invention relates to an apparatus and method for improving detection by equipment used to detect magnetic susceptibility. The advantages provided are related to different factors, such as reduced instrumentation cost, performance in terms of stability and sensitivity, etc. The devices may be used, for example, to detect magnetic tracers and markers in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans. They can be used in research and/or for diagnostic purposes using information related to a variety of parameters of the gastrointestinal tract, such as, pharyngeal and oesophageal transit time, gastric emptying and motility, colonic motility, inter alia.

A clinical investigation was undertaken to find out the prevalence of craniomandibular signs and symptoms in a group of 11 patients with labiopalatal lesions. The number and distribution of occlusal contacts was evaluated through questionnaire, clinical examination and analysis of mounted casts in partially adjustable articulators in the position of maximum inter cuspation. The most frequent signs and symptoms were articular sounds and lateral pterygoid muscle tenderness to palpation followed by restriction of mouth opening and sensation of tiredness. The number of occlusal contacts was small, mean of 5 contacts per patient, and the site was considered as atypical, 62% of them were on inclined plane surfaces , suggesting occlusal instability. The frequency of signs and symptoms was low and they were of a mild character. The most prevailing signs of craniomandibular dysfunction - articular sounds, muscular tenderness to palpation and restriction of mouth opening - was noticed in only one of the patients

Recent years have seen a movement toward school inclusion of children with special educational needs. In Brazil, there is the formulation of laws guaranteeing rights for disabled people, giving you free access to regular classroom complemented by specialized educational services. In the case of students with deafness, the Federal Decree No. 5626 of 2005, recommends that schools offer the Brazilian sign language as language support, and should take into classrooms, an interpreter. In this study we conducted a mapping of the educational situation of students with hearing loss of 35 municipalities. There was a mode of education in which deaf students are enrolled, and also the municipalities have organized the specialized educational services for such students. Data were collected through interviews with managers of 35 municipalities. The results showed that the vast majority of municipalities participating in the study opted for the enrollment of deaf students in regular class. Only a few municipalities managers reported the existence of classes and enrollment in special schools or even the existence of deaf students out of schools. It also found that all municipalities have organized the specialized educational services, like additional offering in the resource rooms. We conclude that despite the existing difficulties, the Brazilian municipalities are gradually adjusting to the prospect of inclusive education. Continuing education courses should be offered in order to prepare more teachers to work with diversity.

The process of inclusion of deaf students at regular and specialized educational institution is a complex issue, which has the main point of discussion its specificity linguistic represented by Brazilian Sign Language. Whereupon, this research analyzed how the discourses of young students with deafness on this type of education at regular and specialized educational institution from a city situated in the State of São Paulo. The aim of this study was analyze the relations between the discourses of deaf students and their production conditionals, using the dimension of Discourse Analysis and the historical-cultural psychology. As parts of this research, were used four deaf students enrolled in schools belong in the city of São Paulo, which two schools are regular and two are specialized to deaf people. The collection instruments build themselves in observation of dialogue situations in classroom and interview semistructured. The interviews were made by video recording, researcher and an interpreter. The results showed that discourse of the student enrolled in the specialized school differs in relation to the ideals of bilingual education, in this case defended by users of the Brazilian Sign Language, fact not observed in the context of the regular school.

Neste trabalho se propôs a utilização do MP3 player portátil para gravação de sinal nãoáudio em sua memória, utilizando-se seu recurso para gravação de voz. Para avaliar a proposta, retirou-se o microfone de eletreto do MP3 player e em seu lugar injetou-se um sinal de FM, com portadora de áudio de 1200 Hz modulada pelo sinal de interesse. O sinal é gravado no aparelho em arquivo no formato WAV. Sua recuperação se fez usando um demodulador de FM a PLL cuja entrada é o sinal de FM captado nos terminais da bobina do fone de ouvido do MP3 player. Nos testes, usou-se sinal senoidal e sinal de eletrocardiograma. Embora a qualidade dos sinais de baixa freqüência precise ser melhorada, em geral os resultados apontam para a viabilidade da proposta. Fazem-se sugestões para melhorias e extensões do trabalho.

The aim of this study is to analyze the vocalizations of Dendropsophus nanus and its responses to the dominant frequencies of conspecific calls. There were made playback experiments by broadcasting calls of different dominant frequencies towards particular individuals, while their behavioral responses were registered. The results suggest that the playbacks cause behavioral complexity and aggressiveness to increase.

Through the data acquisition system of the instrument Brazilian Solar Spectroscope (BSS) at INPE, solar observations in the decimetric radio wave band (1000-2500 MHz) are regularly made. This data is showed as dynamic spectra using the software BSSView created for this purpose. The process of data acquisition can be influenced by various sources, dificulting the resulting dynamic spectrum analysis. The objective of this work is to create a computational routine that eliminates dynamic components of the spectrum attributed to interfering signals and integrate it into BSSView. It was done a preliminary study on the programming language Interactive Data Language (IDL), in which the BSSView was developed, and the Fourier transform, that is required for the application of the filter
