VIG: Data Scaling for OBDA Benchmarks
(2019)In this paper we describe VIG, a data scaler for Ontology-Based Data Access (OBDA) benchmarks. Data scaling is a relatively recent approach, proposed in the database community, that allows for quickly scaling an input data ... -
Improving Time-aware Recommendations in Open Source Packages
(2019)Collaborative filtering techniques have been studied extensively during the last decade. Many open source packages (Apache Mahout, LensKit, MyMediaLite, rrecsys etc.) have implemented them, but typically the top-N ... -
Visual time period analysis: a multimedia analytics application for summarizing and analyzing eye-tracking experiments
(2019)Recently, an increasing need for sophisticated multimedia analytics tools has been observed, which is triggered by a rapid growth of multimedia collections and by an increasing number of scientific fields embedding images ... -
Experimental analysis of a small-scale scroll expander for low-temperature waste heat recovery in Organic Rankine Cycle
(2019)In this work a small-scale non-regenerative Organic Rankine Cycle test rig has been developed to experimentally assess the performance of the scroll compressor SANDEN TRS090 converted into an expander. The performance of ... -
Numerical Investigation on the Performance of a Regenerative Flow Turbine for Small-Scale Organic Rankine Cycle Systems
(2019)In this study, the performance characteristics of a regenerative flow turbine (RFT) prototype have been investigated by means of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study. The prototype has been initially designed to be ... -
Distribution of crown hexameric procyanidin and its tetrameric and pentameric congeners in red and white wines
(2019)Nineteen red and white wines were screened for the presence of crown (oligomeric cyclic) procyanidins with 4, 5 or 6 (epi)catechin monomers by means of HPLC-HRMS/MS. For the first time, the distribution of crown procyanidins ... -
Counteracting the filter bubble in recommender systems: Novelty-aware matrix factorization
(2019)The search for unfamiliar experiences and novelty is one of the main drivers behind all human activities, equally important with harm avoidance and reward dependence. A recommender system personalizes suggestions to ... -
Control of the grapevine moth Lobesia botrana through genetic engineering manipulation of host-plant volatiles
(2019)The European grapevine moth, Lobesia botrana, is one of the most important pests of grape. Feeding activity by caterpillars leads to direct damage to reproductive plant tissues (flower buds and berries), and also to indirect ... -
Building Integrating Phase Change Materials: A Dynamic Hygrothermal Simulation Model for System Analysis
(2019)Phase change materials are considered a very promising technology to reduce energy consumption for space heating and cooling purposes in buildings. In this framework, this paper presents a comprehensive energy performance ... -
Per un'epistemologia relazionale della ricerca educativa / For a relational epistemology of educational research
(2019)In this theoretical contribution I firstly discuss an epistemological conflict: the distinction between a form of knowledge that derives from the methods of investigation, logic, and types of reasoning traditionally used ... -
Nuove culture della progettazione educativa, tra pedagogia e architettura
(2019)La scuola oggi sta vivendo un momento di grande vivacità e di intensa cata- lizzazione di energie per rispondere ai grandi cambiamenti che la riguardano. Dall’idea di trasmettere il patrimonio culturale ad un numero quanto ... -
Formative Assessment In The Teaching And Learning Of Mathematics: Teachers’ And Students’ Beliefs About Mathematical Error
(2019)The present paper discusses lower secondary school teachers’ and students’ beliefs about Formative Assessment in mathematics in Cyprus, Switzerland and Italy. Based on teachers’ and students’ beliefs related to formative ... -
Ecophysiological Responses to Rainfall Variability in Grassland and Forests Along a Latitudinal Gradient in Italy
(2019)In the Mediterranean region, ecosystems are severely affected by climate variability. The Italian Peninsula is a hot spot for biodiversity thanks to its heterogeneous landscape and the Mediterranean, Continental, and Alpine ... -
Host plant-related genomic differentiation in the European cherry fruit fly, Rhagoletis cerasi
(2019)Elucidating the mechanisms and conditions facilitating the formation of biodiversity are central topics in evolutionary biology. A growing number of studies imply that divergent ecological selection may often play a critical ... -
Houses, Objects and Architects. Architectural Drawing in Children’s Literature
(2019)The research, presented here in summary form, investigates the contributions of architectural drawing in children’s books and literature. The role of drawing in aesthetic education, in education for the understanding of ... -
Photovoltaic thermal collectors: Experimental analysis and simulation model of an innovative low-cost water-based prototype
(2019)This paper presents an innovative water photovoltaic thermal collector prototype. One of the main novelties of such system is its economic affordability, obtained through low-cost materials. The collector, constructed and ... -
Building to vehicle to building concept toward a novel zero energy paradigm: Modelling and case studies
(2019)This paper proposes and analyses a novel energy management system for buildings connected in a micro-grid, by considering electric vehicles as active components of such energy scheme. Renewable energy sources, PV, energy ... -
Personalised Novel and Explainable Matrix Factorization
(2019)Recommendation systems personalise suggestions to individuals to help them in their decision making and exploration tasks. In the ideal case, these recommendations, besides of being accurate, should also be novel and ...
