Human factors design of a multimedia system: the Libtech International '93 Exhibition Guide
(University of Hertfordshire, 1993)This paper describes the development of a multimedia exhibition guide using a User Centred Design approach. Problems with the gathering, capture and integration of data on disparate media using a variety of software and ... -
Human factors in business-to-business research over the internet
(2001)This paper explores the problems and challenges surrounding the conduct of research via the internet among business audiences and highlights the great potential that exists for business-to-business research over the net. ... -
Human impact on the environment in the Annecy Petit Lac catchment, Haute-Savoie : a documentary approach
(2004)It is axiomatic that mountain environments are particularly vulnerable to changes in patterns of human use, over both long and medium terms, but also over quite short periods of critical activity. This paper uses archaeological ... -
The human in the loop Perspectives and challenges for RoboCup 2050
(2024-05-16)Robotics researchers have been focusing on developing autonomous and human-like intelligent robots that are able to plan, navigate, manipulate objects, and interact with humans in both static and dynamic environments. These ... -
Human medicines: the licensing system

Human Nail Plate Modifications Induced by Onychomycosis : Implications for Topical Therapy
(2015-05-01)Conclusions: Onchomycotic nails presented a thicker but more porous barrier, and its eroded intracellular matrix rendered the tissue more permeable to topically applied chemicals when an aqueous vehicle was used.Purpose: ... -
Human papillomavirus is detected in transitional cell carcinoma arising in renal transplant recipients
(2009-11-09)Aims: We investigated the role of human papillomavirus HPV in the development of transitional cell carcinoma TCC arising in renal transplant recipients. Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted from 10 m paraffin embedded sections ... -
Human papillomavirus-associated increase in p16INK4A expression in penile lichen sclerosus and squamous cell carcinoma
(2008-02-01)Background: Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are sexually transmitted human carcinogens that may play a role in the oncogenesis of penile cancer. Objectives: To investigate the role of HPV infection and expression of the ... -
Human Perception of Intrinsically Motivated Autonomy in Human-Robot Interaction
(2022-02-22)A challenge in using robots in human-inhabited environments is to design behavior that is engaging, yet robust to the perturbations induced by human interaction. Our idea is to imbue the robot with intrinsic motivation ... -
Human problem solving: Beyond Newell et al.'s (1958) Elements of a theory of human problem solving

Human Psychophysical Functions, an Update : Methods for Identifying their form; Estimating their Parameters; and Evaluating the Effects of Important Predictors
(2016-03-01)Stevens' power law for the judgments of sensation has a long history in psychology and is used in many psychophysical investigations of the effects of predictors such as group or condition. Stevens' formulation (Formula ... -
Human responses to an expressive robot
(Lund University, 2006)This paper reports the results of the first study comparing subjects’ responses to robotic emotional facial displays and human emotional facial displays. It describes step by step the building of believable emotional ... -
Human shape recognition from snakes using neural networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1999)This paper documents experiments which have been carried out with several neural network systems designed to categorise pedestrian shapes from non-pedestrian shapes. Active Contour models (‘Snakes’) [1] have been used to ... -
Human skeletal muscle derived microvesicles induce apoptosis in highly metastatic prostate cancer cells
(2012-09-13)The human skeletal muscle is a highly vascularised tissue that contributes approximately 40% of the total body mass. These two factors make it a prime target for secondary cancer metastases. Surprisingly, malignant cancers ... -
Human skin absorption of bis-2-(chloroethyl)sulphide (sulphur mustard) in vitro
(2000)The purpose of this study was to measure the absorption and intra-epidermal fate of S-35-radiolabelled sulphur mustard ((SM)-S-35) in human breast skin in vitro. Skin (full-thickness or heat-separated epidermis) was placed ... -
Human to robot demonstrations of routine home tasks: exploring the role of the robot's feedback
(2008)In this paper, we explore some conceptual issues, relevant for the design of robotic systems aimed at interacting with humans in domestic environments. More specifically, we study the role of the robot's feedback (positive ... -
Human to Robot Demonstrations of Routine Home Tasks:Acknowledgment and Response to the Robot’s Feedback
(The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour (AISB), 2009)This paper investigates the possible role of the robot’s feedback in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) from the human perspective, and attempts to highlight some important conceptual and practical issues such as the lack of ... -
Human uraemic serum displays calcific potential in vitro that increases with advancing chronic kidney disease
(2013-03)Vascular calcification strongly correlates with declining renal function and contributes to the high morbidity and mortality of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is closely regulated by circulating factors but ...
