Electronic structure calculations applied to spectroscopic studies of some metal atoms
No full textAbstractIn this thesis, the electronic structure and electrodynamical processes of atomic mercury and potassium are studied experimentally and theoretically. Experimental measurements were carried out by means of both conventional photoelectron spectroscopy and multielectron coincidence technique utilizing magnetic bottle time-of-flight electron spectrometer together with pulsed synchrotron radiation. The thesis focuses on the theoretical modelling and interpretation of the experimentally observed transitions and binding energies. The calculations were carried out with relativistic multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) and non-relativistic Hartree-Fock (MCHF) methods. Theoretical results were used to interpret the experimental data in order to study the electron binding energy level structure and electron transition dynamics of these atoms.Original papersOriginal papers are not included in the electronic version of the dissertation.Khalal, M.

Classification of inter-subject fMRI data based on graph kernels
No full textThe analysis of human brain connectivity networks has become an increasingly prevalent task in neuroimaging. A few recent studies have shown the possibility of decoding brain states based on brain graph classification. Graph kernels have emerged as a powerful tool for graph comparison that allows the direct use of machine learning classifiers on brain graph collections. They allow classifying graphs with different number of nodes and therefore the inter-subject analysis without any kind of previous alignment of individual subject's data. Using whole-brain fMRI data, in this paper we present a method based on graph kernels that provides above-chance accuracy results for the inter-subject discrimination of two different types of auditory stimuli. We focus our research on determining whether this method is sensitive to the relational information in the data. Indeed, we show that the discriminative information is not only coming from topological features of the graphs like node degree distribution, but also from more complex relational patterns in the neighborhood of each node. Moreover, we investigate the suitability of two different graph representation methods, both based on data-driven parcellation techniques. Finally, we study the influence of noisy connections in our graphs and provide a way to alleviate this problem
Climbing Activity Recognition and Measurement with Sensor Data Analysis
No full textThe automatic detection of climbers activities can be the basis of software systems able to support trainers to assess the climbers performance and to define more effective training programs. We propose an initial building block of such a system, for the unobtrusive identification of the activity of someone pulling a rope after finishing the ascent. We use a novel type of quickdraw, augmented with a tri-axial accelerometer sensor. The acceleration data generated by the quickdraw during the climbs are used by a Machine Learning classifier for detecting the rope pulling activity. The obtained results show that this activity can be detected automatically with high accuracy, particularly by a Random Forest classifier. Moreover, we show that data acquired by the quickdraw sensor, as well as the detected rope pulling, can also be used to benchmark climbers
Machine Learning Clustering of Water-Water Interactions in the Cambridge Structural Database
No full textThis study investigated the application of clustering machine learning techniques to analyze water-water contacts in crystal structures deposited in the Cambridge Structural Database. The initial dataset was divided into three groups regarding interaction energies between water molecules, and were separately analyzed. The application of machine learning methods enabled finding similar groups of contacts and defining their geometrical parameters. By carefully scrutinizing geometric parameters and visually examining clustering results, we demonstrated how valuable insights into the diverse spectrum of interactions between water molecules can be gained. Expanding the applicability of clustering methods can be achieved by integrating them into existing software for visualizing crystal structures. This approach has the potential to discover new types of interactions and enhance our understanding of molecular behavior
The Role of Female Monasteries in the Organization of Urban Spaces in Southern Italian Cities: The Case of Matera.
No full textThis chapter explores the impact that female monasteries, often founded by a local ruling dynasty, had on the urban pattern of cities and towns in southern Italy. From a long-term perspective, it considers the situa- tion of such monasteries in the urban context. Situated within the city walls, but in a decentred position, they became a hinge in the medieval fabric of towns and influenced their development. This becomes particularly clear in the case of Matera, where three female convents invested in the construction of new monasteries and thus contributed to shaping urban space

No full textAbstractIn this thesis electronic structure of atomic chromium, rubidium and bromine are studied experimentally and theoretically through transitions and decay processes originating from selected M-shell hole states. The experiments are conducted with traditional methods of electron spectroscopy as well as more recent multicoincidence methods using pulsed synchrotron radiation and a magnetic bottle spectrometer. The observed electronic transitions are theoretically simulated with multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock method. Finally, the calculations are used to interpret the measured spectra to investigate the energy level structure and electron dynamics of the studied elements.Original papersOriginal papers are not included in the electronic version of the dissertation.Keskinen, J., Huttula, S.-M., Mäkinen, A., Patanen, M., & Huttula, M.
