Pd disease state assessment in naturalistic environments using deep learning
, 2015
"... Management of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) could be im-proved significantly if reliable, objective information about fluctuations in disease severity can be obtained in ecologically valid surroundings such as the private home.

resolution movement data collected in such envi-ronments represents a very challenging analysis setting, where advances would have significant societal impact in our ageing population. In this work we propose an assessment system that abides practical usability con-straints and applies deep learning
Culture on the Rise: How and Why Cultural Membership Promotes Democratic Politics
"... Abstract Selectively using Tocqueville, many social scientists suggest that civic participation increases democracy. We go beyond this neo-Tocquevillian model in three ways.

Adolf Grünbaum contends that he has discovered in Freud’s writings a hitherto overlooked thesis (the Tally Argument), enunciated by Freud to underwrite his psychoanalytic method of clinical investigation. (The Foundations of Psycho-analysis, 1984:127-72). He claims that until at least 1917, and possibly up to 1926, Freud invoked the unique efficacy of analytic therapy to vindicate the Freudian theory of personality, including the specific aetiologies of the psychoneuroses and the general theory of psychosexual development (Foun-dations: 140-1). In this article I shall argue (1) that the Tally Argument itself is defective, and (2) that Freud did not invoke it as Grünbaum claims. In short, I shall argue that Grünbaum’s Tally Argument thesis is untenable and, as a corollary, that his depiction of Freud as a ’sophisticated scientific methodologist’ is misconceived.
