Data Mining and Internet of Things (IoT) application for Biomedical products

Edwin Gerardo Acuña Acuña — Wed, 11 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0100

The evolution of high technology in recent years has allowed the biomedical science sector to improve many of its processes, devices and treatments. With the emergence and reinforcement of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, Big Data and the Internet of Things (IoT), they become allies which are representing a great improvement for these industrial sectors. Process sources may include databases, data warehouses, and other information repositories in the biomedical sciences. Thus, in the current context, the technologies called IoT have become a provider of information and data on a large scale.

Does science dissemination have a gender?

Maider Eizmendi-Iraola, Simón Peña-Fernández — Mon, 23 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0100

This article analyzes the articles published on Covid-19 in the Spanish version of The Conversation from a gender perspective through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of 306 texts published over a year. The results indicate a greater presence of men in the first moments of the health emergency, while female scientists have only had a greater presence in social issues. Likewise, the texts signed by women have obtained less interaction from the audiences and a higher proportion of negative responses.

Social Sciences and Big Data

Renzo Antonio Seminario Córdova — Tue, 24 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0100

The objective of this research was to explore and characterize the main big data repositories in the area of social sciences available in 2021. The research design was non-experimental, exploratory and descriptive. The population consisted of 110 big data located by the Google dataset search engine. The sample corresponded to the top 10 big data. The results indicated that the most important big data repositories and platforms are centralized by the private sector located in US companies, fundamentally.

ICTs in the classroom: case study Colombia

Marisol Esperanza Cipagauta Moyano — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 00:00:00 +0100

A study conducted in partnership with Blinklearning and several organizations, including UNIMINUTO, showed interesting results to consider when using technology. 1,014 teachers of Primary, Secondary and University levels were surveyed. The main categories of the study are: usage of ICTs, the digitalization of educational centers, post COVID impact, teaching role and a general vision of education. These categories are the basis of this article, which aims to show the current situation from the point of view of the protagonists, Colombian teachers from the different educational levels.

Do Accelerating Turing Machines Exist?

José Alejandro Fernández Cuesta — Mon, 29 May 2023 00:00:00 +0200

Accelerating Turing Machines (ATMs) are devices capable of executing super-tasks. However, the mere exercise of definition has generated several paradoxes. This paper will define the notions of super-task and ATM in a comprehensive way and will clarify what should be understood in a formal-logical context when asking about the existence of an object. Following the distinction between logical and physical possibilities, the paradoxes will be dissolved and it will be concluded that ATMs are possible and exist as abstract objects.

Dichotomies of a Gendered Science

María Rubio Juan — Wed, 07 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0200

This paper aims to show the relativistic risks involved in the successor science projects of some feminist epistemologies in terms of preserving the authority and independence that science has had until now. To this end, we briefly present the analyses of the five feminist epistemologies and how they have addressed the problem of the dichotomies present in scientific narratives and discourses, as well as a critical approach to their projects for a new science.
