Context based selection of user generated content Ghent University
Nowadays, there is a lot of interest in context- aware services, especially those services taking user interests into account. An important example is the automated filtering of the overwhelming amount of information available on the Internet. There is a clear need for services taking the context of the user into account to provide him with the information he needs in a particular situation. In this paper such a personalized content service is ...
Context aware recommendations for user-generated content on a social network site Ghent University
The enormous offer of video content on the internet and its continuous growth make the selection process increasingly difficult for end-users. This overabundance of audio-visual material can be handled by a recommendation system that observes user preferences and assists people with finding interesting content. However, present-day recommendation systems focus on the metadata or the previous consumption behaviour to select the content but do not ...
High Content Image Cytometry in the Context of Subnuclear Organization KU Leuven Ghent University University of Antwerp
The organization of proteins in space and time is essential to their function. To accurately quantify subcellular protein characteristics in a population of cells with regard for the stochasticity of events in a natural context, there is a fast-growing need for image-based cytometry. Simultaneously, the massive amount of data that is generated by image-cytometric analyses, calls for tools that enable pattern recognition and automated ...
From containers to content to context. The changing role of libraries in eScience and eScholarship KU Leuven
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to reposition the research library in the context of the changing information and knowledge architecture at the end of the "Gutenberg Parenthesis" and as part of the rapidly emerging "semantic" environment of the Linked Open Data paradigm. Understanding this process requires a good understanding of the evolution of the "document" notion in the passage from print based culture to the distributed hypertextual and ...
Task Context Overrules Object- and Category-Related Representational Content in the Human Parietal Cortex KU Leuven
The dorsal, parietal visual stream is activated when seeing objects, but the exact nature of parietal object representations is still under discussion. Here we test 2 specific hypotheses. First, parietal cortex is biased to host some representations more than others, with a different bias compared with ventral areas. A prime example would be object action representations. Second, parietal cortex forms a general multiple-demand network with ...
Perceptually optimal compression for heterogeneous image content in the context of medical networked applications Vrije Universiteit Brussel
In medical networked applications, the server-generated application view, consisting of medical image content and synthetic text/GUI elements, must be compressed and transmitted to the client. To adapt to the local content characteristics, the application view is divided into rectangular patches, which are classified into content classes: medical image patches, synthetic image patches consisting of text on a uniform/natural/medical image ...
Co-designing educational content with the professional sector: developing a MOOC for Cultural Heritage in the Europeana context KU Leuven
In this paper, we will discuss how we developed the MOOC: "Creating a Digital Heritage Community", hosted on KULeuvenX: https://www.edx.org/school/kuleuvenx with consortia including University researchers, Cultural Heritage Institutions, Tech companies and digitalisation experts. Co-designing educational content has multiple advantages to be able to offer state-of-the-art knowledge that is adapted to specific professional and education needs. In ...
Does Mobile Television Challenge the Dimension of Viewing Television? An Explorative Research on Time, Place and Social Context of the Use of Mobile Television Content Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Television is one of the last media technologies to become disconnected
from a fixed place like home. Media like newspaper, radio, audio recordings
and computing have already been introduced in a mobile setting since
some time. However with the wide spread and strong domestication of mobile
devices, and the dominant character of television in households, it seems that
the transition to mobile television is ...

Pedagogical content knowledge in the context of foreign and second language teaching: A review of the research literature KU Leuven
In this systematic review, 17 articles were analyzed focusing on three research questions: (1) How is pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) conceptualized in empirical research on foreign and second language (FL/L2) education? (2) How is PCK studied in empirical research on FL/L2 education? (3) What are the main conclusions of empirical research on FL/L2 education? An overview of the most important research findings does not reveal generalizable ...
