Título: CUDA-Sankoff: using GPU to accelerate the pairwise structural RNA alignment

Resumo: In this work, we propose and evaluate CUDA-Sankoff, a solution to the RNA structural alignment problem based on the Sankoff algorithm in Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). To our knowledge, this is the first time the Sankoff algorithm is implemented in GPU. In our solution, we show how to linearize the Sankoff 4-dimensional dynamic programming (4D DP) matrix and we propose a two-level wavefront approach to exploit the parallelism. The results were obtained with two different NVidia GPUs, comparing sets of real RNA sequences with  lengths from 46 to 281 nucleotides. We show that our GPU approach is up to 24 times faster than a 16-core CPU solution in the 281 nucleotide Sankoff execution.

Título: Transport Mode Detection Using Mobile Phones and Artificial Neural Networks for Accident Prevention

Resumo: Este artigo apresenta um método baseado em Redes Neurais Artificiais que, utilizando sinais capturados a partir de acelerômetros de telefones celulares convencionais, é capaz de identificar determinados padrões de deslocamento do usuário definidos pelo local onde tal dispositivo é armazenado (no bolso, na mão ou no console) e pela forma como o usuário se desloca (por meio de um carro ou a pé). Tal método possibilita a identificação de situações de risco de acidentes, como dirigir e andar utilizando um smartphone. Os testes mostram que o método proposto é capaz identificar uma entre 10 possíveis classes de transporte com uma taxa de acerto médio de 95,3%.
