Access to increasing number of web applications is very good news especially for disabled people. These applications become richer and offer wide variety of services used in everyday's life (document creation, instant messaging, data storage, email communication, social networking, etc.). The problem is that at the same time these rich internet applications (RIA) become less accessible. There is a Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) 2 related to W3C 1 which is trying to cope with this problem. In particular ...

Evaluation of accessibility within a tabletop context is much more complicated than it is within a video game environment. There is a considerable amount of variation in game systems, game mechanisms, and interaction regimes. Games may be entirely verbal, or completely non-verbal. They might be real-time or turn based, or based on simultaneous actions. They can be competitive or co-operative, or shift from one to the other during a single game session. They might involve visual pattern recognition ...

Sensor-based applications are increasingly present in our everyday life. Due to the enormous quantity of sensor data produced, interpreting data and building interoperable sensor-based applications is needed. There are several problems to address the heterogeneity of (1) data format, (2) languages to describe sensor metadata, (3) models for structuring sensor datasets, (4) reasoning mechanisms and rule languages to interpret sensor datasets, and (5) applications.

PTA scores for pedestrian accessibility were predominantly low across Delhi. There was significant spatial clustering of the scores, indicating spatial disparity in the quality of pedestrian infrastructure, which was found to be in tandem with the spatial disparity of income levels. The authors advocate that this toolkit can be used effectively by city authorities and ...

Single-cell assay of transposase-accessible chromatin followed by sequencing (scATAC-seq) is an emerging new technology for the study of gene regulation with single-cell resolution. The data from scATAC-seq are unique-sparse, binary and highly variable even within the same cell type. As such, neither methods developed for bulk ATAC-seq nor single-cell RNA-seq data are appropriate. Here, we present Destin, a bioinformatic and statistical framework for comprehensive scATAC-seq data analysis. Destin ...
