Integración de robot social para asistencia al cliente en el sector del Retail
Las empresas buscan crear una relación empresa-cliente única y por ello uno de los puntos en lo que
se basan es en facilitar o mejorar la experiencia del cliente con ellos.
De ahí, la necesidad de este proyecto. Además, dicho trabajo es útil para evaluar hasta qué punto es
conveniente el uso de un autómata como mediador. Todo esto está contenido dentro del proyecto
RETAIL en el cual colaboré con AICIA.
Más adelante en este documento detallaré los framework que se usan, pero como punto a resultar será
el uso de la herramienta ROS (Robotic Operating System), pero esta ya con un enfoque de aprendizaje,
dado que en el proyecto colaboraban más personas que ya la conocían.
Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo fin de grado es doble. Por un lado, seguir formándome en
cuanto a lenguajes y arquitecturas de comunicación entre máquinas y la creación de todos los
programas para la comunicación del robot con el usuario.The Companies seek to create a unique company-customer relationship and for that reason one of the
points in which they are based is in facilitating or improving the customer experience with them.
From there, the need for this project. In addition, such work is useful to evaluate until it is convenient
point to use an automaton as mediator. All of this is contained within the RETAIL Project in which I
collaborated with AICIA.
Later in this document I will detail the frameworks that are used, but as a result will be the use of the
ROS (Robotic Operating System) tool, but this is already a learning approach, since the project
collaborated more people who already knew.
Therefore, the aim of this end-of-degree paper is twofold. On the one hand, continue to form me as
languages and communication architectures between machines and the creation of all programs for
the communication of the robot with the user.Universidad de Sevilla. Grado en Ingeniería Electrónica, Robótica y Mecatrónic
Effects of probiotics on cognitive and emotional functions in healthy older adults: Protocol for a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled crossover trial
Aging is a process that includes changes in cognitive and emotional functions,as well as changes in the diversity and integrity of gut microbiota. Probiotictreatments have recently been studied as a potential new therapeutic approachto alleviate a wide range of problems in other populations; however, clinicalstudies in older adults remain insufficient and limited. Thus, the aim of thisproject is to evaluate the efficacy of a multispecies probiotic formulation as atherapeutic strategy for attenuating the emotional and cognitive decline asso-ciated with aging in adults over the age of 55. This is a double‐blind randomizedplacebo‐controlled crossover trial involving at least 32 older adults andcomparing two conditions: (a) probiotic, providing a multispecies probiotic for10 weeks (Lactobacillus rhamnosusandBifidobacterium lactis); and (b) placebo,receiving a harmless substance (potato starch). Despite the increasing use ofprobiotics for the treatment of cognitive and emotional problems, no study hasyet focused on this group, to the best of our knowledge. Therapeutic strategiesof the kind outlined in this protocol will help to shed light on the current state ofknowledge about this topic, as well as promote health programs tailored to thispopulation, which would encourage active aging and healthy lifestyles. Not onlydo we expect improvements in the emotional dimension in terms of anxiety,stress, depression, and sleep quality, we also expect improvements in the cog-nitive dimension in terms of attention,memory, and decreased impulsivity
Lipid Metabolism Alterations in a Rat Model of Chronic and Intergenerational Exposure to Arsenic
Chronic exposure to arsenic (As), whether directly through the consumption of contaminated drinking water or indirectly through the daily intake of As-contaminated food, is a health threat for more than 150 million people worldwide. Epidemiological studies found an association between chronic consumption of As and several pathologies, the most common being cancer-related disorders. However, As consumption has also been associated with metabolic disorders that could lead to diverse pathologies, suchas type 2 diabetes mellitus, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and obesity. Here, we used ultra-performance liquid chromatography
(UPLC) coupled to electrospray ionization/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QToF) to assess the effect of chronic intergenerational As exposure on the lipid metabolism profiles of serum from 4-month-old Wistar rats exposed to As prenatally and also during early life in drinking water (3 ppm). Significant differences in the levels of certain identified lyso-phospholipids, phosphatidylcholines, and triglycerides were found between the exposed rats and the control groups, as well as between the sexes. Significantly increased lipid oxidation determined by the malondialdehyde (MDA) method was found in exposed rats compared with controls. Chronic intergenerational As exposure alters the rat lipidome, increases lipid oxidation, and
dysregulates metabolic pathways, the factors associated with the chronic inflammation present in different diseases associated with chronic exposure to As (i.e., keratosis, Bowen’s disease, and kidney, liver, bladder, and lung cancer)

Corona Mortis: Una variación anatómica con relevancia clínica. Reporte de caso.
The obturator artery is one of the parietal branches arising from the internal iliac artery, the anatomical variation from which this artery originates is called “The corona mortis”, generally from the external iliac artery or the inferior epigastric artery. This finding was observed bilaterally in a male cadaver during a pelvis dissection. Clinical consideration of the anatomical variation in the obturator artery, during surgical procedures, is of great importance due to the risk of pelvic hemorrhage.La arteria obturatriz es una de las ramas parietales originada de la arteria iliaca interna, la variación anatómica en la cual la arteria se origina de la arteria iliaca externa o de la arteria epigástrica inferior es llamada “La corona mortis”. Este hallazgo fue observado de manera bilateral en un cadáver masculino, durante una disección de pelvis. La consideración clínica de la variación anatómica en la arteria obturatriz durante procedimientos quirúrgicos, tiene una gran importancia por el riesgo de desarrollar una hemorragia pélvica

Modeling of refrigeration systems for control and energy efficiency
La climatización en edificios es una de las aplicaciones más importantes de los sistemas de refrigeración y su uso supone hasta un 20% de la energía consumida en países desarrollados. Actualmente, los ingenieros de control dedican grandes esfuerzos a mejorar la eficiencia energética de estos sistemas. Uno de los mayores obstáculos en esta línea de investigación es la obtención de buenos modelos, debido a la complejidad de las máquinas de refrigeración comerciales. En este artículo se presenta un modelo para un caso realista de estudio donde se incorporan máquinas reales para el estudio de técnicas de control para la mejora de la eficiencia. Además, se expone un ejemplo donde se aplica control predictivo basado en modelo con seguimiento de temperaturas.Building air conditioning is an important application of refrigeration systems, and its operation consumes up to 20% of the total energy in developed countries. Currently, control engineers are expend time and effort to find new methods that improve energy fficiency. However, obtaining proper models is a difficult task due to the complexity of comercial chillers and business confidentiality. In this paper, data-based identification is proposed to obtain non-linear models of real machines. Furthermore, a case study is presented with the application of model predictive control for temperature tracking.Ministerio de Economía y Empresa de España y FEDER/UE Proyecto DPI2016-76493- C3-1-
