Spanish version of the Coping Strategies Inventory
Introducción. En el presente trabajo acometimos la
adaptación del Inventario de Estrategias de Afrontamiento
(CSI) al ámbito español. Esta necesidad se justifica, por una
parte, por la escasez y las limitaciones de los instrumentos
disponibles en nuestro idioma, y por otra, por las excelentes
potencialidades que ofrece el CSI.
Método. Fue traducido y aplicado a una muestra de
337 personas adultas de características sociodemográficas
diversas, recogida de forma incidental en actividades formativas
en la provincia de Sevilla.
Resultados. Los resultados mostraron unas excelentes
propiedades psicométricas superando incluso las del estudio
original: ocho factores explicaron un 61 % de la varianza
con sólo 40 ítems (frente a los 72 que explicaban un 47%
en el instrumento original) y obtuvieron coeficientes de
consistencia interna entre 0,63 y 0,89. La validez convergente
se comprobó utilizando las intercorrelaciones entre
escalas y las correlaciones con disposiciones de personalidad
(NEO-FFI) y eficacia percibida del afrontamiento.
Conclusiones. El CSI se comportó de forma válida y fiable
en la evaluación de la utilización de estrategias de
afrontamiento en una amplia variedad de situaciones.Introduction. The aim of the present study was to
adapt the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI) to the Spanish
setting. This need is justified on the one hand by the shortage and limitations of the instruments available in
our language and, on the other, by the excellent potentialities
that the CSI offers.
Method. It was translated and applied to a sample of
337 adults, with diverse demographic characteristics, recruited
from different teaching activities by the authors
in the province of Seville (Spain).
Results. The results showed excellent psychometric
properties surpassing those of the original study: eight
factors accounted for 61% of variance with only 40 items
(as opposed to the 72 that accounted for 47% in the original
study) and obtained Alpha coefficients between 0.63
and 0.89. The convergent validity was verified using intercorrelations
between scales, correlations with personality
dispositions (NEO-FFI) and with the coping efficacy.
Discussion. The CSI was a valid and reliable measure
of coping strategies used in many stressful situations
Scalable Support for Globally Moving Networks
This paper proposes a scalable solution for the support for globally moving networks. It is basically oriented to airborne mobile networks built in commercial aircrafts in order to provide Internet access to the passengers. As opposed to currently used solutions, the proposed solution has no impact in the global routing tables while it provides optimized paths between the mobile network and the rest of the Internet The proposed solution is an extension to the IETF standard network mobility support protocol and relies on the communication through multiple geographically distributed Home Agents in order to avoid panoramic routing imposed by single anchor points as in the case of a single Home Agent. The proposed solution includes a mechanism to select the best Home Agent to route new communications through.This project has been supported by Optinet project TIC-2003-09042-C03-01 and IMPROVISA project.Publicad
Prevalencia de la infección por Helicobacter pylori en pacientes sintomáticos en la provincia de Cuenca
Tesis Univ. Complutense de Madrid, 1995El helicobacter pylori (hp) es una bacteria gram negativa y productora rápida de ureasa, que se encuentra principalmente en el antro gástrico del hombre. El germen fue aislado y cultivado en 1982. Desde entonces se le ha implicado en la patogenia de la gastritis crónica idiopática (tipo "b"), en la ulcera péptica gastroduodenal, en el adenocarcinoma gástrico y en linfoma gástrico malt. Sin embargo, los pacientes infectados son muy numerosos, y pocos, en comparación con la extensión de la infección, los que desarrollan complicaciones. Se ha llevado a cabo un estudio de la prevalencia del hp en pacientes con síntomas digestivos, en la provincia de cuenca. La detección de la infección por el hp se llevaba a cabo mediante la prueba de la ureasa, para la que se obtenía una biopsia endoscópica del antro gástrico. La prevalencia global del hp fue del 63.29%, resultado que no difiere sustancialmente del obtenido por otros autores españoles en otras zonas geográficas, utilizando métodos similares. La úlcera bulbar presentó la mayor prevalencia de hp positivo (92.85%). El dato de que los pacientes con una endoscopia normal son hp positivos en el 65.85% apoya la extensa infección sin patología macroscópica.Fac. de MedicinaTRUEpu
Traffic engineering in multihomed sites
It is expected that IPv6 multihomed sites will obtain as many global prefixes as direct providers they have, so traffic engineering techniques currently used in IPv4 multihomed sites is no longer suitable. However, traffic engineering is required for several reasons, and in particular, for being able to properly support multimedia communications. In this paper we present a framework for traffic engineering in IPv6 multihomed sites with multiple global prefixes. Within this framework, we have included several tools such as DNS record manipulation and proper configuration of the policy table defined in RFC 3484. To provide automation in the management of traffic engineering, we analyzed the usage of two mechanisms to configure the policy table.This work has been partly supported by the European Union under the E-Next Project FP6-506869 and by the OPTINET6 project TIC-2003-09042-C03-01.Publicad
Exploiting semantic segmentation to boost reinforcement learning in video game environments
In this work we explore enhancing performance of reinforcement learning algorithms in
video game environments by feeding it better, more relevant data. For this purpose, we use
semantic segmentation to transform the images that would be used as input for the reinforcement learning algorithm from their original domain to a simplified semantic domain
with just silhouettes and class labels instead of textures and colors, and then we train the
reinforcement learning algorithm with these simplified images. We have conducted different experiments to study multiple aspects: feasibility of our proposal, and potential benefits
to model generalization and transfer learning. Experiments have been performed with the
Super Mario Bros video game as the testing environment. Our results show multiple advantages for this method. First, it proves that using semantic segmentation enables reaching
higher performance than the baseline reinforcement learning algorithm without modifying the actual algorithm, and in fewer episodes; second, it shows noticeable performance
improvements when training on multiple levels at the same time; and finally, it allows to
apply transfer learning for models trained on visually different environments. We conclude
that using semantic segmentation can certainly help reinforcement learning algorithms that
work with visual data, by refining it. Our results also suggest that other computer vision
techniques may also be beneficial for data prepossessing. Models and code will be available
on github upon acceptanceOpen Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature. This

Movilidad cotidiana por motivos laborales en Andalucía. Estudio de caso: el Subbético cordobés
La distancia-tiempo actúa como factor determinante en las pautas de movilidad obligada de la población ocupada. Junto al factor tiempo, los medios de desplazamiento ejercen un papel fundamental en la configuración de los patrones de movilidad de la población en España. Así, la oportunidad de acceso a un determinado medio, por tanto, resulta determinante en la configuración de trayectos y combinaciones diarias para acceder al lugar de trabajo desde el municipio de residencia.
En este sentido, los microdatos del Censo de Población de 2001 (INE) permiten tejer una compleja malla de relaciones multiterritoriales que configuran la red de espacios vividos de la población, a partir de vectores de desplazamiento en los que la movilidad de cada individuo, en combinación con la del resto, muestra patrones espaciales que permiten establecer nodos, áreas de influencia y cuencas de empleo e ir desde el microdato hasta la integración de la red de desplazamientos a nivel naciona
Mobile Indoor Augmented Reality. Exploring applications in hospitality environments.
Augmented reality (AR) is been increasingly used in mobile devices. Most of the available applications are set to work outdoors, mainly due to the availability of a reliable positioning system. Nevertheless, indoor (smart) spaces offer a lot of opportunities of creating new service concepts. In particular, in this paper we explore the applicability of mobile AR to hospitality environments (hotels and similar establishments). From the state-of-the-art of technologies and applications, a portfolio of services has been identified and a prototype using off-the-shelf technologies has been designed. Our objective is to identify the next technological challenges to overcome in order to have suitable underlying infrastructures and innovative services which enhance the traveller?s experience
Semantic-aware scene recognition
Scene recognition is currently one of the top-challenging research fields in computer vision. This may be due to the ambiguity between classes: images of several scene classes may share similar objects, which causes confusion among them. The problem is aggravated when images of a particular scene class are notably different. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have significantly boosted performance in scene recognition, albeit it is still far below from other recognition tasks (e.g., object or image recognition). In this paper, we describe a novel approach for scene recognition based on an end-to-end multi-modal CNN that combines image and context information by means of an attention module. Context information, in the shape of a semantic segmentation, is used to gate features extracted from the RGB image by leveraging on information encoded in the semantic representation: the set of scene objects and stuff, and their relative locations. This gating process reinforces the learning of indicative scene content and enhances scene disambiguation by refocusing the receptive fields of the CNN towards them. Experimental results on three publicly available datasets show that the proposed approach outperforms every other state-of-the-art method while significantly reducing the number of network parameters.
