UMA-BCI Speller: An easily configurable P300 speller tool for end users.

Background And Objective: Some neurodegenerative conditions can severely limit patients' capability to communicate because of the loss of muscular control. Brain-computer interfaces may help in the restoration of communication with these patients, bypassing the muscular activity, so that brain signals can be directly interpreted by a computer. There are many studies regarding brain-controlled spellers; however, these systems do not usually leap out of the lab because of technical and economic requirements.

The ratio of hidden HIV infection in Cuba.

In this work we propose the definition of the ratio of hidden infection of HIV/AIDS epidemics, as the division of the unknown infected population by the known one. The merit of the definition lies in allowing for an indirect estimation of the whole of the infected population. A dynamical model for the ratio is derived from a previous HIV/AIDS model, which was proposed for the Cuban case, where active search for infected individuals is carried out through a contact tracing program.
