      Estimating cognitive overload in mobile applications for decision support within the medical domain 

      Flood, D.; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Harrison, R.; McCaffery, F.; Samaras, George S. (2012)
      Mobile applications have the potential to improve the quality of care received by patients from their primary care physicians (PCP). They can allow doctors to access the information they need when and where they need it ...

      A neural network computational model of visual selective attention 

      Neokleous, Kleanthis C.; Avraamides, Marios N.; Neocleous, Costas K.; Schizas, Christos N. (2009)
      One challenging application for Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) would be to try and actually mimic the behaviour of the system that has inspired their creation as computational algorithms. That is to use ANN in order to ...

      A proposed extension of the CODAM model for human attention 

      Neokleous, Kleanthis C.; Avraamides, Marios N.; Ioannides, A. A.; Neocleous, Costas K.; Schizas, Christos N. (2009)
      A new computational model of visual attention is proposed on a theoretical basis, based on the CODAM model (Taylor, 2002, [25], 2006). Also a more general mechanism is proposed for an attention model of two or more senses ...

      Towards user-centric social networks 

      Andreou, Panayiotis G.; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Konstantinidis, Andreas; Georgiadis, Dimosthenis; Belk, Marios; Samaras, George S. (2012)
      Social network portals, such as Facebook and Twitter, often discover and deliver relevant social data to a user's query, considering only system-oriented conflicting objectives (e.g., time, energy, recall) and frequently ...

      User-centric profiling on the basis of cognitive and emotional characteristics: An empirical study 

      Tsianos, Nikos; Lekkas, Zacharias; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Mourlas, Constantinos; Samaras, George S. (2008)
      In order to clarify whether extending learners' profiles in an adaptive educational system to cognitive and emotional characteristics may have a positive effect on performance, we conducted an empirical study that consists ...

      Working memory differences in e-learning environments: Optimization of learners' performance through personalization 

      Tsianos, Nikos; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Lekkas, Zacharias; Mourlas, Constantinos; Samaras, George S.; Belk, Marios (2009)
      Working memory (WM) is a psychological construct that has a major effect on information processing, thus signifying its importance when considering individual differences and adaptive educational hypermedia. Previous work ...

      Working memory span and E-learning: The effect of personalization techniques on learners' performance 

      Tsianos, Nikos; Germanakos, Panagiotis; Lekkas, Zacharias; Mourlas, Constantinos; Samaras, George S. (2010)
      This research paper presents the positive effect of incorporating individuals' working memory (WM) span as a personalization factor in terms of improving users' academic performance in the context of adaptive educational ...
