The system is based on an object-oriented DBMS and supports multiple views and view schemas on patients' data. Remote data access is supported too.

At the outset we should emphasize that nothing in Hayward and Tarr’s commentary speaks to the main results of the Biederman and Bar (1999) report: Slight costs of rotation in detecting geon differences when matching a sequential pair of novel objects (3.3% increase in error rates), but massive costs (46.2% increase in error rates) in the detection of metric differences. Their comments are all a...

In a recent article, Biederman and Bar (1999) present several results to support ‘‘a class of theories [that] assumes that non-accidental properties (NAPS) might be exploited so that even novel objects can be recognized under depth rotation’’ — specifically, theories based on ‘geons’ (Biederman, 1987; Hummel & Biederman, 1992). Biederman and Bar likewise present results that they believe to be ...
