This paper outlines the prospects for integrating findings of neuroscience and education. Methods: This paper is the outcome of a non-systematic review through searching scientific...
متن کاملUpper limits based on “loudest” events
A recent letter reports an upper limit on the galactic compact binary inspiral rate set by gravitational wave observations using the LIGO 40M prototype interferometer. The limit was set by imagining a threshold set equal to the amplitude of the loudest event and then considering the probability that only one event was observed with amplitude greater than the threshold. That limit can be improve...
متن کاملThe Better-Than-Average Effect Is Observed Because “Average” Is Often Construed as Below-Median Ability
Most people rate their abilities as better than "average" even though it is statistically impossible for most people to have better-than-median abilities. Some investigators explained this phenomenon in terms of a self-enhancement bias. The present study complements this motivational explanation with the parsimonious cognitive explanation that the phrase "average ability" may be interpreted as ...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for High Average-utility Itemset Mining
High utility itemset mining (HUIM) is a new emerging field in data mining which has gained growing interest due to its various applications. The goal of this problem is to discover all itemsets whose utility exceeds minimum threshold. The basic HUIM problem does not consider length of itemsets in its utility measurement and utility values tend to become higher for itemsets containing more items...
متن کاملWhy is the average walker male?
The arithmetic mean of the same number of male and female biological motion point-light walkers represented in a morphable, linear walking space is perceived to be male. The perceptually neutral walker corresponds to a point in the female part of the space. It is not clear, though, if this " male bias " is a genuine phenomenon or an artifact of the specific walker space and its underlying metri...
