Fluctuating Asymmetry

Fluctuating asymmetry refers to small random deviations from perfect symmetry in bilaterally paired structures; it is thought to reflect an organism’s ability to cope with genetic and environmental stress during development and its utility as an indicator of such stresses is based on the assumption that perfect symmetry is an a priori expectation for the ideal state of bilateral structures. Flu...

Fluctuating Target Detection in Fluctuating K-Distributed Clutter

This letter deals with the problem of fluctuating target detection in heavy-tailed -distributed clutter over a number of independent coherent intervals, e.g., in the case of a long observation interval (“stare mode”), or that of independent (range) resolution cells as per the track before detect techniques. The generalized likelihood ratio test for the problem at hand is derived, as well as an ...

Adventure Sports Development Paradigm

In the recent years, adventure sports have been growing increasingly. Adventure sports are new and appealing activities that regularly include some kinds of physical and mental challenges and relative presence of natural environment. These activities are presenting new paths and sometime they called as a serious competitor for mainstream sport. The aim of this study was to present a paradigm fo...
