A large variety of behavioral cues which invoke intention attribution to inanimate entities are reported. Although agents, including software agents and physical robots, have already possessed these features, many people still can not feel mind to them. We hypothesize that the inability of attributing intention toward agents is caused by interpreting agent’s behavior as fixed pattern. In other ...

purpose : to evaluate the efficacy of pattern visual evoked potentials (pvep), standard automated perimetry (sap), short-wavelength automated perimetry (swap), contrast sensitivity (cs), stereoacuity testing in detecting subclinical visual impairment in visually asymptomatic patients with multiple sclerosis (ms) and no history of optic neuritis methods : twenty-seven eyes of 27 patients (7 male...

independence of observations is a fundamental assumption in designing an x chart for individual observations. but unfortunately, the assumption of existence of independent data is not even approximately satisfied. in fact, there is one kind of autocorrelation in the data. this paper demonstrates, through simulating an ar(1) process, that the autocorrelation in the data has deep effect on x char...

PURPOSE To compare the performance of neural networks for perimetric glaucoma diagnosis when using different types of data inputs: numerical threshold sensitivities, Statpac Total Deviation and Pattern Deviation, and probability scores based on Total and Pattern Deviation probability maps (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA). METHODS The results of SITA Standard visual field tests in 213 he...
