Two experiments examined serial recall of lists containing random orderings of the digits, 1, 2, 3, and 4. Our intention was to demonstrate active and passive modality effects with silently presented tactile input. In Experiment I, recency recall was enhanced relative to a visual control when subjects received list input by placing their palms on wooden blocks containing 1, 2, 3, or 4 vertical ...

Introduction One of the most important pre-processing steps in optical coherence tomography (OCT) is reducing speckle noise, resulting from multiple scattering of tissues, which degrades the quality of OCT images. Materials and Methods The present study focused on speckle noise reduction and edge detection techniques. Statistical filters with different masks and noise variances were applied on ...

this research study explored the impact of learning styles and input modalities on the second language (l2) learners' input processing (ip). this study also sought to appraise the usefulness of processing instruction (pi) and its components in relation to the learners' learning styles and input modalities. to this end, 73 male and female iranian efl learners from islamic azad universi...

Multimodal dialogue systems allow users to input information in multiple modalities. These systems can handle simultaneous or sequential composite multimodal input. Different coordination schemes require such systems to capture, collect and integrate user input in different modalities, and then respond to a joint interpretation. We performed a study to understand the variability of input in mul...

The design and optimization of nanostructure-based surface acoustic wave (SAW) gas sensor is analyzed based on TiO2 sensing layer and modified electrode dimensions. The sensitivity of the gas sensor depends upon the type of sensing layer used and active surface area obtained by varying the aspect ratio. The performance of the sensor is observed from 0.1ppm to 100ppm concentration of ...

In this paper smart operation of micro energy hub is presented. Energy hub system consists of certain energy hubs and interconnectors that are coordinated by energy hub system operator. An energy hub contains several converters and storages to serve demanded services in most efficient manner from available energy carriers. In this paper, the flexibility of energy delivery point is enhanced u...
