We determine a class of triple systems such that each must occur in a triple system with uncountable chromatic number that omits T0 (the system consisting of two triples on four vertices). This class contains all odd circuit of length ≥ 7. We also show that consistently there are two finite triple systems such that they can separately be omitted by uncountably chromatic triple systems but not b...

We tested the hypothesis that saccade gains adapt to minimize error between the visual target and the saccade endpoint of every saccade we make even when the errors on sequential saccades are not directionally consistent. We utilized a state-space model that estimated the degree to which saccade gains were modified by the magnitude and direction of errors made on the previous trial. Importantly...
