Visual extinction was studied in a patient with neglect from a right hemispheric lesion. Extinction occurred during double simultaneous stimulation within the same visual hemi-field (VHF). This finding suggests that interhemispheric rivalry is not a critical factor. During double simultaneous stimulation within the same VHF as well as with stimuli in different VHFs, the severity of extinction w...

mehran plain is located in the cultural region of south west iran. studying the geographic location of this region in relation to the formation of early states is important. the cultural materials of chogha ahowan in mehran plain would explain the process of urbanization and cultural interactions of this region with its neighbors. according to the surveys conducted to collect necessary pottery ...

Shape priming was studied in four experiments comprising a complex search task in which subjects searched for a target shape presented among three distractors and reported the location of the target. Localization performance improved as a function of the duration of stimulus exposure and prime lead time. The efficiency of shape primes in improving performance decreased when lateral masks were p...

Background and Importance: Our learning curve during two decades of neurosurgical practice has been changed from an abstractive to a more meaningful and conductive state. In cases of fifth nerve neurinoma, pre-operative anatomopathologic diagnosis could lead us to a pre-planned program during and after the surgery to get the safe surgical result. Case Presentation: Representation of two comp...

Since triangular routing in Mobile IP (MIP) is undesirable, MIP with Route Optimization (MIP-RO) and MIP with Location Registers (MIP-LR), all use binding updates that are sent directly to a Correspondent Host. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) based mobility management also uses direct binding updates between a Mobile Host and a Correspondent Host. However, this makes these protocols (except t...

The facility location problem in a market environment where other similar facilities are already activated has been studied extensively in the international bibliography. What has not been materialized however, with only a few incomplete exceptions, is software specialized on the specific problem. Given the huge number of models of the problem, the even greater number of their solution methods ...

Methods A new module in the laboratory information system GLIMS by MIPS Belgium, combines isolate resistance data with patient location data derived from the hospital information system. Antimicrobial resistance patterns of new clinical isolates are compared with previous patterns, and identical resistance patterns are checked at ward level for simultaneous patient stay. If these conditions are...

We consider a generalization of the uncapacitated facility location problem that occurs in planning of optical access networks in telecommunications. Clients are connected to open facilities via depthbounded trees. The total demand of clients served by a tree must not exceed a given tree capacity. We investigate a framework for combining facility location algorithms with a tree-based clustering...

An appearance-based framework for 3D hand shape classification and simultaneous camera viewpoint estimation is presented. Given an input image of a segmented hand, the most similar matches from a large database of synthetic hand images are retrieved. The ground truth labels of those matches, containing hand shape and camera viewpoint information, are returned by the system as estimates for the ...

For simultaneous testing for differences in location, scale, symmetry (or skewness) and tailweight between two unknown continuous distribution functions, a statistic V is proposed. Its quantiles are estimated by the bias-corrected bootstrap. Monte Carlo studies show that the V -test tends to be more robust than its competitor. Asymptotics to justify the use of the bootstrap are presented. The m...
