At about the same time (approximately 1989), R. Liu introduced the notion of simplicial depth and R. Randles the notion of interdirections. These completely independent and seemingly unrelated initiatives, serving different purposes in nonparametric multivariate analysis, have spawned significant activity within their quite different respective domains. A surprising and fruitful connection betw...

The need to cover the exposed periostium has meant that a number of materials including mucosal and skin grafts are regarded as suitable for grafting in oral and maxillofacial surgery. To circumvent the disadvantages of other materials such as skin, biological membranes have been suggested as options, including fetal membrane. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the clinical effi...

Maximising profit is an important target for industries in a competitive world and it possible to achieve this by improving the system availability. Engineers have employed many techniques improve systems availability, such as adding redundant devices or scheduling maintenance strategies. However, idea of using simultaneously has not received enough attention. The authors present paper recently...

Previous work [Prince, S. J. D, & Eagle, R. A. (1999). Size-disparity correlation in human binocular depth perception. Proceedings of the Royal Society: Biological Sciences, 266, 1361-1365] has demonstrated that disparity sign discrimination performance in isolated bandpass patterns is supported at disparities much larger than a phase disparity model might predict. One possibility is that this ...

Monocular localization of non-abutting stimuli and stereoscopic localization of the same second-order targets are performed with the same precision (Wilcox, L.M. & Hess, R.F. (1996) Is the site of non-linear filtering in stereopsis before or after binocular combination? Vision Research, 36, 391-399). Further, both tasks show a similar dependence on the scale of the stimulus. Since prior studies...
