The Face Inversion Effect (FIE), the finding that inversion disproportionately affects face recognition, is one of the primary pieces of evidence suggesting that faces are encoded in a qualitatively different way to other stimuli (e.g., along configural as well as featural dimensions). However, when Loftus, Oberg and Dillon (2004) tested the FIE using statetrace analysis (Bamber, 1979), they fo...

The influence of a strong low-level temperature inversion on the occurrence of lee waves, rotors and hydraulic jumps has been investigated using high resolution numerical model simulations. The aim of the work is to develop tools for forecasting hazardous winds downstream of mountains. Two-dimensional simulations were conducted for a range of inversion heights and strengths and a fixed hill sha...

We derive explicit inversion formulae for the attenuated geodesic and horocyclic ray transforms of functions and vector fields on two-dimensional manifolds equipped with the hyperbolic metric. The inversion formulae are based on a suitable complexification of the associated vector fields so as to recast the reconstruction as a Riemann Hilbert problem. The inversion formulae have a very similar ...

Abstract The comprehensive utilization of wood is the main goal log cutting, but knot defects increase difficulty rationally optimizing cutting. Due to lack real shape data in logs, it difficult for detection methods establish a correlation between signal and defect morphology. An image-processing method proposed inversion based on distance regularized level set segmentation (DRLSE) spatial ver...

A three-dimensional (3-D) inversion scheme for fixedoffset ground penetrating radar (GPR) is derived that takes into account the loss in the soil and the planar air–soil interface. The forward model of this inversion scheme is based upon the first Born approximation and the dyadic Green function for a two-layer medium. The forward model is inverted using the Tikhonov-regularized pseudo-inverse ...
