Data from 1006 pigs selected for breeding and subsequently scored at 22-24 weeks of age were used to estimate heritabilities for conformation traits. Front wrists, front pasterns, back hocks, back pasterns, front view, rear view and back shape were each subjectively scored by a single operator. For the individual traits heritability estimates ranged from high (0.42±0.09 for front pasterns) to n...

This paper describes the contribution to speech perception given by animations of intra-oral articulations. 18 subjects were asked to identify the words in acoustically degraded sentences in three different presentation modes: acoustic signal only, audiovisual with a front view of a synthetic face and an audiovisual with both front face view and a side view, where tongue movements were visible ...

1389-1286/$ see front matter Crown Copyright doi:10.1016/j.comnet.2011.05.012 E-mail address: [email protected] We survey the state-of-the-art technologies in Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) network reconfiguration. Our focus is the strategies and triggering methods. We compare the proposed technologies in the literature from different perspectives: traffic-changes triggered vs. other ev...

A bstract In this article, we study the potential of direct detection experiments to explore parameter space general non-standard neutrino interactions (NSI) via solar scattering. Due their sensitivity neutrino-electron and neutrino-nucleus scattering, provides a complementary view NSI landscape that spallation sources oscillation experiments. particular, large admixture tau neutrinos in flux m...

The reform agenda for public sector development, including e-government, contains simplification as a pivotal concern. It should be easier for the citizens to interact with different branches of the public sector. Administrative burdens should be relieved through the use of modern IT. One such constituent is egov portals (based on a life-event view) that should simplify for the citizen. This pa...

We introduce the curve spread as an efficient descriptor of front-view gait of humans walking towards a camera. The curve spread is a compact two-dimensional representation of the time-variations of a moving body outline. Most gait biometrics employ features derived from side-view videos because limb swings are more pronounced from the side than from the front. However, side-view observations a...
