Three experiments indicate that affective cues regulate expression of implicitly measured stereotypes and attitudes. In Experiment 1, negative mood led to less stereotypic bias on the weapon-identification task [Payne, B. K. (2001). Prejudice and perception: The role of automatic and controlled processes in misperceiving a weapon. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 81, 181–192] than ...

An overall systems design approach for a names processing system includes design issues concerning a system config uration, names and spatial databases, and names processing operations (selection, positioning, and plotting). A names processing system requires interactive graphics display, data storage, data manipulation, computer process ing, and plotting capabilities. Names and spatial databas...

Benford’s law predicts the frequency of the first digit of numbers met in a wide range of naturally occurring phenomena. In data sets, following Benford’s law, numbers are started with a small leading digit more often than those with a large leading digit. This law can be used as a tool for detecting fraud and abnormally in the number sets and any fabricated number sets. This can be used as an ...

AbstructThis paper presents a generalized formulation of the extended chirp scaling (ECS) approach for high precision processing of airand spaceborne SAR data. Based on the original chirp scaling function, the ECS algorithm incorporates a new azimuth scaling function and a subaperture approach, which allow an effective phase-preserving processing of ScanSAR data without interpolation for azimut...

this work aims to extract the mineralogical constituents of the lahroud hyperion scene situated in the nw of iran. like the other push-broom sensors, hyperion images suffer from spectral distortions, namely the smile effect. the corresponding spectral curvature is defined as an across-track wavelength shift from the nominal central wavelength, and alters the pixel spectra. the common “column me...

In this paper, we propose an approach of semantically enabled systems for clinical trials. The goals are not only to achieve the interoperability by semantic integration of heterogeneous data in clinical trials, but also to facilitate automatic reasoning and data processing services for decision support systems in various settings of clinical trials. We have implemented the proposed approach in...

INTAMAP is a Web Processing Service for the automatic spatial interpolation of measured point data. Requirements were (i) using open standards for spatial data such as developed in the context of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), (ii) using a suitable environment for statistical modelling and computation, and (iii) producing an integrated, open source solution. The system couples an opensou...

Background: This article explores the effects of attachment style and automatic thoughts on sexual dysfunction and marital commitment, using the path analysis model. This descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 375 married female students in Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Iran, from 2016 to 2017. Methods: According to Morgan and Jersey table and the statistical population (375 pe...

To evaluate disorders of regional wall motion in patients with coronary artery disease, we developed a method to detect the boundary of the cineventriculograms with the aid of minicomputers. Each image of the left ventriculogram, taken at 60 frames/sec, was transferred to computer through a flying spot scanner and stored in the disc. The endocardial margin was automatically traced along the max...

The ability of farmers to acquire knowledge to make decisions is limited by the information quality and applicability. Inconsistencies in information delivery and standards for the integration of information also limit decision making processes. This research uses a similar approach to the Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD) methodology to develop an ICT based framework which can be used to ...
