Repetitive prestimulation, in the form of click trains, is known to alter a wide range of cognitive and perceptual judgments. To date, no research has explored whether click trains also influence subjective preferences. This is plausible because preference is related to perceptual fluency and clicks may increase fluency, or, because preference is related to arousal and clicks may increase arous...

Delphinids produce large numbers of short duration, broadband echolocation clicks which may be useful for species classification in passive acoustic monitoring efforts. A challenge in echolocation click classification is to overcome the many sources of variability to recognize underlying patterns across many detections. An automated unsupervised network-based classification method was developed...

The auditory P50 ERP component has previously been studied either in the repetitive click or the conditioning-testing (C-T) paradigm. For 20 subjects, we compared 4 repetitive click and 4 C-T protocols in a single experimental session with identical recording techniques and with interclick intervals comparable to the C-T intervals. In the C-T protocols, a long interval between click pairs ensur...

With eye gaze tracking technology entering the consumer market, there is an increased interest in using it as an input device, similar to the mouse. This holds promise for situations where a typical desk space is not available. While gaze seems natural for pointing, it is inherently inaccurate, which makes the design of fast and accurate methods for clicking targets (“click alternatives”) diffi...

Click fraud endangers the advertising effectiveness of search engine advertising and thus imperils the business model of many search engine providers. Search engine providers need to address click fraud and attest the reliability and accuracy of the payper-click accounting system. Advertisers have to factor click fraud in the decision process concerning a search engine advertising campaign. A p...

Suppose an ad network decides that a given click-through is invalid (or “fraudulent”). The implication is that the ad network will not bill the advertiser for that click-through. On the other hand, if the ad network decides that the click-through was valid, they could charge full price. Therefore, arguably, the ad network is “leaving money on the table” by marking click-throughs invalid. As suc...

Copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions (CuAAC or click chemistry) are convenient methods to easily couple various pharmacophores or bioactive molecules. A new series of 1,2,3-triazole-linked nucleoside-amino acid conjugates have been designed and synthesized in 57-76% yields using CuAAC. The azido group was introduced on the 5'-position of uridine or the acyclic analogue using the tosyl-a...
