A novel temporal updating approach for probabilistic neural network classifiers was developed by Tian et al. (2000) to account for temporal changes of spectral and temperature features of clouds in the visible and infrared GOES 8 (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) imagery data. In this paper, a new method referred to as moving singular value decomposition (MSVD) is introduced t...

Previous research has emphasized the critical role of negative cognitions as a vulnerability factor in predicting depressive symptoms. Here, the authors argue that processes that function to maintain negative cognitions may serve as a catalyst for the development of depressive symptoms in the context of negative circumstances, and they suggest that poor updating of affective information in work...

Accumulating evidence suggests that thalamic nuclei relay corollary discharge information of saccadic eye movements, enabling the visual system to update the representation of visual space. The present study aimed to explore the effect of thalamic lesions in humans on updating-related cortical processing. Event-related potentials were recorded while four patients with impairments in using corol...

Ontologies can be a powerful tool for structuring knowledge, and they are currently the subject of extensive research. Updating the contents of an ontology or improving its interoperability with other ontologies is an important but difficult process. In this paper, we focus on the presence of vague concepts, which are pervasive in natural language, within the framework of formal ontologies. We ...

I propose an axiomatic framework for belief revision when new information is qualitative, of the form “event A at least as likely event B .” My decision maker need not have beliefs about joint distribution signal she will receive and payoff‐relevant states. three axioms, Exchangeability , Stationarity Reduction to characterize class pseudo‐Bayesian updating rules. The key axiom, requires that o...

Performances of biometric recognition systems can degrade quickly when the input biometric traits exhibit substantial variations compared to the templates collected during the enrolment stage of users. This issue can be addressed using template update methods. In this paper, a novel template update method based on the concept of biometric co-training is presented. In multimodal biometric system...

The present study investigates whether updating, an important function of executive control, can be driven by unconscious reward cues. Participants had to memorize several numbers and update those numbers independently according to a sequence of arithmetic operations. At the beginning of each trial, a reward (1 euro or 5 cents) was presented, either subliminally or supraliminally. Participants ...

There is considerable evidence that the encoding of intended actions in visual space is represented in dynamic, gaze-centered maps, such that each eye movement requires an internal updating of these representations. Here, we review results from our own experiments on human subjects that test the additional geometric constraints to the dynamic updating of these spatial maps during whole-body mot...
