Perceived quality in game audio is not a question of audio quality alone. As audio is usually only a part in an overall game concept consisting of graphics, physics, artificial intelligence, user input, feedback and so forth, audio has been considered to play a relatively minor role in the overall experience that a game provides. Consequently, a lot of effort has been put into providing near ph...

Cinema, a vehicle of social transformation sheds light on different aspects of mental illness. Due to its dramatic and stigmatising depictions, it often spreads a negative aspect of psychiatric disorders and the patients who are suffering from them. Though it brings out a few positive and inspiring stories, they are sparse in comparison to its negative views. Here, we are going to describe the ...

‘If cinema does not give us the presence of the body and cannot give it to us, this is perhaps also because it sets itself a different objective: it spreads an “experimental night” or a white space over us; it works with “dancing seeds’ and a “luminous dust”; it affects the visible with a fundamental disturbance, and the world with a suspension, which contradicts all natural perception. What it...

The JISC funded IRIOS (Integrated Research Input and Output System) project developed a demonstrator integrating research information input (projects) and output (publications) datasets allowing data to be linked and exported in CERIF format. C4D (CERIF for Datasets), extends this platform to manage research datasets as outputs from research projects. Although research datasets vary and are ext...

The overall aim of CERIF for Datasets (C4D) is to develop a framework for incorporating metadata into CERIF (the Common European Research Information Format) such that research organisations and researchers can better discover and make use of existing and future research datasets, wherever they may be held. CERIF provides a standardised way of managing and exchanging research information and ha...

On many traditional theories of belief, your belief state is represented by an assignment of credences to propositions, or sets of possible worlds. If you are rational, your credence distribution will be a probability measure. Traditional theories of belief fit with a standard Bayesian theory of rational belief change: on learning a proposition, you must update your belief state by conditionali...

because of its widespread needs in different scientific fields, statistics and probability theory have gained great importance and medical students as well as students of other medically related disciplines including nursing need to use them especially in their research projects in undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate schools. this article deals with the question of finding the most effecti...
