background and aim: foundations and mechanisms of auditory scene analysis (asa) including segregation and integration were especially reviewed in the study. i focused on the related studies using event-related potentials (erps). recent findings: publications on asa using erps from 1971 to 2014 indicate neural mechanisms of asa in central auditory system. conclusion: asa results in recognition o...

Part 1 of this paper (http://www.paecon.net/PAEReview/issue59/Moseley59.pdf) argued that the marginal productivity theory of distribution has fundamental and insoluble logical problems: (1) the aggregate production function is not a legitimate concept, because capital consists of diverse buildings and equipment that cannot be reasonably aggregated into a total quantity for the economy as a whol...

The most current versions of renal sympathetic denervation have been invented as minimally invasive approaches for the management of drug-resistant hypertension. The anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of renal sympathetic innervation provide a strong background supporting an important role of the renal nerves in the regulation of blood pressure (BP) and volume. In addition, historical data...

individual Plg-Rs to monocyte recruitment may change over time (enolase-1 early vs H2B later). These suggestions imply that different populations of Plg-Rs could be targeted to regulate inflammatory cell recruitment in a temporal or site-specific manner. The resurrection of enolase-1 as a Plg-R by the Wygrecka et al provides impetus for such comparative studies. Conflict-of-interest disclosure:...

death and afterworld are among those vexing questions for humankind. in both eastern and western literature there are many works attempting to describe afterworld and resurrection as a journey to the other world. sanaei’s seir-al-ebad elal-ma’ad and ardaviraf nameh are two examples of such journeys. based on the gnostic experiences of resurrection, the two texts depict exciting and marvelous im...

We pose 3D scene-understanding as a problem of parsing in a grammar. A grammar helps us capture the compositional structure of real-word objects, e.g., a chair is composed of a seat, a back-rest and some legs. Having multiple rules for an object helps us capture structural variations in objects, e.g., a chair can optionally also have arm-rests. Finally, having rules to capture composition at di...

Geospatial information analysts are interested in spatial configurations of objects in satellite imagery and, more importantly, the ability to search a large-scale database of satellite images using spatial configurations as the query mechanism. In this paper we present a new method to model spatial relationships among sets of three or more objects in satellite images for scene indexing and ret...
