Numerous studies have confirmed that when selecting habitat birds can use social information acquired from observing other individuals, and many aspects of this social information can be capitalized upon to manage bird populations. The conservation implications of attraction to conspecifics are especially promising for management, and as ...

This paper presents a novel social interaction relation, attraction (interaction that would lead to occlusion for inter-object) for multiobject tracking to handle occlusion issue. We propose to build attraction by utilizing spatial-temporal information from 2D image plane, such as decomposed distance between objects. Then pairwise attraction force is obtained by the modeled attraction. Lastly, ...

In this paper, an R-analytical function and the sequence of its Taylor polynomials (which are Lyapunov functions different from those of Vanelli & Vidyasagar (1985, Automatica, 21(1):6 9–80)) is presented, in order to determine and approximate the domain of attraction of the exponentially asymptotically stable zero steady state of an autonomous, R-analytical system of differential equations. Th...

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the experiential avoidance, explicit and implicit attraction beliefs in obese and normal body mass index (BMI) females. Materials and Methods: This was an analytic cross sectional study. About 400 females (between 20-43 years old) were selected from nutrition and obesity clinics by convenience sampling method. The 40 items avoidance questionnaire...

Research interest in iterative multipoint schemes to solve nonlinear problems has increased recently because of the drawbacks point-to-point methods, which need high-order derivatives increase order convergence. However, this is not only key element classify schemes. We aim design new fixed point classes without memory, that improve or bring together existing ones different areas such as comput...
