The category shift literature suggests that rule-based classification, an important form of explicit learning, is mediated by two separate learned associations: a stimulus-to-label association that associates stimuli and category labels, and a label-to-response association that associates category labels and responses. Three experiments investigate whether information-integration classification...

Repeated exposure to an auditory stimulus leads to habituation of the electrophysiological and immediate-early-gene (IEG) expression response in the auditory system. A novel auditory stimulus reinstates this response in a form of dishabituation. This has been interpreted as the start of new memory formation for this novel stimulus. Changes in the location of an otherwise identical auditory stim...

Both the research community and developers in industry have identified the need for a clearly defined vocabulary and programming framework for location technologies. A layered Location Stack that provides appropriate abstractions, common terminology, and a clear API has been proposed in the last edition of WMCSA. This paper relates the experience gained in applying the Location Stack abstractio...

Location privacy is of utmost concern for location-based services. It is the property that a person’s location is revealed to other entities, such as a service provider or the person’s friends, only if this release is strictly necessary and authorized by the person. We study how to achieve location privacy for a service that alerts people of nearby friends. Here, location privacy guarantees tha...

Source localization using passive sensor arrays has been an active research problem for many years. Most near-field source localization algorithms involve two separate estimations, namely, relative time-delay estimations and source location estimation. In this paper, a one-step maximum-likelihood parametric source localization algorithm is proposed based on the maximum correlation between time ...
