Previous studies have focused on the ability of cognitive symptom validity tests to identify simulated malingering or distinguish between clinical samples of individuals at low or high risk of cognitive symptom exaggeration. However, no published studies have examined the latent structure of negative response bias on cognitive tests: measures of cognitive symptom exaggeration may evaluate a con...

We investigate the role of prosody in child-directed speech of three English speaking adults using data collected for the Human Speechome Project, an ecologically valid, longitudinal corpus collected from the home of a family with a young child. We looked at differences in prosody between child-directed and adult-directed speech. We also looked at the change in prosody of child-directed speech ...

Kurzfassung: In diesem Beitrag wird eine umfassende Bibliothek mit arithmetischen und kryptographischen Funktionen vorgestellt. Diese Bibliothek wurde in VHDL entwickelt und unterstützt sowohl Langzahlarithmetik als auch Multiple Precision Arithmetic (MPA). Dadurch eignet sich die Bibliothek insbesondere zur simulatorunabhängigen Simulation und Verifikation kryptographischer Prozessoren, die au...

A common variant of caricature relies on exaggerating characteristics of a shape that differs from a reference template, usually the distinctive traits of a human portrait. This work introduces a caricature tool that interactively emphasizes the differences between two three-dimensional meshes. They are represented in the manifold harmonic basis of the shape to be caricatured, providing intrins...

This paper studies a class of decision-making problems under incomplete information which we call “aggregation games.” It departs from the mainstream information aggregation literature in two respects: information is aggregated by averaging rather than majority rule, and each player selects from a continuum of reports rather than making a binary choice. Each member of a group receives a private...

Exaggeration is often used in art and entertainment to capture the interest and attention of an audience. We present an approach to automatically exaggerate the distinctive features of 3D faces which contain skin detail down to the pores. Mesh adaptation and model simplification are used to produce two low resolution approximations of the face. The detail of the original high resolution face is...

Synesthesia is a phenomenon in which an experience in one domain is accompanied by an involuntary secondary experience in another, unrelated domain; in classical synesthesia, these associations are arbitrary and idiosyncratic. Cross-modal correspondences refer to universal associations between seemingly unrelated sensory features, e.g., auditory pitch and visual size. Some argue that these phen...
