BACKGROUND Normal reading requires eye guidance and activation of lexical representations so that words in text can be identified accurately. However, little is known about how the visual content of text supports eye guidance and lexical activation, and thereby enables normal reading to take place. METHODS AND FINDINGS To investigate this issue, we investigated eye movement performance when r...

eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (emdr) process encompasses several nervous system components such as medulla, pons, midbrain, cerebellum, basal ganglia, parietal, frontal and occipital lobes. the role of eye movement (em) has been documented previously in relation with cognitive processing mechanisms. by emdr we can reach some parts of memory which were inaccessible before and als...

Parallel simulation of incompressible fluid flows is considered on networks of homogeneous workstations. Coarse-grain parallelization of a Taylor–Galerkin/pressure–correction finite element algorithm are discussed, taking into account network communication costs. The main issues include the parallelization of system assembly, and iterative and direct solvers, that are of common interest to fini...

We propose an algorithm that integrates geometry parametrization and mesh movement using the control points of a B-spline mesh. An initial mesh is created using B-spline volumes in such a way that the control points mimic a coarse grid. The control points corresponding to the surface nodes are adopted as the design variables. Mesh movement is achieved by applying a standard movement algorithm t...

We describe the parallelization of a computer program for the adaptive mesh refinement simulation of variable density, viscous, incompressible fluid flows for low Mach number combustion. The adaptive methodology is based on the use of local grids superimposed on a coarse grid to achieve sufficient resolution in the solution. The key elements of the approach to parallelization are a dynamic load...

In this paper we present a study of the cosmic flow from the point of view of how clusterings at different dynamical regimes in an expanding universe evolve according to a ‘coarse-grained’ partitioning of their ranked energy distribution. By analysing a ΛCDM cosmological simulation from the Virgo Project, we find that cosmic flows evolve in an orderly sense, when tracked from their coarse-grain...

We describe a system that employs the use of an omnidirectional camera in tandem with a pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera in order to characterize traffic flows, analyze vehicles, and detect and capture anomalous behaviors. The framework is such that we can generate long-term statistics of traffic patterns while still monitoring unusual activity, even apart from the traffic zone. We use the PTZ in con...

The extraction of a clear and simple footprint of the structure of large, weighted and directed networks is a general problem that has relevance for many applications. An important example is seen in origin-destination matrices, which contain the complete information on commuting flows, but are difficult to analyze and compare. We propose here a versatile method, which extracts a coarse-grained...
