Estimation of intersection turning movements is one of the key inputs required for a variety of transportation analysis, including intersection geometric design, signal timing design, traffic impact assessment, and transportation planning. Conventional approaches that use manual techniques for estimation of turning movements are insensitive to congestion. The drawbacks of the manual techniques ...

This work is concerned with autoregressive prediction of turning points in financial price sequences. Such turning points are critical local extrema points along a series, which mark the start of new swings. Predicting the future time of such turning points or even their early or late identification slightly before or after the fact has useful applications in economics and finance. Building on ...

In recent years there has been interest in possible differential behavioral functions of the core and shell subregions of the nucleus accumbens. The present study compared the effects of accumbens core and shell injections of (+)-amphetamine on turning behavior in rats; the turning effects of the selective D2 antagonist (-)-eticlopride injected into the shell were also tested. Rats (n = 28) wer...
