Visual scenes typically contain many objects that compete for the control of attention and saccades, on the basis of their intrinsic salience (exogenous control) or their relevance for the goals of the observer (endogenous control). The present chapter reviews the evidence regarding the relationship between endogenous and exogenous attention and saccades. Furthermore, a competitive integration ...

Clogging of Trash at the Micro Hydro-Power Plant can reduce discharge, head, and micro-hydro production. racks are currently less efficient in solving clogging, so it needs appropriate technology innovation with Horizontal rack Diverter (HTDT) which functions to get rid or divert Trash. Diversion as well increasing stabilizing discharge is important that adding a flow steering valve needed (HTD...

The results obtained from 17 030 samples of cane taken by grab samplers at five Huletts mills during the 1975176 season were analysed for extraneous matter. They indicate a mean of approximately 10 0/, on gross cane. The benefits of a reduction to 7 % are estimated and a proposed programme to achieve this target is outlined. Introduction Oliver Lyle in one of his entertaining and highly informa...

As natural resources become less abundant, we naturally become more interested in, and more adept at utilisation of waste materials. In doing this we are bringing to bear a ploy which is of key importance in learning | or so I argue in this paper. In thèTruth from Trash' model, learning is viewed as a process which uses environmental feedback to assemble fortuitous sensory predispositions (sens...

Abstract Despite global efforts to monitor, mitigate against, and prevent trash (mismanaged solid waste) pollution, no harmonized typology system has been widely adopted worldwide. This impedes the merging of datasets comparative analyses. We addressed this problem by 1) assessing state comparability, 2) developing a standardized framework relational tables tools, 3) informing practitioners abo...
