We have experimentally characterized the benefits of pulse coding in coherent-detection Brillouin-based hybrid sensors, achieving 15 dB improvement in two-way sensing distance at same resolution in simultaneous strain and temperature sensing. ...
The perception of a visual target can be strongly influenced by flanking stimuli. In static displays, performance on the target improves when the distance to the flanking elements increases-presumably because feature pooling and integration vanishes with d ...
In perceptual learning, performance usually improves when observers train with one type of stimulus, for example, a bisection stimulus. Roving denotes the situation when, instead of one, two or more types of stimuli are presented randomly interleaved, for ...
Operating experimental devices have provided key inputs to the design process for ITER axisymmetric control. In particular, experiments have quantified controllability and robustness requirements in the presence of realistic noise and disturbance environme ...
Increased market pressure, sharp competition and globalisation are some of the main challenges faced nowadays by companies, pushing them to continuously evaluate the suitability of their business model and to look for new opportunities. Electronic commerce ...
Motion estimation methods based on differential techniques proved to be very useful in the context of video analysis, but have a limited employment in classical video compression because, though accurate, the dense motion vector field they produce requires ...
We studied the influence of signal variability on human and model observers for detection tasks with realistic simulated masses superimposed on real patient mammographic backgrounds and synthesized mammographic backgrounds (clustered lumpy backgrounds, CLB ...
This paper presents a new hybrid A/D conversion principle based on the combination of an incremental conversion for the most significant part of the result and on a cyclic conversion for the least significant part. The proposed approach exhibits a resoluti ...
This paper focuses on the scheduling problem of minimizing makespan for a given set of jobs in a two-stage hybrid flowshop subject to a product-mix ratio constraint. There are identical parallel machines at the first stage of the hybrid flowshop, while the ...
In a bisection discrimination task, two vertical outer lines delineate an interval which is bisected by a centre line. Observers indicate whether this centre line is closer to the left or right outer line. Performance in this task improves strongly with tr ...
