Interpreting the functional diversity of vegetation is important in unravelling the relationship between environmental change, community composition and ecosystem processes. Functional diversity is the range and distribution of functional trait values i ...
An increasing awareness of the scientific and technological value of the automatic understanding of faceto- face social interaction has motivated in the past few years a surge of interest in the devising of computational techniques for conversational analy ...
We aim to create a model of emotional reactive virtual humans. This model will help to define realistic behavior for virtual characters based on emotions and events in the virtual environment to which they react. A large set of pre-recorded animations will ...
The context of this work is the search for realism and believability of Virtual Humans. Our contribution to achieve this goal is to enable Virtual Humans (VH) to react to spontaneous events in virtual environments (VE). In order to reflect the individualit ...
The search for the perfect virtual character is on, but the moment users interact with characters, any illusion that we’ve found it is broken. Adding memory capabilities to models of human emotions, personality, and behavior traits is a step toward a more ...

Objectives: The aim of the study was to examine whether the postpsychotic decline in IQ during schizophrenia coincides with psychopathological deterioration or it is a state-independent premorbid impairment. Methods: The IQ score of 32 schizophrenic patien ...
The method of multiple heterogeneous ant colonies with information exchange (MHACIE) is presented in this paper with emphasis on the speed of finding the optimal solution and the corresponding computational complexity. The proposed method which is inspired ...
Although exposure to substantial stress has a major impact on the development of depression, there is considerable variability in the susceptibility of individuals to the adverse effects of stress. The personality trait of high anxiety has been identified ...
1.Many studies have identified relationships between plant reproductive behaviour and environmental conditions. However, they have all been based on cross-species analysis and take no account of the relative abundance of species with vegetation. 2.Using tw ...
Model Predictive Control has been implemented on a large drainage canal system in the Netherlands. This water system can be represented as a reservoir with uncertain inflow due to rainfall runoff and a water level that has to be kept within a certain range ...
