The spatio-temporal variability of the mountain snow cover determines the avalanche danger, snow water storage, permafrost distribution and the local distribution of fauna and flora. Using a new type of terrestrial laser scanner (TLS), which is particularl ...
Navigation is defined as the capability of planning and performing a path from the current position towards a desired location. Different types, or strategies, of navigation are used by animals depending on the task they are trying to solve. Visible goals ...
Natural ecosystems are characterized by striking diversity of form and functions and yet exhibit deep symmetries emerging across scales of space, time, and organizational complexity. Species-area relationships and species-abundance distributions are exampl ...
Mobile robots are gradually appearing in our daily environments. In order to autonomously navigate in real world environments and interact with objects and humans, robots are facing various major technological challenges. Among the required key competences ...
The human auditory system is comprised of specialized but interacting anatomic and functional pathways encoding object, spatial, and temporal information. We review how learning-induced plasticity manifests along these pathways and to what extent there are ...
Emerging models for context-aware role-based access control pose challenging requirements over policy administration. In this paper we address the issues raised by the decentralized administration of a spatially-aware access control model in a mobile setti ...
A crucial aspect of the human mind is the ability to project the self along the time line to past and future. It has been argued that such self-projection is essential to re-experience past experiences and predict future events. In-depth analysis of a nove ...
Emotionally charged experiences alter memory storage via the activation of hormonal systems. Previously, we have shown that compared with rats trained for a massed spatial learning task in the water maze in warm water (25 degrees C), animals that were trai ...
Securing access to data in location- based services and mobile applications requires the definition of spatially aware access- control systems. Even if some approaches have already been proposed either in the context of geographic database systems or conte ...
