Download or read book Simultaneous Statistical Inference written by Rupert G. Jr. Miller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simultaneous Statistical Inference, which was published originally in 1966 by McGraw-Hill Book Company, went out of print in 1973. Since then, it has been available from University Microfilms International in xerox form. With this new edition Springer-Verlag has republished the original edition along with my review article on multiple comparisons from the December 1977 issue of the Journal of the American Statistical Association. This review article covered developments in the field from 1966 through 1976. A few minor typographical errors in the original edition have been corrected in this new edition. A new table of critical points for the studentized maximum modulus is included in this second edition as an addendum. The original edition included the table by K. C. S. Pillai and K. V. Ramachandran, which was meager but the best available at the time. This edition contains the table published in Biometrika in 1971 by G. 1. Hahn and R. W. Hendrickson, which is far more comprehensive and therefore more useful. The typing was ably handled by Wanda Edminster for the review article and Karola Decleve for the changes for the second edition. My wife, Barbara, again cheerfully assisted in the proofreading. Fred Leone kindly granted permission from the American Statistical Association to reproduce my review article. Also, Gerald Hahn, Richard Hendrickson, and, for Biometrika, David Cox graciously granted permission to reproduce the new table of the studentized maximum modulus. The work in preparing the review article was partially supported by NIH Grant ROI GM21215.

Download or read book Simultaneity written by Susie Vrobel and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an interdisciplinary approach to the question of how observer-participant perspectives are generated, what constrains them and how they may be modified. These questions are of vital importance and must be addressed in any discipline before formulating a hypothesis or designing a model about reality. Both epistemological questions about the nature of temporal nested structures and practical applications of our ability to contextualize are discussed. The resulting temporal observer-participant perspectives reflect approaches to the concept of simultaneity from the viewpoints of philosophers, logicians, cyberneticists and systems theorists, mathematicians, psychologists, medical practitioners, physicists, educationists, economists and musicologists. Although the main focus is on the cognitive sciences, as constraints to observer perspectives arise primarily from this field, the book will appeal to researchers of all disciplines and interested layman readers.

Download or read book Simultaneous EEG and FMRI written by Markus Ullsperger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major challenges in science is to study and understand the human brain. Numerous methods examining different aspects of brain functions have been developed and employed. To study systemic interactions brain networks in vivo, non-invasive methods such as electroencephalography (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) have been used with great success. However, each of these methods can map only certain, quite selective aspects of brain function while missing others; and the inferences on neuronal processes and information flow are often rather indirect. To overcome these shortcomings of single methods, researchers have attempted to combine methods in order to make optimal use of their advantages while compensating their disadvantages. Hence, it is not surprising that soon after the introduction of fMRI as a neuroimaging method the possibilities of combinations with EEG have been explored.This book is intended to aid researchers who plan to set up a simultaneous EEG-fMRI laboratory and those who are interested in integrating electrophysiological and hemodynamic data. As will be obvious from the different chapters, this is a dynamically developing field in which several approaches are being tested, validated and compared. Currently, there is no one best solution for all problems available, but many promising techniques are emerging. This book shall give a comprehensive overview of these techniques. In addition, it points to open questions and directions for future research.

Download or read book Game Theory and Experimental Games written by Andrew M. Colman and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-06-06 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Game Theory and Experimental Games: The Study of Strategic Interaction focuses on the development of game theory, taking into consideration empirical research, theoretical formulations, and research procedures involved. The book proceeds with a discussion on the theory of one-person games. The individual decision that a player makes in these kinds of games is noted as influential as to the outcome of these games. This discussion is followed by a presentation of pure coordination games and minimal situation. The ability of players to anticipate the choices of others to achieve a mutually beneficial outcome is emphasized. A favorable social situation is also influential in these kinds of games. The text moves forward by presenting studies on various kinds of competitive games. The research studies presented are coupled with empirical evidence and discussion designed to support the claims that are pointed out. The book also discusses several kinds of approaches in the study of games. Voting as a way to resolve multi-person games is also emphasized, including voting procedures, the preferences of voters, and voting strategies. The book is a valuable source of data for readers and scholars who are interested in the exploration of game theories.

Download or read book Visual Memory written by Timothy F. Brady and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring contributions from world-leading researchers, this book explores the relationship between visual perception and memory. It bridges the traditionally separate fields of vision science and recognition memory and deals with an interdisciplinary set of perspectives combining research in psychology, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence. The book makes new connections between the wealth of research from each respective field, developing the idea that visuospatial memory is our best memory system. This volume traverses topics grounded in both empirical study and real-world applications, including working (short-term) memory, long-term memory, the neuroscience of memory, development of memory over the lifespan, autobiographical memories, false memories, and eyewitness testimony. It argues that an increased knowledge of how visuospatial memory works can lead to an improved understanding of the basic features of memory, as well as providing strategies for memory improvement. The book features cutting edge visual memory research, where converging methods in psychophysics, cognitive neuroscience, and computational modeling have been propelling the field forward. Visual Memory is an essential read for all students and researchers of memory and visual perception. It will also be useful for researchers and students in related fields including human-computer interaction, data visualization, cognitive science, and cognitive enhancement.

Download or read book MRSLAM Multi Robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping written by João Alexandre Simões Martins and published by University of Coimbra. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays, a collection of two or more autonomous mobile agents working together are denoted as teams or simply societies of mobile robots. In Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) robots are allowed to coordinate with each other in order to achieve a specic goal. In these systems, robots are far less capable as an entity, but the real power lies in the cooperation of the team. The simplicity of MRS has produced a wide set of applications such as in military tasks , searching for survivors in disaster hit areas, parallel and simultaneous transportations of vehicles and delivery of payloads. The success of single-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) in the past two decades has led to research on Multi-Robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (MRSLAM). A team of robots is able to map an unknown environment faster and more and reliably. However, MRSLAM raises several challenging problems, including map fusion, unknown robot poses and scalability issues. Rao-Blackwellized Particle Filters (RBPFs) have been demonstrated as an eective solution to the problem of single robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), and a few extensions to teams of robots exist. However, these approaches are usually characterized by strict assumptions on both communication bandwidth and prior knowledge on relative poses between teammates. In this dissertation, we describe in detail a distributed MRSLAM approach using RBPF in the case of possibly constrained communication and unknown relative initial poses using Robot Operating System (ROS). We consider the environment as a two dimensional space with several obstacles, which are explored by a team of cooperative mobile robots, equipped with laser sensors. In order to eciently tackle the problem, the cooperation between agents and the memory space available for observations storage must be taken into account. Experimental results using a team of up to two robots in a large indoor area show the robustness and performance of the approach.
