When are synchronization errors small?
We address the question of bounds on the synchronization error for the case of nearly identical nonlinear systems. It is pointed out that negative largest conditional Lyapunov exponents of the synchronization manifold are not sufficient to guarantee a small synchronization error and that one has to find bounds for the deformation of the manifold due to perturbations. We present an analytic boun...
متن کاملPositioning errors and efficiency in fiber spectrographs
The use of wide-field multi-object fiber-input spectrographs for large redshift surveys introduces the possibility of variations in the observed signal-to-noise ratio across the survey area due to errors in positioning the fibers with respect to the target image positions, leading to position-dependent errors in the survey catalog. This paper brings together a comprehensive description of the s...
متن کاملTime-Order Errors in Duration Judgment Are Independent of Spatial Positioning
Time-order errors (TOEs) occur when the discriminability between two stimuli are affected by the order in which they are presented. While TOEs have been studied since the 1860s, it is unknown whether the spatial properties of a stimulus will affect this temporal phenomenon. In this experiment, we asked whether perceived duration, or duration discrimination, might be influenced by whether two in...
متن کاملCommon positioning errors in panoramic radiography: A review
Professionals performing radiographic examinations are responsible for maintaining optimal image quality for accurate diagnoses. These professionals must competently execute techniques such as film manipulation and processing to minimize patient exposure to radiation. Improper performance by the professional and/or patient may result in a radiographic image of unsatisfactory quality that can al...
متن کاملWhen errors are rewarding.
For social beings like humans, detecting one's own and others' errors is essential for efficient goal-directed behavior. Although one's own errors are always negative events, errors from other persons may be negative or positive depending on the social context. We used neuroimaging to disentangle brain activations related to error and reward processing, by manipulating the social context (coope...
