Semantic Intensity: a measure of visual relevance
This work deals with the quantification of the effects of discarding large amounts of irrelevant information in sets of images. In particular, the trade-off between the cost of losing information and the benefit of increasing perceptual speed is examined. We look for a measure of such trade-off by a new measure, 'semantic intensity', broadly defined as the ratio of amount of 'meaning' conveyed ...

متن کاملA Change in Energy Intensity: Test of Relationship between Energy Intensity and Income in Iran
In this paper we study the long- term trend of energy intensity for Iran. We use a quadratic function of the logarithm of income to take account of the change in trend of energy intensity and test the non-monotonic relationship between energy intensity and income during 1967- 2002 We find that the long-run coefficient on squared income is negative and significant, indicating a change in trend o...
