Website Complexity: Objective versus Subjective Measures

Site complexity has been defined both as a single construct and as multi-dimension construct and operationalized in terms of objective measures or user perceptions. In this research, we distinguish between objective and subjective (perceived) site complexity and examine the relationship between the two. Objective site complexity is measured by how varied a website is; subjective site complexity...

Dissociating conscious and unconscious learning with objective and subjective measures.

According to functionalist theories, consciousness can be defined by the functions that it serves and by the way it contributes to cognition. For example, when trying to establish dissociations between conscious and unconscious knowledge, conscious representations would be identified by the fact that they allow cognitive control or successful identification or recollection, assessed by verbal r...

Comparing objective and subjective error measures for color constancy

We compare an objective and a subjective performance measure for color constancy algorithms. Eight hyper-spectral images were rendered under a neutral reference illuminant and four chromatic illuminants (Red, Green, Yellow, Blue). The scenes rendered under the chromatic illuminants were color corrected by 5 color constancy algorithms that are based on zero-, firstand second-order image statisti...

Identifying Fuel Poverty Using Objective and Subjective Measures

The UK Government is committed to abolishing fuel poverty amongst vulnerable households by the year 2010 and in the general population by 2016, but definition and measurement of fuel poverty remains controversial. We define a new measure of subjective household experience and explore links between this measure and the official objective definition, using a unique data set and the Family Expendi...
