There and back again: A circuit extraction tale

There and Back Again

For the past 40 years, researchers studied the relationship between mental disorder and terrorist involvement. The literature developed in 4 paradigms, each of which differs in terms of their empirical evidence, the specific mental disorders studied, and their conceptualizations of terrorist involvement. These paradigms have not, however, witnessed linear and incremental improvements upon 1 ano...

There and Back Again: The Corticobulbar Loop

Feedback is a ubiquitous anatomical feature of sensory processing in vertebrates. In this issue of Neuron, two papers (Boyd et al., 2012, and Markopoulos et al., 2012) analyze the features of feedback from olfactory cortex to olfactory bulb.

From MIT SketchML to InkML or There and Back Again

The MIT Sketch Markup Language (SketchML) and the Ink Markup Language (InkML) are both used for sketch data representation. Techniques for exchanging sketch data between the two formats, however, are currently not readily available. In this article, we present a data binding solution for two-way conversion between SketchML and InkML. We show how to transform SketchML files to InkML archiving an...

From Notation to Semantics: There and Back Again

Mathematical notation is a structured, open, and ambiguous language. In order to support mathematical notation in MKM applications one must necessarily take into account presentational as well as semantic aspects. The former are required to create a familiar, comfortable, and usable interface to interact with. The latter are necessary in order to process the information meaningfully. In this pa...
