A Computational Model of Control Mechanisms in Spatial Term Use
نویسنده
چکیده
The apprehension of spatial terms like “above” or “left” is crucial for communicating about spatial configurations. One important part of apprehension has been shown to be the selection of a reference frame (RF). Yet, how this selection is controlled has remained unclear so far. This paper presents a computational analysis and model of the control mechanisms involved in RF selection. Developing the model not only gives a detailed account of the mechanisms involved in RF selection, but also provides new insights regarding the overall sequence of steps involved in spatial term apprehension.

SPOT PATTERNS IN GRAY SCOTT MODEL WITH APPLICATION TO EPIDEMIC CONTROL
In this work, we analyse a pair of two-dimensional coupled reaction-diusion equations known as the Gray-Scott model, in which spot patterns have been observed. We focus on stationary patterns, and begin by deriving the asymptotic scaling of the parameters and variables necessary for the analysis of these patterns. A complete bifurcation study of these solutions is presented. The main mathematic...
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of Discrete Time Observer Based Backstepping Controller for a 2DOF Servomechanism
The two degrees of freedom servomechanism has many applications, including in gimbaled seekers. These mechanisms require closed-loop control to perform properly. In this paper, an observer-based multi-input-multi-output hybrid controller is designed for a two-degree-of-freedom servomechanism. Since in the model presented in this paper, disturbances on the mechanism are considered, so an extende...

متن کاملSimvastatin Attenuates Hippocampal MMP-9 Expression in the Streptozotocin-Induced Cognitive Impairment
Background: Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression has been implicated in molecular mechanisms of neurodegenerative disorders, and its abnormal level has been reported in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Some protective mechanisms of statins against neurodegeneration might be mediated by the inhibition of MMP-9 expression. Here, we investigated the effect of simvastatin, on the hippocampal MMP-...
متن کاملA numerical treatment of a reaction-diffusion model of spatial pattern in the embryo
In this work the mathematical model of a spatial pattern in chemical and biological systems is investigated numerically. The proposed model considered as a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation. A computational approach based on finite difference and RBF-collocation methods is conducted to solve the equation with respect to the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The ability and robust...
