Never apologize, always explain: Scenes from mathematical life
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this short series of lectures is to give some impression of what life as a mathematician is like. It has taken me to many parts of the world, and enable me to work with extraordinary people from many different cultures. There will be some mathematical content in the lectures. As Julian Havel said, mathematics is not a spectator sport; I will expect some engagement from you. You may also amuse yourself by spotting several appearances by fellows of Caius in the lectures.

How saliency, faces, and sound influence gaze in dynamic social scenes.
Conversation scenes are a typical example in which classical models of visual attention dramatically fail to predict eye positions. Indeed, these models rarely consider faces as particular gaze attractors and never take into account the important auditory information that always accompanies dynamic social scenes. We recorded the eye movements of participants viewing dynamic conversations taking...

It first reviews the origin of SFS; then it maps SFS onto Nida’s linguistic model of translation process and the Interpretive Theory of Translation; it examines in the next section, withi...

Hence, evacuation planning after natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, fire, storms, warfare and nuclear explosions) is vital. Given that natural disasters cause irreparable financial loss and the loss of life ...
