The idea of designing a new map projection via combination of two projections is well established. Some of the most popular world map projections in use today were devised in this manner. One construction method is to combine two source projections along a common parallel (for example, Goode’s homolosine combines the sinusoidal and the Mollweide projections). A second method calculates the arit...

Population projections are increasingly utilised as tools for understanding and modelling the economic, social, and environmental futures of sparsely populated areas. This study examines issues around “fit for purpose” for the application of projections to remote contexts. We focus on projections made for the Northern Territory of Australia, a jurisdiction in the north of the country, to assess...

Cortico-hypoglossal projections were investigated in 11 patients with unifocal ischaemic lesions of different brainstem levels using transcranial magnetic stimulation. Lesion topography was documented by MRI studies. In seven patients the projections to the ipsi- and contralateral hypoglossal nuclei were separately affected. Pontine lesions at the ventral paramedian base close to the midline af...

We produce probabilistic projections of population for all countries based on probabilistic projections of fertility, mortality, and migration. We compare our projections to those from the United Nations' Probabilistic Population Projections, which uses similar methods for fertility and mortality but deterministic migration projections. We find that uncertainty in migration projection is a subs...

Formal concept analysis (FCA) is a well-founded method for data analysis and has many applications in data mining. Pattern structures is an extension of FCA for dealing with complex data such as sequences or graphs. However the computational complexity of computing with pattern structures is high and projections of pattern structures were introduced for simplifying computation. In this paper we...
