Motion segmentation involves identifying regions of the image that correspond to independently moving objects. The number of independently moving objects, and type of motion model for each of the objects is unknown a priori. In order to perform motion segmentation, the problems of model selection, robust estimation and clustering must all be addressed simultaneously. Here we place the three pro...

A critical parameter of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) is the number of dimensions a user can control independently. One way to increment this number without increasing the mental effort required to operate the system is to stimulate several sensory modalities simultaneously, and to distinguish brain activity patterns when the user focuses attention to different elements of this multisensory ...

in this paper, three-stage assembly flowshop scheduling is considered with respect to minimizing bi-objectives, namely mean flow time and mean tardiness. this problem is a model of production systems, which several production operations are done simultaneously and independently, and then produced components are collected and transferred to an assembly stage for the final operation. in this mode...

W hile working in the classroom with orthopedically handicapped and multihandicapped pre-school children, the need arose for a piece of equipment that would permit a child to work with tactile stimulation activities as independently as possible while also freeing the teacher and aide to move about and work with several children simultaneously instead of being restricted to a one-to-one si tuation.

We show that one single experiment can test simultaneously and independently both the nonclassicality of states and measurements by the violation or fulfillment of classical bounds on the statistics. Nonideal measurements affected by imperfections can be characterized by two bounds depending on whether we test the ideal measurement or the real one.

The requirement to orient attention in space and time usually occurs simultaneously. Previous reports were indecisive regarding possible interactions between temporal and spatial orienting. The present study examined whether temporal and spatial orienting can operate simultaneously and independently in the framework of a detection task. Participants completed three consecutive target detection ...
