AIM The purpose of this report is to provide a brief literature review of the bone-added osteotome sinus floor elevation (BAOSFE) procedure and to present a case utilizing this technique. BACKGROUND Implant placement in the posterior maxillary region is often compromised due to anatomic limitations. In clinical situations where there is inadequate vertical bone dimension, the BAOSFE technique...

Radar signature data can be presented in one dimension, as a dBsm level as a function of vehicle aspect angle. In a synthetic aperture radar image, data is presented in a twodimensional image: as an intensity level represented by a color located in both vehicle down range and cross range. When the radar antennas are translated both vertically and horizontally, radar data is located three-dimens...

We describe a functional modeling of face movements during speech. The data consist of 65 face marker positions in 3D coordinates measured while a speaker read a corpus. An arbitrary orthogonal factor analysis followed by a principal component analysis on the data resulted in a set of five interpretable factors that explains 87% of variance. The first factor that accounts for the vertical jaw m...

A head-mounted camera was used to measure head direction. The camera was mounted to the forehead of 20 6and 20 12-month-old infants while they watched an object held at 11 horizontal ( 80 to þ 80 ) and 9 vertical ( 48 to þ 50 ) positions. The results showed that the head always moved less than required to be on target. Below 30 in the horizontal dimension, the head undershoot of object directio...

Reaction time is known to depend on spatial stimulus-response compatibility in both the horizontal and the vertical dimensions. However, if both dimensions are varied in the same task, horizontal but not vertical compatibility affects performance, even if subjects are instructed to attend to the vertical dimension only (Nicoletti & Umiltà, 1984). Experiment 1 compared the effect of horizontal a...

This paper examines a monopoly platform’s strategy in offering subsidies based on a microfoundation of trades on the two-sided platform. A key feature is the endogenous network effects that arise from sellers’ and buyers’ entry and trading decisions. The model also captures both horizontal and vertical dimensions of product differentiation, which directly affect these decisions. The results ill...
