Iran’s Revolution has been to date analyzed with a variety of theories, but the gap in the presentation of a native theory for its analysis has been always felt. Given the significance of this subject, the present paper attempts to shed some light on the capacities and position of transcendent philosophy in the analysis of the Islamic Revolution of Iran. In doing so, an attempt was made to theo...

one of the prominent figures in epistemology from a moral-educative perspective is mulla sadra. this essay tries to analyze his ideas in a library-based method in order to find his educative methods. the key question is what educative methods are explicitly or implicitly mentioned in his epistemological ideas. he based his educative ideas upon his philosophical foundations specially the substan...

Visual motion processing is compromised in a substantial proportion of schizophrenic patients, but precise neural mechanisms underlying the motion-processing deficit have not yet been elaborated. The visual motion pathway includes a local and a global processing stage, each of which has distinct neural substrates. Here, we attempt to identify the stage(s) that are implicated in impaired motion ...

Motion estimation is a core part of most video compression systems since it directly affects the output video quality and the encoding time. The full search (FS) technique gives the highest visual quality but has the problem of a significant computational load. To solve this problem, we present in this paper a modified median (MMED) operation and advanced search strategies for fast motion estim...

BACKGROUND Measurement of cervical motion (CM) is probably the most commonly applied functional outcome measure in assessing the status of patients with cervical pathology. In general terms, CM refers to motion of the head relative to the trunk as well as conjunct motions within the cervical spine. SPECIAL FEATURES Multiple techniques and instruments have been used for assessing CM. These wer...

Motion estimation constitutes a critical part in video coding since it is computationally expensive and has a substantial impact on the resulting image quality. A very efficient method to estimate motion is through adding a rate constraint for coding of the motion vectors into the estimation process. In this paper we analyze the performance of this approach in the emerging MPEG-4 standard, cons...

The study of glass formation is largely framed by semiempirical models that emphasize the importance of progressively growing cooperative motion accompanying the drop in fluid configurational entropy, emergent elasticity, or the vanishing of accessible free volume available for molecular motion in cooled liquids. We investigate the extent to which these descriptions are related through computat...

Optical motion capturing systems are expensive and require substantial dedicated space to be set up. On the other hand, they provide unsurpassed accuracy and reliability. In many situations however flexibility is required and the motion capturing system can only temporarily be placed. The Microsoft Kinect v2 sensor is comparatively cheap and with respect to gait analysis promising results have ...

Manipulation problems involving many objects present substantial challenges for motion planning algorithms due to the high-dimensionality and multi-modality of the search space. Symbolic task planners, on the other hand, can efficiently construct plans involving many entities but cannot incorporate the constraints from geometry and kinematics. In recent years, there have been a number of approa...

The behavioral role of the middle temporal (MT/V5) area and its satellites in motion processing is still unclear, particularly the degree to which MT/V5 proper is critical for different types of motion processing. Therefore, effects of small and large lesions in the caudal part of the superior temporal sulcus of macaque monkeys were compared for two tasks requiring different types of motion pro...
