LaBerge (1997) proposes that underlying attention and self-awareness is a triangular circuit involving interconnected posterior cortical, thalamic and prefrontal neural ensembles. While the target paper makes only passing reference to it, the reticular nucleus of the thalamus is an integral part of the triangular circuit he posits. Indeed, it is essential to a complete understanding of his model.

The present study deals with the functional severity of a coronary artery stenosis assessed by the fractional flow reserve (FFR). The effects of different geometrical shapes of lesion on the diagnostic parameters are unknown. In this study, 3D computational simulation of blood flow in three different geometrical shapes of stenosis (triangular, elliptical, and trapezium) is considered in steady ...

A conjecture is given for the exact location of the multicritical point in the phase diagram of the ±J Ising model on the triangular lattice. The result pc = 0.8358058 agrees well with a recent numerical estimate. From this value, it is possible to derive a comparable conjecture for the exact location of the multicritical point for the hexagonal lattice, pc = 0.9327041, again in excellent agree...

The q-state Potts model on the triangular lattice with nearest-neighbour interactions and three-site interactions in half of the triangular faces is considered. The exact duality relation is re-examined from the point of view of determining its critical point. Using the continuity and uniqueness arguments we determine the exact critical point in the ferromagnetic model. It is argued that a tran...

Triangular norms in the study of probabilistic metric spaces as a special kind of associative functions defined on the unit interval. These functions have found applications in many areas since then. In this study, we present new methods for constructing triangular norms and triangular conorms on an arbitrary bounded lattice under some constraints. Also, we give some illustrative examples for t...

In this paper we develop a novel image processing technique to register two dimensional temporal mammograms for effective diagnosis and therapy. Our registration framework is founded upon triangular B-spline finite element method (TBFEM). In contrast to tensor-product B-splines, which is widely used in medical imaging, triangular B-splines are much more powerful, associated with many desirable ...

Abstract This paper takes the time weight and attribute weight in different periods into consideration to propose a dynamic triangular fuzzy number type multi-attribute decision making method to solve the problem with multi-attribute decision making with triangular fuzzy number as the attribute value. This method utilizes the characteristics of the triangular fuzzy number in order to establish ...

This article introduces the algorithm for simplification of 2D and 3D triangular meshes. The algorithm evaluates and removes vertices. A hash table is used to speed up the process of selecting the appropriate vertex for its removal. Therefore, this part of the algorithm is executed in constant time O(1). In spite of simplification, triangular mesh models still keep majority of their own essenti...

danehkhoshk anticline is a typical growing anticline in kermanshah province which is located in folded zagros belt. the purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect of tectonic on the triangular facet characteristics, the drainage density and on the drainage pattern formed on anticline. dimensions of triangular facets were determined by means of quickbird satellite images and field works....
