Identification and mapping of the significant alterations are the main objectives of the exploration geochemical surveys. The field study is time-consuming and costly to produce the classified maps. Therefore, the processing of remotely sensed data, which provide timely and multi-band (multi-layer) data, can be substituted for the field study. In this study, the ASTER imagery is used for altera...

Presents a training algorithm for probabilistic neural networks (PNN) using the minimum classification error (MCE) criterion. A comparison is made between the MCE training scheme and the widely used maximum likelihood (ML) learning on a cloud classification problem using satellite imagery data.

Mental skills training for sport is reviewed in relation to general cognitive-somatic techniques. These techniques include mental rehearsal, mental imagery and visualization, visuo-motor behavior rehearsal, cognitive-behavior therapy, biofeedback, progressive muscle relaxation and meditation. It is concluded that the initial and continued ability to self-monitor, though enhanced by mental skill...

Before the operation of a motor imagery based brain-computer interface (BCI) adopting machine learning techniques, a cumbersome training procedure is unavoidable. The development of a practical BCI posed the challenge of classifying single-trial EEG with a small training set. In this letter, we addressed this problem by employing a series of signal processing and machine learning approaches to ...

INTRODUCTION The ultimate goal of physiotherapy in stroke rehabilitation is focused towards physical independence and to restore their functional ability during activities of daily living (ADLs). Motor imagery (MI) is an active process during which a specific action is reproduced within working memory without any actual movements. MI training enhances motor learning, neural reorganization and c...

Although motor imagery is widely used for motor learning in rehabilitation and sports training, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly understood. Based on fMRI data sets acquired with very high temporal resolution (300 ms) under motor execution and imagery conditions, we utilized Dynamic Causal Modeling (DCM) to determine effective connectivity measures between supplementary motor area (SM...

When we listen to music, we can mentally control howwe perceive the beat. This ability is thought to be subserved by sensorimotor imagery, having top-down effects on attentional-allocation and perception. Here, we examine whether imagined “up and down” gestures can support an internal generation of metrical accent in rhythmic sequences. We also examine how this type of motor imagery interacts w...
