Recently, Starns et al. (2008) collected source judgments for old items, which participants had claimed to be new, and found residual source discriminability depending on the old-new response bias. The finding was interpreted as evidence in favor of the multivariate signal-detection model but against the high-threshold model of source memory. According to the latter, “new” responses only follow...

Interactive tools for segmenting D and D images are presented These tools allow a user to quickly revise a segmentation result obtained from an automatic method A thresholding technique is described that nds a unique threshold value for each homogeneous region in an image The threshold value is found such that variance in the region is minimized under change in the threshold value Curve and sur...

Vitreous silica is the material of choice for transmissive and diffractive optics in high-power laser chains. The intensity delivered by high-power lasers for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) is limited by optical breakdown in the silica [1]. Laser-induced damage (LID) in fused silica windows is often observed to initiate at the rear surface. The LID threshold (LIDT) defines the fluence where ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible use of integrated surface electromyography (iEMG) in cardiac transplant patients (CTPs) as a new noninvasive determinant of the metabolic response to exercise by studying the relationship between the iEMG threshold (iEMGT) and other more conventional methods for anaerobic threshold (AT) determination, such as the lactate threshold (LT) a...

identifying the change trends in forms of land surface is one of the main topics in geomorphic system. in this view, we try to assess the stability level of geo systems, boundary changes, instability and prediction of surface forms and processes response. this paper tries to conduct a comparative analysis on the geomorphic equilibrium paradigms, critical thresholds, environmental and natural ha...
