the covert and clear rivalry of russia and us after the cold war era has continued by now. the countries that have independent forms of russia were one of the basic centers of rivalry between the two states. for us influence in the countries is in its great and long strategic interest that has tried to influence the nato. but at the other hand, the manner of us is known as a threat for russia a...

The analysis of evoked potentials of sensorimotor cortex in response to electrical stimulation of n. ischiadicus shows that the extremal factor hypokinesia has a negative impact on the dynamics of formation of amplitudal and temporal characteristics since eyes openning in 2-weeks old rats. The most vulnerable process to the impact of hypokinesia is the first-positive phase, which disappears in ...

The first example for an endohedral transition-metal atom (Ru) sequestered in a seven-coordinate surrounding of rare-earth metal atoms (Pr) has been found for {RuPr3}Cl3. The monocapped trigonal prisms of Pr atoms share two rectangular faces, forming a zigzag chain with Ru-Ru distances of 308 pm. Intracluster bonding is dominated by Ru-Pr bonding with very little Ru-Ru bonding.

Humans are better at recognizing human faces than faces of other species. However, it is unclear whether this species sensitivity can be seen at early perceptual stages of face processing and whether it involves species sensitivity for important facial features like the eyes. These questions were addressed by comparing the modulations of the N170 ERP component to faces, eyes and eyeless faces o...

Laboratory research shows that eye-closure during memory retrieval improves both the amount and the factual accuracy of memory reports about witnessed events. Based on these findings, we developed the Eye-Closure Interview, and examined its feasibility (in terms of compliance with the instructions) and effectiveness (in terms of the quantity and quality of reported information) in eyewitness in...

Previous research suggests that closing one's eyes or averting one's gaze from another person can benefit visual-spatial imagination by interrupting cognitive demands associated with face-to-face interaction (Markson and Paterson, 2009). The present study further investigated this influence of social gaze on adults' visual-spatial imagination, using the matrix task (Kerr, 1987, 1993). Participa...

This paper presents a simple and fast technique for geometrical feature detection of several human face organs such as eyes and mouth. Human face gravity-center template is firstly used for face location, from which position information of face organs such as eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth are obtained. Then the original image is processed by extracting edges and the regions around the organs a...
