Navigation in autonomous vehicles involves integrating measurements from on–board inertial sensors and external data collected by various sensors. In this paper, the computer–frame velocity error model is augmented with a random constant model of accelerometer bias and rategyro drift for use in a Kalman filter–based fusion of a lowcost rotating inertial navigation system (INS) with external pos...

This study identifies and explores the core challenge faced when integrating security requirements into the mobile application software development life cycle. Studies on key issues in Information Systems (IS) have been on-going in the past decades, with security moving up the ranks of top issues in IS. Security requirements can be added into mobile application development processes by practisi...

In peer production communities, individual community members typically decide for themselves where to make contributions, often driven by factors such as “fun” or a belief that “information should be free”. However, the extent to which this bottom-up, interest-driven content production paradigm meets the needs of consumers of this content is unclear. In this paper, we introduce an analytical fr...

When two six degrees of freedom (6DOF) datasets are registered, a transformation is sought that minimizes the misalignment between the two datasets. Commonly, the measure of misalignment is the sum of the positional and rotational components. This measure has a dimensional mismatch between the positional component (unbounded and having length units) and the rotational component (bounded and dim...

A 4D registration method for the spatio-temporal alignment of cardiac MR image sequences has been developed. The registration algorithm has the ability not only to correct any spatial misalignment between the image sequences but also any temporal misalignment which maybe the result of differences in the cardiac cycle between subjects and differences in the temporal acquisition parameters. The a...

Gaze-contingent display paradigms play an important role in vision research. The time delay due to data transmission from eye tracker to monitor may lead to a misalignment between the gaze direction and image manipulation during eye movements, and therefore compromise the contingency. We present a method to reduce this misalignment by using a compressed exponential function to model the traject...

The determination of the exterior orientation by a combination of an inertial measurement system (IMU) with relative kinematic GPS-positioning – the direct georeferencing has a growing number of applications for standard photogrammetric projects. One mayor problem is the determination of the relation between the camera and the IMU the boresight misalignment. The rigorous mathematical model requ...

UNLABELLED Circadian misalignment affects total sleep time, but it may also affect sleep architecture. The objectives of this study were to examine intra-individual effects of circadian misalignment on sleep architecture and inter-individual relationships between sleep stages, cortisol levels and insulin sensitivity. Thirteen subjects (7 men, 6 women, age: 24.3±2.5 y; BMI: 23.6±1.7 kg/m²) staye...

PURPOSE To investigate immediate and long-term changes in static ocular alignment with acute acquired superior oblique palsy (SOP) in monkeys. METHODS The trochlear nerve was severed intracranially in two rhesus monkeys. After the surgery, the paretic eye was patched for 6 to 9 days, and then binocular viewing was allowed. Three-axis eye movements (horizontal, vertical, and torsional) were me...
