The release of nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) to the subsurface environment can create long-term sources of ground water contamination as the NAPL slowly dissolves into ground water (Mercer and Cohen 1990; Cohen and Mercer 1993). Effective remediation of subsurface NAPL contamination requires that NAPL be accurately located and saturations quantified. This is particularly important for dense ...

Much knowledge of sensory cortical plasticity is gleaned from perceptual learning studies that improve visual performance [1-7]. Although the improvements are likely caused by modifications of excitatory and inhibitory neural networks, most studies were not primarily designed to differentiate their relative contributions. Here we designed a novel push-pull training protocol to reduce sensory ey...

We propose a computational model of a simple cell with push-pull inhibition, a property that is observed in many real simple cells. It is based on an existing model called Combination of Receptive Fields or CORF for brevity. A CORF model uses as afferent inputs the responses of model LGN cells with appropriately aligned center-surround receptive fields, and combines their output with a weighted...

We characterise the probability distributions of various categories gross capital flows conditional on information contained in financial asset prices a panel emerging market economies, with focus ‘tail’ events. Our framework, based quantile regression methodology, allows for separate role push- and pull-type factors, because it is high-frequency data, can quantify likelihood different outturns...

The Push, the Pull and the Push&Pull algorithms are well-known rumor spreading protocols. In all three, in the beginning one node of a graph is informed. In the Push setting, every round every informed node chooses a neighbor uniformly at random and, if it is not already informed anyway, informs it. In the Pull setting, each round each uninformed node chooses a neighbor uniformly at random and ...
