Semantic-based image retrieval is the desired target of Content-based image retrieval (CBIR). In this paper, we proposed a new method to extract semantic information for CBIR using the relevance feedback results. Firstly it is assumed that positive and negative examples in relevant feedback are containing semantic content added by users. Then image internal semantic model (IISM) is proposed to ...

the purpose of present study was to determine the effect of different levels of balance task difficulty and visual feedback on balance in elderly women. fourteen healthy elderly women (mean age 57/65 yr) were selected voluntarily. participants were asked to stand still on a stability platform under each of two conditions (with visual feedback and without visual feedback) in three levels of diff...

results providing and receiving peer feedback was easy to do, without interruption in daily workflow. the system can be used among the three hospital locations of the healthcare group. it was easy to retrieve and demonstrate cases for group discussion and analysis. a side effect was that the feedback project helped to demonstrate to external stakeholder that the radiologists are eager to work o...

As the surface drag is increased in a comprehensive general circulation model (GCM), the upper-level zonal winds decrease and eddy momentum flux convergence into the jet core increases. Globally averaged eddy kinetic energy decreases, a response that is inconsistent with the conventional barotropic governor mechanism whereby decreased barotropic shears encourage baroclinic wave growth. As the c...

linear state bisection is introduced as a new method to find time-invariant state feedback control laws for a special form of underactuated nonlinear systems. the specialty of the systems considered is that every unactuated state should be coupled with at least two directly actuated states. the basic idea is based on bisecting actuated states and using linear combinations with adjustable parame...

With the accumulation of data on complex molecular machineries coordinating cell-cycle dynamics, coupled with its central function in disease patho-physiologies, it is becoming increasingly important to collate the disparate knowledge sources into a comprehensive molecular network amenable to systems-level analyses. In this work, we present a comprehensive map of the budding yeast cell-cycle, c...

Current views recognize the brain as playing a pivotal role in the arising and maintenance of pain experience. Real-time fMRI (rtfMRI) feedback is a potential tool for pain modulation that directly targets the brain with the goal of restoring regulatory function. Though still relatively new, rtfMRI is a rapidly developing technology that has evolved in the last 15 years from simple proof of con...

Background. Several researchers have studied the effects of type of feedback on learning motor skills, but there are few studies on the interaction between personality traits and the type of feedback. Objectives. This study aimed at investigating the effect of type of feedback on intrinsic motivation and learning volleyball jump serve in students with neuroticism. Methods. A total of 59 femal...

The study presented here is concerned with the pedagogical and technical issues around provision of feedback. More specifically, it looks at how feedback received interpreted by students can become integrated in a comprehensive plan for supporting philosophy helping them develop critical analytical writing skills. It especially relevant post-Covid-19 educational settings, where face-to-face con...

The goal of multimodal user interfaces is to assist users in completing tasks quicker or with fewer errors, by reducing their cognitive workload. Visual, auditory and tactile feedback modalities are commonly used as a means to provide users with information through different sensory channels. Understanding how visual, auditory and tactile feedback modalities complement each other is still an op...
