Denna text diskuterar Elvis Presley i relation till begreppen coolness och maskulinitet femtiotalets USA. En utgångspunkt är då att ord kan användas på en rad olika sätt, exempel så de utrustade med mer bokstavliga eller metaforiska överförda betydelser. Som ett hur ord, utan vi ens närmare reflekterar över det, ges överförd metaforisk betydelse, man nämna låt av den amerikanske countrysångaren...

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) usage across the globe is increasing by day. Evaluating a node’s trust value has significant advantages since such network applications only run efficiently involving trustable nodes. The values are estimated based on reputation of each node in using different mechanisms. However, these mechanisms have various challenging issues which degrade performance. Hence, n...

This paper challenges the problem of estimating the original red–green–blue (RGB) image from a black-and-white (B&W) halftone image with homogeneously distributed dot patterns. To achieve this goal, training RGB images are converted into color-embedded gray images using the conventional reversible color to gray conversion method, and then converted into halftone images using error diffusion in ...

Abstract In study are presented data of the insectivores (Eulipotyphla from three families, i.e., Erinaceidae, Soricidae and Talpidae) specimens deposited in collection Šariš Museum Bardejov (SMB), Slovakia. total, 469 individuals twenty-eight sites eastern Slovakia were evaluated. This includes collected various places times mainly northeastern Individuals acquired 1956–1982, but 1956 (n = 150...

Certain graph theoretic properties and alternative de nitions of the Gray graph the smallest known cubic edge but not vertex transitive graph are discussed in detail Introduction history The smallest known cubic edge but not vertex transitive graph has vertices and is known as the Gray graph denoted hereafter by G The rst published account on the Gray graph is due to Bouwer who mentioned that t...

Introduction: Voxel based morphometry is a type of statistical parametric mapping that can be used to investigate the effect of diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease or other agent such as skills on brain structure (white matter, gray matter and cerebrospinal fluid). The aim of this study is evaluate the effectiveness of this method in detection of differen...

This experiment reexamined displacement as originally formulated by Murray and Berkun. Similarity to the goal and spatial placement of the alleys were manipulated with an additional variable of brightness (black) and texture (hardware cloth floor) preference in rats. It was found that 5s traveled least down the white smooth-floor alleys, midway down the gray screen-floor alleys, and farthest do...

The visual system's computation of lightness (perceived reflectance) leads to contrast effects in which a gray target region appears lighter on a black background than on a white one. Here we show a paradoxical contrast effect in which targets look lighter after adding regions that increase the scene's average luminance, and darker after adding regions that decrease this luminance. The paradoxi...
