The pedestal or dipper effect is the large improvement in the detectability of a sinusoidal grating observed when it is added to a masking or pedestal grating of the same spatial frequency, orientation, and phase. We measured the pedestal effect in both broadband and notched noise-noise from which a 1.5-octave band centered on the signal frequency had been removed. Although the pedestal effect ...

Abstract For so many years, road accidents have been a huge problem for automobile industries since they must continuously upgrade their vehicles to withstand any type of damages. In this regard, technologies are invented reduce the figure that happen. One great reasons accident is due bright headlight vehicle coming in opposite direction. High beam from causes dangerous situation night driving...

Is this issue of the journal, Kim et al. 1) aimed to explain the association between epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and neutro-phil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as systemic inflammatory markers in hypertensive patients according to diurnal variation of blood pressure (BP). They concluded that EFT and NLR are independently associated with impaired diurnal variation of BP in hypertensive patients. R...

Context. Dippers are typically low-mass, pre-main-sequence stars that display dips in their light curves. These have been attributed to dusty warps form the inner part of disk. Aims. Our goal is derive characteristics dipper Taurus assess physical mechanisms induce Methods. We used curves fourth and thirteenth campaigns K2 select a sample among 179 members possible star-forming region based on ...

Hypertension is a major independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Management of hypertension is generally based on office blood pressure since it is easy to determine. Since casual blood pressure readings in the office are influenced by various factors, they do not represent basal blood pressure. Dipping of the blood pressure in the night is a normal physiological change that can be ...
