Late in 1995 we organized a hyperspectral data acquisition using the Naval Research Laboratory’s Hyperspectral Digital Imagery Collection Experiment sensor system over Fort Hood, Texas. This acquisition resulted in hyperspectral data with a nominal 2 meter ground sample distance collected with 210 spectral samples per pixel. This paper describes current quantitative classification results for m...

Divergence paralysis is characterized by acquired horizontal homonymous diplopia when viewing distant objects but without limitation of ocular movements (Bielschowsky, I935). Although raised intracranial pressure is a significant aetiological factor in the production of divergence paralysis (Bender and Savitsky, I940; Chamlin and Davidoff, I950, 1951), there has been much diversity of opinion a...

Undergraduate students learn about mammalian cell culture applications in introductory biology courses. However, laboratory modules are rarely designed to provide hands-on experience with mammalian cells or teach cell culture techniques, such as trypsinization and cell counting. Students are more likely to learn about cell culture using bacteria or yeast, as they are typically easier to grow, c...

Sensitive molecular methods, such as the PCR, can detect low-level contamination, and careful technique is required to reduce the impact of contaminants. Yet, some assays that are designed to detect high copy-number target sequences appear to be impossible to perform without contamination, and frequently, personnel or laboratory environment are held responsible as the source. This complicates d...

We consider open addressing hashing and implement it by using the Robin Hood strategy; that is, in case of collision, the element that has traveled the farthest can stay in the slot. We hash ∼ αn elements into a table of size n where each probe is independent and uniformly distributed over the table, and α < 1 is a constant. Let Mn be the maximum search time for any of the elements in the table...

We present a qualitative model for reasoning about perceptions, sensors, and belief, and a logic to reason about this model. Basic to our model is a distinction between precision and accuracy, for both of which we provide qualitative deenitions. In our logic this distinction gives rise to two modal operators|P for actual perception, and C p for perceptual capability , which is captured as a set...
