In a context of document co-clustering, we define a new similarity measure which iteratively computes similarity while combining fuzzy sets in a three-partite graph. The fuzzy triadic similarity (FT-Sim) model can deal with uncertainty offers by the fuzzy sets. Moreover, with the development of the Web and the high availability of storage spaces, more and more documents become accessible. Docum...

In a series of four experiments we assessed whether functional properties of the human face, such as signaling an object through eye gaze, influence face processing in 3- and 4-month-old infants. Infants viewed canonical and scrambled faces. We found that 4- but not 3-month-old infants' ERP showed an enhanced face-sensitive N170 component for the scrambled stimulus. Furthermore, when canonical ...

In [BH5] it is shown how the Relative Hurewicz Theorem follows from a Generalised Van Kampen Theorem (GVKT) for the fundamental crossed complex of a filtered space, and in [BL3] it is shown how a new multirelative Hurewicz Theorem follows from a GVKT for the fundamental cat-group of an n-cube of spaces. The purpose of this paper is to advertise and explain some implications and special cases of...

A feature-based representation of auditory stimuli is proposed and tested experimentally. Within a measurement-theoretical framework, it is possible to decide whether a representation of subjective judgments with a set of auditory features is possible and how unique such a representation is. Furthermore, the method avoids confounding listeners' perceptual and verbal abilities, in that it strict...

The appositional region between the intermediate element and adjacent cisternae in the triads of the sarcoplasmic reticulum of striated muscle from humans, copepods, ostracods, and barnacles shows a five-layered construction similar to that of a tight junction. Known functions of tight junctions and cisternal elements suggest that a membrane depolarization, conducted by the intermediate element...

BACKGROUND AND METHOD The aim of this study was to examine whether a mother's sensitivity towards her one-year-old infant is related to the infant's propensity to engage in 'triadic' relations--that is, to orientate to an adult's engagement with objects and events in the world, for example in sharing experiences with an adult. In order to determine that any effects were specific to infants' beh...

In Study 1, 6-week- and 3-month-old infants gazed more to an adult when she alternated attention between an object and the infant versus when attention was directed only to the object. In Study 2, 6-week-olds did not discriminate between triadic situations with face-to-face interaction controlled.
