Neurologic examination, including hearing, was normal with no objective bruit. A minimally elevated alkaline phosphatase (282 U/L) was the only blood abnormality. Imaging (figure) revealed osteoporosis ...

Market’s demands of digital cameras for higher sensitivity capability under low-light conditions are remarkably increasing nowadays. The digital camera market is now a tough race for providing higher ISO capability. In this paper, we explore an approach for increasing maximum ISO capability of digital cameras without changing any structure of an image sensor or CFA. Our method is directly appli...

Based on a cognitive notion of neo-additive capacities reflecting likelihood insensitivity with respect to survival chances, we construct a Choquet Bayesian learning model over the life-cycle that generates a motivational notion of neoadditive survival beliefs expressing ambiguity attitudes. We embed these neoadditive survival beliefs as decision weights in a Choquet expected utility life-cycle...
