Visual working memory contains a representation of certain image statistics (Victor & Conte, 2004), in addition to a pixel-by-pixel representation. Here, we show that the representation of statistics is more stable in time (up to 3000 ms) than the pixel-by-pixel representation, especially for changes in luminance and local high-order statistics, and is not affected by visual masking. Bilaterall...

Abstract Rainfall infiltration in unsaturated soil slopes is a classic issue geotechnical engineering (Conte and Troncone Géotechnique 62:87–91, 2012; Morbidelli et al. J Hydrol 557:878–886, 2018). Factors influencing the slope stability due to rainwater comprise rainfall characteristics, saturated permeability coefficient, geometry of slope, boundary initial moisture conditions (Ali Comput Geo...

As discussed in previous papers, belie] conte.~a are a powerful ud appropriate formalism for the representation and implementation of propositional attitudes in a multiagent environment, In this paper we show that a formalization using belief contexts is also elaboration tolerant. That is, it is able to cope with minor changes to input problems without major revisions. Elaboration tolerance is ...

This paper uses some well known theorems of algebraic geometry to characterize polynomial Hermite interpolation in any dimension. Efficient numerical algorithms are presented for interpolatory curve fits through points in the plane, surface fits through points and curves in space, and in general, hypersuface fits through. points, curves, surfaces, and sub-varieties in n dimensional space. These...

Processes undergoing quantum mechanics exhibit quantum interference effects. In this case, quantum probabilities result to be different from classical ones because they contain an additional so called quantum interference term. We use ambiguous figures to analyse if during perception-cognition by human subjects we can observe violation of the classical probability field and the presence of quan...
