As raw sensory data are partial, our visual system extensively fills in missing details, creating enriched percepts based on incomplete bottom-up information. Despite evidence for internally generated representations at early stages of cortical processing, it is not known whether these representations include missing information of dynamically transforming objects. Long-range apparent motion (A...

Volume transformations of medical images play an important role for many applications such as registration of diierent modalities, mapping atlases onto clinical data, or simulation of surgical procedures. While registration and atlas mapping can for the major number of applications be performed without tight time constraints, it is essential for simulation systems that they allow real-time inte...

Double-loop networks have been widely studied as architecture for local area networks. The L-shape is an important tool for studying the distance properties of double-loop networks. Two L-shapes are equivalent if the numbers of nodes k steps away from the origin are the same for every k. Hwang and Xu first studied equivalent L-shapes through a geometric operation called 3-rectangle transformati...

The 1999 Chichi earthquake and Typhoon Morakot in 2009 caused two serious landslide events the Chishan river watershed southern Taiwan. In this study, certainty factor analysis was used to evaluate effectiveness of occurrence, spatiotemporal hotspot explain pattern distribution hotspots. Z-values from Getis–Ord formula were assess clustering strength evolution on different scales with sizes tim...

Mangroves are recognised for their diverse set of ecosystem services, including protection from tropical cyclones and tidal surges. also adapted to withstand disturbances across a range climatic conditions, the frequency severity projected increase in coming years due climate change sea-level rise. The Sundarbans Bangladesh India is one most frequently affected mangrove forests South Asia. We i...
