in the civil procedure act, local inquiry is explained in a chapter separate from testimony, but for similarity of these two proofs, connection of them and criterion of separating them is disputable. in this article, we will study in one portion the role of witness and testimony conditions and in other portion, the role of number, sexuality, locality and ceremonies in separating of these proofs...

The effects of combining search and modelling techniques can be complex and unpredictable, so guidelines are very important for the design and development of effective and robust solvers and models. A recently observed phenomenon is the negative effect of symmetry breaking constraints on local search performance. The reasons for this are poorly understood, and we attempt to shed light on the ph...

Replacing the local dots of point-light walkers with complex images leads to significant detriments to performance in biological motion detection and discrimination tasks. This detriment has previously been shown to be larger when the local elements match the global shape in object category and facing direction. In contrast, studies using Navon stimuli have demonstrated that local interference ...

The authors present a series of 4 experiments designed to test the ability to perceive local shape information. Observers were presented with various smoothly varying 3-dimensional surfaces where they reported shape index and sign of Gaussian curvature at several probe locations. Results show that observers are poor at making judgments based on these local measures, especially when the region s...
