Collerton et al.’s Perception and Attention Deficit (PAD) model argues that all recurrent complex visual hallucinations (RCVH) result from maladaptive, deficient sensory and attentional processing. We outline a constructivist-based representation of perception using signal detection theory, in which hallucinations are modeled as false alarms when confirmational perceptual information is lacking...

Bi r th weight is in large extent influenced by gestational age. In addi tion genetic and envi ronmental factors determine intrauter ine growth and bi r th weight. The contr ibutions of these factors may be influenced by maternal smoking dur ing pregnancy. We examined bi r th weight and maternal smoking in a sample of 2930 twin pai rs from the Nether lands Twin Register using structural equatio...

In the paper we provide an overview of a technique for getting repeat pass interferometric surveys by exploiting the very different ASAR modes: Image Mode, Alternating Polarization and Wide-Swath Mode. We briefly discuss the architecture of the modular processor, able to accept any of the cited modes, together with a DEM (if available, if not a global one like GTOPO30 or ENVI is assumed by defa...

The goal of this study was to map and quantify the number of newly constructed buildings in Accra, Ghana between 2002 and 2010 based on high spatial resolution satellite image data. Two semi-automated feature detection approaches for detecting and mapping newly constructed buildings based on QuickBird very high spatial resolution satellite imagery were analyzed: (1) post-classification comparis...

In the process of high resolution images orthorectification, an uneven distribution of ground control points in mountainous area results in the phenomenon of ground objects dislocation between orthophotos edges in the overlap area. Followed image mosaic, fusion and interpretation are seriously affected. High-resolution (2.5 m) panchromatic images with a 30% forward overlap of ALOS satellite wer...

In the contemporary urban planning, outdoor comfort is more and relevant. As a matter of fact, in some Nations microclimate design, so, among others, quantification already compulsory, while many others it recommended. Various methods to quantify can be adopted (e.g., PMV-Predicted Mean Vote, or PET-Physiological Equivalent Temperature), but every formulation wind velocity, otherwise referred a...

Individual tree mapping in the forest is usually done by several techniques such as the sequential target and point origin mapping. Generally, the estimation of standing timber volume operation is considered a difficult task as ground survey is expensive. Most of this task is being done on the ground and takes a lot of time to be accomplished. However, the use of airborne remote sensing such as...
