This article proposed a motivational model of driving anger and aggression, derived from self-determination theory, suggesting that trait motivation affects motivation in specific driving situations, which in turn predicts driving anger and subsequent aggression. Individuals higher in controlled orientation were predicted to experience more feelings of pressure and ego-defensiveness while drivi...

Reference Tomm a s Svoboda and Peter Sturm. A badly calibrated camera in ego-motion estimation, propagation of uncertainty. Abstract. This paper deals with the ego-motion estimation (motion of the camera) from two views. To estimate an ego-motion we have to nd correspondences and we need a calibrated camera. In this paper we solve the problem how to propagate known camera calibration errors int...

In this paper, we look at the betweenness centrality of ego in an ego network. We discuss the issue of normalization and develop an efficient and simple algorithm for calculating the betweenness score. We then examine the relationship between the ego betweenness and the betweenness of the actor in the whole network. Whereas, we can show that there is no theoretical link between the two we under...
