Abstract The paper focuses on two problems with Alexander Wendt's unification of physical and social ontology the basis quantum theory. Firstly, by endowing phenomena an ontological foundation in reality defined terms Wendt risks reducing a plurality worlds as ‘fields sense’, ordered their immanent rules, to world laws Secondly, defining his science excluding from consideration all that which v...

In this paper, a novel technique for the design of two-channel Quadrature Mirror Filter (QMF) banks with linear phase in frequency domain is presented. To satisfy the exact reconstruction condition of the filter bank, low-pass prototype filter response in pass-band, transition band and stop band is optimized using unconstrained indirect update optimization method. The objective function is form...

We investigated how the common measures of timing performance behaved in the course of training on the peak procedure in C3H mice. Following fixed interval (FI) pre-training, mice received 16 days of training in the peak procedure. The peak time and spread were derived from the average response rates while the start and stop times and their relative variability were derived from a single-trial ...

Paratransit in Malang has its own irregular characteristics, same as other cities the world. It is tough to recognize exact operational time, availability, and estimated travel time when using paratransit. The information about paratransit can be only obtained by making predictions due characteristics. This research examined importance of a system that collect data basis for predictions. Theref...

The X-Stop device is designed to distract the posterior elements of the stenotic segment and place it in flexion to treat neurogenic claudication. Previous biomechanical studies on X Stop have been done in vitro on cadavers looking at disc pressures and segmental range of movements. The objective of this study is to understand the sagittal kinematics in vivo of the lumbar spine at the instrumen...

Inhibitory motor control is a core function of cognitive control. Evidence from diverse experimental approaches has linked this function to a mostly right-lateralized network of cortical and subcortical areas, wherein a signal from the frontal cortex to the basal ganglia is believed to trigger motor-response cancellation. Recently, however, it has been recognized that in the context of typical ...
