In a previous paper, we reported that repetitive red 1ashes enhanced the red response of retinal luminosity-type horizontal cell (LHC) and depressed the cell’s green response; repetitive green 1ashes suppressed the cell’s red response, but caused trivial changes in its green response. Based on the idea that the spectral plasticity of the horizontal cell may re1ect some changes in synaptic e6cac...

We define and discuss a set of (4N-4) parameters that can be used to analyse events in which N jets have been produced in high energy hadron-hadron collisions. These multijet variables are the multijet mass and (4N-5) independent dimensionless parameters. To illustrate the use of the variables QCD predictions are presented for events with up to five jets produced at the Fermilab Tevatron Proton...

Canadian studies examining suicide among rural and farm populations remain scarce. To better understand this phenomenon, a qualitative research paradigm was used to analyze encounter forms of 29 individuals (24 men, 5 women) who called the Manitoban Farm and Rural Stress Line. Content analysis revealed 7 major themes: (a) coping mechanisms, (b) financial concerns, (c) health issues, (d) family ...

We consider the problem of representing collective behavior of large populations and predicting the evolution of a population distribution over a discrete state space. A discrete time mean field game (MFG) is motivated as an interpretable model founded on game theory for understanding the aggregate effect of individual actions and predicting the temporal evolution of population distributions. W...

We offer a parsimonious definition of large population potential games, provide some alternate characterizations, and demonstrate the advantages of the new definition over the existing definition, but also show the equivalence of the two definitions.
