Society needs to find an informed consent on the threshold … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Correlations for Multiple Time Series and Gaussian Random Fields and Measures of Their Linear DeterminismR.J. Bhansali, L. IppolitiFor a discrete-time vector linear stationary process, {X(t)}, admitting forward and backward autoregressive representations, the variance matrix of an optimal linear interpolator of X(t), based on a knowledge of {X(t-j), j≠0}, is known to be given by Ri(0)-1 where Ri(0) denotes the inverse variance of the process. Let A=Is-1Ri(0)ˉ1R(0)ˉ1, where R(0) denotes the variance matrix of {X(t)} and Is an … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,428 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Eye Tracking in Assessing Visual AttentionAyiei AyieiIn aviation, procedural errors persist despite pilots having the correct knowledge and ability to perform particular flight tasks. These errors can be attributed to diagnostic errors, inaccurate situational assessment and poor hazard awareness. Eye tracking has emerged as a technology that can be used to monitor pilot performance and provide insights into attentional distribution and the underlying decisional processes. The … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2020 · 7,429 accessesView PDFCite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractChasing the Fat Demon: Fat Chance, Buddy?David L. Katz, Joachim Storsberg, Christian SchmidtScience is an interesting profession. At times, one could get caught up in his or her own world of thoughts, perception, far away from reality, sometimes referred to as the proverbial ivory tower (Lederberg, 1972). Science for the sake of science is, per se, not without merit, with our fragmented understanding of a given issue providing ample justification for experimentation … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 May 2017 · 8,137 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
