Simulating space-time random fields with nonseparable Gneiting-type covariance functions
(Springer, 2020)
Two algorithms are proposed to simulate space-time Gaussian random fields with a covariance function belonging to an extended Gneiting class, the definition of which depends on a completely monotone function associated ...
Malleostapedotomy prosthesis size and shape: Key measurements from a temporal bone study
(2012)
HYPOTHESIS: By determining the dimensions of middle ear anatomic relationships pertinent to malleostapedotomy (MS), a simplified, yet optimized scheme for sizing, shaping, and placing a prosthesis can be generated. METHODS: ...
Specific Impairment of “What-Where-When” Episodic-Like Memory in Experimental Models of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
(2013)
Episodic memory deficit is a common cognitive disorder in human temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). However, no animal model of TLE has
been shown to specifically replicate this cognitive dysfunction, which has limited its ...
Temporal and spatial changes in primary biomass as a diagnosis and prognosis in environmental impact (Rapel Reservoir, Central Chile)
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1994)
Extensive mortality of silversides (Atherinidae), Odontesthes bonariensis, was recorded during July 1989 in the Rapel Reservoir. Temporal and spatial changes observed in biomass concentration (chlorophyll-a) through both ...
A finer grained approach to psychological capital and work performance
(Springer, 2018-08)
Psychological capital is a set of personal resources comprised by hope, efficacy, optimism, and resilience, which previous research has supported as being valuable for general work performance. However, in today's ...
RF-MEP: A novel random forest method for merging gridded precipitation products and ground-based measurements
(Elsevier, 2020)
The accurate representation of spatio-temporal patterns of precipitation is an essential input for numerous environmental applications. However, the estimation of precipitation patterns derived solely from rain gauges is ...
Sleep benefits in parallel implicit and explicit measures of episodic memory
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2014)
Research in rats using preferences during exploration as a measure of memory has indicated that sleep is important for the
consolidation of episodic-like memory, i.e., memory for an event bound into specific spatio-temporal ...
Geographic variation in the repeatability of a personality trait
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2010-08-06)
Animal personalities are interindividual behavioral differences that are consistent across time or contexts. Increasing research is
revealing the adaptive significance of personalities, although the mechanisms driving ...
Spatio-Temporal Variation of the Urban Heat Island in Santiago, Chile during Summers 2005-2017
(MDPI, 2020)
Urban heat islands (UHIs) can present significant risks to human health. Santiago, Chile has around 7 million residents, concentrated in an average density of 480 people/km(2). During the last few summer seasons, the highest ...
Using dispersion measures for determining block-size in motion estimation
(Universidad Nacional de Colombia Sede Medellín, 2012)
Video compression techniques remove temporal redundancy among frames and enable high compression efficiency in coding systems. Reduction of temporal redundancy is achieved by motion compensation. In turn, motion compensation ...
