Mixed effect models in distance sampling [PDF]

, 2013
Recently, much effort has been expended for improving conventional distance sampling methods, e.g. by replacing the design-based approach with a model-based approach where observed counts are related to environmental covariates (Hedley and Buckland, 2004)

Beyond natural numbers: Representation of negative numbers in the parietal cortex

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
Unlike natural numbers, negative numbers do not have natural physical referents. How does the brain represent such abstract mathematical concepts? Two competing hypotheses regarding representational systems for negative numbers are a rule-based model, in
