Dopamine inactivation efficacy related to functional DAT1 and COMT variants influences motor response evaluation [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: Dopamine plays an important role in orienting, response anticipation and movement evaluation. Thus, we examined the influence of functional variants related to dopamine inactivation in the dopamine transporter (DAT1) and catechol-O ...

The foraging behaviour of granivorous birds: a mechanistic perspective. [PDF]
1. The functional response, i.e. the feeding rate as a function of prey density, links resource availability to population level demographic rates. The functional response is often central to behavioural-based population models that predict the effect ...

Clustering dichotomously scored items through functional k-means algorithm
, 2016 In the educational field, it is common to analyze the probability of a correct response to a test item as a continuous function of the item parameters and the subject ability. This relation is given by the item response function.

Local linear regression for functional predictor and scalar response [PDF]
, 2007 The aim of this work is to introduce a new nonparametric regression technique in the context of functional covariate and scalar response. We propose a local linear regression estimator and study its asymptotic behaviour.
