Differences in auditory and physiological properties of HVc neurons between reproductively active male and female canaries (Serinus canaria)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, 2001
International audienceBased on neuronal recordings in the HVc, this study investigated differences between reproductively active male and sexually receptive female canaries. It is the first study to describe auditory responses and cell characteristics of

The levis HVC

Proceedings of the 29th International Conference on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques. Electronic Art and Animation Catalog., 2002
A commercial for a new hover car that just doesn't work. The voice-over tries to sell the car, but everything goes wrong. In the end, it's a commercial for public transit trying to combat a new technology.

History of HVC research — an Overview

2004
The discovery of gas clouds at high velocity outside the disk of the Milky Way dates from the middle of the 20th century. Since their discovery, numerous new techniques and new instruments have allowed great strides in the understanding of the high-velocity cloud phenomenon.

Repertoire sharing and auditory responses in the HVC of the canary

NeuroReport, 2009
In songbirds, auditory neurons of the nucleus HVC respond selectively to a particular complex sound, the bird's own song (BOS). In the canary, this song selectivity did not exclude responses to conspecific songs. Here, we recorded single units in nucleus HVC of adult canaries to assess to what extent repertoire sharing among birds contributed to ...

Distances and Metallicities of HVCS

2004
We review the methods for determining the distances and metallicities of high-velocity clouds. A short summary is given of several indirect methods, but we concentrate on the absorption-line method, which is based on the detection and non-detection of interstellar absorption lines in the spectra of background and foreground stars, as well as of ...

HVCS Interacting With Their Environment

2004
We present observational evidence and review theoretical considerations for an interaction of high-velocity clouds (HVCs) with their ambient medium. HVCs showing either a head-tail structure or a horseshoe shape are likely to be interacting. Such HVCs are observed in complexes in the gaseous Galactic Halo (e.g. complex A), in HVC complexes in the outer

Medical Image Enhancement Based on HVC

2007 1st International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedical Engineering, 2007
Medical image enhancement is to process the image so that the result is more suitable than the original image for analysis and diagnosis. The information of image is acquired by the observer's eyes, so in the image processing, the human visual characteristics (HVC) as an important factor should be well thought of.

HVC/IVC Maps and HVC Distribution Functions

2004
This chapter presents an overview of the basic sky, velocity, column density, volume density, area, and flux distributions of the high-velocity clouds (HVCs). All-sky maps are shown of their deviation and GSR velocities, and their column densities.

Are Highly-Ionized HVCs a Galactic Phenomenon?

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
Highly‐ionized high‐velocity clouds have been studied for the last decade. Some lines of reasoning have suggested an extragalactic origin for these clouds, placing them near the outskirts of the Milky Way or Local Group, and some models have explored the possibility that they may be associated with dark matter minihalos. We have observed highly‐ionized

HVC: A Hybrid Cloud Computing Framework in Vehicular Environments

2017 5th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Cloud Computing, Services, and Engineering (MobileCloud), 2017
As increasingly more applications are deployed in vehicles, how to provide the demanded computational capability becomes crucial. This paper proposes the hybrid vehicular cloud (HVC) framework for cloud computing on the road to increase the computational capability of vehicles by using resources from the centralized cloud, RSU, and neighboring vehicles.
