On the Fertility Effects of Pericentric Inversions [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1997
I N the most extensive and thorough study of the fertility of Drosophila females heterozygous for pericentric inversions carried out so far, COYNE et al. (1991, 1993) come to two important conclusions: (1 ) that many inversions do not show the expected degree of semisterility and are barely underdominant; and ( 2 ) that the degree of semisterility of ...

Many faces, one rule: The role of perceptual expertise in infants’ sequential rule learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Rule learning is a mechanism that allows infants to recognize and generalize rule-like patterns, such as ABB or ABA. Although infants are better at learning rules from speech vs.

Origins of the Inverse Electrocaloric Effect [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy Technology, 2018
AbstractThe occurrence of the inverse (or negative) electrocaloric effect, where the isothermal application of an electric field leads to an increase in entropy and the removal of the field decreases the entropy of the system under consideration, is discussed and analyzed. Inverse electrocaloric effects have been reported to occur in several cases, for

Neural correlates of cognitive aging during the perception of facial age:The role of relatively distant and local texture information

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Previous event-related potential (ERP) research revealed that older relative to younger adults show reduced inversion effects in the N170 (with more negative amplitudes for inverted than upright faces), suggestive of impairments in face perception ...

Body-Posture Recognition by Undergraduate Students Majoring in Physical Education and Other Disciplines

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Humans are more proficient at processing visual display of body posture when the body is in upright orientation, compared to when inverted (inversion effect).

The Facial Expression Action Stimulus Test. A test battery for the assessment of face memory, face and object perception, configuration processing and facial expression recognition

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
There are many ways to assess face perception skills. In this study, we describe a novel task battery FEAST (Facial Expression Action Stimulus Test) developed to test recognition of identity and expressions of human faces as well as stimulus control ...

Reversible Effects as Inverse Arrows

open access: yesElectronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
Reversible computing models settings in which all processes can be reversed. Applications include low-power computing, quantum computing, and robotics. It is unclear how to represent side-effects in this setting, because conventional methods need not respect reversibility.

Inverse Targeting - An Effective Immunization Strategy [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
We propose a new method to immunize populations or computer networks against epidemics which is more efficient than any method considered before. The novelty of our method resides in the way of determining the immunization targets. First we identify those individuals or computers that contribute the least to the disease spreading measured through their

Changing face contours reduces the inversion effect and overall recognition performance

open access: yesCurrent Research in Behavioral Sciences, 2023
This paper investigates how manipulating the face contour would systematically influence the face inversion effect (i.e., better recognition performance for upright vs inverted upside-down faces) and overall face recognition.

Inversion Reveals Perceptual Asymmetries in the Configural Processing of Human Body

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017
Ambiguous human bodies performing unimanual/unipedal actions are perceived more frequently as right-handed/footed rather than left-handed/footed, which suggests a perceptual and attentional bias toward the right side of others’ body.
