Ambiguity as a Resource to Inform Proto-Practices

open access: yesACM Trans. Comput. Hum. Interact., 2019
Skin conductance is an interesting measure of arousal level, largely unfamiliar to most end-users. We designed a mobile application mirroring end-users’ skin conductance in evocative visualizations, purposefully made ambiguous to invite rich ...

Iron isotope evidence for very rapid accretion and differentiation of the proto-Earth

open access: yesScience Advances, 2019
The iron isotope composition of Earth’s mantle requires planetary growth within 5 Ma of solar system formation. Nucleosynthetic isotope variability among solar system objects provides insights into the accretion history of terrestrial planets.

Ab Antiquo: Neural Proto-language Reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesNorth American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2019
Historical linguists have identified regularities in the process of historic sound change. The comparative method utilizes those regularities to reconstruct proto-words based on observed forms in daughter languages.

The progeny of a cosmic titan: a massive multi-component proto-supercluster in formation at z = 2.45 in VUDS [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
We unveil the complex shape of a proto-supercluster at z ∼ 2.45 in the COSMOS field exploiting the synergy of both spectroscopic and photometric redshifts.

Non-Māori-speaking New Zealanders have a Māori proto-lexicon

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
We investigate implicit vocabulary learning by adults who are exposed to a language in their ambient environment. Most New Zealanders do not speak Māori, yet are exposed to it throughout their lifetime.

A hierarchical, retinotopic proto-organization of the primate visual system at birth

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The adult primate visual system comprises a series of hierarchically organized areas. Each cortical area contains a topographic map of visual space, with different areas extracting different kinds of information from the retinal input.

Late Eocene onset of the Proto-Antarctic Circumpolar Current

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
The formation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is critical for the evolution of the global climate, but the timing of its onset is not well constrained.

The Segmentation of Proto-Objects in the Monkey Primary Visual Cortex.

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
During visual perception, the brain enhances the representations of image regions that belong to figures and suppresses those that belong to the background.

Nature and demise of the Proto-South China Sea

open access: yes, 2017
The term Proto-South China Sea has been used in a number of different ways. It was originally introduced to describe oceanic crust that formerly occupied the region north of Borneo where the modern South China Sea is situated.

HP–UHP Metamorphic Belt in the East Kunlun Orogen: Final Closure of the Proto-Tethys Ocean and Formation of the Pan-North-China Continent

open access: yesJournal of Petrology, 2018
The East Kunlun Orogen, the northwestern part of the Central China Orogenic Belt, is a long-lived accretionary orogenic belt that records the evolution and eventual destruction of branches of the Tethys Ocean, from the Cambrian to the Triassic.
