Quadrivial Pursuits

Hospital Practice, 1990
Abstract THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF TALK around universities lately about core curricula, the canon, the culturally excluded, and a variety of related topics. I both welcome and sometimes tire of these discussions because real engagement doesn’t quite seem to take place.

Trivial pursuit

Nursing Standard, 1988
I commend Nurse Snowden (Letters, Nursing Standard week ending December 19) for putting forward the patients' view. However one must be cautious in interpreting people's views; I have heard suggestions on uniform from some male patients that I doubt Nursing Standard would print (unless on page 3? ).

Stalking (obsessive pursuit)

Hospital Medicine, 2000
Stalking behaviour has long been recognized as causing great distress and prolonged psychological problems in many victims. Individuals subjected to stalking often feel powerless and helpless in the face of such unwelcome intrusions into their daily lives. There now seems to be a greater awareness and understanding of the phenomenon which, in turn, may

Models of pursuit

2022
This chapter deals with mathematical models for smooth-pursuit eye movements, starting with simple negative-feedback schemes. After pointing out their deficiencies, Robinson developed models that account for specific dynamic properties of pursuit behavior, such as the transient ocular oscillations that may occur at onset, and the adaptive properties of

Pursuit-deterrence revisited

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1995
Pursuit-deterrent signals - signals used by prey that apparently convince predators not to pursue them - were discovered 15 years ago, but their existence continues to rest on shaky empirical evidence. First, pursuit-deterrent signals are usually inferred by eliminating competing hypotheses rather than testing predictions derived from the pursuit ...

Asynchronous Cyclic Pursuit

2006
In this article we study the convergence of the positions of a multi-agent system in a cyclic pursuit under asynchronism and time delays. Each agent is assumed to operate on an infinite sequence of behaviors modeled by a finite state machine, which is represented by a discrete asynchronous mathematical model on a higher-level.

Curves of Pursuit

The Mathematical Gazette, 1956
The article by C. C. Puckette in a recent issue of the Gazette (Vol. 37, No. 322, pp. 256–260) prompts me to give some results I obtained when investigating the pursuit of a bomber by an attacking fighter.
