Annual Review of Entomology, 1997
▪ Abstract Many unusual features of scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) can be explained as historical legacy. Developmental specializations in ancestral coccoids resulted in a neotenous adult female and a drastic metamorphosis of the male. Subsequent evolution led to numerous, often convergently derived, adaptations to parasitic life on higher ...

Communicative Adaptability Scale
2020Duran defined communicative adaptability as a cognitive and behavioral “ability to perceive socio-interpersonal relationships and adapt one’s interaction goals and behaviors accordingly”. The scale appears to have strong concurrent validity. Social Composure and Social Experience are related to communication apprehension, Social Experience and Social ...

The vocational adaptation rating scales
Applied Research in Mental Retardation, 1982The Vocational Adaptation Rating Scales (VARS) were developed to provide a comprehensive assessment of maladaptive social behavior related to vocational success, but not directly measuring job performance of mentally retarded workers. Psychometric information derived from the VARS is useful for developing individualized educational plans (IEPs) for ...

2015 International Conference on Digital Image Computing: Techniques and Applications (DICTA), 2015
Image features vary in size and thus feature analysis often requires a multi-scale approach. Typically, this is achieved using a bank of filters centred at discrete scales. We introduce a novel filter bank constructed from Fourier series basis functions in the logarithmic frequency domain.

Scale-based adaptive smoothing
2010 2nd International Conference on Future Computer and Communication, 2010A novel adaptive smoothing approach is proposed for noise removal and feature preservation where the local object scale is adopted to detect the size of the local structure. Its main idea is: the variance and mask size of the Gaussian filter are controlled by the local object scale. There are two main contributions in this paper. First one, we change a

Scale-adaptive orientation estimation
Object recognition supported by user interaction for service robots, 2003This paper focuses on directional textures. It provides a new framework for the design of convolution masks dedicated to orientation estimation and an adaptive algorithm which chooses the best mask size for each pixel. The design of the adaptive algorithm is based on the combination of two complementary operators: a gradient based operator which is ...

Scale adaptive channel estimation
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2002Channel (linear operator) estimation requires either a-priori knowledge or joint estimation of channel temporal coherence. This information serves to condition the estimation process reducing estimator variance. Kalman-like conditional expectation algorithms have exhibited success by modeling the channel response via time evolution either assuming ...

An Adaptive Location-Scale Test
Biometrical Journal, 2001Summary: Increasing locations are often accompanied by an increase in variability. In this case apparent heteroscedasticity can indicate that there are treatment effects and it is appropriate to consider an alternative involving differences in location as well as in scale. As a location-scale test the sum of a location and a scale test statistic can be

Scaling invariance and adaptivity
Applied Numerical Mathematics, 2001The authors show that scaling invariance has the unique property amongst general transformations, that the properties of discretization and invariance commute. They consider the autonomous differential equation \(d\mathbf u /dt=\mathbf f (\mathbf u)\).

Child Routines Scale: Scale Adaptation Study
2023Çocuk rutinleri, çocuğu gelişimsel ve akademik olarak desteklemesi bakımından önemlidir. Bu çalışmada Sytsma, Kelley and Wymer (2001) tarafından geliştirilen ve özgün adı “Child Routines Inventory” olan Çocuk Rutinleri Ölçeğinin Türkçeye uyarlanması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma deseni olarak betimsel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır.
