Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2019 Background:. Cranial vault reshaping to correct craniosynostosis in infants may injure terminal branches of the trigeminal nerve, namely the supraorbital, supratrochlear, zygomaticofacial, and zygomaticotemporal nerves, especially if a fronto-orbital ...

Selection of a Model of Cerebral Activity for fMRI Group Data Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 This thesis is dedicated to the statistical analysis of multi-sub ject fMRI data, with the purpose of identifying bain structures involved in certain cognitive or sensori-motor tasks, in a reproducible way across sub jects. To overcome certain limitations of standard voxel-based testing methods, as implemented in the Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM)

Computational Capacity of an Odorant Discriminator: the Linear Separability of Curves [PDF]
arXiv, 2000 We introduce and study an artificial neural network, inspired by the probabilistic Receptor Affinity Distribution model of olfaction. Our system consists on N sensory neurons whose outputs converge on a single processing linear threshold element. The system's aim is to model discrimination of a single target odorant from a large number p of background ...

Delay before synchronization and its role in latency of sensory awareness [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 Here we show that for coupled-map systems, the length of the transient prior to synchronization is both dependant on the coupling strength and dynamics of connections: systems with fixed connections and with no self-coupling display quasi-instantaneous synchronization. Too strong tendency for synchronization would in terms of brain dynamics be expected

Auditory Discrimination and Auditory Sensory Behaviours in Autism Spectrum Disorders [PDF]
, 2009 It has been hypothesised that auditory processing may be enhanced in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). We tested auditory discrimination ability in 72 adolescents with ASD (39 childhood autism; 33 other ASD) and 57 IQ and age-matched controls, assessing ...

Networked Control with Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request Protocols [PDF]
arXivWe study feedback control of a dynamical process over a lossy channel equipped with a hybrid automatic repeat request protocol that connects a sensor to an actuator. The dynamical process is modeled by a Gauss-Markov process, and the lossy channel by a packet-erasure channel with ideal feedback.

Reliability of Smartphone-Based Vibration Threshold Measurements [PDF]
arXivSmartphone-based measurement platforms can collect data on human sensory function in an accessible manner. We developed a smartphone app that measures vibration perception thresholds by commanding vibrations with varying amplitudes and recording user responses via (1) a staircase method that adjusts a variable stimulus, and (2) a decay method that ...
