Through Doorways and Down Corridors: Investigating Asymmetries During Computer Maze Navigation

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2020
Pseudoneglect causes neurologically intact individuals to bias their attention to the left in near space, and to the right in far space. These attentional asymmetries impact both ambulatory and non-ambulatory activities, causing individuals to deviate ...

Socioeconomic predictors of cognition in Ugandan children: implications for community interventions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Several interventions to improve cognition in at risk children have been suggested. Identification of key variables predicting cognition is necessary to guide these interventions. This study was conducted to identify these variables in Ugandan

Inertial-Magnetic Sensors for Assessing Spatial Cognition in Infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper describes a novel approach to the assessment of spatial cognition in children. In particular we present a wireless instrumented toy embedding magneto-inertial sensors for orientation tracking, specifically developed to assess the ability to ...

Historical Evolution of Spatial Abilities

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, 1993
Historical evolution and cross-cultural differences in spatial abilities are analyzed. Spatial abilities have been found to be significantly associated with the complexity of geographical conditions and survival demands.

Elephant cognition in primate perspective

open access: yes, 2009
On many of the staple measures of comparative psychology, elephants show no obvious differences from other mammals, such as primates: discrimination learning, memory, spontaneous tool use, etc. However, a range of more naturalistic measures have recently

Spatial models for context-aware indoor navigation systems: A survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper surveys indoor spatial models developed for research fields ranging from mobile robot mapping, to indoor location-based services (LBS), and most recently to context-aware navigation services applied to indoor environments.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Spontaneous body movements in spatial cognition

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2012
People often perform spontaneous body movements during spatial tasks such as giving complex directions or orienting themselves on maps. How are these spontaneous gestures related to spatial problem-solving?

Hyperspectral Image Superresolution Using Global Gradient Sparse and Nonlocal Low-Rank Tensor Decomposition With Hyper-Laplacian Prior

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
This article presents a novel global gradient sparse and nonlocal low-rank tensor decomposition model with a hyper-Laplacian prior for hyperspectral image (HSI) superresolution to produce a high-resolution HSI (HR-HSI) by fusing a low-resolution HSI (LR ...
