The Influence of Polarimetric Parameters and an Object-Based Approach on Land Cover Classification in Coastal Wetlands

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2014
The purpose of this study was to examine how different polarimetric parameters and an object-based approach influence the classification results of various land use/land cover types using fully polarimetric ALOS PALSAR data over coastal wetlands in ...

Free Choice Navigation in the Real World: Giving Back Freedom to Wayfinders

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2023
In recent years, there has been collected evidence suggesting that increased usage of navigation assistance systems has a harmful effect on spatial cognition, including spatial knowledge acquisition. Previously, we proposed a potential remedy called Free

Learning Spatial Models for Navigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Typically, autonomous robot navigation relies on a detailed, accurate map. The associated representations, however, do not readily support human-friendly interaction. The approach reported here offers an alternative: navigation with a spatial model and commonsense qualitative spatial reasoning. Both are based on research about how people experience and

Multisensory input modulates memory-guided spatial navigation in humans

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Efficient navigation is supported by a cognitive map of space. The hippocampus plays a key role for this map by linking multimodal sensory information with spatial memory representations.

Rethinking GPS navigation: creating cognitive maps through auditory clues

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
GPS navigation is commonplace in everyday life. While it has the capacity to make our lives easier, it is often used to automate functions that were once exclusively performed by our brain. Staying mentally active is key to healthy brain aging. Therefore,

Spatial Representation for Navigation in Animats [PDF]

open access: yesAdaptive Behavior, 1996
This article considers the problem of spatial representation for animat navigation systems. It is proposed that the global navigation task, or "wayfinding, " is best supported by multiple interacting subsystems, each of which builds its own partial representation of relevant world knowledge.

Integrated GNSS Attitude Determination and Positioning for Direct Geo-Referencing

open access: yesSensors, 2014
Direct geo-referencing is an efficient methodology for the fast acquisition of 3D spatial data. It requires the fusion of spatial data acquisition sensors with navigation sensors, such as Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers.

Psychometric Tests and Spatial Navigation: Data From the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2020
Spatial cognition is the process by which individuals interact with their spatial environment. Spatial cognition encompasses the specific skills of spatial memory, spatial orientation, and spatial navigation.

“CityQuest,” A Custom-Designed Serious Game, Enhances Spatial Memory Performance in Older Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Spatial cognition is known to decline with aging. However, little is known about whether training can reduce or eliminate age-related deficits in spatial memory.

Spatial frameworks in imagined navigation [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2006
The spatial framework model proposes that people use the extensions of their body axes as a reference frame for encoding spatial layouts in memory, and that the physical and functional properties of our bodies and the world determine the accessibility of egocentric locations from memory representations.
