Performance Fatigability: Mechanisms and Task Specificity [PDF]
, 2017 Performance fatigability is characterized as an acute decline in motor performance caused by an exercise-induced reduction in force or power of the involved muscles. Multiple mechanisms contribute to performance fatigability and originate from neural and

2015 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR), 2015 For some images, descriptions written by multiple people are consistent with each other. But for other images, descriptions across people vary considerably. In other words, some images are specific $-$ they elicit consistent descriptions from different people $-$ while other images are ambiguous.
