Compatibility and trade-off between performance: an alternative view [PDF]

, 1995
An issue on which opinions still differ concerns the presence or absence of trade-offs between different types of manufacturing performance. In an attempt to provide some empirical evidence to resolve this argument, a recent conference paper examined ...

How protein stability and new functions trade off. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2008
Numerous studies have noted that the evolution of new enzymatic specificities is accompanied by loss of the protein's thermodynamic stability (DeltaDeltaG), thus suggesting a tradeoff between the acquisition of new enzymatic functions and stability ...

Trade-offs among cost, integration, and segregation in the human connectome

Network Neuroscience, 2023
The human brain structural network is thought to be shaped by the optimal trade-off between cost and efficiency. However, most studies on this problem have focused on only the trade-off between cost and global efficiency (i.e., integration) and have ...

Unifying Speed-Accuracy Trade-Off and Cost-Benefit Trade-Off in Human Reaching Movements

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Two basic trade-offs interact while our brain decides how to move our body. First, with the cost-benefit trade-off, the brain trades between the importance of moving faster toward a target that is more rewarding and the increased muscular cost resulting ...

Evidence of the trade-off between starvation and predation risks in ducks [PDF]

, 2011
The theory of trade-off between starvation and predation risks predicts a decrease in body mass in order to improve flight performance when facing high predation risk.

Visual Working Memory Cannot Trade Quantity for Quality

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Two main models have been proposed to describe how visual working memory (WM) allocates its capacity: the slot-model and the continuous resource-model. The purpose of the current study was to test a direct prediction of the resource model suggesting that
