Vision accuracy: comparisons
Solomon Asch conducted a Line Judgment Task in the 1950s that led researchers to believe that conformity can be assessed through experimentation. The purpose of this study was to modify that of Asch's experiment and to assess the answers that college undergraduate students would give. Twelve trials …

Accuracy in scientific visualisation
Quite often, accuracy is a neglected issue in scientific visualization. Indeed, in most of the visualizations there are two wrong assumptions: first, that the data visualized is accurate. Second, that the visualization process is exempt from errors. On these basis, the objectives of this thesis are …

The Accuracy of Initial Trust Judgments
… to answer the questions: are we able to achieve accuracy in our initial trust perceptions: study 1) and what mechanism may account for this accuracy: study 2)? The first study conducted was field based, using temporary student teams. I used the social relations model: SRM) to determine how trust …

Visual search strategy and interception accuracy
… of how visual search strategy and interception accuracy are influenced by constraints. Two experiments, manipulating spatial and temporal target motion configuration, assessed the role of constraints in interceptive aiming in interception accuracy and gaze control strategy. In Experiment 1, …

Speed and accuracy in movement timing
… study examined how speed was related to movement accuracy in terms of impulse variability. Impulse variability model had a significant role in explaining movement accuracy, but the model turned out to have some limitations for generalization. Therefore, there was a need to identify how kinetic …

Predictor of OCR accuracy using statistical techniques
… that predict optical character recognition (OCR) accuracy of an input image by a given OCR system were developed. Seven features associated with image defects were identified and utilized. Two kinds of nonparametric classification engines, the nearest neighbor rule-based and neural network-based, …
