Reduced-Encoding Dynamic Imaging
… dynamic information. The two-reference reduced-encoding imaging by generalized-series reconstruction (TRIGR) method suppresses background information through the use of a second high-resolution reference image. A second technique injects information from the dynamic data into the GS basis …

A Model of Scaffolded Encoding
… study-test design, we have inaccurately assumed encoding happens only at study and retrieval happens only at test. However, it’s entirely possible that encoding and retrieval happen simultaneously at both study, with explicit repetition, and test, with implicit repetition. The fallacy that …

Microprocessor simulation of speech-encoding
… and adaptive delta modulation systems for speech encoding and decoding are presented. The systems are based on the Signetics 8X300 microprocessor evaluation board. As this device operates under software control, this feature allows for making as much modifications as required during development at …

Encoding Problems in Controller Synthesis
High-level synthesis systems design circuits that consist of a datapath and a controller. The datapath is a network of modules that is capable of performing the specified behavior. The controller is a circuit that delivers the proper sequence of control signals to the modules of the datapath. The …

Privacy-preserving encoding for cloud computing
… is developed, where the combination of encoding and distribution helps provide the balance between security, performance and utility. Privacy is maintained by each distributed entity only receiving a small portion of the actual data through encoding, where attempting to brute-force the …

Encoding by Children, Acoustic or Semantic.
Underwood (1969) conceptualized memory for a word as involving the retention of a collection of attributes. Different types of encoded information are represented by these attributes, which serve to discriminate one memory from another. The attributes which are established as a memory during …

Nonadaptive lossy encoding of sparse signals
At high rate, a sparse signal is optimally encoded through an adaptive strategy that finds and encodes the signal's representation in the sparsity-inducing basis. This thesis examines how much the distortion rate (D(R)) performance of a nonadaptive encoder, one that is not allowed to explicitly …

Information theoretic measures for encoding video
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Program in Media Arts & Sciences, 1995.

MPEG encoding on the Raw microprocessor
… the real-world application of MPEG-2 encoding on the Raw microprocessor. Much of the work involves partitioning the problem so that linear speedup can be achieved with respect to both number of Raw tiles and size of the video image being encoded. These speedups are confirmed through …

Temporal encoding in the visual system
A new model for temporal and spatial encoding in the visual system is developed and presented. The model indicates that spatial information is encoded in a manner similar to the encoding of temporal information. Experimental evidence related to this model is presented and analyzed. The temporal …

Encoding sex ratio information: automatic or effortful?
… as a construct that may influence behaviors. The encoding of sex ratio was examined in order to determine whether the cognitive process underlying it is automatic or effortful. Further, the current work examines whether OSR or Adult Sex Ratio (ASR: the ratio of adult males to females) is encoded. …

Analog parallel processor solutions for video encoding
This thesis deals with Cellular Nonlinear Network (CNN) analog parallel processor networks and their implementations in current video coding standards. The target applications are low-power video encoders within 3rd generation mobile terminals. The video codecs of such mobile terminals are defined …

Analysis of Encoding Schemes for String Indexing
… We investigate learning alternate schemes for encoding and inserting strings into index structures such as the adaptive radix tree (ART) and their impact on memory and lookup performance. In this thesis, we examine three different properties of string datasets and perform three experiments …

Reevaluating Encoding-Retrieval Match and Cue Overload
The encoding specificity principle, initially proposed by Thompson and Tulving in 1973, asserts that the congruence between encoding and retrieval conditions plays a crucial role in successful memory retrieval. Although this principle has largely been supported, Nairne (2002) has challenged memory …

Encoding and Processing of Accessory Olfactory System Odorants
The accessory olfactory system is a mouse olfactory subsystem dedicated to the processing of nonvolatile odors originating from the excretions of other animals. Accessory olfactory system activity drives behaviors critical for mouse survival such as mating, aggression, and predator avoidance. …

Visual encoding quality and scalability in information visualization
… and computer processes, such as visual encoding. Visual encoding consists in mapping data variables to visual variables, and its quality is critical to the effectiveness of information visualizations. The scalability of a visual encoding is the extent to which its quality is preserved as …

Working Memory Processes in the Encoding of Intentions
… functioning and cue/act discrimination during encoding of intentions. The study included manipulations of working memory and intention load to investigate the encoding processes related to prospective memory (PM). Three experiments are presented that involve working memory distraction tasks at …
