Intrinsic Differentiability and Intrinsic Regular Surfaces in Carnot groups
The main object of our research is the notion of "intrinsic regular surfaces" introduced and studied by Franchi, Serapioni, Serra Cassano in a Carnot group G. More precisely, an intrinsic regular hypersurface (i.e. a topological codimension 1 surface) S is a subset of G which is locally defined as …

Extrinsic/intrinsic motivational study
… of the study is to understand how extrinsic/intrinsic motivation will encourage student learning in a sixth grade learning setting. The drawing population was approximately 157 students. The sample of the study consisted of 43 sixth graders. The students were given pre-assessment and …

Intrinsic PUFs for commodity devices
… several novel designs and improvements for Intrinsic PUFs are proposed and experimentally validated, with an aim towards achieving practical Intrinsic PUFs for ubiquitous underlying technologies that currently lack such a design. <br/><br/>

Intrinsic Disorder in Transcription Factors
… evidence suggested that high abundance of intrinsic disorder in eukaryotic genomes in comparison to bacteria and archaea may reflect the greater need for disorder-associated signaling and transcriptional regulation in nucleated cells. The major advantage of intrinsically disordered proteins …

Predictable verification using intrinsic definitions
… mechanism of defining data structures using intrinsic definitions that avoids recursion and instead utilizes monadic maps satisfying local conditions. We show that intrinsic definitions are a powerful mechanism that can capture a variety of data structures naturally. We show that they also …

Shape design using intrinsic geometry
… outlines a methodology of shape synthesis using intrinsic geometry concepts for engineering design of two-dimensional and three-dimensional curves as well as three-dimensional surfaces. Using concepts of intrinsic geometry of curves, the shape of a curve can be defined in terms of intrinsic …

Circadian Rhythm in Intrinsic Heart Rate
… concluded that diurnal HR variation arise from intrinsic remodeling in SA node. To re-examine the mechanisms controlling circadian HR fluctuations, we performed surface electrocardiographic recordings (sECG) at 4 time points per day (ZT0, ZT6, ZT12 and ZT18) in CD1 mice that had been …

Intrinsic representation : bootstrapping symbols from experience
… adaptive knowledge representation scheme that is intrinsic to the model and not parasitic on meanings captured in some external system, such as the head of a human investigator.

Intrinsic constraints on cross-modal plasticity
… This thesis examines the extent to which cues intrinsic to the target provide information to these novel retino-MGN projections. It will consider two examples in which the target structure imposes order onto the incoming sensory input; via intra-nuclei patterning and via a behaviorally relevant …

Intrinsic cytometry based on computational microscopy
… of understanding cells, we propose to study the intrinsic properties of individual cells by combining visual observation from large field-of-view computational microscopy with separation of cells via an integrated label-free microfluidic platform. This intrinsic cytometry will benefit from the …

Determining intrinsic scene characteristics from images
… are found to be useful in the recovery of intrinsic scene characteristics. Finally, mechanisms for interaction among different sources of information obtained from different shape modules are studied. It is demonstrated that interactions among shape modules can enhance the data acquired by …

Intrinsic Motivation and Academic Achievement: The Role of Teacher Behaviors in Promoting Intrinsic Motivation and Academic Achievement
<p>Research has shown that students’ intrinsic motivation for school work is a more important contribution and predictor of academic achievement than extrinsic motivation. This study hypothesized that there are certain behaviors a teacher can do to promote intrinsic motivation in students. A …

Cascaded Digital Refinement for Intrinsic Evolvable Hardware
Intrinsic evolution of reconfigurable hardware is sought to solve computational problems using the intrinsic processing behavior of System-on-Chip (SoC) platforms. SoC devices combine capabilities of analog and digital embedded components within a reconfigurable fabric under software control. A new …

On intrinsic uncertainties in earth system modelling
… about physical processes but has its seeds in intrinsic, i.e. inevitable and irreducible, uncertainties concerning the process of modelling as well. Therefore, it is indispensable to quantify uncertainty in order to determine, which are robust results under this inherent uncertainty. The …

Intrinsic Hardware Evolution on the Transistor Level
This thesis presents a novel approach to the automated synthesis of analog circuits. Evolutionary algorithms are used in conjunction with a fitness evaluation on a dedicated ASIC that serves as the analog substrate for the newly bred candidate solutions. The advantage of evaluating the candidate …

Intrinsic Geometric Flows on Manifolds of Revolution
An intrinsic geometric flow is an evolution of a Riemannian metric by a two-tensor. An extrinsic geometric flow is an evolution of an immersion of a manifold into Euclidean space. An extrinsic flow induces an evolution of a metric because any immersed manifold inherits a Riemannian metric from …
