An Assessment of Number Representation in the Small-Eared Bushbaby (<i>Otolemur garnettii</i>)
… effort to explain the underlying mechanisms of number representation, both the object-file and the approximate number system have been proposed. Despite the recognition in animals, both nonhuman and human, it remains unclear how numbers are represented cognitively or what system is employed. …

Visual Enumeration and Estimation: Brain mechanisms, Attentional demands and Number representations.
… this thesis explored the roles of attention and number awareness in visual enumeration and estimation through a variety of methods. First, a distinction was made between different attentional modes underlying estimation and enumeration in an in-depth single case study of a patient with …

Comparative Studies of Numerical Cognition in Nonhuman Primates: From Numerical Comparison to Arithmetic
… an evolutionarily ancient system of nonverbal number representation. By and large, the focus in the field has been on providing existence proofs of numerical competence in wide-ranging taxa or using individual species as models for comparisons with humans. Recent findings in numerical cognition …

Dynamics of Classical Systems in the Operator Algebra of Quantum Mechanics
… and lowering operators, especially using the number representation, provides useful tools for modeling collective dynamics of spatially distributed physical systems in a completely general and precise way. Quantum-like models (not necessarily related to the microscopic approach) offer an …

Componenti spaziali della rappresentazione cognitiva della grandezza del numero
The humans process the numbers in a similar way to animals. There are countless studies in which similar performance between animals and humans (adults and/or children) are reported. Three models have been developed to explain the cognitive mechanisms underlying the number processing. The …

Pipelining Of Double Precision Floating Point Division And Square Root Operations On Field-programmable Gate Arrays
… in DSP processing has been to use fixed point number representation, only recently have DSP processors begun to incorporate floating point arithmetic units, even though most of these units handle only single precision floating point addition/subtraction, multiplication, and occasionally …

Embedded hardware architecture for multi-parameter physiological signal monitoring
… (reduction in precision of the fixed-point number representation and reuse of hardware components) allows reducing the hardware footprint by a factor of 4.4 and power consumption by a factor of 2.7 as compared with an un-optimized hardware configuration. The second approach proposes an …

Enhancing Early Number Learning: Effects of an 8- Week Abacus Training Intervention on Subitising, Counting, and Motivation
… and policymakers to prioritise counting and number learning, many children continue to struggle to meet expected standards in this area globally (e.g., Department for Education, 2017; Steffe, 2017). This study addressed the current research gap by exploring how structure interventions, such …
