Understanding diagrams based on symbolic and spatial mapping
Diagrams have been used for over a millennium to communicate rich meaning for diverse purposes. Three major and persistent problems concerning our understanding of diagrams have been identified and must be addressed: 1. The variety of diagram types 2. Handling changes while retaining well …

Constrained Spectral Conditioning for the Spatial Mapping of Sound
… arrays of microphones are utilized to spatially isolate distinct sources and mitigate interfering noise which contaminates single-microphone measurements. Array measurements are still biased by interfering noise which is coherent over the spatial array aperture. When interfering noise …

Spatial Mapping in Wild White -Faced Capuchin Monkeys (Cebus Capucinus)
… concerning human and nonhuman primate cognition, spatial memory, and the ability of monkeys to form mental maps of the location and distribution of feeding and resting sites across a forested landscape. Primates exploit home ranges that vary on spatial scales ranging from less than one hectare to …

Modeling spatial mapping, memory and their underlying mechanisms in the hippocampal complex
… is fundamental to tasks such as navigation, spatial reasoning, and understanding the relationships between objects in the environment. Spatial mapping in humans involves several cognitive processes, including perception, memory, and spatial reasoning. Memory plays a crucial role in spatial …

Cavitation monitoring and spatial mapping for pulsed high-intensity focused ultrasound enhanced drug delivery
… detection are of either limited sensitivity or spatial mapping capability to monitor the site of occurrence and the extent of bubble activity in tissue. In this dissertation, three metrics of cavitation activity induced by pHIFU and evaluated by confocal passive cavitation detection were …

Environment Mapping in Larger Spaces
Spatial mapping or environment mapping is the process of exploring a real world environment and creating its digital representation. To create convincing mixed reality programs, an environment mapping device must be able to detect a user's position and map the user's environment. Currently …

FingerEye: An Electrotactile-mechanism Enabled Adaptive Sensory-substitution Aid for the Blind and Visually Impaired
… of the electro-tactile stimuli, dynamic spatial mapping, pattern identification, and sub-divisional spatial mapping based on the bio-impedance feedback. These investigations facilitate the understanding of the non-linearity of the skin properties and relevant neuro-electric stimulation …

Flexible, stretchable, biointegrated arrays of electronic thermal sensors and actuators for advancements in clinical medicine
… measurements of skin properties do not provide spatial mapping, which is critical to arriving at the most important results. Here we present a class of devices that conform to skin in an intimate, non-intrusive way to provide high precision mapping of temperature and thermal transport signals on …

Identities of difference in the contemporary city: a spatial and policy analysis of men who sell sex in metropolitan Sydney
… high conflict rates. Through policy reviews, spatial mapping, and in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, this research explores both the permissibility of the land use termed “home occupation (sex services) (HOSS)” and the understanding of MWSS in metropolitan Sydney. Analysis of planning …

Concentration profiles and mapping of ambient air quality in the Shenandoah National Park
… developed included three—dimensional spatial mapping, percentage and frequency distributions, and altitude—based scatter diagrams. Elementary statistical analyses and correlations of the measured parameters were also performed. Data gathered in eight flights to the Shenandoah National …

Finding a cohesive and effective conservation in the Overberg - an experimental application of the agglomeration bonus
… of both the normal form game theory and spatial mapping approaches to the problem in a three-player context. The primary finding of this work is that in a controlled environment the application of an agglomeration bonus does result in the creation of contiguous reserves between adjacent …

Multimodal interactions in virtual environments using eye tracking and gesture control.
… relies on users perception on the exact spatial mapping between the virtual space and the physical space. It raises an underexplored issue that whether gaze can introduce misalignment of the spatial mapping and lead to users misperception and interactive errors. Furthermore, the accuracy …

2D materials based nanopore structures as single molecule sensors
… applications are the limitations on temporal and spatial resolution. The finite thickness of membranes limit the spatial resolution of the measurement as multiple nucleotides occupy the pore at a given instant, reducing the sensitivity of the signal making single nucleotide resolution difficult to …

Energy Efficient Computing in FPGA Through Embedded RAM Blocks
… e.g. transcendental functions. Conventional spatial mapping of theseoperations to the configurable logic blocks (CLBs) or embedded DSP blocks of a FPGA device imposes a major bottleneck in energy efficiency. In this thesis, we propose to use embedded memory blocks (EMBs) in FPGA for …
