Effect of an external visual cue on delivery of enteral nutrition in a university trauma/surgical/burn intensive care unit
… We sought to determine if use of an external visual cue by nursing increases delivery of goal enteral nutrition (EN) from baseline during the first 7 days of ICU admission. Methods: After achieving IRB approval we retrospectively evaluated all trauma/surgical/burn intensive care unit (TSBICU) …

Effectiveness of manual gesture treatment on residual /r/ articulation errors
… "manual mimicry" (a kinesthetic, gestural, and visual cue) in treating intractable /r/ errors in a young adult using a single subject ABAB design. Perceptual accuracy judgments of three types of listeners (experts, graduate clinician, and naïve listeners) indicated a positive treatment effect of …

Alterations in executive functioning induced by repeated amphetamine exposure
… 1, LE and SD rats were initially trained on a visual cue discrimination. During the set shift, rats were required to shift from the previously acquired visual-cue-based strategy to a response strategy (e.g.; always turn left, ignore the visual cue). For the reversal, rats were trained to …

TEACHING ADULTS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES TO COUNT AMERICAN SILVER COINS IN MULTIPLES OF FIVE
… to $0.99 using a finger-counting strategy with a visual cue. A teaching sequence of modeling by the instructor, participant imitation as the instructor modeled, and the participants independently counting was used for training. A multiple baseline across participants design was used to evaluate …

NICOTINE WITHDRAWAL AND DEFICITS IN COGNITIVE FLEXIBILITY: POSSIBLE TIES TO ABERRATIONS IN FRONTOSTRIATAL BDNF SIGNALING
… using a spatial response-driven strategy to a visual cue-based strategy to achieve rewards. Mice were exp

Use of sensory information by cerambycids and their natural enemies to locate resources and mates
… this dissertation is to extend knowledge of the cues and signals that cerambycids and their natural enemies use to locate mates and resources. Many species of longhorned beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) prefer to feed in trees that are stressed, weakened, or in the process of dying. These …

Testing the "Interrupt Hypothesis": Does startle disrupt cognitive processing?
… Networks Test (ANT), a combined flanker and cue reaction time task that measures the efficiency of several attentional networks, with the startle paradigm. Startle stimuli were presented in the interval between the onset of the visual cue and the onset of the target and results were compared …

Effects of a combined 3-D auditory/visual cueing system and non-distributed flight reference on visual target detection using a helmet-mounted display
… Non-Distributed Flight Reference and 3-D audio/visual cueing system for the purpose of easing pilot control and aiding target location. The Non-Distributed Flight Reference was compared against the Military Standard display, while three different target cues were presented for target …

Framework for Embodied Telepresence: A Meeting Case Study
… (3) Local smart light bulb control, and (4) visual cue. At the end, our work evaluates the developed telepresence system by measuring the performances of given tasks to the participants. The evaluation shows that our system provides a sense of presence to both remote and local users. However, …

Improving Patient Medication Reconciliation Participation and Compliance Through Education
… pamphlet was created, distributed as well as a visual poster that was placed in the waiting room as a visual cue. After implementing the project, medication reconciliation compliance increased from 38% to 40%. Although the goal was not reached, the results show that change is possible.</p> …

Attention mechanism in deep neural networks for computer vision tasks
… but also useful for the feature fusion, visual cue discovering, and temporal information selection, which are seldom researched. In this study, we take the classic attention mechanism a step further by proposing the <em>Semantic Attention Guidance Unit</em> (SAGU) for multi-level feature …

Intrinsic constraints on cross-modal plasticity
… blind human patients. In these animal models, visual input is induced to innervate the auditory or somatosensory thalamus, MGN and VB respectively, as a result of deafferentation of these nuclei. Such experiments have demonstrated that structures are influenced by their input, and therefore …

Human Perception of Aural and Visual Disparity in Virtual Environments
… with these environments has grown apparent. The visual and interaction components for virtual reality applications have been comprehensively studied, but a lack of spatial audio fidelity leaves a need for understanding how well humans can localize aural cues and discern audio-visual disparity in …

Texture measures for segmentation
Texture is an important visual cue in both human and computer vision. Segmenting images into regions of constant texture is used in many applications. This work surveys a wide range of texture descriptors and segmentation methods to determine the state of the art in texture segmentation. Two types …

The effect of dust blowback on spatial orientation estimation during lunar landing
… human perception of orientation under different visual cues using a helicopter simulator. We conducted a simulator-only lunar landing experiment with seventeen helicopter pilot subjects at USAARL utilizing the 6 degree-of-freedom moving-base UH-60 helicopter simulator. The subjects did not fly …

Chatbots and 3D maps : evaluating information retrieval across multiple mediums
… which has minimal affordance -- the only visual cue users are given is an empty text box, an initial greeting message, and a list of general topics the chatbot can respond to. Second, a table-mounted tactile / digital map display (tangible map), the proposed antithesis to the chatbot, …

The vomeronasal organ of the skink, Scincella lateralis: the morphology and role in predation
… epithelium, and lizards that are diurnal, visually oriented, and aboreal generally have smaller, less developed vomeronasal organs. Scincella lateralis responds to both visual and chemical cues of prey. A visual stimulus is associated with an increased rate of tongue flicking, orientation …
