Extending correlation in branch prediction schemes
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1999)
The main aim of this research is to propose a new Two-Level Adaptive Branch Prediction scheme, based on additional correlation information. Conventional two-level adaptive branch prediction exploits the correlation between ...
Dark matter in early-type spiral galaxies: the case of NGC 2179 and of NGC 2775
(1999)
We present the stellar and ionized-gas velocity curves and velocity-dispersion profiles along the major axis for six early-type spiral galaxies. Two of these galaxies, namely NGC 2179 and NGC 2775, are particularly suited ...
Detecting partial occlusion of humans using snakes and neural networks
(1999)
This paper summarises the development of a computer system designed to detect moving humans in an image or series of images. The system combines the use of active contour models, ‘snakes’, which detect human objects in an ...
Ha spectropolarimetry of B[e] and Herbig Be stars
(1999)
We present the results of medium resolution ( v 60 km s−1) spectropolarimetric observations across H of a sample of B[e] and Herbig Be objects. A change in linear polarization across H is detected in a large fraction of ...
Communication as an Emergent Metaphor for Neuronal Operation
(1999)
The conventional computational description of brain operations has to be understood in a metaphorical sense. In this paper arguments supporting the claim that this metaphor is too restrictive are presented. A new metaphor ...
Effects of Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 on Ecological Functions in the Pea Rhizosphere Are Dependent on pH
(1999)
The aim of this microcosm study was to determine influence of the antibiotic 2,4 diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) on the effect of wild type and functionally modified Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 strains in a sandy loam soil ...
Time series prediction and neural networks
(1999)
Neural Network approaches to time series prediction are briefly discussed, and the need to specify an appropriately sized input window identified. Relevant theoretical results from dynamic systems theory are introduced, ...
A People Bewitched: Witchcraft and Magic in Nineteenth-Century Somerset
(Privately published, 1999)
The belief in witchcraft and magic was widespread in nineteenth-century Somerset. Witches were blamed for causing the ill health and death of people and their animals. Those accused of witchcraft often found themselves ...
Pathogenicity of Verticillium dahliae to spring linseed
(Association of Applied Biologists, 1999)
