Add or multiply? : A tutorial on ranking and choosing with multiple criteria
(University of Hertfordshire, 2014)
Simple additive weighting is a well-known method for scoring and ranking alternative options based on multiple attributes. However the pitfalls associated with this approach are not widely appreciated. For example, the ...
Affinization of category O for quantum groups
(2014)
Let g be a simple Lie algebra. We consider the category ˆO of those modules over the affine quantum group Uq(bg) whose Uq(g)-weights have finite multiplicity and lie in a finite union of cones generated by negative roots. ...
Allocentric directional processing in the rodent and human retrosplenial cortex
(2014)
Head direction (HD) cells in the rodent brain have been investigated for a number of years, providing us with a detailed understanding of how the rodent brain codes for allocentric direction. Allocentric direction refers ...
"The fridge door is open" : temporal verification of a robotic assistant's behaviours
(Springer Nature, 2014)
Robotic assistants are being designed to help, or work with, humans in a variety of situations from assistance within domestic situations, through medical care, to industrial settings. Whilst robots have been used in ...
Dry matter yield and quality of forages derived from three grass species with and without legumes using organic production methods
(2014)
This study was the second year of an experiment which was carried out to investigate the use of forage grass species with and without legumes using organic production methods to produce forages for optimal dry matter yield ...
Synaptic plasticity and pattern recognition in cerebellar Purkinje cells
(Springer Nature, 2014)
Many theories of cerebellar learning assume that long-term depression (LTD) of synapses between parallel fibres (PFs) and Purkinje cells is the basis for pattern recognition in the cerebellum. Here we describe a series of ...
Cooperative cyclic sleep and doze mode selection for NG-PONs
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014)
This paper presents an energy efficient medium access control (MAC) protocol exhibiting intelligent switching among optical network unit (ONU) transceiver power levels. This is implemented by introducing a new methodology ...
