A Vector-based, Multidimensional Scanpath Similarity Measure

A great need exists in many fields of eye-tracking research for a robust and general method for scanpath comparisons. Current measures either quantize scanpaths in space (string editing measures like the Levenshtein distance) or in time (measures based on attention maps). This paper proposes a new pairwise scanpath similarity measure. Unlike previous measures that either use AOI sequences or forgo

Performance Estimation of Hybrid Excited Machine with Alternating Pole Configuration

This article focuses on a theoretical evaluation of a hybrid excited synchronous machine where the excitation circuit is a combination of electrically magnetized (EM) and permanent magnetized (PM) magnet poles in the rotor. This alternating pole configuration of electrically magnetized (EM) or permanent magnet (PM) poles determines the hybrid magnetization. The target of the analysis is a traction

European Convention on Human Rights in Latvia: Impact on legal doctrine and application of legal norms

Latvia offers an excellent point of departure for evaluating the influence of international human rights law through the European Convention on Human Rights on a sovereign state that has established itself as a democratic political system in the decline of the 20th century. This book explores the impact of the Convention on the domestic implementation of human rights provisions by studying the cas

Project Assessments in Construction and Real Estate - Analysing management of end-user needs and ensuring performance in the building life cycle. CREDIT Report 4

In this report a generic model for the capture and assessment of end-user requirements and needs, the CREDIT carpenter model, has been developed. The main determinants of the model is the need for the project organisation (including the facilities management organisation) to ensure a thorough understanding of the end-user requirements and needs as well as an assessment through out the project proc

A systematic approach to produce small courseware modules for combined learning and knowledge management environments

Combining technology enabled learning and knowledge management is a very promising strategy to systematic competence building in software organizations. In order to set-up a combined learning and knowledge management environment and to support organization members in packaging small chunks of knowledge into courseware modules, Fraunhofer IESE developed the IntView-KM methodology. IntView-KM define

Transferring Ownership of Public Housing to Existing Tenants: A Mechanism Design Approach

This paper explores the situation when tenants in public houses, in a specific neighborhood, are given the legislated right to buy the houses they live in but can choose to remain in their houses and pay the regulated rent. This type of legislation has been passed in many European countries in the last 30-35 years (U.K. Housing Act 1980 is a leading example). The main objective with this type of l

Tuning the magnetism of ordered and disordered strongly-correlated electron nanoclusters

Most recent publications on spin-related phenomena focus on technological aspects of spin-dependent transport, with emphasis on the specific needs of spintronics. The present publication targets rather fundamental problems related to the physics of spin in solids, such as: manifestation of spin and orbital polarization in spectroscopy, including valence and X-ray photoemission, magneto-optics, low
