Regularization operators for natural images based on nonlinear perception models.

2006

Image restoration requires some a priori knowledge of the solution. Some of the conventional regularization techniques are based on the estimation of the power spectrum density. Simple statistical models for spectral estimation just take into account second-order relations between the pixels of the image. However, natural images exhibit additional features, such as particular relationships between local Fourier or wavelet transform coefficients. Biological visual systems have evolved to capture these relations. We propose the use of this biological behavior to build regularization operators as an alternative to simple statistical models. The results suggest that if the penalty operator take…

The finite element implementation of 3D fractional viscoelastic constitutive models

2018

Abstract The aim of this paper is to present the implementation of 3D fractional viscoelastic constitutive theory presented in Alotta et al., 2016 [1]. Fractional viscoelastic models exactly reproduce the time dependent behaviour of real viscoelastic materials which exhibit a long “fading memory”. From an implementation point of view, this feature implies storing the stress/strain history throughout the simulations which may require a large amount of memory. We propose here a number of strategies to effectively limit the memory required. The form of the constitutive equations are summarized and the finite element implementation in a Newton-Raphson integration scheme is described in detail. …

Scrivere del Mezzogiorno.Processi di auto-orientalism nella Letteratura italiana

2014

Questo lavoro guarda al contributo che la letteratura italiana ha dato relativamente alla costruzione e alla sedimentazione, nell'immaginario comune e nella percezione pubblica, dell'identità geografica e culturale del Mezzogiorno, ovvero di quella «consapevolezza geopolitica» di cui parlava Edward Said a proposito di altre aree del globo. Per fare ciò, sono stati identificati e presi in esame due diversi momenti che nella storia d'Italia si sono contraddistinti per una forte ridiscussione dell'immagine delle regioni meridionali del paese. I decenni immediatamente successivi all'Unità, infatti, sono stati caratterizzati da ampi dibattiti in merito al ruolo che il Sud doveva avere all'intern…

The spontaneous use of memory aids at different educational levels

1996

Three groups of students in different educational levels: 8th–9th grade students (average age 15); 10th–11th grade students (average age 16); and college students (average age 21), completed a metamemory questionnaire on the use of external, general, and formal memory aids in everyday life and study situations. Short-term repetition, mental rehearsing, and summary elaboration were the most frequent aids. The least frequently used were those that require a special training to be used effectively (e.g. Digit-letters and method of loci). There were differences in the use of general memory aids due to education level, but not in the case of external and formal memory aids. Results showed also t…

El SIDA como enfermedad social: análisis de su presencia e investigación

2005

Jose.R.Bueno@uv.es Amparo.Madrigal@uv.es francisco.j.mestre@uv.es Al objeto de analizar aquellos elementos psicosociales que definen la difusión del VIH/SIDA, la Unidad de Investigación coordinada por el Profesor José R. Bueno Abad de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales de la Universidad de Valencia ha puesto en marcha una investigación que tiene como objetivo fundamental la detección y análisis de las representaciones sociales del VIH. A continuación se exponen algunos de los aspectos básicos de la enfermedad, su curso y tratamiento, revelados en las fases iniciales de recogida de datos de nuestra investigación a partir de numerosas investigaciones realizadas hasta la actualidad, el rastreo d…

Scoping review and concept analysis of early adolescents’ emotional skills : Towards development of a music therapy assessment tool

2021

Introduction: This paper describes the concept and content of early adolescents’ emotional skills among the general population. The research literature contains many emotional skills-related terms with overlapping meanings, and it can be challenging to determine which are applicable for example, to a music therapy assessment tool. This study comprises the first phase of developing an assessment tool for early adolescents’ emotional skills, namely, determining what is to be assessed. Method: A scoping review of the literature is presented with written definitions of emotional skills-related terms, as well as a concept analysis of the terms performed using Walker and Avant’s method. Results: …
