In this paper we present a metric that predicts differences in perceptual sharpness from physical parameters extracted from CCD camera recordings of sine-grating and step-profile test images. Sharpness differences were induced by using five different

Background: Abnormal results of diagnostic laboratory tests can be difficult to interpret when disease probability is very low. Although most physicians generally do not use Bayesian calculations to interpret abnormal results, their estimates of pret

Macht, ruil en affiniteit in een eenheidsmodel van cooperatieve spelen

According to the theory of two person cooperative games two persons can obtain a surplus by working together on condition that they reach an agreement on the division of that surplus, if not, they lose their surplus. This simple logic describes the m
