In Search of an Integrative Method to Study Unconscious Processing: An Application of Bayesian and General Recognition Theory Models to the Processing of Hierarchical Patterns in t... by Antonio Prieto, Pedro R. Montoro, Mikel Jimenez, José Antonio Hinojosa

“…We combined a priming task where participants had to report global or local shapes, with the use of subjective and objective awareness measures collected either in a separate block (offline), or trial-by-trial during the main task (online). The unconscious processing of the masked primes was then evaluated through two different novel model-based methods: a Bayesian and a General Recognition Theory modeling approach. …”

Vibration Frequencies Extraction of the Forth Road Bridge Using High Sampling GPS Data by Jian Wang, Xiaolin Meng, Changbiao Qin, Jiaohong Yi

“…To understand the change in the structural characteristics under different loadings, the deformation results from three different loading conditions are presented, that is, the ambient circulation loading, the strong wind under abrupt wind speed change, and the specific trial with two 40 t lorries passing the bridge. The results show that GPS not only can capture absolute 3D deflections reliably, but also can be used to extract the frequency response accurately. …”

LCZ696 Therapy Reduces Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia Inducibility in a Myocardial Infarction-Induced Heart Failure Rat Model by Po-Cheng Chang, Shien-Fong Lin, Yen Chu, Hung-Ta Wo, Hui-Ling Lee, Yu-Chang Huang, Ming-Shien Wen, Chung-Chuan Chou

“…LCZ696 (valsartan/sacubitril) therapy significantly reduced mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Although a clinical trial (PARADISE-MI Trial) has been ongoing to examine the effects of LCZ696 in myocardial infarction (MI) patients, the effects of LCZ696 on remodeling of cardiac electrophysiology in animal models remain largely unclear. …”

Harmonization of the fastest and densest responses reflects humanlike reaction time in mice by Chan Hee Kim

“…Unlike humans, whose RT usually reflects a one-to-one stimulus–response relationship, the RT of animals can show two peaks representing the fastest and densest responses in the response distribution due to multiple responses per trial and can be further delayed depending on stimulus duration.MethodsStimulus duration was controlled to investigate whether these two peak latencies align to form a single RT. …”

Dopamine Appetite and Cognitive Impairment in Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder by Jonathan Williams, Eric Taylor

“…The TD model contains four parameters: the learning rate, discounting for future rewards, brittleness (randomness) of behavior, and action bias. The results show that the basic TD model accounts well for control performance in trials of 5 sec, 10 sec, and 15 sec duration; but not for the deficits in ADHD performance at 5 sec and 15 sec. …”
