  1. Motion-induced interocular suppression

    Wikify date April 2010 orphan date November 2007 When one eye is presented with a constantly moving visual pattern while the other eye is shown a stationary image, this image is typically suppressed from awareness for long periods of time Mendoza & Chaudhuri 2007 . The duration of this motion induced interocular suppression is comparable to that of continuous flash suppression thus, the two methods can be used alternatively. The duration of suppression in both methods is maximized if the image being suppressed has low luminance contrast or a low spatial frequency spectrum. Motion induced interocular suppression is fundamentally different from motion induced blindness firstly, the latter is due to the interaction of moving and stationary stimuli closely located within the same eye, while the former requires an interaction between stimuli presented to different eyes in corresponding visual areas. Secondly, motion induced interocular suppression can induce invisibility of a large stimulus presented at the fovea, whereas motion induced blindness requires the stimulus to be small and peripherally located. Thirdly, decreasing the contrast of the stimulus to be suppressed increases the duration of motion induced interocular suppression, but decreases the duration of motion induced blindness. Whether motion induced interocular suppression and continuous flash suppression have common neural mechanisms is still unknown.

  1. Induced homomorphism (algebraic topology)

    In mathematics , especially in the area of topology known as algebraic topology , an induced homomorphism is a way of relating the algebraic invariants of topological space s which are already related by a continuous function . ref cite book last Hatcher first Allen authorlink Allen Hatcher title Algebraic Topology publisher Cambridge University Press year 2002 isbn 0 521 79540 0 url http www.math.cornell.edu hatcher AT ATpage.html ref Such homomorphism exist whenever the algebraic invariants are functor ial. For example, they exist for fundamental group s, higher homotopy group s, singular homology , and De Rham cohomology . For the more category theory categorical approach, see induced homomorphism , and for the specific case of fundamental groups, see induced homomorphism fundamental group . Definitions A continuous function math f X to Y math between topological spaces possibly with some additional structure induces homomorphisms between various algebraic structures associated with math X math and math Y math , respectively. Examples A useful example is the induced homomorphism fundamental group induced homomorphism of fundamental groups . Likewise there are induced homomorphisms of higher homotopy group s and homology group s. Any homology theory comes with induced homomorphisms. For instance, simplicial homology , singular homology , and Borel Moore homology all have induced homomorphisms. Similarly, any cohomology comes induced homomorphisms. For instance, ech cohomology , de Rham cohomology , and singular cohomology all have induced homomorphisms. Generalizations such as cobordism also have induced homomorphisms.

  1. Exercise induced nausea

    Exercise induced nausea is a nausea feeling of sickness or vomiting which can occur shortly after exercise has stopped as well as during exercise itself. It may be a symptom of either over exertion during exercise, or from too abruptly ending an exercise session. People engaged in high intensity exercise such as aerobics and bicycling have reported suffering from exercise induced nausea. A study of 20 volunteers conducted at Nagoya University , Japan associated a higher degree of exercise induced nausea after eating. It has been suggested that exercise induced nausea could be caused by increased endorphin levels, which are released while exercising. Endorphins have been associated with nausea and vomiting, so this theory is plausible, but unsupported by evidence. Another possible cause of exercise induced nausea is water logging, another word for overhydration. Drinking too much water before, during, and or after exercise or at any time can cause nausea, diarrhea, confusion, and muscle tremors. If the overhydration is significant enough, it can be fatal. Excessive water consumption reduces or dilutes electrolyte levels in the body. It is encouraged to control your level of water intake when working out, and also to eat salty snacks when you have consumed too much water sodium and potassium are electrolytes .

  1. Induced subgraph isomorphism problem

    In Computational complexity theory complexity theory and graph theory , induced subgraph isomorphism is an NP complete decision problem that involves finding a given graph as an induced subgraph of a larger graph. Formally, the problem takes as input two graph theory graph s G sub 1 sub V sub 1 sub , E sub 1 sub and G sub 2 sub V sub 2 sub , E sub 2 sub , where the number of vertices in V sub 1 sub can be assumed to be less than or equal to the number of vertices in V sub 2 sub . G sub 1 sub is graph isomorphism isomorphic to an induced subgraph of G sub 2 sub if there is an injective function f which maps the vertices of G sub 1 sub to vertices of G sub 2 sub such that for all pairs of vertices x , y in V sub 1 sub , edge x , y is in E sub 1 sub if and only if the edge f x , f y is in E sub 2 sub . The answer to the decision problem is yes if this function f exists, and no otherwise. This is different from the subgraph isomorphism problem in that the absence of an edge in G sub 1 sub implies that the corresponding edge in G sub 2 sub must also be absent. In subgraph isomorphism, these extra edges in G sub 2 sub may be present. The special case of finding a long path graph theory path as an induced subgraph of a hypercube graph hypercube has been particularly well studied, and is called the snake in the box problem. The maximum independent set problem is also an induced subgraph isomorphism problem in which one seeks to find a large Independent set graph theory independent set as an induced subgraph of a larger graph, and the maximum clique problem is an induced subgraph isomorphism problem in which one seeks to find a large clique graph as an induced subgraph of a larger graph.

  1. Supplier induced demand

    Unreferenced date October 2008 In economics , supplier induced demand SID may occur when asymmetry of information exists between Distributor business supplier and consumer . The supplier can use superior information to encourage an individual to demand a greater quantity of the good or service they supply than the pareto efficient level, should asymmetric information not exist. The result of this is a welfare loss. Health economics Supplier induced demand is particularly important in health economics and healthcare markets, whereby doctors may encourage patients to demand healthcare they do not necessarily need. In this case the patient is induced to consume healthcare that he she would not, if he she had the same information as the doctor. There is limited evidence for supplier induced demand with the exception of surgical services. Supplier induced demand is easier with surgery because surgeons typically have a greater ability to manipulate demand. Especially true in the case of fee for service payments, physicians have incentives to promote more expensive procedures and care. A 1996 article by Johnathan Gruber and Maria Owings looked at the relationship between physician financial incentives and cesarean section delivery by examining declining fertility rates in the United States.

  1. Metal-induced crystallization

    Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 Metal induced crystallization MIC is a method by which amorphous silicon , or a Si, can be turned into polycrystalline silicon at relatively low temperature s. In MIC an amorphous Si film is deposited onto a substrate, usually glass or Si, and then capped with a metal , such as aluminium . The structure is then annealed at temperatures between 150  Celsius scale C and 400  C which causes the a Si films to be transformed into polycrystalline silicon. In a variant of this method, called Metal induced lateral crystallization MILC , metal is only deposited on some area of the a Si. Upon annealing, crystallization starts from the portion of a Si which is covered by metal and proceeds laterally. Unlike MIC process, where metal contamination in the obtained polysilicon is relatively high, the laterally crystallized silicon in MILC process contains very small amount of metal contamination. The crystallization speed is low, but is adequate for applications such as fabrication of thin film transistors . In this case, metal is deposited on the source drain area of the transistor and the channel is laterally crystallized. It has been also shown that applying an electric field increases the speed of lateral crystallization dramatically. Moreover, the crystallization proceeds unidirectionally.
