A Computational Model of Grid Cells based on a Recursive Growing Neural Gas
The entorhinal cortex of rat contains neurons, called "grid cells", that exhibit a very peculiar behavior. Discovered about a decade ago, the activity of these cells was found to correlate with the allocentric position of the animal by forming a regular, hexagonal lattice of firing fields across the entire environment. Due to this unusual behavior and the proximity of the entorhinal cortex to other brain regions that also contain cells with spatially correlated activity grid cells are commonly recognized as an important element of a neuronal system for navigation. Existing computational models of grid cells share this view and typically describe the behavior of grid cells as a path integrati...
Nonlocality in Quantum Physics
The nonlocality phenomena exhibited by entangled quantum systems are certainly one of the most extraordinary aspects of quantum theory. This book discusses this phe nomenon according to several points of view, i.e., according to different interpretations of the mathematics of the quantum formalism. The several interpretations of the Copenhagen interpretation, the many worlds, the de Broglie-Bohm, quantum logics, the decohering by the environment approach and the histories approach interpretations are scrutinized and criticized in detail. Recent results on cryptography, quantum bit commitment, quantum erasers and teleportation are also presented and discussed. In preparing the book we benefit...
THE CURE
Daryus Thompson is living a tedious, dull life, and even his loyal girlfriend Serenna cannot cheer him up. Weighed down by money troubles, work boredom and relationship problems, all he can see is a bleak, predictable and boring future. That is until he puts his secret plan into action—a strategy involving an illicit bank loan, a kidnap, and going on the run! The problem is, the woman he chooses to abduct just happens to be the Police Chief's wife ... and the Chief and his detective Dan are on his tail. Can Daryus pull it off and manage to create a new life for himself, or will his bold ruse completely ruin it and get him locked up for a long time?
Nanostructured Thin Films and Nanodispersion Strengthened Coatings
This volume contains proceedings of the NATO-Russia Advanced Research Workshop on Nanostructured Thin Films and Nanodispersion Strengthened Coatings (December, 2003, Moscow). During this Workshop leading researchers from twelve countries had presented and discussed most recent developments in the fields of plasma physics and surface engineering related to the preparation and applications of nanostructured thin films and nanodispersion strengthened coatings. These presentations are encompassed in 31 individual chapters. The chapters are assembled in five parts in according to the workshop sessions. Part I is a compilation of chapters on hard and tribological coatings. The recent advances in t...
My Angel Andrei
My personal story may be written by a first time writer, nonetheless it is written with passion from someone who experienced each day the struggle with cancer with optimism to survive. The life of Andrei Romero is a true story of courage, hope and the lessons taught to us by such a wise young child. The memories left behind give us the strength to continue and the capability to smile at life. Parents whose children may be stricken with cancer can learn the significance of survival through my personal experience and the gift of life.
Numerical Geometry, Grid Generation and Scientific Computing
The focus of these conference proceedings is on research, development, and applications in the fields of numerical geometry, scientific computing and numerical simulation, particularly in mesh generation and related problems. In addition, this year’s special focus is on Voronoi diagrams and their applications, celebrating the 150th birthday of G.F. Voronoi. In terms of content, the book strikes a balance between engineering algorithms and mathematical foundations. It presents an overview of recent advances in numerical geometry, grid generation and adaptation in terms of mathematical foundations, algorithm and software development and applications. The specific topics covered include: quas...
