With the increased popularity of concession projects over the last three decades, there is a need for a decision support system (DSS) capable of evaluating and comparing several concession project investment (CPI) options in an effective and efficient manner. Hence, a novel DSS has been developed that takes into consideration both financial and nonfinancial aspects of the investment option, as well as the uncertainties commonly encountered during the feasibility stage of a project. The DSS is fully implemented as a standalone computer software package, ECCO (evaluate and compare concession options), in order to be of practical use. This paper outlines and validates ECCO’s design and structure through the demonstration of its capabilities in the evaluation and comparison of three real-life CPI case studies. 相似文献

We have measured the contrast dependence of stereoacuity using both horizontally and vertically oriented, isoluminant (red-green) and isochromatic (yellow-black), 0.5 c/deg Gabor patches. For comparison, contrasts were computed in multiples of detection threshold, where detection threshold was defined as the contrast required for the stimulus to be simultaneously detectable in each eye. Disparity thresholds (1/stereoacuity) for vertical chromatic Gabors were higher than those for vertical luminance Gabors by a factor of between 4 and 9 depending on contrast, and declined less steeply with contrast. Disparity thresholds for horizontal chromatic Gabors were very high (130-210 min arc) compared with horizontal luminance Gabors (by a factor of between 9 and 17) and were only measurable at contrasts above 10 times simultaneous monocular detection threshold. These results support the view that chromatic stereoscopic processing is less precise than luminance stereoscopic processing, and that there is a special deficit in the processing of disparity with horizontally oriented chromatic stimuli. The implications of these results for the role of colour vision in stereopsis are discussed. 相似文献

The human visual system requires less contrast to detect patterns oriented vertically or horizontally than those oriented obliquely. We investigated whether this orientational anisotropy persists at suprathreshold contrasts. Using a contrast-matching technique, we found that it disappears at contrasts just above threshold, given the stimulus conditions employed. These results suggest that a neural mechanism, at suprathreshold, adjusts the gain of orientational subsystems to compensate for the lower sensitivity of the visual system to oblique patterns. A similar suprathreshold effect, referred to as contrast constancy, has been observed in studies employing grating patterns varying in spatial and temporal frequency. We argue, based on previous electrophysiological findings, that this neural compensation results from antagonism between excitatory and inhibitory processes in the visual cortex. 相似文献

MCE has evolved from a laboratory tool to a clinical procedure. It would be wrong to consider it merely another tool for imaging of myocardial perfusion. As discussed, it allows physicians to bring physiology and pathophysiology to the bedside, providing a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of abnormal findings in individual patients. MCE can provide quantitative measurements that can be repeated as often as necessary in a patient. Because of its complexity, large clinical studies are necessary to define the role of MCE in the general clinical milieu. Advances in MCE continue at a very rapid pace, and its potential for the study of endothelial function, site-specific targeting, and local delivery of drugs appears promising. Its role will continue to evolve into the early part of the next century. What we learn of the myocardium can be easily applied to other organ systems accessible to ultrasound. The future of MCE appears very exciting. 相似文献

In Exp 1, 5 pigeons were trained to peck a key on multiple schedules of food reinforcement. The reinforcer rate was constant in 1 component and varied between conditions in the alternated component. In the constant component, steady-state response rate and its resistance to both prefeeding and extinction were inversely related to the reinforcer rate in the alternated component. Thus, resistance to both prefeeding and to extinction, like response rate, exhibits behavioral contrast. In Exp 2, a time-out period between schedule components eliminated contrast effects on steady-state response rate but not on resistance to extinction. The resistance-to-change results contradict expectations derived from current quantitative accounts of steady-state operant behavior and suggest instead that resistance to change depends on the contingency between component stimuli and reinforcers.

Reports results of 3 experiments with a total of 78 male Auto-Sexed King pigeons and 18 male Silver King pigeons. In Exp I positive behavioral contrast and the aversiveness of the negative stimulus varied directly with the magnitude of reinforcement. In Exp II negative simultaneous contrast was obtained in an operant analog of the discrete trials paradigm. In Exp III a reduction in the magnitude of reinforcement produced positive behavioral contrast and, concurrently, negative simultaneous contrast. The relation of behavioral and simultaneous contrast and their dependence on frustration are discussed, as well as the problem of the proper control procedures for studying behavioral contrast.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSES: New strategies have been developed to improve the sensitivity of contrast-enhanced MR imaging in quantifying disease activity in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal of the present study was to evaluate the sensitivity of T1-weighted images after injection of a triple dose of contrast material and application of a magnetization transfer (MT) pulse in the detection of enhancing lesions as compared with the conventional approach. METHODS: Monthly MR images were obtained in 13 patients with relapsing-remitting MS for a period of 3 months. The MR studies were performed on two separate occasions with single- and triple-dose contrast material. In each session, T1- and T2-weighted spin-echo images with and without the MT pulse were obtained before and after contrast administration. All images were evaluated in a blinded fashion and scored in random order and consensually by two readers. The number of total and new enhancing lesions and active images was counted. RESULTS: Eighty-six percent more enhancing lesions and 54% more new enhancing lesions were detected with triple-dose as compared with single-dose non-MT sequences, whereas single-dose MT images depicted 33% more enhancing lesions and 18% more new enhancing lesions than the single-dose non-MT images. Twenty-nine percent more lesions were detected on triple-dose non-MT images than on single-dose MT images. The combination of a triple dose of contrast material and MT did not produce any significant change in detection of enhancing lesions as compared with a triple dose of contrast without MT. CONCLUSION: The use of a triple dose of contrast material is the best approach to maximize the sensitivity of enhanced MR imaging. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Recent evidence suggests that small letter contrast sensitivity (CS) is more sensitive than visual acuity (VA) to defocus, luminance, binocular enhancement, and visual differences among pilot trainees. It would be valuable to make this test available for general use. We developed a hard copy (letter chart) version called the Small Letter Contrast Test (SLCT) and evaluated its sensitivity and reliability in comparison to standard vision tests. METHODS: The SLCT has 14 lines of letters with 10 letters per line. The letters are of constant size (20/25 or 4/5 at 4 m), but vary in contrast by line in 0.1 log steps (0.01 log units per letter). Normal room illumination is used. The SLCT was evaluated in 16 subjects under various conditions (spherical and astigmatic blur, low luminance, 2 eyes vs. 1 eye) to determine test sensitivity and reliability, and in patients with clinical conditions. Scores were compared to those obtained with standard tests of VA (Bailey-Lovie) and CS (Pelli-Robson). RESULTS: SLCT scores were similar to previous measures, and retest reliability was one line. The SLCT was more sensitive than VA to spherical and astigmatic blur, low luminance, and vision with two eyes vs. one eye. Greater sensitivity of the SLCT endured despite correction for variability. The SLCT was more sensitive than standard tests to visual loss from early cataract, keratoconus, corneal infiltrates, edema, and amblyopia. CONCLUSIONS: The SLCT is a sensitive, adjunctive test, which complements existing measures of VA. It can reveal subtle visual deficits that may be undetected by standard clinical techniques. The SLCT should prove useful for monitoring vision in refractive surgery, corneal and macular edema, optic neuritis, and for selection and evaluation of candidates for occupations requiring unique visual abilities like aviation. 相似文献
