Pattern Recognition

In Antigone, Antigone’s idea of a good life revolved around honor. She chose to honor Polynices instead of living her life. Creon chose that public recognition was more important than his family. Everybody has a different view on the good life. Some people’s idea of the good life is a financially prosperous life, and they believe that happiness lies in the possession of wealth. The idea that worldly success…

Desjardins and Fernald (2010) wanted to discover whether fighting an opponent is similar to fighting a mirror image. These male fish are territorial and tend to engage in fighting when they encounter another size-matched male. Thus, Desjardins and Fernald (2010) measured differences in behavioral, hormonal and brain activity between the different conditions. They also measure the immediate early genes such as the egr-1 and c-fos in four brain regions: dorsomedial telencephalon (amygdala),…

This must start with a definition for inclusion. This definition must be built upon the principles of recognition, mutual understanding, standpoint plurality, mutual enabling, trust and integrity. This will allow for the integration of different and multiple voices into the organizational discourse. Management and personnel have to define a vision for inclusion…

We aspire to omnipotence. We imagine we have the capacity to know, without limits, doubt, reservation. We hope to create boundaries around knowing and to breed from that truths, altogether universal and timeless. And so we do research, so that we may discover, uncover and recover what has eluded, but so much escapes us still. We see shadows of truths and hear echoes of history and it baits us into the pursuit of the absolute: the perfectly symmetrical ordered reality we see glimpses of.…

speaking. Recognizing musical patterns is also an essential part of music education. Recognizing two eighth notes followed by three quarter notes is like learning to read a word in english. You do not learn by building it one letter at a time, you learn by seeing the word and recognizing what how the letter sounds behave in various contexts. Music uses the pattern recognition as well. Gordon says it best when he notes that “Emphasis on tonal patterns and rhythm patterns rather than individual…

other for a lot of things. In high school, many families mirrored what my family looked like. It was not until I came to college that I really understood how different people’s family units look like. This sample was more realistic of the family patterns across the United States. Families come in all shapes and forms but they provide, or aim to provide, a healthy and safe environment. The most conventional approach to defining a family is the substantive definition, which focuses on blood and…

The rods and cones are two types of photoreceptors in the human retina. The retina is a tissue lining inside of the eye that absorbs light, processes images, and sends visual information to the brain. There are millions of receptor cells in the retina that control the sensitivity to light. The rods and cones are two types of receptors that are found in the retina. They both play an important significant to the luminosity humans use to see. When light is passed through the eye, rods and cones are…

The progress of nanotechnology has encouraged scientists to continuously pursue new electrode materials for constructing an enhanced electrochemical platform for sensing. In this study, hydrothermally-assisted reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) was synthesized using an environment friendly reducing agent in optimum time to easily exfoliate coating solution and substitute on the microelectrode. Series connected distributed sensing electrodes were fabricated and patterned with TRGO added platinum…

erroneously regarded as intuitively obvious. Furthermore, many researchers may have found more showy types of animal coloration, for example, aposematism, mimicry and sexual ornamentation, more exciting than the often (but not always) duller colours and patterns used for camouflage. Thus, until recently, the study of natural camouflage has progressed slowly; little had changed in our understanding of how camouflage works since the landmark book of Hugh Cott in 1940. Therefore, many of the…

several older versions of the theory came to light. Since negative emotions like fear, disgust, and anger are also reactions to what violates our mental patterns and expectations the mere perception of incongruity is not sufficient for humour. Other aesthetic categories, too, involve a non-humorous enjoyment of some violation of our mental patterns and expectations: the grotesque, the macabre, the horrible, the bizarre, and the fantastic. So, although the Incongruity Theory freed humour from the…
