Visual perceptual limitations on letter position uncertainty in reading
2012
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
Perceptual and psychophysical evidence indicates a decay of letter position encoding as a function of the eccentricity of letters (crowding); this factor may account for some of the differences in the ...
Chinese complicates matters by placing weak demands on serial order of graph-to-speech mapping and strong demands on spatial relations. ...
For example, both the SOLAR model offered by Davis (1999) and the recent Spatial Coding model (Davis 2010) adopt the idea of spatial coding and encode relative letter position by measures of relative ...

Adversarial patrolling with spatially uncertain alarm signals
2017
Artificial Intelligence
We show that finding the optimal strategy is FNP-hard even in tree graphs and APX-hard in arbitrary graphs. ...
In the present paper, we focus on spatially uncertain alarm signals. That is, the alarm system is able to detect an attack but it is uncertain on the exact position where the attack is taking place. ...
Alarm systems are in practice affected by detection uncertainty, e.g., missed detections and false positives, and localization (a.k.a. spatial) uncertainty, e.g., the alarm system is uncertain about the ...
