"Its elements might include online voting, e-dialogue between representatives and those represented, increased interconnectedness between the functions of representation, scrutiny and legislation, multiple concepts of what is a constituency, flexibility about what is debated when and how, and a much more intense pace for invention and adaptation".
In one benefit function formulation value is a sum over species-specific values, and species-specific value is an increasing function of representation.
Because of this, the visual cortices of blind people can still carry out the cognitive functions of creating representations of the physical world but base these representations on input from another sense namely, touch.
The effects of slope regulation of the functions for representation of thermophysical and mechanical properties on thermal deformation of mirrors are discussed to meet the requirement of optimum design and manufacture of FGM mirrors for the future.
In summary, disambiguating the initial abstraction of an option's value from the associated cognitive processes that arise from the recognition that an option is valuable (e.g., attention, arousal, motivation) is paramount to advancing our understanding of the specialized functions of reward representations in different brain areas.
The selected basis is formed by two sets of basis functions for representation of the transients excited by localized faults and other signal components of interest, respectively.
The Lp-Fourier algebra ALp G) is defined to be the set of matrix coefficient functions of Lp-representations.
The reader is referred to that report for a brief revision of earlier work on iterative functions for representation of sequence succession.
Joffe also identified the status quo function of social representations which enable the perpetuation of history through which society continuously make the world seem more familiar and manageable [ 36].
Further studies will be needed to ascertain the exact nature and function of the representations in the parahippocampal gyrus during navigation and, indeed, in other neocortical areas such as the prefrontal and parietal cortices, which are also known to be involved in navigation [38] but were outside of the scanning coverage of this study.
