Pefformance of watermarking embedding algorithms utilizing this host model is still left unexplored. The authors investigate the decoding perform-nance of Spread Spectrum (SS) embedding algorithm in the standard Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel with the host signal being modeled as AR process. The SS embedding algorithm also use linear interference cancelation in the subspace spanned by watermark pattern. They study the influence of design parameters on the decoding performance. The analytic result is verified by Monte Carlo simulation on synthesized AR process. The result may be helpful to design watermarking system for speech, biomedical and image signals.展开更多

By tuning the distance of a parameter from the Hopf bifurcation point, both implicit internal signal stochastic resonance and explicit internal signal stochastic resonance can be induced by noise. Furthermore, a switch process can also be elicited. When a periodic signal is coupled to the gene network, two interesting phenomena occur with the modulation of the frequency of the signal: the effect of noise amplifying cellular signal can be inhibited or even destroyed, and "locked" coherence resonance occurs.展开更多

We tested whether salamanders could learn to locate foraging areas by using landmarks. We trained 10 salamanders Plethodon angusticlavius to use landmarks (small rocks) to locate patches within the arena containing food (blackworms Lumbriculus variegatus). At the comers of each square testing arena were four plastic dishes, one containing blackworms and the other three empty. A rock was placed in front of the dish containing blackworms, and the location of the food-dish was randomly chosen for each training trial. A control group was also trained to feed on blackworms in the presence of a rock, but the rock was positioned randomly among the four dish locations so that the rock was not a reliable landmark for the worms. Although the length of the training period for individual salamanders varied (22-38 trainings per individual), the mean number of trainings for salamanders in the control and experimental groups was equal (30 training trials). During testing, no blackworms were present to eliminate any visual or chemical cues emanating directly from the prey. Individuals trained with the rock landmarks spent sig- nificantly more time in the area of the landmark than did control salamanders [Current Zoology 57 (4): 485-490, 2011].展开更多
