DYNAMIC APPROACH [25 records]

Record 1 2024-09-13

English

Subject field(s)
  • Clinical Psychology
CONT

Short-term dynamic psychotherapy applies psychoanalytic principles to define and understand the dynamics and problems that clients bring to the therapy session. The aim of this approach is to uncover the feelings or thoughts that interfere with a client's relationships, communication, and daily functioning. To be effective, the therapist must work quickly to engage the client in the therapeutic process, uncovering defenses and gaining the trust of the client in a brief time.

Precision nutrition(PN) is an approach to developing comprehensive and dynamic nutritional recommendations based on individual variables, including genetics, microbiome, metabolic profile, health status, physical activity, dietary pattern, food environment as well as socioeconomic and psychosocial characteristics. PN can help answer the question "What should I eat to be healthy?", recognizing that what is healthful for one individual may not be the same for another, and understanding that health and responses to diet change over time.

Division of the total range of anomaly values(known also as the dynamic range) into a number of intervals can be done in different ways, which can significantly affect the appearance of the resulting map. The simplest approach is to divide the range into equal intervals. This is called linear equalization, and it can result in an effective image, particularly when the populations of grid cells within intervals are similar.

CONT

Multi-Gigabit Data Rate Approach-... In order to detect the 2 Gbps PQM data stream, two optical receivers, each capable of detecting a 1 Gbps PDBM optical pulse train, are required. Very sensitive avalanche photodiodes with rise times less than 250 ps have developed and are presently being evaluated. Similar devices with slightly longer rise times have been evaluated 1 Gbps and were found to have a sensitivity comparable to the developed 1 Gbps Dynamic Crossed Field Photomultiplier Tubes(DCFP) with a photocathode quantum efficiency of 20%. It is expected that the new high speed devices will have comparable sensitivity.

On amis au point et l'on évalue en ce moment des photodiodes à avalanche très sensibles à temps de montée inférieurs à 250 ps. Des dispositifs similaires avec temps de montée légèrement plus élevés ont été évalués et l'on a constaté qu'ils étaient d'une sensibilité comparable à celle des tubes photomultiplicateurs dynamiques à champs croisés de 1 Gbit/s (DCFP) mis au point, avec un rendement quantique de photocathode de 20%.

Subject field(s)
  • Search and Rescue (Aircraft)
CONT

We introduce a simple approach to finding approximate solutions to combinatorial problems. This approach called the Radial Search(RS) uses the concept of rings which define the location and size of search areas around current good solutions. It iteratively modifies the radii of these rings, and generates new centres, in order to cover the search space. A concentration step corresponds to choosing a solution as the centre of a new ring. An expansion step corresponds to the exploration around a given centre by increasing and reducing the radius of the ring until a better solution than the centre is found. This dynamic process of concentration and expansion of the search is repeated until a stopping condition is met.

Impact Therapy is an approach to counseling that shows respect for the way clients learn, change, and develop. The emphasis is on making counseling clear, concrete and thought-provoking, rather than vague, abstract, and emotional. Impact Therapy is a multi-sensory approach which recognizes that change or impact comes from not only verbal, but also visual and kinesthetic exchanges.

Tree structures such as the region quadtree... enable the dynamic and hierarchical partitioning of a(raster) data space as opposed to the static partitioning provided by the previous concepts. Most documented applications of region quadtrees on raster data(e. g.(Worboys, 1995),(Samet, 1990)) use the quadtree structure for encoding the raster data down to the level of individual raster cells or pixels. In this approach simple attribute values(e. g. colour values) are assigned to individual leaf nodes. Instead of simple values, leaf nodes could also hold pointers to more complex information, such as binary data strings. This approach allows the region quadtree to be used as the basis for a dynamic variable-size tiling approach. The criteria determining the depth of the quadtree could either be the spatial dimensions of the smallest tile or the maximum amount of data to be stored for an individual tile.

This new approach to autonomous control is based on the fact that non-linear dynamic systems can be controlled using analytically derived functions. The method hinges on defining an artificial potential field which represents the environment in which the vehicle is to manoeuvre. The potential field is configured to have a global minimum at the desired terminal state of the vehicle and has region of high potential which represents path constraints. This property enables active collision avoidance. Vehicle controls are then chosen such that the rate of descent of the potential field along the vehicle trajectory is always rendered negative definite. According to Lyapunov's theorem, this ensures that the vehicle converges to the desired terminal state without violating pre-defined path constraints.

OBS

artificial potential field; APF: term and abbreviation officially approved by the International Space Station official approval Group (ISSOAG).

Ce champ potentiel est configuré selon un minimum global à l'état final souhaité du véhicule et comporte des régions à potentiel élevé qui représentent les contraintes de trajectoire. Cette configuration permet une prévention anti-collision active. Les commandes du véhicule sont ensuite sélectionnées de sorte que la vitesse de baisse du champ potentiel le long de la trajectoire du véhicule soit négative et définie. Selon le théorème de Lyapounov, cette méthode assure que le véhicule converge bien vers l'état final souhaité en respectant les contraintes de trajectoire prédéfinies [...]
