English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Scientific Research Methods
CONT

... the question "what proportion of positive results is truly positive?" essentially depends on the proportion of true and false hypotheses tested within a given field of knowledge-or the a priori plausibility. This analysis is important for our understanding of the limitations inherent to scientific research, especially with respect to the priors(initial probabilities) of a given study.

CONT

Acceleration of ions to a constant energy for TOFMS [time-of-flight mass spectrometry] is achieved by [the] application of an electrostatic field over a known distance(from an ion's initial position to the exit of the acceleration region). By this method, all ions starting from that point, regardless of m/z [mass-to-charge ratio], are sent into the mass-separation region(the flight tube) with the same nominal boost in energy.

For work in the field, the main responsibility of the cadaver dog handler is to work under the direction of the requesting agency. However, the handler must evaluate the circumstances surrounding a case and gather the necessary information while combining it with their specific training to define the search area and formulate an initial action/search plan to ensure that the correct strategies are used to give the cadaver dog the best opportunity to locate the odor of human remains.

Subject field(s)
  • Spacecraft
CONT

A potential future Mars sample caching mission would acquire surface core samples with a rover and then store the samples in a canister that could be returned to Earth. The samples would likely be stored in individual sample tubes which are sealed. Significant care would be required to minimize contamination of the samples by Earth-source contaminants or by cross-contamination with material from other Mars sampling locations. Additionally, the system of sampling tool, sampling tool deployment device, and sample handling and encapsulation system would need to have minimal mass in order to fit on a small caching rover such as a MER-class rover. Past solutions have been problematic for various reasons including total system mass, sample contamination, or robustness. This problem applies to various potential future Mars Sample Return (MSR) mission architectures for returning samples from Mars to Earth including 1) a sample caching missionfollowed by a sample return mission where the caching mission rover would acquire and cache samples and a later sample return mission would have a fetch rover that retrieves the sample cache and return it to the landers Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) for return to Earth, 2) an Astrobiology Field Laboratory mission with caching which would provide the caching mission function while also including in-situ sample analysis, and 3) a combined sampling and return mission which would combine the sample caching and return to Earth functions.

After its initial construction, Rocky 7 was used for desert field tests in 1996 and 1997. Following that, it was used for several years of algorithm development and testing, including autonomous rock grasping, and wheel-terrain contact estimation techniques. From 2001 onward, it has been a test bed for CLARAty software development. More recently it has been considered a likely candidate for "fetch" rover studies for Mars Sample Return technology development.

Deux rescapés sur Mars. Les deux rovers existaient depuis longtemps dans les cartons de la NASA et leur histoire est déjà quelque peu mouvementée. Un exemplaire très similaire aux rovers actuels devait initialement partir vers la planète rouge en 2001 pour arpenter sa surface et commencer une collecte d'échantillons de roches et de sols. Un autre robot du même gabarit aurait du venir le rejoindre en 2003 pour continuer le travail. La précieuse récolte aurait ensuite été mise à l'abri en attendant qu'un troisième robot vienne la récupérer en 2005 pour la placer dans une fusée qui aurait finalement pris la direction de la Terre.

DEF

A mathematical construction consisting of a system of entities, called cells, whose temporal evolution is governed by a collection of rules, so that its behavior over time may appear highly complex or chaotic.

CONT

One way of coming to grips with the properties of complex systems is through a field of mathematics devoted to the study of so-called cellular automata. The best way of explaining its style of analysis is by example. Imagine a long row of boxes-some black, some white-arranged to form some initial pattern, a starting stage. The row of boxes is to give rise to a second row, just below the first. The way that takes place in a cellular automaton is that each box in the first row is subject to a set of reproduction rules.

A race formation where all participants start at the same time.

CONT

(Cross-country ski) racing is usually done over 2 to 50 kilometer(1 to 31 mile) courses... On mass starts, it is extremely difficult to make progress because after the initial start on an open field or lake, all the racers descend upon a single track. For this reason, one must sprint at the beginning to reduce the number of persons to be passed.

CONT

... you can see one advantage of a mass start. The recorders know that everyone started at "Zero" minutes, and actually, therefore, the racer’s finishing time is his elapsed race time.

Laser Position Measurement. A commercially available position measuring device, Lasernet, was donated by the Namco Controls Corporation. A single narrow-beam laser is continuously swept across the field at a fixed height. A reflector of known geometry on the vehicle reflects the beam back to the device, which reports the initial angle, in the local geographic frame, at which a reflection is detected and the angular width over which the reflection is continuously detected. Knowing the geometry of the reflector, which should be independent of the heading of the aircraft, is sufficient to determine the vehicle's two-dimensional position in the local geographic frame.

[Organized Rescue. ] The key responsibilities of the First Party Leader are : Performing the role of Field Leader until relieved. Ensuring the safety of all personnel and leading the first party to the accident site. Establishing a staging area if required. Establishing a safe access route to the scene. Establishing point of entry, last seen point, and likely burial areas(with witness if possible). Establishing an escape route and posting a guard if required. Conducting a rapid initial search of likely burial areas(hasty search). Ensuring good communications at the scene and arranging for radio relay if required. Determining what rescue actions may have already been carried out and what are priorities... Ensuring rapid effective searching of the most likely burial areas is carried out by the most efficient means(transceivers, random probing). Communicating with Base Rescue Coordinator to ensure accuracy of accident particulars and appropriate further resources. Briefing subsequent Party Leaders and/or Field Rescue Leader. Keeping or at least attempting to keep a detail record of events before additional help arrives. The first party leader is an important, and pressured job. After ensuring site safety, the next priority of first party leader is the recovery of victims. In a small group, the leader may be as involved in searching as the team members...
