Reinforcement of perceptual inference: reward and punishment alter conscious visual perception during binocular rivalry

Perception is an inferential process, which becomes immediately evident when sensory information is conflicting or ambiguous and thus allows for more than one perceptual interpretation.Thinking the idea of perception as inference through to the end results in a blurring of boundaries between perception and action selection, as perceptual inference

Investigation of U(VI) biosorption dynamic in fixed bed column: calculation of mass transfer resistances and identification of rate-controlling step

In the present research, mass transfer resistances of various steps of uranium biosorption using Pseudomonas putida @ Chitosan biosorbent in a fixed bed column were calculated.The description process dynamic parameters using dimensionless numbers showed that the Biot number was greater than 30 in all experiments which confirms the high mass face wa
