    Terrain Contour Matching (TERCOM) TERCOM is an algorithm that analyses the mean absolute distance by matching the distance between the map depth and the measured depth, as explained by (Carreno, 2010). With TERCOM, the measurements from a certain profile along the trajectory are processed in batch, but it may also be run recursively. The method indirectly assumes constant position offsets from the INS position each time it is started. Point Mass Filter (PMF) PMF is a calculation that determines the position probability density function (PDF), as said by (N. Bergman, 1999). The point mass filter estimator the priori position distributions together with the error models of the depth measurements and the map to produce a posteriori probability…

    as numeracy. Age. Older individuals don’t understand risk information as well, both overestimate and underestimate probabilities (Fuller, Dudley, & Blacktop, 2001), worse risk comprehension than younger individuals (Fausset & Rogers, 2012). Much of the literature supports the idea that decision making effectiveness…

    After 30 s, the search mission is commenced. The updated probability map is transmitted to the service vehicles every 5 s by the host computer. The final configuration of planar position and the trajectories of all service vehicles for different time steps, 40 s, 90 s, 180 s are shown in Figure 6-3.1-1-c. The distribution density function based on the most updated probability maps are also shown in the figures. The color intensity is proportional to the value of distribution density function at…

    Fundamental Theorem of Calculus The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus evaluate an antiderivative at the upper and lower limits of integration and take the difference. This theorem is separated into two parts. The first part is called the first fundamental theorem of calculus and states that one of the antiderivatives of some function may be obtained as the integral of the function with a variable bound of integration. The second part of the theorem, called the second fundamental theorem of…

    John Gutmann was one of America’s most distinctive photographers. Gutmann was born in Germany where he became an artist. He later fled Germany due to the Nazi’s because he was a Jew. Gutmann moved to San Francisco and re-established himself as a photojournalist captivating the lives of Americans. He mainly took photographs of people who were imperfect like himself because of his Jewish nationality. Gutmann targeted the poor, circus folk, the gay community and the rich. Two of Gutmann’s works are…

    The fundamental theorem of Calculus: The fundamental theorem of calculus asserts the interrelated properties of integration and differentiation. It says that a function when differentiated, can be brought back by integrating (anti-derivative) or a function when integrated, can be brought back by differentiation. First theorem: Let f be a function that is integrable on [a,x] for each x in [a,b], then let c be such that a≤c≤b and define a new function A as follows, A(x)=∫_c^x▒f(x)dt, if a≤x≤b.…

    the equation & based off what I did I'm assuming that his possible answer came out not to be an real answer to his problem & that is mainly because the equation itself is not true when eighty one is inserted for the letter x in the default problem. Okay so basically for this particular problem we have to think of f of x as basically the y value if that makes sense. So this would mean that if you use addition for the number two & + to the letter y we will see the function go up by two. The…

    Story evaluation The story that will be evaluated is one entitled “Man was paid $2 500 to conceive a child with his neighbor’s beauty queen wife, but failed after 3 months trying”. Firstly, there is doubt in the story due to the source which is responsible for sharing the news. The source is a website known as 9GAG, which does not have any reputable evaluation system, and anyone is free to post a story he or she wants. However, judging by the comments on the post, many individuals assume the…

    Intervention Description Joint Protection (JP) is a strategy for performing activities to minimise the amount of strain and pain throughout the joints being used (Goodacre & McArthur, 2013). Common barriers clients face when applying JP strategies are; information memorisation, fear of appearing disabled and the unwillingness to change lifelong habits. Studies indicate that addressing these barriers is imperative for increasing the effectiveness of JP (Hammond et al, 1999) (Niedermann et al,…
