TL;DR: The number of people exposed to environmental tobacco smoke in California seems to have decreased over the same time period, where exposure is determined by the reported time spent with a smoker.
Journal ArticleDOI
A transformation for ordering multispectral data in terms of image quality with implications for noise removal
TL;DR: In this paper, a transformation known as the maximum noise fraction (MNF) transformation is presented, which always produces new components ordered by image quality, and it can be shown that this transformation is equivalent to principal components transformations when the noise variance is the same in all bands and that it reduces to a multiple linear regression when noise is in one band only.
Journal ArticleDOI
Site fidelity in predictable and unpredictable habitats
TL;DR: A general model using dynamic programming to investigate conditions under which fidelity to a previously occupied territory will be advantageous is developed, predicting that site fidelity should be inversely related to heterogeneity in territory quality and the animal's lifespan and positively related to the cost of changing territories, age and probability of mortality in the habitat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filter-Based Classification of Training Image Patterns for Spatial Simulation
TL;DR: A multi-point filtersim algorithm is proposed that classifies structural patterns using selected filter statistics that represent directional mean, gradient, and curvature properties in multiple-point simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Real-time measurement of outdoor tobacco smoke particles.
TL;DR: It is possible for OTS to present a nuisance or hazard under certain conditions of wind and smoker proximity, and to explore the determinants of time-varying OTS levels, including the effects of source proximity and wind.
