In order to understand how the algorithms underlying neural computation are implemented within any neural system, it is necessary to understand details of the anatomy, physiology and global organization of the neurons from which the system is constructed. Information is represented in neural systems by patterns of activity that vary in both their spatial extent and in the time domain. One of the great challenges to microscopists is to devise methods for imaging these patterns of activity and to correlate them with the underlying neuroanatomy and physiology. We have addressed this problem by using a combination of three dimensional reconstruction techniques, quantitative analysis and computer visualization techniques to build a probabilistic atlas of a neural map in an insect sensory system. The principal goal of this study was to derive a quantitative representation of the map, based on a uniform sample of afferents that was of sufficient size to allow statistically meaningful analyses of the relationships between structure and function.

AbstractBackground: The purpose of the following research was to find out the influence of imaginary training based on intention implementation on throw effectiveness of young basketball players, both male and female in stressogenic situations. Individual differences (action vs state orientation) between players were also measured in this research.Material/Methods: 76 players (32 females and 44 males) in the cadet category (15-16 years old) from basketball clubs of Gdansk, Gdynia and Sopot took part in this research. In the first stage all players did a throw efficiency test ERPE 05 under two conditions, and their heart rate was measured. Then players were randomly assigned to one of two groups. The first one did imaginary training based on the influence of intention implementation for 10 days, while the other did not. After 10 days ERPE 05 test under two conditions was run again.Results: Test results showed that intention implementation does not influence effectiveness improvement in stressogenic conditions as far as state-oriented players are concerned, but it does lower the physiological cost of physical effort in form of a decreased heart rate.Conclusions: This research proves that visualization training based on implementation instructions does influence young players’ physiology and significantly lowers their heart rate under stressogenic conditions. However useful, visualization techniques used in this research still need other tests and should be applied for a longer period of time to acutely show how they affect young players’ mental preparation

The Impact

Subject. This article deals with the issues related to the national economic security of the State in today's conditions. Objectives. The article aims to develop a set of special measures for additional business support to reduce the impact of restrictions imposed against the background of quarantine and the pandemic spread, and which would help prevent collapse of business entities. Methods. For the study, I used the methods of theoretical, systems, logical, and comparative analyses, and tabular and graphical visualization techniques. Results. The article proposes possible measures to support business aimed at reducing the costs of business entities due to the restrictions caused by the pandemic, that complement and explain the activities proposed by the President and Government of the Russian Federation, taking into account the regional and municipal levels. Conclusions. The uncertain current situation requires constant adjustment and adaptation of public policy in accordance with specific circumstances. Ensuring the country's economic security and sustainability associates with creation of a business organization system that connects public administration tools and business support and development opportunities under the changed environment.

Subject. This article considers the system of strategic planning documents as a scientific and practical basis for achieving the goal of improving the well-being of the population by increasing investment activity and the competitiveness of the regional economy. Objectives. The article aims to explore the possibilities and features of the application of marketing technologies in the effective management of the development of the Russian Federation constituent entities. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of general scientific and statistical research, content analysis, and data visualization techniques. Results. The article presents a brief analytical overview of strategic planning documents and analysis of the possibilities of using modern marketing tools. The article also highlights the use of marketing to improve the competitiveness of a particular area, taking into account the experience of leader regions. Conclusions. Modern strategic documents regulating the development of regions have some contradictions in terms of the characteristics of the state of the Russian Federation subjects concerning various indicators of development. The problems and practicalities of addressing them need to be more clearly identified. The results of the study can be used by regional and municipal authorities to develop plans to improve the strategic management of the areas' development.

Gpu Implementation

In this work GPU implementation of classic 3D visualization algorithms namely Marching Cubes and Raycasting has been carried for cervical vertebra using VTK libraries. A proposed framework has been introduced for efficient and duly calibrated 3D reconstruction using Dicom Affine transform and Python Mayavi framework to address the limitation of benchmark visualization techniques i.e. lack of calibration, surface reconstruction artifacts and latency.
