The controversial question of whether machines may ever be conscious must be based on a careful consideration of how consciousness arises in the only physical system that undoubtedly possesses it: the human brain. We suggest that the word "consciousn...

The cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme superfamily is involved in phase I metabolism which chemically modifies a variety of substrates via oxidative reactions to make them more water-soluble and easier to eliminate. Inhibition of these enzymes leads to und...
Motion models have been proved to be a crucial part in the visual tracking process. In recent trackers, particle filter and sliding windows-based motion models have been widely used. Treating motion models as a sequence prediction problem, we can est...
