Abstract:
Circular or Angular data occur in many fields of applied statistics. A common problem of interest in circular data is estimating a preferred direction and its corresponding distribution. This problem is complicated by the so-called wrap-around effect, which exists because there is no minimum or maximum on the circle. The usual statistics employed for linear data are inappropriate for directional data, as they do not account for the circular nature of directional data. Common choices for summarizing the preferred direction are the sample circular mean, and sample circular median. A newly propos

Thesis (Masters Diploma (Electrical Engineering)) -- Cape Technikon, Cape Town,1992<br>This thesis describes the development of a free standing, maintenance free anemometer which has no rotating parts. The principle of operation is based on the \-vind drag/force around a hollow P.V.c. pipe. The aim is to demonstrate how the strain occurring in the P.V.C. pipe, due to wind drag/force acting on it, can generate an electrical signal which can be mathematically manipulated to determine wind velocity and wind bearing.

Abstract:
In radio interferometry, observed visibilities are intrinsically sampled at some interval in time and frequency. Modern interferometers are capable of producing data at very high time and frequency resolution; practical limits on storage and computation costs require that some form of data compression be imposed. The traditional form of compression is simple averaging of the visibilities over coarser time and frequency bins. This has an undesired side effect: the resulting averaged visibilities “decorrelate”, and do so differently depending on the baseline length and averaging interval. This t

Abstract:
Smooth pursuit is the movement that occurs when the eyes meticulously follow an object in motion. While smooth pursuit can be achieved with a stationary head, it generally relies on the head following the visual target as well. During smooth pursuit, a coordinating vestibular mechanism, shared by both the head and the eyes, is used. Therefore, smooth pursuit can reveal much about where a person is looking based on only the direction of the head. To investigate the interplay between the eyes and the head, an application was made for the augmented reality head-mounted display Magic Leap. The app

Uma vez que esses tipos de dados possuem um caráter volumétrico, não é tão simples se identificar e selecionar atributos presentes em sua estrutura 3D. Além disso, a grande presença de ruídos e concavidades acentuadas nesse tipo de dado aumenta a complexidade de sua manipulação e visualização. Devido a essas características, a geometria do dado é mu

Abstract:
Collective actions of large animal groups result in elaborate behaviour, whose nature can be breathtaking in their complexity. Social organisation is the key to the origin of this behaviour and the mechanisms by which this organisation occurs are of particular interest. In this thesis, these mechanisms of social interactions and their consequences for group-level behaviour are explored. Social interactions amongst individuals are based on simple rules of attraction, alignment and orientation amongst neighbouring individuals.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação tem com objectivo analisar as determinantes do Investimento Directo Estrangeiro (IDE) em Portugal, para o período 1995-2008. O presente estudo procura testar as teorias do investimento internacional, confrontando-as com novos paradigmas: a globalização da economia mundial e a liberdade económica. Para além destas variáveis explicativas foram ainda introduzidas as hipóteses clássicas, como a dimensão do mercado, o grau de abertura, a estabilidade macro económica e a política salarial. Ao nível da metodologia o estudo visa analisar as determinantes do IDE utilizando dados em pai
