Abstract (sommario):
Code smells are defined as poor implementation and coding practices, and as a result decrease the overall quality of a source code. A number of code smell detection tools are available to automatically detect poor implementation choices, i.e., code smells. The detection of code smells is essential in order to improve the quality of the source code. This report aims to evaluate the accuracy and quality of seven different open-source code smell detection tools, with the purpose of establishing their level of trustworthiness.To assess the trustworthiness of a tool, we utilize a controlled experim

This collection of poems and prose poems is a record of my life, from growing up in the small town of Bindura in Zimbabwe to landing in the small town of Grahamstown in South Africa. It is a story of dislocation: physical, emotional, and political. It is a story about borders and boundaries; although not rich, I was raised among the rich; although not white, I spent a considerable part of my childhood in white spaces.

This study is focused on the impact of smell on the memory in the context of games. The aim is to understand what the effects of smell on human’s memorization and learning process are. The research topic is explored through creating a memory game designed specifically for the study: “Guess My Face”. In this game, the players have to memorize pictures of faces parts using their specific scents. The game’s goal is to manage to compose a random face provided by the game with the face parts that the players learned. However, the difficulty lies in the fact that the players do not see the face par

The dominance of sight in built environmental design and management is well documented with smell overlooked by built environment professionals, considered of primarily negative influence upon experience and perception. However odour has special characteristics, retained in memory longer than visual images, and can transport people back through space and time through recollection and association. As a result, it has an important role to play in urban place experience. Few dedicated studies have examined the role of smell in environmental experience and perception.

Abstract (sommario):
Insects rely heavily on olfaction to locate food, find mates and sense danger. Odorant stimuli in their natural environment often consist of mixtures of several chemical compounds, and stimulus concentration in air fluctuates rapidly and unpredictably. Despite the complex nature of natural odorant stimuli, odor identity can be encoded by insects' olfactory systems very quickly. How this can be achieved is still an open area of study. Here, I ask two specific questions: 1. Are the olfactory responses to mixture stimuli qualitatively different from those to pure chemical compounds and are such d

The sense of smell is a primal sense for humans as well as animals.In everyday life the smells encountered are composed of dozens, even hundreds of odors; few arise from a single odorant. Enormous numbers of odors occur due to the vast variation in the concentration, size and structure of odorant molecules that makes olfaction differ from simpler visual or auditory dimensions. Accordingly, little is known about the ways in which changes in molecular structure and concentration of individual odorants change odor quality.

Abstract (sommario):
Spanish<br>Ph.D.<br>This doctoral dissertation examines the presence and function of the sense of smell in Early Modern Spanish literature. It studies the use of the olfactory in key works of the period and analyzes how each one reflects a certain contemporary aspect of Spanish culture and society. Though its role in literature has not been considered as widely as that of the other senses, smell's indubitable presence in the works and its unique qualities allow for a singular approach to the texts in question as they serve to preserve the beliefs, themes and trends of Renaissance and Golden Ag

Abstract (sommario):
Human experiences of objects and events are formed through the perception and integration of information coming from different sensory modalities. Importantly, research has shown that even information not directly related to the object itself, such as that produced by the contest where the stimulus is presented, can contribute to modulate its mental representation. This might be the case, for example, of the interaction between the evaluation of a given food and the characteristics of the plate where it is served. Despite of these observations, the presence of multisensory interactions in tast

Legha, Prem. "Molecular structure and odor mixture perception." Thesis, View thesis, 2004. http://handle.uws.edu.au:8081/1959.7/549.

Abstract (sommario):
The sense of smell is a primal sense for humans as well as animals.In everyday life the smells encountered are composed of dozens, even hundreds of odors; few arise from a single odorant. Enormous numbers of odors occur due to the vast variation in the concentration, size and structure of odorant molecules that makes olfaction differ from simpler visual or auditory dimensions. Accordingly, little is known about the ways in which changes in molecular structure and concentration of individual odorants change odor quality. Also, currently not much is understood about synergism/antagonism, how one

Abstract (sommario):
In two parts, this thesis examined the perception of odour mixtures by humans. Several experiments were carried out and results shown. Part 1 established that peripheral interaction in the form of competition for transduction pathway resources is not of primary importance in determining the perceptual characteristics of odour mixtures. Other peripheral mechanisms, central factors and limitations in human cognitive processing would also appear to play an important role.Taking into account the temporal processing results found in Part 1, Part 2 sought to establish the capacity of humans to analy

Abstract (sommario):
In this paper, I will cover the process of connecting my honors thesis film, Lavanda, with the five senses. I will mainly focus on how the sense of smell can be represented in film along with visual and aural elements. Also, I will present the challenges that arouse while trying to represent taste and touch. Ultimately, I will evaluate the representation of each sense in Lavanda and how a film has the potential to encourage the use of other senses besides seeing and hearing while watching a film.

Abstract (sommario):
The moments that follow a perceptual decision can be as critical as the ones leading up to it. This thesis examines rapid olfactory decisions in mice and rapid changes of mind following an initial decision in humans. To study olfactory decisions, we trained mice to discriminate different odor concentrations in a novel head-fixed paradigm. Odor concentration is an important cue for localizing odor sources, from searching for food and mates to avoiding predators. However, little is known about how olfactory systems encode odor concentration. We found that mice could discriminate the different od
