Observations of temporal overlap of niche occupation among Late Cretaceous marine amniotes suggest that the rise and diversification of mosasauroid squamates might have been influenced by competition with or disappearance of some plesiosaur taxa.We discuss that hypothesis through comparisons of the Therapuetic Skin rates of morphological evolution
Intuitive thinking predicts false memory formation due to a decrease in inhibitory efficiency
False memory formation is usually studied using the Deese-Roediger-McDermott Trimmer Accessories paradigm (DRM), in which individuals incorrectly remember words that were not originally presented.In this paper, we systematically investigated how two modes of thinking (analytical vs.intuitive) can influence the tendency to create false memories.The

Design and Implementation of a Walking Stick Aid for Visually Challenged People
Visually challenged people (VCPs) face many difficulties in their routine life.Usually, in many cases, they need to depend upon others, which makes them unconfident in an unfamiliar environment.Thus, in this paper, we present an aid that helps in detecting obstacles and water puddles in their way.This system comprises a walking stick and Android-ba
