Abstract: In a method of testing a subject's perception of successively presented visual stimuli, a predetermined preliminary response time window is used at the beginning of the test to preliminarily classify the visual stimuli as "seen" or "not seen" depending on whether or not a response is received from the subject within the preliminary response time window. To permit reclassification of the visual stimuli at a later stage, the time of reception of every response, whether outside or within the preliminary response time windows, is stored. When an appropriate number of stimuli have been presented, a subject-adapted response time window is determined on the basis of the stored times of reception of the responses. This subject-adapted response time window is used for reclassifying the preliminarily classified stimuli. Moreover, the frequency of false positive responses can be determined on the basis of the number of responses received outside the preliminary response time window and/or the subject-adapted response time window. An apparatus for carrying out the testing includes a control unit operating according to the method.

Abstract: A system controls a plant process which includes manipulated variables (e.g. input states) and control variables (e.g. output states). The system includes sensor circuitry for providing measures of the control variables and a memory for storing a correction time constant and upper and lower limits for at least one control variable. The upper and lower limits are separated by a band of values within which the one control variable is considered to be acceptable. A processor includes data describing a process model which relates costs of manipulated variables to control variables and, upon solution, further provides predicted values for the one control variable. Logic within the processor is responsive to a measured value function of the one control variable being outside the band of values, to determine minimum cost manipulated variables which result in a return of the predicted value of the one control variable to within the acceptable band of values. Control instrumentalities within the plant are operative to alter the manipulated variables (and input states) in accordance with signals from the processor.
