Reliability-based cue combination and sensory adaptation theories
Multisensory information is processed by the central nervous system to determine an accurate representation of the environment. The survival of an organism will depend on how effective this strategy is. The greatest weight is given to sensory cues that have a history of being reliable in a given environmental situation, and for many creatures, including humans and owls, the default sensory reference is vision. However, in situation where visual information is minimal or too noisy, other sensory inputs will be give greater weight. Discrepancies between two sensory inputs can also be modified to increase accuracy and with enough time, the brain will rewire the relevant connections. Sensory processing therefore depends on significant contributions from genetic determinants of nervous system function and sensory experience.
Chase strategy as a production planning approach for fluctuating demand
This paper is about Chase Strategy, which typically relates to the cycle of demand and production. Service organizations, automobile industry, and fast food industry are few of the significant arenas that usually use the chase strategy, as their focus is primarily on meeting the demand patterns, which is unstable and varies from time to time. This is beneficial to numerous organizations since it minimizes the cost of inventory. However, this unstable demand pattern also creates challenges like low employee morale, high employment and training cost.This paper is about Chase Strategy, which typically relates to the cycle of demand and production.
