The present study investigates whether updating an important function of executive control can be driven by unconscious reward cues. Participants had to memorize several numbers and update those numbers independently according to a sequence of arithmetic operations. At the beginning of each trial, a reward (1 euro or 5 cents) was presented, either subliminally or supraliminally. Participants could earn the reward if they found the correct response on the updating task. Results showed better performance when a high (conscious or unconscious) reward was at stake compared to a low reward. This suggests that subliminal information can influence a component process of executive control traditionally thought to require consciousness.

AbstractIn a real world situation, whenever ambiguity exists in the modeling of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IFNs), interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IVIFNs) are often used in order to represent a range of IFNs unstable from the most pessimistic evaluation to the most optimistic one. IVIFNs are a construction which helps us to avoid such a prohibitive complexity. This paper is focused on two types of arithmetic operations on interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (IVIFNs) to solve the interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy multi-objective linear programming problem with pentagonal intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (PIFNs) by assuming differentαandβcut values in a comparative manner. The objective functions involved in the problem are ranked by the ratio ranking method and the problem is solved by the preemptive optimization method. An illustrative example with MATLAB outputs is presented in order to clarify the potential approach.

This paper proposes a novel method called arithmetic operations to analyze and process the generated voltage-signal from the single pair-pole magnetic encoder. Dual orthogonal voltage-signals are generated by two vertical hall sensors which are placed in the bottom of a columned magnet. When signals pass A/D converter, the quadrant determination, arithmetic operations and nonlinear correction in FPGA chip are performed before the values of rotational angle are displayed on the LED. This paper also designs and implements the single pair-pole magnetic encoder which has advantages such as high-speed, high-resolution and high-accuracy in the area of angle measurement.

This article of the topic is due to the fact that accounting for the cost and financial management system of the enterprise is currently of particular importance and is carried out in a strict manner. When conducting accounting, the following procedures are used: search for compliance of the company's data on accounting and the regulatory framework; study of documentation; finding and forming errors during the audit. Such meth-ods are solved by the rules: evaluation of arithmetic operations; monitoring of inventory; analysis of cash flow in the enterprise; notification of certain persons about the completed economic and accounting operations; interviewing employees orally; assessment of cash flow according to documents; implementation of economic analysis aimed at studying the movement of funds of the enterprise.
