Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have garnered widespread attention in reconnaissance and search operations due to their low cost and high flexibility. However, when multiple UAVs (multi-UAV) collaborate on these tasks, a limited communication range c...

Background: Episodic memory (EM) is particularly sensitive to pathological conditions and aging. In a neurocognitive context, the paired-associate learning (PAL) paradigm, which requires participants to learn and recall associations between stimuli,...

Background and objectives: Episodic specific induction (ESI) is a manipulation shown to enhance episodic memory function. Episodic specificity induction involves thoroughly unpacking a recently encoded memory, with this enhanced retrieval-induced pro...
