Abstract. In spite of significant progress in the development of new devices for magnetic measurements, mathematical and computational technologies for data processing and means of communication, the quality of magnetic data accessible through the data centres (for example, World Data Centres or INTERMAGNET) still largely depends on the actual conditions in which observation of the Earth's magnetic field is performed at observatories. Processing of raw data of magnetic measurements by observatory staff plays an important role. It includes effective identification of noise and elimination of its influence on final data. In this paper, on the basis of the experience gained during long-term magnetic monitoring carried out at the observatories of IKIR FEB RAS (Russia) and CSIR-NGRI (India), we present a review of methods commonly encountered in actual practice for noise identification and the possibility of reducing noise influence.
Excerpted from Filosofskie problemy v sovetskoy psikhologii [ Philosophical problems in Soviet psychology]. Moscow: Nauka, 1972. Pp. 237-245 E. A. Budilova THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PSYCHOLOGY AND PHYSIOLOGYA major theoretical problem for Soviety psychophysiologists, many of whom base their work on Pavlovian research and theory, is the integration of Pavlovian doctrine into contemporary knowledge from neurophysiology and the burgeoning theoretical work on cybernetics. Neither modern electrophysiological techniques nor cybernetic ideas were available to Pavlov.Budilova considers this problem and the larger one of incorporating Pavlovian theory into (or at least reconciling i t with) other developments in psychology. The rich opportunity for differences of opinion this enterprise provides is amply clear, both from this excerpt and from the articles by Asratyan and Voronin presented later in this issue.. . . In the historical development of Soviet psychology, the forging of a n alliance with Pavlovian physiology was by no means simple and direct. A number of factors contributed t o this alliance, the most decisive of which were the development of psychological theory itself and the solution of some of the philosophical problems posed by psychology. Hence the first overtures of psychology to Pavlovian theory in the '20s brought about no notable changes, either theoretically or practically, in experimental psychological research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
