On several key issues we agree with the commentators. Perhaps most importantly, everyone seems to agree that psychology has an important role to play in building better models of human vision, and (most) everyone agrees (including us) that deep neural networks (DNNs) will play an important role in modelling human vision going forward. But there are also disagreements about what models are for, how DNN–human correspondences should be evaluated, the value of alternative modelling approaches, and impact of marketing hype in the literature. In our view, these latter issues are contributing to many unjustified claims regarding DNN–human correspondences in vision and other domains of cognition. We explore all these issues in this response.

Background
Olfaction has recently found clinical value in prediction, discrimination and prognosis of some neurodegenerative disorders. However, data originating from standard tests on olfactory dysfunction in Huntington's disease are limited to odour identification, which is only one domain of olfactory perceptual space.
MethodTwenty-five patients and 25 age- and gender-matched controls were evaluated by the Sniffin’ Sticks test in three domains of odour threshold, odour discrimination, odour identification and the sum score of them. Patients’ motor function was assessed based on the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale.
ResultsCompared with controls, patients’ scores of all olfactory domains and their sum were significantly lower. Besides, our patients’ odour threshold and odour discrimination impairments were more frequently impaired than odour identification impairment (86 per cent and 81 per cent vs 34 per cent, respectively).
ConclusionOlfactory impairment is a common finding in patients with Huntington's disease; it is not limited to odour identification but is more pronounced in odour discrimination and odour threshold.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have had extraordinary successes in classifying photographic images of objects and are often described as the best models of biological vision. This conclusion is largely based on three sets of findings: (1) DNNs are more accurate than any other model in classifying images taken from various datasets, (2) DNNs do the best job in predicting the pattern of human errors in classifying objects taken from various behavioral datasets, and (3) DNNs do the best job in predicting brain signals in response to images taken from various brain datasets (e.g., single cell responses or fMRI data). However, these behavioral and brain datasets do not test hypotheses regarding what features are contributing to good predictions and we show that the predictions may be mediated by DNNs that share little overlap with biological vision. More problematically, we show that DNNs account for almost no results from psychological research. This contradicts the common claim that DNNs are good, let alone the best, models of human object recognition. We argue that theorists interested in developing biologically plausible models of human vision need to direct their attention to explaining psychological findings. More generally, theorists need to build models that explain the results of experiments that manipulate independent variables designed to test hypotheses rather than compete on making the best predictions. We conclude by briefly summarizing various promising modeling approaches that focus on psychological data.

Objective
This study aimed to determine the predictors of olfactory improvement after endoscopic sinus surgery among patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
MethodThis prospective cohort study included patients admitted to a university hospital between 2006 and 2012. Assessment using odour identification testing, a sinonasal symptom questionnaire, the Rhinosinusitis Disability Index and mucus biomarker levels was performed at various time points. Correlation of variables with identification score differences at six post-operative time points and at baseline was performed, followed by multiple linear regression to determine significant predictors at each of the six post-operative time points.
ResultsBaseline absence of acute sinusitis, elevated serpin F2 and anterior rhinorrhoea predict early olfactory improvement, whereas baseline allergic rhinitis predicts late olfactory improvement. Baseline odour identification score was the strongest predictor across all time points.
ConclusionPatients with chronic rhinosinusitis and nasal polyps with worse disease or baseline olfactory function may benefit more from endoscopic sinus surgery in terms of olfactory improvement.

Even at small angles of incidence, the flow separates from the sharp leading edges of a slender wing. These flow separations usually lead to the formation of two free vortex layers, joined to the leading edges of the wing and rolling up to form spiral-shaped vortex sheets above the upper surface of the wing. This vortex formation is illustrated schematically in Fig. 1. The streamlines on the vortex sheet follow helical paths. Smoke injected near the wing apex for flow visualisation remains concentrated close to the axis of the core of the vortex sheet.

Objectives: Constructive Technology Assessment (CTA) is a means to guide early implementation of new developments in society, and can be used as an evaluation tool for Coverage with Evidence Development (CED). We used CTA for the introduction of a new diagnostic test in the Netherlands, the 70-gene prognosis signature (MammaPrint®) for node-negative breast cancer patients.
Methods: Studied aspects were (organizational) efficiency, patient-centeredness and diffusion scenarios. Pre-post structured surveys were conducted in fifteen community hospitals concerning changes in logistics and teamwork as a consequence of the introduction of the 70-gene signature. Patient-centeredness was measured by questionnaires and interviews regarding knowledge and psychological impact of the test. Diffusion scenarios, which are commonly applied in industry to anticipate on future development and diffusion of their products, have been applied in this study.
Results: Median implementation-time of the 70-gene signature was 1.2 months. Most changes were seen in pathology processes and adjuvant treatment decisions. Physicians valued the addition of the 70-gene signature information as beneficial for patient management. Patient-centeredness (n = 77, response 78 percent): patients receiving a concordant high-risk and discordant clinical low/high risk-signature showed significantly more negative emotions with respect to receiving both test-results compared with concordant low-risk and discordant clinical high/low risk-signature patients. The first scenario was written in 2004 before the introduction of the 70-gene signature and identified hypothetical developments that could influence diffusion; especially the “what-if” deviation describing a discussion on validity among physicians proved to be realistic.
Conclusions: Differences in speed of implementation and influenced treatment decisions were seen. Impact on patients seems especially related to discordance and its successive communication. In the future, scenario drafting will lead to input for model-based cost-effectiveness analysis. Finally, CTA can be useful as a tool to guide CED by adding monitoring and anticipation on possible developments during early implementation, to the assessment of promising new technologies.

A photochromic tracer method has been used to record pulsatile flow velocity profiles simultaneously at three axial locations along a flow channel. Two major advantages of this multiple-trace method are that it enables velocity data to be acquired in an efficient non-invasive manner and that it provides a detailed description of the spatial relationship of the flow field. The latter is found to be particularly useful in the investigation of transitional type flows; for example, in describing coherent flow structures. Studies of the flow patterns in tubes with mild to moderate degrees of vessel constriction were performed using a 2.9 Hz sinusoidal flow superimposed on a steady flow (frequency parameter of 7.5; mean and modulation Reynolds numbers of 575 and 360, respectively). With mild constrictions (< 50% area reduction), isolated regions of vortical and helical structures were observed primarily during the deceleration phase of the flow cycle and in the vicinity of the reattachment point. As expected, these effects were accentuated when the constriction was asymmetric. For moderate constrictions (50%–80%), transition to turbulence was triggered just before peak flow through the breakdown of waves and streamwise vortices that were shed in the high-shear layer. During this vortex generation phase of the flow cycle, the wall shear stress fluctuated quite intensely, especially in the vicinity of the reattachment point, and its instantaneous value increased by at least a factor of eight. Such detailed descriptions of the transition to turbulence and of the spatial and temporal variation of the wall shear stress, particularly near the reattachment point, have not been previously reported for pulsatile flow through constricted tubes. The observed wall shear stress variations support a proposal by Mao & Hanratty (1986) of an interaction of the imposed flow oscillation with the turbulent fluctuations within the viscous sublayer.

We present phase resolved spectra of the Be binary ϕ Per. It is shown that orbital phase variations of the He I line profiles are due to a sector emission region in the circumprimary disk facing the secondary. The increasing asymmetry of Fe II emission lines indicates a density inhomogeneity in the circumprimary disk that developed after 1996.

Transparent, nanophase-separated, inorganic-organic hybrid polymers with dielectric constants below 3.0 have been prepared from reactively functionalized poly(amic ester) derivatives and substituted, oligomeric silsesquioxanes. These hybrid materials are stable to 400 °C and above and form tough, crack-free films. Induced cracking and crack propagation studies performed with the application of external stress suggest a maximum critical film thickness of at least 2.0 μm under severe stress conditions. These hybrid materials appear to be significantly toughened by the chemical incorporation of the polyimides relative to organically modified silicates and spin-on-glasses without significantly effecting other important polymer properties of the silicates.

Summary
Abstract
We apply the binary black hole model to explain the wiggles in the milliarcsec radio jet of the superluminal quasar 1928+738 (4C73.18) observed with VLBI at 1.3 cm wavelength by Hummel et al. (1992). The period and amplitude of the wiggles can be explained as due to the orbital motion of a binary black hole with mass of order 108 solar masses, mass ratio larger than 0.1 and orbital radius ∼ 1016 cm. The jet's inclination to the line of sight should be small, confirming the standard interpretation of superluminal motion and one-sidedness as due to relativistic motion in a direction close to the line of sight. The small orbital radius suggests that the binary has been losing a significant amount of orbital energy during the last 107 years, possibly by interaction with the matter which is flowing through the active galactic nucleus.
Introduction
Galaxy mergers must have been a common phenomenon especially during the collapse and virialisation of rich groups and clusters of galaxies. These mergers lead to the formation of massive binary black holes in galactic nuclei if black holes of 107−9M⊙ are formed in the nuclei of most bright galaxies at redshifts of about 2. A massive binary black hole (MBBH) may manifest itself by Lens-Thirring precession of a jet emitted along the spin axis of one of the holes (Begelman et al. 1980, hereafter BBR).

Possible mechanisms which may explain the strong blue/violet (410 nm) photoluminescence (PL) in spark-processed Si (sp-Si) are critically reviewed and discussed. They include involvement of silicon-oxides, silicon-hydrides, silanol groups, siloxene, and silicon carbide. It is concluded from the experimental evidence that none of the above mechanisms can satisfactorily explain the major contribution(s) to PL in sp-Si.

Porous silicon which has been prepared by a “dry” technique, that is, by spark erosion, yields similar photoluminescence spectra as anodically etched porous silicon which has been prepared in aqueous solutions. Fourier transform infrared spectra reveal that the dominant features in spark eroded silicon are the Si-O-Si stretching mode and the Si-O-Si bending mode. No infrared vibrational modes characteristic for siloxene have been found in spark eroded Si. Results from X-ray and electron diffraction studies suggest that spark eroded Si involves minute polycrystalline silicon particles which are imbedded in an amorphous matrix.

As part of a multi-epoch and multi-wavelength study of the physics of core dominated radio sources we have investigated the occurrence of apparent superluminal motion and other indications for bulk relativistic motion (b.r.m) in a statistically complete, flux density limited (S5GHz ≥ 1Jy) sample of 13 objects with flat radio spectra These sources come from the S5-survey (Kühr et al., 1981) and are optically identified as 7 quasars and 6 BL-Lac objects. They have been observed over a wide range of frequencies, from radio through X-rays (s. Eckart et al., 1986 and references therein). Radiomaps have been obtained at frequencies from 327 MHz to 22.2 GHz with resolutions from arcseconds to 0.2 mas, using the VLA, MERLIN and telescopes of the US- and European-VLBI networks. A recent status report on the VLBI-observations is given by Witzel (1987). In this paper we summarize the results on the direct evidence for b.r.m. in this sample as derived from repeated VLBI-observations at 5 GHz, as well as supporting evidence from SSC-calculations and flux density variability of the 5GHz VLBI core components (Table 1).
