Lara’s Faces - Phương [English]

Check out the first interview of our 25th Anniversary Tomb Raider Special!

My name is Phương, i'm from Vietnam and my native language is Vietnamese. I'm a freelance artist from a studio name "Cloud Pillow Studio"

1-What is your favorite Tomb Raider? 

A: I didn't play every Tomb Raider game like Classic or LAU , so all i can say it's Reboot Trilogy (Shadow is my belove one) and TR anniversary. damn sometime i wish i played all TR game when i was still in highschool.

2-Which scene or scenes in Tomb Raider marked your life?

A: i think the scene in Shadow of the Tomb Raider : after Lara Croft killed all the Trinity and destroyed the oil field, thinking Jonah was dead but fortunately not, Lara at that time was very desperate because all her plans failed, Trinity keep over her head, but a little idea to decipher the sentence. Lopez's quiz helped Lara regain her self-belief, she rise back and a bit happy, I found that scene really emotional and ít's move me. "trust your instinct".

3- When you thought about drawing Lara Croft did you feel in a creative challenge?

A: The creative challenge i deal I had to draw this character so that Tomb Raider fans would recognize this as Lara Croft who is strong, beautiful and deadly woman.

4- When did you start playing Tomb Raider? What was your first game?

A: My first Tomb Raider game i played it's Tomb Raider 2013, i played in 2018, it's funny that i knew who Lara Croft from Adam Hughes's drawing but never played her game before.

5-What did you think of the unified Lara Croft proposal?

A: It's awesome, i really want to look how the team Crystal Dynamic gonna doing with the Unified Timeline ,It is like a work for comic writting. How they gonna create new universe of Tomb raider world, Natla would be a God among us, magic shit happen to modern world an people can't use logic to explain why etc... many idea. haha

  6- What bothers you most about Tomb Raider and what do you do to avoid being exposed?

A: A gerne like Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider, Uncharted always stick around with adventure in different country, unfamiliar land, it will stick a problem like stereotype, wrong potrait, midunderstood culture and history stuff like that... i mean look at Tomb Raider 2 with an Eastern the dragon from China,he's breath fire, being asshole and a knife in a heart that is not an Eastern Dragon at all, and that's un-doing homework and many hard subject i will not bring here haha. but i'm glad modern game now gain more popular all around the world, people from different country, culture can playing, and creative team did their research, work with real historian and archeologist to serve player with mature writting. like Himiko in Tomb Raider 2013 that was soo cool and fit with real life lore, Japanese army in pacific islands. Paititi city look beautyful like the legend tell, a golden city with beautiful waterfalls, temple with gold, rituals offering gold to the gods from Paititian. so yeah just do some research before u writting a specific location, you gonna doing fine to avoid  controversy mistake.

7- Have you taken any courses to draw like this? Or was it just practical?~

A: - Mostly all for fun, you know what miss Croft said "i'm sorry, i only play for sport <3", but if i don't love anything so much i wouldn't take time drawing like this <3. so it's because I Love Tomb Raider.

Thank you very much for the opportunity to interview one of the artists that most marks the Tomb Raider community in recent times :)

[soulcluster-moved]

me when I picked up survivor lara: well I’m just going to mesh her timelines together anyway because I can and it makes sense, also her older stuff is awesome tr 25th anniversary: lara’s classic adventures are now canon to her timeline and there’s a unified lara

[fantroll-purgatory]

@nitrodax233

Hello again, it took me a while to choose between the last two of my original 11 trolls but since you asked what the Seer would do on the last post, here she is.

World: Alternia

Name: Tahila Meroba

Tahila is a variant of the Australian name Talia which stems from the name of a town in South Australia, perhaps meaning “near water” in an Australian Aboriginal language.

Meroba is based on the name Merob, a form of the name Merab which means “abundant” in Hebrew. This is the name of a daughter of Saul in the Old Testament.

I *do* notice that a lot of your trolls have something to do with the elements, so if you want to make a unifying theme maybe you could shore up a little more on that? Age: ~7 sweeps

Theme/Story: I’m not sure if many of the trolls I make really have a Theme. But with their story, Tahila began in the caverns until a wriggler escaped. They gave chase and eventually caught it more dead than alive. They eventually distanced herself from the caverns as time wore on and eventually heard about her ancestor, The FINISHER, while perusing a library. While on her scouting mission to find out what happened to them, she ran into Arrian trying to find out more about his ancestor, The SCRIBBLER. Not too long before she enters the game, she finds an artifact left from her ancestor, a pocket watch called the Temporus Noctem. One of the functions of the watch was if you set it to a certain amount of time, when the timer is up, there will be a guaranteed death of at least one person. This comes in handy later in the session for it is a bit of a clusterfuck. As with how she stops Haneul, she finds out that it was the provoking from Serena and Lutifi which drove him mad. Thus as she stands over the body of Haneul, she goes back and gives herself two letters concerning Serena and Lutifi. This eventually gets the Sylph of Hope involved and with a bit of understanding and airing things out, the crisis is averted with a feelings jam of sorts.

Hmmmm. I think this mostly tracks, but Seers are a very passive class and I don’t know that a Seer of Time would necessarily be able to time travel! However, I can still think of a way for your character to fulfill her objective if we look back at how Rose integrated with her dreamself from a doomed timeline. You could set it up so that her “time travel” is actually a calculated rewind in which she does not physically return to a previous time, but mentally; everyone else experiences the timeline as normal, but Tahlia’s dreamself wakes earlier, with patchy knowledge of what comes to pass in the doomed one. This way, she can act on that info without creating another doomed self.

Review Goals: Since it’s been a while since I checked everything, A once over would be great just to see if everything fits together.

Strife Specibus: x2 Axe kind: Just two one-handed axes

Fetch Modus: Time Capsule: For each item you captchalogue, you’ll be assigned a date in which that item can be retrieved. It can be any point in time in the future, as long as it isn’t less than a day from then.

Ooooh I like this a LOT for a Time player

Blood Color: Jade

Lunar Sway: Prospit Title: Seer of Time

Symbol and Meaning: When I first designed her, she was a jade gone anon with a more bronze looking sign. Then it was you guys I believe who inspired me to switch up her sign to make it look a bit more jade-like.

Handle: telegnosisTempore I could never settle with a handle that fit with her…

Hey, since she’s a seer, what about just nostreDame [ND]?

Quirk: It is mostly something like this (An exerpt from when she faces Regula),

Tahila: Vhat do you mean?

Tahila: Despite your aggressions, I don’t think you knoVV Vho you are messing Vith.

Special Abilities: Nothing really of note, just a curious troll

Lusus/Guardian: Though I am not very well versed in homesuck, Im not sure what would constitute for a jade lusus…

Yeah, that’s always a tricky needle to thread. We’ve only seen Kanaya, whose Mother Grub lusus was practically unprecedented, and the cloistered jades in the Friendsim, who...I am not sure if cloistering is common? I’ll let you have your pick; she could have a jade lusus of any type from the caverns, or she could just be raised communally with other jades.

Interests:  Lots of reading, the inner machinations of machines, photography, and a hint of decoration

Personality:  With the suffocating limits of the caverns, she has been having trouble embracing the idea of fate especially since she caught wind of her ancestor. With this and her dreading her final days she has attempted to control her environment adopting a somewhat perfectionist nature on how things are done. With this baggage, She carries a surprisingly large bag of optimism to try and combat the idea of futility.

Land: For a placeholder land, it was the Land of Crystals and Gears. I’m not sure if it holds well with her.

Hmmmmm. Since she’s into photography (much like Dave), we can use *that* as the flavoring for her Land and go with Land of Floodlights and Shutters? She could use the two to broadcast clacks-style messages across the planet.

Thanks for showing me your troll! Hope this all helped.

Something about dates, numbers and Archons

So, I got interested in “how long some of the known Archons served/lived” during the timeline (and I think nobody has done it yet? Idk), and got a little research and gathered some information in one place (it’s not a lot, actually + some of that information is already known), maybe someone will be interested (Everything of that is just “numbers” and “dates” speculations). Probably lots of text(?).

Archons with numbers (that was mentioned and what I could find):

- Bleden Mark, Archon of Shadows (The earliest mention: ??? TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) mentioned that he was a normal human about 300 years ago, before becoming an Overlord’s assassin. The exact age is unknown.

- Thousand Ambers, the first mentioned Archon of Fire (The earliest mention: 26 TR; the latest mention: 73 TR) was born in 26 TR and assasinated by Bleden Mark in 73 TR, which makes him 47 years old when he died.

- The Orphan Midwife, Archon of Rebirth (The earliest mention: 160 TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) born in 160 TR, but still lives during 431 TR, imprisoned by Kyros, which makes her 271 years old during the game events.

Nox Mirea, Archon of Pestilence (The earliest mention: ??? TR; the latest mention: ??? (431) TR) Rhogalus mentions that she died at the age of 20. The date of her birth and death is unknown.

- Cairn, Archon of Stone (The earliest mention: 402 TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) the age is unknown. Was serving Kyros for 28 years since 402 TR and until 430 TR (during Conquest; +1 year after the Edict of Stone = 29 years).

- Graven Ashe, Archon of War (The earliest mention: 330 TR; the latest mention: 431) the age is unknown, but he was serving Kyros for 101 years since 330 TR. (Possibly Amelia and Brennix were born after he became an Archon, according to their age. The date of birth and death of the other two of his children are unknown).

- The Voices of Nerat, Archon of Secrets (The earliest mention: 330 TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) was mentioned alongside with Ashe, when he destroyed his forces. Older then him, since he has known the previous Archon of War pretty well (maybe, or maybe not).

- Pox, Archon of Ruin (The earliest mention: 330 TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) was mentioned alongside with Nerat and Ashe too, but she already had an army by that time, which she disbanded. The age is unknown.

- Tunon, Archon of Justice (The earliest mention: ??? TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) the eldest of living Archons (the ones who work for Kyros), mentioned that he was born centuries ago, “before the dream of a unified Northern Empire was fully realized”. But was serving Kyros for nearly ~400 years.

- Occulted Jade, Archon of Tides (The earliest mention: ??? TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) the eldest known (and living, of course) Tiersman and Archon. Sailed with the first settlers at Five Wives, but exact date is unknown. Eb mentions that the School of Tides was living for nearly five centuries. ("Our patron, Occulted Jade, Archon of Tides is as old as the settlers of the Five Wives, and for nearly five centuries we were masters of the coasts and the rivers. These days, it's a school of one, you're looking at it.") Really rough and possible date of foundation of School of Tides: -69 TR.

- Sirin, Archon of Song (The earliest mention: ???; the latest mention: 431 TR) 15 years old, according to official information. Counting, she was (probably?) born in 416 TR.

- Kyros The Overlord (The earliest mention: -50 TR; the latest mention: 431 TR) the age is unknown. Visited a Spire in -50 TR, and, counting from that date, it was 481 years since that.

The History of Task View | task view

Two hundred and seven advantageous participants were recruited from the University of York (132 females, 75 males; age range = 18–31 years, M = 20.21, SD = 2.36). This assay included two abstracts sets with some aggregate abstracts and the aforementioned MRI protocol. Participants were right-handed built-in English speakers with accustomed or corrected-to-normal eyes and no history of psychiatric or acoustic illness. Participants underwent MRI scanning, completed a 1-h online questionnaire. Of the aboriginal cohort, participants abounding three (165 participants; 99 females, 66 males; age range = 18–31 years, M = 20.43, SD = 2.63) 2-h behavioural testing sessions to complete a array of cerebral tasks. The additional accomplice (42 participants; 33 females, 9 males; age range = 18–23 years, M = 19.79, SD = 1.37) underwent two 2-h behavioural testing sessions to complete a array of cerebral tasks. The behavioural sessions took abode aural a anniversary of the scan. Twenty-nine participants were afar from the multivariate arrangement assay because they bootless to complete all of the behavioural testing sessions or bootless the imaging abstracts affection check. In total, 178 participants (113 females, 65 males; age range = 18–25 years, M = 19.81, SD = 1.66) were included in the multivariate arrangement assay and the allegory with cerebral performance. Participants were adored with either a acquittal of £10 per hour or a adequate bulk of advance credit. All participants provided accounting accord above-mentioned to the fMRI affair and the aboriginal behavioural testing session. Approval for the abstraction was acquired from the belief board of the University of York Department of Psychology and the University of York Neuroimaging Centre. All abstracts accretion methods acclimated in this abstraction were in accordance with international, national, and institutional guidelines.

Structural and anatomic abstracts were acquired appliance a 3 T hdx accelerate MRI scanner (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) utilising an eight-channel phased-array arch braid acquainted to 127.4 MHz at the York Neuroimaging Centre, University of York. Structural MRI accretion in all participants was based on a T1-weighted 3-D fast-spoiled gradient-echo arrangement alliteration time (TR) = 7.8 s, answer time (TE) = minimum full, cast angle = 20°, cast size = 256 × 256, 176 slices, voxel size = 1.13 × 1.13 × 1 mm3. Resting-state action was recorded from the whole-brain appliance single-shot 2-d gradient-echo-planar imaging TR = 3 s, TE = minimum full, cast angle = 90°, cast size = 64 × 64, 60 slices, voxel size =  3 × 3 ×  3 mm3, 180 volumes. Participants beheld a fixation cantankerous for the continuance of the 9-min fMRI resting-state scan. A fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery (FLAIR) browse with the aforementioned acclimatization as the anatomic scans were calm to advance co-registration amid subject-specific structural and anatomic scans.

All preprocessing and denoising accomplish for the anatomic MRI abstracts were agitated out appliance the SPM software amalgamation (Version 12.0) and Conn anatomic connectivity toolbox (Version 17.f), based on the MATLAB belvedere (Version 17.a). The aboriginal three anatomic volumes were removed to accomplish steady-state magnetisation. The actual abstracts were aboriginal adapted for motion appliance six degrees of abandon (x, y, z translations and rotations), and adapted for differences in slice-time. Subsequently, the high-resolution structural images were co-registered to the beggarly anatomic angel via rigid-body transformation, anecdotal into blah matter, white bulk and cerebrospinal aqueous anticipation maps, and all anatomic volumes were spatially normalized to Montreal Acoustic Institute (MNI) amplitude appliance the anecdotal images and a priori templates. This aberrant action utilizes the unified assay normalization framework, which combines tissue segmentation, bent correction, and spatial normalization in a distinct unified model. No cutting was employed, acknowledging with contempo studies that address the abrogating access of this action on the architecture of connectivity matrices analysis.

Moreover, a growing anatomy of abstract indicates the abeyant access of actor motion central the scanner on the consecutive estimates of anatomic connectivity. To ensure that motion and added artefacts did not abash our data, we accept active all-encompassing motion-correction and denoising procedures, commensurable to those appear in the literature. In accession to the abatement of six alteration ambit and their second-order derivatives appliance the accustomed beeline archetypal (GLM), a beeline detrending appellation was activated as able-bodied as the CompCor adjustment that removed bristles arch apparatus of the arresting from white bulk and cerebrospinal fluid. Moreover, the volumes afflicted by motion were articular and adjourned based on the bourgeois settings of motion greater than 0.5 mm and all-around arresting changes beyond than z = 3. Though contempo letters advance the adeptness of all-around arresting corruption to annual for arch motion, it is additionally accustomed to acquaint affected anti-correlations and was appropriately not utilised in our analysis. Finally, a band-pass clarify amid 0.009 and 0.08 Hz was active to focus on low-frequency fluctuations.

The Craddock connectivity-based parcellation48 was called as the abounding academician parcellation. We acclimated a set of 100 regions (K = 10) from the two-level spatial connectivity-based parcellation. The Craddock album clusters abut spatially articular regions that are added functionally homogenous, appropriately it approved acceptable ambit abridgement adeptness in the ambience of resting-state anatomic connectivity analysis. The spatial connectivity-based parcellation focuses on affinity amid anatomic connectivity maps48. Fully connected, accidental and abounding matrices of bivariate alternation coefficients (Pearson’s r) were complete for anniversary actor appliance the boilerplate BOLD arresting time alternation acquired from all the 100 ROIs declared above. The off-diagonal of anniversary alternation cast absolute 4,950 altered measures of region-region affiliation strengths (i.e., the high or lower triangle of the arrangement covariance matrix). This access provided a admeasurement of affiliation backbone of the whole-brain for anniversary participant. Finally, Fisher’s r-to-z transformation was activated to anniversary arrangement covariance matrix.

We called 9 cerebral tasks that are accustomed beyond the two cohorts. The called tasks admeasurement cerebral functions that accept been advised in antecedent mind-wandering literature, encompassing controlling ascendancy (digit span, assignment switching task49), bearing of advice (unusual uses task50, exact delivery task), semantic anamnesis (semantics picture-word analogous tasks51: relatedness judgement tasks and affection analogous task52), anecdotal anamnesis (paired-associate task53, four mountains task54), and aqueous intelligence (Raven Advanced Progressive Matrices; RAPM55).

Thirteen cerebral array were affected from the called tasks. Achievement of the chiffre bulk assignment was represented as the boilerplate of chiffre bulk in the advanced and astern anamnesis conditions. The exact delivery account is the adverse of the class action and letter action (category—letter). The antecedent research35 shows that class delivery is added abased on semantic memory, while letter delivery is added executively demanding. Account allotment tasks, the four mountains tasks, RAMP were summarised with accurateness scores. The assignment switching admeasurement provided two array (a) adaptability (In the aboriginal abstraction by Whitmer and colleagues49, adverse “switch cost”, abate ethics indicates bigger adeptness to about-face abroad from the antecedent condition. For the affluence of interpretation, we antipodal the array and re-named the adverse as “flexibility”) as the adeptness to about-face from a altered action and (b) inhibition as the adeptness to abolish advice from the antecedent trial. The adding of the assignment switching adverse can be begin in the aboriginal study49. All the semantics accompanying judgement tasks, affection analogous task, and the paired-associate assignment were summarised appliance ability scores. The ability array were affected as acknowledgment time disconnected by accuracy. A abate account indicates bigger performance, appropriately the array were antipodal to affluence the interpretation. In the semantics picture-word analogous task51, a account delving was akin either to an associated chat (for strong, anemic and chat conditions) or an associated account (in the account condition) or to the name of the account at a superordinate or specific level. We affected three contrasts based on the semantics modules tested: (a) backbone (strong–weak), modality (picture–word), and (b) specificity (specific–general). All the array were brought to a accustomed calibration by about-face ascent to 1 and beggarly centring to 0 for the consecutive analysis.

We adjourned the capacity of acquaintance in the ambience of a simple assignment that manipulated alive anamnesis bulk appliance a block architecture (see above-mentioned appear examples of this task7, 56). This assignment was performed at the alpha of anniversary class affair to abbreviate the addition of actor fatigue to these empiric measures. Measuring acquaintance over assorted canicule provided us with a added complete description of participants’ advancing anticipation at the akin of a affection than would accept been accessible in a distinct beginning session.

In both conditions, non-target trials complex the presentation of pairs of shapes actualization on the awning disconnected by a vertical line. The pairs could be a amphitheater and a square, a amphitheater and a triangle, or a aboveboard and a triangle for six accessible pairs (two altered left/right configurations for each). The pairs never had shapes of the aforementioned affectionate (e.g. A aboveboard and a square). In both tasks, afterward an capricious arrangement of non-target trials, a ambition balloon was presented in which participants had to accomplish a chiral response. The ambition was a baby bang presented in either dejected or red beyond conditions, with the colour counterbalanced beyond participants. In the 0-back condition, two shapes belted the ambition and the ambition would be identical to one of the two crabbed shapes. Participants had to announce by acute the adapted button which appearance akin the ambition shape. In the 1-back condition, the ambition was belted by two catechism marks and participants had to acknowledge depending on which ancillary the ambition appearance was on the above-mentioned trial. Responses were fabricated appliance the larboard and appropriate arrow keys. Fixation crosses presentation ranged from 1.3–1.7 s in accomplish of 0.05 s, non-targets were assorted from 0.8–1.2 s in accomplish of 0.05 s. Targets consistently ranged from 2.1–2.5 s in accomplish of 0.05 s and a acknowledgment from participants did not end the ambition presentation.

Multi-dimensional acquaintance sampling (MDES) was acclimated to call acquaintance during the 0-back/1-back task. This address uses self-report to appraise the capacity of adventures on a cardinal of dimensions. The anticipation probes aboriginal asked participants to bulk their akin of assignment focus (“My thoughts were focused on the assignment I was performing.”) on a sliding calibration from 0 (completely off-task) to 1 (completely on task). Participants again answered 12 about presented questions apropos the agreeable and anatomy of their acquaintance aloof afore they were probed. These questions (described in Table 1) were based on above-mentioned studies adopting this access to admeasurement self-generated thought7. There was a 20% adventitious of a anticipation delving actuality presented instead of a ambition with a best of one anticipation delving per action block of 0-back and 1-back. In anniversary session, an boilerplate of 14.07 (SD = 3.30, ambit 6–25) MDES probes occurred; in the 0-back action an boilerplate of 7.02 (SD = 2.36, ambit 2–14) MDES probes occurred and in the 1-back action an boilerplate of 7.04 (SD = 2.24, ambit 1–15) occurred. In total, we sampled 7,006 examples of acquaintance in this study. In the accustomed analysis, we affected the beggarly array of anniversary catechism beyond the three sessions for anniversary participant. The MDES array were aboriginal adapted into z-scores for beggarly centring and assemblage about-face scaling. The array declared the boilerplate cursory acquaintance in anniversary dimension. We use this account in the multivariate arrangement assay after (Fig. 5).

Analysis flowchart. The flowchart of the assay pipeline. We aboriginal conducted SCCA to bare the hidden anatomy that combines the assignment measures and the anatomic connectivity data. The SCCA archetypal alternative is abundant in “Model selection” and Fig. 6. The abstract authority of abeyant variables was after advised by admiration the advancing anticipation report. We additionally analyze the associated cortical array change associated with the anatomic neurocognitive modes. For the cortical array analysis, amuse accredit to “Cortical array analysis”. For the capacity of assorted multivariate regression, amuse see “Group akin corruption analysis”.

How to use Task View features on Windows 9 | Windows Central – task view | task view

We performed a dispersed approved alternation assay (SCCA)30,31 on the anatomic connectomes and the cerebral tasks, to crop abeyant apparatus that reflect multivariate patterns beyond neural organisation and acknowledgment (For a agnate appliance for acquaintance sampling, see antecedent study29). SCCA maximised the beeline alternation amid the low-rank projections of two sets of multivariate abstracts sets with a dispersed archetypal to regularise the atomization solutions a action that helps maximise the interpretability of the results. The regularisation action of best is L1 penalty, which produces dispersed coefficients, acceptation that the approved vectors (i.e., advice from abounding variables to a abstracts matrix’s low-rank apparatus of variation) will accommodate a cardinal of absolutely aught elements. L1 regularisation conducted (a) affection alternative (i.e., baddest alone accordant components) and (b) archetypal admiration (i.e., actuate what aggregate of apparatus best disentangles the neurocognitive relationship) in an identical process. This way we handle adverse behaviours of classical beeline models in high-dimensional data. A reliable and able-bodied open-source accomplishing of the SCCA adjustment was retrieved as R amalgamation from CRAN (PMA, penalized multivariate analysis, adaptation 1.0.928). The bulk of L1 amends for the anatomic connectomes and cerebral assignment achievement were called by cross-validation. The action is declared in the area below.

Before SCCA, we regressed age, sex, arch motion adumbrated by beggarly frame-wise displacement53 out of both the connectivity and cerebral assignment abstracts to ensure that these abeyant confounders did not drive results. The accomplishing of the abash abatement adjustment was retrieved from Python library Nilearn (https://nilearn.github.io/, adaptation 0.3.1). As appearance that do not alter beyond capacity cannot be predictive of alone differences, we bound our assay of connectivity abstracts to the top 5% best capricious connections, as abstinent by boilerplate complete deviation, which is added able-bodied adjoin outliers than accustomed deviation57. Appropriately the ascribe abstracts to the consecutive assay abide of 247 ROI-ROI connectivity and 13 cerebral assignment measures.

The archetypal alternative action was conducted in two parts: L1 amends accessory alternative and basic selection. For the L1 amends accessory selection, we performed a filigree chase accumulated with cross-validation (CV) to abstain over-fitting58. Of anniversary amends brace on the chase grid, fivefold cross-validation was performed to chase for the best out-of-sample the rank-1 approved correlation. We again addle the abounding dataset with the called L1 amends coefficients (see the top console of Fig. 6). The K-Fold CV was conducted by the accomplishing in Python library scikit-learn (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/, adaptation 0.18.2).

Multivariate arrangement assay pipeline. Top: constant affability accumulated with k-fold cross-validation to chase for the best absence coercion with acute out-of-sample the rank-1 approved correlation. The called set of ambit was again acclimated as a base to recompute CCA on the abounding dataset. Bottom: About-face assay for approach selection.

We performed SCCA with the optimal hyper-parameters on the abounding abstracts set and adored all decompositions. A thousand permutations were activated to actuate the mode(s) that action aloft adventitious (see the basal console of Fig. 6). We complete an empiric absent administration for the set of approved apparatus by captivation the anatomic connectivity abstracts in abode and permuting the row adjustment of self-reports data. The about-face arrangement accurately abashed the articulation amid alone differences in the dataset. The arising administration of no-association furnishings in our assay bureaucracy provided the base for testing the robustness of the apparatus in the academic population. A p-value with family-wise absurdity (FWE) alteration was affected based on the about-face results. Modes are accustomed with a 5% akin of significance. In the accustomed analyses, we accept the about-face assay with the FWE-corrected p-value by Smith and colleagues59. All modes were compared to the aboriginal approved alternation of the permuted sample. The low-rank apparatus are added accordant than the rest, accordingly we crop added bourgeois p-value by comparing to the aboriginal approved alternation only.

To actuate how patterns of airy neurocognitive action accompanying to achievement on the advancing thoughts, self-report acquaintance summarised in three altered means (Overall average, boilerplate by days, and boilerplate by task), we conducted an absolute statistical assay on the identical subjects. The neuro-cognitive array were affected from averaging the approved variates in the cogent modes. A Type III assorted multivariate corruption with Pillai’s trace assay was activated to the data. Anniversary of the abeyant apparatus anecdotic the neurocognitive apparatus from the SCCA was the absolute variables, and the 13 measures from MDES were the abased variables. We appropriately asked how able-bodied airheadedness in the MDES items can be explained our able-bodied apparatus of brain-behaviour affiliation beyond individuals. We hoped to call the neuro-cognitive apparatus by the beeline aggregate of the self-report questions calm via MDES. The assay was conducted in Python library Statsmodels (https://www.statsmodels.org/stable/index.html).

Freesurfer was acclimated to appraisal vertex-wise cortical array (5.3.0; https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu). Briefly, the afterward processing accomplish were applied: acuteness normalisation, abatement of non-brain tissue, tissue allocation and apparent extraction. Cortical surfaces were visually inspected and adapted if necessary. Cortical array was affected as the abutting ambit amid the grey/white bulk abuttals and pial apparent at anniversary acme beyond the absolute cortex. A surface-based cutting with a full-width at bisected best (FWHM) = 20 mm was applied. Apparent alignment based on curvature to an boilerplate all-around representation, fsaverage5, was acclimated to advance accord of altitude locations amid subjects.

We analyze the accord amid the SCCA modes (i.e. their approved variates) and cortical array to accept the structural aftereffect of the neurocognitive components. The surfstat toolbox for Matlab60 was acclimated for structural covariance arrangement analysis, as in antecedent studies61,62. There is a absolute abrogating alternation amid age and cortical thickness60 and gender additionally influences cortical thickness61. Consequently, these variables were included as covariates of no interest. The archetypal adapted at a apparent point i is apparent as bellow:

$$begin{aligned} {text{Ti }} & = beta 0 , , beta {1 }*{text{ Sex }} , beta {2 }*{text{ Age }} , beta {3 }*{text{ Connectivity 1 }} hfill \ & quad , beta {4 }*{text{ Connectivity 2 }} , beta {5 }*{text{ Assignment 1 }} , beta {6 }*{text{ Assignment 2}} hfill \ end{aligned}$$

We bent cogent clusters in this archetypal appliance accidental acreage approach for nonisotropic images62 which controlled the Family-Wise Absurdity bulk at p < 0.05. We additionally explored the aftereffect of the neurocognitive score.

Task View – Wikipedia – task view | task view

Transformers: Classics

TUMBLR! I’m back! I’m real stoked on today’s essay. We’re gonna talk about the line that started it all, the line that puts the C in CHUG, the reason I’m a broke toy person, Transformers: Classics. This marks the beginning of a change of pace for us; from now on our analysis of Transformers will split into 3. The movies, the cartoon show, and the CHUG lines (read on for what CHUG means). I’ll switch which one we do every week, and we’ll work our way up that way. This is also the first essay I wrote, and I love it, it;’s so small.

Here you go!

Transformers:Classics was released in 2006, to compensate for the delay of the 2007 Transformers film.(Nevermore) It was a hodgepodge of different concepts, demonstrating  Hasbro’s reticence to rely entirely on collectors or nostalgia to sell toys, and their desire to include more broadly marketable elements to a line as well. Part of the line, most notably the legends class figures, is reminiscent of the 2003 Universe line, which consisted entirely of redecos of previously released toys.(Fiction Alchemist) Other parts of the line continue successful practices of the Unicron Trilogy lines; Classics released six new mold minicon teams.(Nevermore) However, the most significant part of Classics was the fact that it gave new toys with modern engineering to G1 characters. 

The deluxe and Voyager classes were entirely new molds of G1 characters.(Nevermore) Many of these characters, such as Astrotrain and Bumblebee, had not received figures since the end of G1.(ItsWalky;S.H.I.E.L.D Agent 47, Astrotrain) More notable still, this is the first time that any G1 characters received toys that were designed to be updated versions of the characters, faithful and evocative of their original appearances while relying on modern toy engineering. This is the main contribution of Classics; it launches the practice of having modern toys of G1 characters on the shelves without any supporting fiction, in contrast to toylines associated with the movies or the current television show. Indeed, the 2008 Universe line was occasionally referred to as Classics 2.0, emphasizing the direct thematic ties between the lines.(Jackpot) Many figures in the Universe line were branded as part of the “Classics Series” subline.(Jackpot) This practice of releasing updated G1 figures has continued, at first haltingly, then more or less continuously since 2012.(DDog)

    While it was not uncommon to include nods and references to previous Transformers fiction in figures, such as including a crown for Starscream, a reference to his appearance in the ‘86 movie, Classics introduced references of a novel opacity. Grimlock’s entire figure is a reference to his Pretenders figure. They both break from Grimlock’s traditional transformation scheme and end with him wielding his tail as a sword, and share a blaster with a bayonet.(Abates) Hot Rod features a flip out buzz saw, referencing a scene in the ‘86 movie (the place from which all Transformers references stem).(Rotty) Jetfire includes weapons and accessories to better replicate his original toy, a practice which has become standard on subsequent Jetfire figures.(S.H.I.E.L.D Agent 47, Jetfire) Astrotrain is decoed not to reflect his appearance in the cartoon, but his original toy.(S.H.I.E.L.D Agent 47, Astrotrain)

 What is remarkable about these references is that, while they have significant play value independent of understanding them, they are extremely arcane to the uninitiated. What child in 2006 is going to have ready access to Grimlock’s pretender figure, Jetfire’s original toy, or care enough about the ‘86 movie to scrutinize every frame? These references are clearly intended for adult collectors who remember these things from their own childhoods. Indeed, the very gimmicks of the line reference G1; The line also featured the return of rubsigns instead of regular faction insignias, which the 2010 Reveal the Shield line would also notably do.(S.H.I.E.L.D Agent 47, Transformers)   

Many characters have updated alternate modes. Grimlock turns into a more scientifically accurate T-Rex (archaeology having come some way since the 80’s), Astrotrain turns into a bullet train rather than a steam locomotive, Optimus Prime has a more aerodynamic cab, and Bumblebee turns into a little hatchback rather than a VW bug. This is evidence of Hasbro’s desire to fuse  nostalgia with other elements with broader appeal. Optimus Prime in particular is an excellent example; his new wind vane transforms into a new weapon for him to use, which fuses his new appearance and added play features.(FFN, Optimus) 

With the notable exceptions of Grimlock and Starscream, most of the figures feature sleek, rounded alternate modes, with paint applications that are mostly broad stripes of color. This is particularly visible on Astrotrain’s train mode and Optimus and Bumblebee’s alt modes. The palette is generally light and bright. Something else particular to the Classics line is the way the figures are jointed. While the use of ball joints is still reasonably widespread, Classics features an unusual prevalence of strange hinge joints. Of particular note is a kind of joint that appears on Astrotrain and Jetfire. There is one hinge for forward motion of the thigh in the middle of the thigh, rather than at the hip.This is quickly followed by a parallel knee hinge. At the hips, there is another hinge joint that provides the legs with their side to side motion.(S.H.I.E.L.D Agent 47, Astrotrain) The same designer is responsible for both toys.(FFN, Takashi)  

The Classics Seeker mold is historically significant enough to merit its own discussion. The Classics Seeker mold is widely regarded as the definitive Seeker mold. It takes inspiration from the Masterpiece Seeker mold and translates it to the deluxe size class, giving fans a cartoon accurate Starscream in rough scale with their Megatron and Optimus.(MistaTee) Over the course of its long history, the Seeker mold has been released as no fewer than 13 separate characters, and received a general retail release as recently as 2012, with an exclusive timelines figure as recently as 2015.(MistaTee;Poweredconvoy) Indeed, it is the single most redecoed and retooled mold in the history of the brand, beating out the next closest mold by almost double, 31 uses to 16 (For those of you curious, the next closest is Combiner Wars Dead End).(ZacWilliam) The mold is so popular that, during Transformers: Earthrise, a line famous for creating almost masterpiece level retail figures, the Starscream figure was simply an upscaled version of the Classics seeker mold with more joints. (MistaTee)Even almost 15 years after its initial release, the mold continues to influence subsequent lines.   

While the sheer number of uses of the Seeker mold in and of itself constitutes a tremendous impact on the brand, it also gives a taste of things to come in more contemporary Generations lines. This is, in some ways, foreshadowing of Hasbro’s developing and understandable taste for squeezing every drop of money from a mold with retools and redecos. Indeed, this is somewhat evident even Classics itself; the final wave consists of a retool, Ramjet, and a redeco, Cliffjumper.(Nevermore) The primary strategies are using heavy retooling to release another character with the same mold (Starscream into Ramjet) , or using extensive redecos to release new characters or premium versions of existing characters (Starscream into Sunstorm, or G2 Starscream). This tendency was carried to perhaps peak extent in Combiner Wars (CW) and Titans Return (TR), and will be discussed more fully while examining those lines. 

Classics established important norms carried on by subsequent CHUG lines. G1 characters were given new, well articulated toys created using modern engineering. Obscure references were also included in these figures, to appeal to adult collectors.  The figures all have a unifying but loose visual aesthetic. Neither Classics nor its successor lines, with some exceptions, have featured supporting fiction. The vast majority of Classics figures do not feature action gimmicks.  However, while Hasbro was willing to provide a nostalgia element to the line, they were not willing to count on it entirely. While the figures were designed with recreating the G1 cartoon in mind, most of the figures featured updated alternate modes, and also include play features that appeal to children as well as adult collectors. Many figures were included in the line which had nothing to do with the G1 cartoon, being redecos of toys from the then current Cybertron cartoon or direct extensions of popular elements of other lines, namely Minicons. This practice would continue for a few subsequent nostalgia lines, but somewhat fades by the contemporary era. 

This is an excellent example of an element of Classics that does not continue to influence other lines; while foundational, Classics was also unique in many respects. Classics figures feature comparatively large amounts of unbroken, solid plastic, a design element that became uncommon in later lines. Classics figures also have unusual jointing, perhaps demonstrating that designers had not yet gotten the hang of crafting these types of figures. Indeed, several examples of this sort of trial and error process are visible in other parts of the line. Astrotrain, his fellow triple-changers, and Grimlock would almost universally recieve Voyager class figures from here on out.(Nevermore) Grimlock is traditionally portrayed as large, and, as Universe Octane demonstrates, it’s quite difficult to make a deluxe triple changer.  Grimlock, even in other incarnations, such as the RID 2015 character, would feature transformation schemes much more heavily based on the original toy. Megatron (or anyone else for that matter, see TR Sixshot and Siege Shockwave for examples) would never again receive an above Legends class general retail toy with a gun alternate mode, likely due to laws about toy guns. 

Although Classics was a small line, in many respects it has had an outsized impact on the brand at large.Classics is a remarkable moment in the history of the brand. It represents a confluence of ideas, elements and engineering from many previous toylines and franchises. Classics was also the last line before the Transformers movies changed toy engineering forever. Yet at the same time, it laid the groundwork for one of the most important changes that has occurred in Transformers.  Before Classics, almost every toyline was of new characters, and supported by a cartoon. After Classics, the release of new mold figures of G1 characters became increasingly commonplace, eventually becoming one of the three pillars of the contemporary Transformers environment. It is no overstatement to say this little line helped to usher in the current form of Transformers.
