Notes. As described in the text, a mock catalogue was created using assumed LF models. This catalogue was then used to model the LFs in order to test the validity of the modelling methodology.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
