From the very beginning of Dining Bench the so-called Arab Spring in the winter of 2010, different authors drew parallels with the fall of communism and the democratization of Eastern Europe in 1989/1991.Even the name given to the political processes of the 2010 in North Africa was similar to the names of the political changes in communist Eastern
Design and Full-Scale Experimental Results of a Semi-Active Heave Compensation System for a 200 T Winch
Lifting and lowering a load on the ocean can be a dangerous task but can be made easy and safe by adopting heave compensation (HC) devices.The design and full-scale experimental results of a 3000-m semi-active heave compensation (AHC) system for a 200-T winch are presented in this paper.First, the design requirements are given and the semi-AHC mech
Learning-induced changes in attentional allocation during categorization: a sizable catalog of attention change as measured by eye movements.
SOOW Wire Learning how to allocate attention properly is essential for success at many categorization tasks.Advances in our understanding of learned attention are stymied by a chicken-and-egg problem: there are no theoretical accounts of learned attention that predict patterns of eye movements, making data collection difficult to justify, and there
Machine learning classification by fitting amplicon sequences to existing OTUs
ABSTRACT The ability to use 16S rRNA gene sequence data to train machine learning classification models offers the opportunity to diagnose patients based on the composition of their microbiome.In some applications, the taxonomic resolution that provides the best models may require the use of de novo operational taxonomic units (OTUs) whose composit
Pendulum test: Quantified assessment of the type and level of spasticity in persons with central nervous system lesions
The development of a comprehensive computational model of the pendulum test which is appropriate for the analysis of the pathologic behavior of the leg in humans with the central nervous system (CNS) Goal Bag lesion is presented in this review.The model relates to the pendulum movement of the lower leg (shank and the foot) in the lateral plane due
