Diagnostic accuracy of neuropsychological tests for classification of dementia

Although numerous studies have shown that each neuropsychological test is effective for diagnosing mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or Alzheimer’s disease (AD), studies comparing diagnostic accuracies of various neuropsychological tests are relatively rare and practical cutoff values are not available. The present study aimed to investigate the validity of neuropsychological tests and develop cu...

Single-atom optical clock with high accuracy.

For the past 50 years, atomic standards based on the frequency of the cesium ground-state hyperfine transition have been the most accurate time pieces in the world. We now report a comparison between the cesium fountain standard NIST-F1, which has been evaluated with an inaccuracy of about 4 x 10(-16), and an optical frequency standard based on an ultraviolet transition in a single, laser-coole...

Orthogonal Accuracy Clock Synchronization

We present description and analysis of a novel orthogonal accuracy clock synchronization algorithm (OA), which takes care of both precision and accuracy with respect to external time. It is based upon the generic algorithm introduced in [SS97a] and utilizes a convergence function based on Marzullo’s fault-tolerant intersection function. As far as precision is concerned, we show that OA has the ...
