ADR Safety System in Efficiency Conditioning

Conditioning of fear and conditioning of safety in rats.

In separate groups of rats forward and backward procedures for classical defensive conditioning were superimposed on on-going bar pressing for food. The forward conditioned stimulus elicited suppression of bar presses, indicating acquisition of fear. The backward stimulus paired with identical shock elicited behaviour typical for rats in a condition of safety and caused an increase of bar press...

Effects of Architectural Somatic Variables on Mixed Air Conditioning Systems’ Efficiency in Industrial Buildings

Testing Portfolio Efficiency with Conditioning Information

We develop asset pricing models' implications for portfolio efficiency when there is conditioning information in the form of a set of lagged instruments. A model of expected returns identifies a portfolio that should be minimum variance efficient with respect to the conditioning information. Our framework refines previous tests of portfolio efficiency by using a given set of conditioning inform...

Network Characteristic Analysis of ADR-related Proteins and Identification of ADR-ADR Associations

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are caused by interactions between drugs or their metabolites and specific proteins. Knowledge of these proteins is important for facilitating mechanistic research of ADRs and new drug discovery. Here, we identified 41 network modules from an ADR-protein network; analysed the function of each module; revealed the potential accompanying actions of the ADRs and the n...

Enhanced Safety and Efficiency

This paper presents a novel retransmission strategy for communication networks based on index coding. The particular example of OFDMA downlink networks is taken to illustrate its efficacy. The benefits and challenges in using index coding as a transmission strategy are highlighted. The paper concludes with characterization of expected index coding gain in terms of channel parameters.
