Study on effects of thoron and thermal treatment for aging-related diseases in humans

Background: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of thoron and thermal treatment for aging-related diseases in humans. Materials and Methods: All subjects inhaled thoron with a high concentration (about 4900 Bq/m3) for 2 weeks. Blood pressures were measured and blood samples were collected after each treatment 1, 2 and 3 weeks after the first treatment. Results: The α-atria...

Intelligent Behavior in Humans and Machines

In this paper, I review the role of cognitive psychology in the origins of artificial intelligence and in our continuing pursuit of this objective. I consider some key ideas about representation, performance, and learning that had their inception in computational models of human behavior, and I argue that this approach to developing intelligent systems, although no longer common, has an importa...

Emotional Speaker Identification by Humans and Machines

This paper concerns the problem of the effect of emotion change on human and machine for speaker identification. A contrasting experiment is carried out between Automatic Speaker Identification (ASI) system (applying GMM-UBM and Emotional Factor Analysis (EFA) algorithm)and aural system on emotional speech corpus MASC. The experimental result is similar to that in channel-mismatched condition, ...

Computational Learning in Humans and Machines

In this paper we review research on machine learning and its relation to computational models of human learning. We focus initially on concept induction, examining ve main approaches to this problem, then consider the more complex issue of learning sequential behaviors. After this, we compare the rhetoric that sometimes appears in the machine learning and psychological literature with the growi...
