Incorporating children's toxicokinetics into a risk framework.
Children's responses to environmental toxicants will be affected by the way in which their systems absorb, distribute, metabolize, and excrete chemicals. These toxicokinetic factors vary during development, from in utero where maternal and placental processes play a large role, to the neonate in which emerging metabolism and clearance pathways are key determinants. Toxicokinetic differences bet...
متن کاملIncorporating Event Risk into Value-at-Risk
Event risk is the risk that a portfolio’s value can be affected by large jumps in market prices. Event risk is synonymous with “fat tails” or “jump risk”. Event risk is one component of “specific risk,” defined by bank supervisors as the component of market risk not driven by market-wide shocks. Standard Value-at-Risk (VaR) models used by banks to measure market risk do not do a good job of cap...
متن کاملIncorporating Linkage Learning into the GeLog Framework
This article introduces modifications that have been applied to GeLog , a genetic logic programming framework, in order to improve its performance. The main emphasis of this work is the structure processing of genetic algorithms. As studies have shown, the linkage of genes plays an important role for the performance of genetic algorithms. Thus, different approaches that take linkage learning in...
متن کاملIncorporating Nature into Therapy: a Framework for Practice
In most cases, therapy is addressed as an indoor, verbal, and cognitive activity, with the relationship between therapist and client at its center (McLeod, 2003). This article presents an alternative approach to therapy, conducted in creative ways in nature, addressing the environment not merely as a setting but as a partner in the process. The article includes examples of work that took place ...
متن کاملA Framework for Incorporating Class Priors into Discriminative Classification
Discriminative and generative methods provide two distinct approaches to machine learning classification. One advantage of generative approaches is that they naturally model the prior class distributions. In contrast, discriminative approaches directly model the conditional distribution of class given inputs, so the class priors are only implicitly obtained if the input density is known. In thi...
