Learning object repositories are useful, but are they usable?
Learning Object Repositories seems to be the solution to facilitate the sharing and reusing of learning material. As useful as they may appear, Learning Object Repositories are not in widespread use among faculty around the world. There are indications that the amount of work and time required to use the Repositories is the main reason for the reluctance of teachers. This work analyzes the tool...
متن کاملEssentially all models are wrong, but some are useful.
Recent advances in high-throughput technologies, such as genome-wide SNP analysis and microarray gene expression profiling, have led to a multitude of ranked lists, where the features (SNPs, genes) are sorted based on their individual correlation with a phenotype. Multiple reviews have shown that most such rankings vary considerably across different studies, even in the case of subsampling from...
متن کاملBernstein Bases are Optimal , but , sometimes , Lagrange Bases are Better
Experimental observations of rootfinding by generalized companion matrix pencils expressed in the Lagrange basis show that the method can sometimes be numerically stable, and indeed sometimes be much more stable than rootfinding of polynomials expressed in even the Bernstein basis. This paper details some of those experiments and provides a theoretical justification for this. We prove that a ne...
متن کاملAre post-trial observational studies useful?
For more than two centuries, the measurement of urinary proteins has been a standard tool for nephrologists to diagnose kidney disease. Renal disease is characterized by changes in the glomerular filtration barrier leading to increased urinary excretion of proteins, the main protein of which is albumin. This was later called macroalbuminuria and appeared to be associated with an increased risk ...
متن کاملWhen Are Links Useful? Experiments in Text Classification
Link analysis methods have become popular for information access tasks, especially information retrieval, where the link information in a document collection is used to complement the traditionally used content information. However, there has been little firm evidence to confirm the utility of link information. We show that link information can be useful when the document collection has a suffi...
