Does the hippocampus keep track of time?
In the present study, we examined the role of the medial temporal lobe (MTL) in prospective time estimation at short and long timescales using a novel behavioral paradigm adapted from rodent work. Amnesic patients with MTL damage and healthy control participants estimated the duration of nature-based video clips that were either short (≤ 90 s) or long (more than 4 min). Consistent with previous...
متن کاملKeep It Small, Keep It Real: Efficient Run-Time Verification of Web Service Compositions
Service compositions leverage remote services to deliver addedvalue distributed applications. Since services are administered and run by independent parties, the governance of service compositions is intrinsically decentralized and services may evolve independently over time. In this context, pre-deployment verification can only provide limited guarantees, while continuous run-time verification...

Background Recruiting participants to trials can be extremely difficult. Estimates of just how difficult vary but around half of trials fail to recruit their original target sample size. Poor recruitment can lead to an underpowered study, which may report clinically relevant effects to be statistically non-significant. A non-significant finding increases the risk that an effective intervention ...
متن کاملKeep It Simple Sheffield - A KISS Approach to the Arabic Track
Sheffield’s participation in the inaugural Arabic cross language track is described here. Our goal was to examine how well one could achieve retrieval of Arabic text with the minimum of resources and adaptation of existing retrieval systems.
