Maize (Zea mays) is one of the most important cereal crops grown principally during raining season in Ethiopia which commonly used for both human consumption and poultry feed. Green house experiment on effect watering frequency germination early growth maize was carried out at Ambo Agricultural Research Center using a hybrid variety (Jibat) from December 1 to January20th, 2018/19. The study con...

T raining for functional fitness has become an increasingly popular approach for personal trainers and strength coaches alike. According to Okada et al. (15), functional movement can be defined as the ability to produce and maintain a balance between mobility and stability along a kinetic chain while carrying out fundamental patterns with accuracy and efficiency. Given this definition, the prim...

The Monty Hall problem (or three-door problem) is a famous example of a "cognitive illusion," often used to demonstrate people's resistance and deficiency in dealing with uncertainty. The authors formulated the problem using manipulations in 4 cognitive aspects, namely, natural frequencies, mental models, perspective change, and the less-is-more effect. These manipulations combined led to a sig...

We stud y th e amount of ti me needed to learn a fixed t raining se t in the "back-pro pagation" proced ure for learning in multi-layer neural network models. The task chosen was 32-bit parity, a highorder funct ion for wh ich memorization of specific inpu t-output pairs is necessary. For small t raining sets , the learning time is consistent with a ~-power law depen dence on the number of patt...

A modular rainfall retrieval called Advective-Convective-Technique (ACT) was developed at the LCRS that is based on data from geostationary sensors in the water vapour and infrared channel. Extended regions of stratiform precipitation in the vicinity of convective cores are identified by a kmeans cluster analysis and rainrates are assigned using a 3-D cloud model. During daytime an extended ide...

In this paper, I first outline Aumann’s famous “no agreeing to disagree" theorem, and a second related theorem. These results show that if two or more agents, who have epistemic and credal states that are defined over algebras that do not include any self-locating propositions, have certain information about one another’s epistemic and credal states, then such agents must assign the same creden...
