Stock market prediction is an attractive research problem to be investigated. News contents are one of the most important factors that have influence on market. Considering the news impact in analyzing the stock market behavior, leads to more precise predictions and as a result more profitable trades. So far various prototypes have been developed which consider the impact of news in stock marke...

We present four training and prediction schedules from the same character-level recurrent neural network. The efficiency of these schedules is tested in terms of model effectiveness as a function of training time and amount of training data seen. We show that the choice of training and prediction schedule potentially has a considerable impact on the prediction effectiveness for a given training...

content discovery is one of the fundamental issues that determines the architecture and performance of content distribution networks based on peer-to-peer (p2p) networks. to administrate the costs and discoveries, peers of a p2p network communicate with each other by one or more overlay layers. the condition of node’s relations in overlay networks, have a great impact in efficiency of networks....

The purpose of this study was to assess a health impact assessment (HIA) tool to determine the perceived health impact by the public of a public park. The authors conducted a cross-sectional study from March to April, 2011, using this HIA questionnaire to collect data and through focus group discussions. We also assessed community concerns about the park and obtained recommendations of how to m...

INTRODUCTION The Center for Community Health and Evaluation conducted a 3-year evaluation to assess results of health impact assessments (HIAs) in the United States and to identify elements critical for their success. METHODS The study used a retrospective, mixed-methods comparative case study design, including a literature review; site visits; interviews with investigators, stakeholders, and...

This paper presents some preliminary work which attempts to adapt, in the context of deontic reasoning, the CO logic deened by Boutilier for reasoning with conditional preferences. The rst motivation for this work is that deontic logic can be given a semantics in terms of ordered worlds as in CO logic: the preference relation among worlds aims at ordering worlds from the most ideal ones to the ...

The full impact of IT in health care has not been realized because of the failure to recognize that (1) the path from availability of applications to the anticipated benefits passes through a series of steps; and (2) progress can be stopped at any one of those steps. As a result, strategies for diffusion, adoption, and use have been incomplete and have produced disappointing results. In this pa...

Journal based metrics is known not to be ideal for the measurement of the quality of individual researcher's scientific output. In the current report 16 contributors from Hong Kong SAR, India, Korea, Taiwan, Russia, Germany, Japan, Turkey, Belgium, France, Italy, UK, The Netherlands, Malaysia, and USA are invited. The following six questions were asked: (I) is Web of Sciences journal impact fac...

Policies from non-health sectors have considerable impacts on the food environment and in turn on population nutrition. Health impact assessment (HIA) methods have been developed to identify the potential health effects of non-health policies; however, they are underused both within and outside the health sector. HIA and other assessment methods and tools can be used more extensively in health ...
