BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women, and the second cause of cancer mortality after pulmonary cancer in this gender. Radiotherapy is one of the major treatments, which locally controls the disease and prohibits in recurrency. Radiation pneumonitis is one of the radiotherapy complications, which usually occurs within 1.5-3 months after radiotherapy. As there is...

Lanczos and Ortiz placed the canonical polynomials (c.p.’s) in a central position in the Tau Method. In addition, Ortiz devised a recursive process for determining c.p.’s consisting of a generating formula and a complementary algorithm coupled to the formula. In this paper a) We extend the theory so as to include in the formalism also the ordinary linear differential operators with polynomial c...

where R, R', R" are the side-chains of the different amino-acids, of which only 20 odd molecular species have been isolated so far from the whole range of living organisms. It seems clear, therefore, that the distinctive properties of proteins reside in the arrangement rather than the nature of the amino-acid residues. Bergmann & Niemann [1936; 1937; 1938] have put forward a theory of protein s...

Several regularization terms, some of them widely applied to neural networks, such as weight decay and weight elimination, and some others new, are tested when applied to networks with a small number of connections handling continuous variables. These networks are found when using additive algorithms that work by adding processors. First the different methods and their rationale is presented. T...

Militarized versions of commercial platforms are growing in popularity due to many logistical benefits in the form of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) parts, established production methods, and commonality for different certifications. Commercial data and best practices are often leveraged to reduce procurement and engineering development costs. While the developmental and cost reduction benefit...

Embodied cognitive science is regarded as a bottom-up approach within artificial intelligence. It envisages the realisation and study of increasingly complex artificial agents. As a consequence, the research emphasised reactive agents, i.e., agents that always respond in the same way to the same sensory inputs. To reach higher agent capabilities, the research focus currently shifts from reactiv...

Abstract Background The prognosis for patients with Glioblastoma (GBM) remains dismal. most aggressive multimodal therapy (maximally radical and safe tumor resection, followed by the Stupp protocol oncotherapy) has yielded best treatment outcomes. Notwithstanding slowly prolonged patient′s overall survival, this inevitable recurs. An optimal of recurrent GBM is still a controversial theme.The a...
