We outline Tau, a practical and extensible hybrid theorem prover for first-order predicate calculus with identity. Tau is flexible and user-configurable, accepts the KIF Language, is implemented in Java, and has multiple user interfaces. Tau combines rule-based problem rewriting with Model Elimination, uses Brand’s Modification Method to implement identity, and accepts user-configurable heurist...

UNLABELLED Abstract Objective: This study investigated the effects of standard eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) protocol in chronically dependent patients. We propose that reprocessing traumatic memories with EMDR would lead to measurable changes of addiction symptoms. METHOD Twelve patients with alcohol and/or drug dependency were randomly assigned to one of two treatment...

OBJECTIVE Amyloid 1-42 (Aβ42) and tau in cerebrospinal fluid are currently used as markers for diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. Conflicting reports exist regarding their plasma levels in Alzheimer's disease patients. A meta-analysis was performed to statistically validate the use of plasma Aβ42 and tau as biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. METHODS Different databases were searched using the...

The spectral Tau method to compute eigenpairs of ordinary differential equations is implemented as part the Toolbox—a numerical library for solution integro-differential problems. This mathematical software enables a symbolic syntax be applied objects manipulate and solve problems with ease accuracy. explained in detail its application various illustrated: approximations linear, quadratic, nonl...

Two newly discovered properties of tau protein are reported; it is soluble in 2.5% perchloric acid and insoluble in 25% glycerol. These properties were exploited in the development of improved methods for the purification of tau. Treatment with perchloric acid did not alter the electrophoretic behavior of tau, and the products of the new isolation method were fully competent in the promotion of...

Abstract. It is proven that a class of Gegenbauer tau approximations to a 4th order differential eigenvalue problem of hydrodynamic type provide real, negative, and distinct eigenvalues as for the exact solutions. This class of Gegenbauer tau methods includes Chebyshev and Legendre Galerkin and ‘inviscid’ Galerkin but does not include Chebyshev and Legendre tau. Rigorous and numerical results s...

A method of calculating an autocorrelation function with extremely narrow peaks is described. This is done by including terms in the autocorrelation expression corresponding to delays at 2 tau, 3 tau, etc., in addition to the usual term with delay tau. Implications in the frequency domain are explored. Graphs of this autocorrelation function for a number of violin sound samples, including a two...

Left ventricular relaxation time constant, Tau, is the best index to evaluate left ventricular diastolic function, but the measurement is only available traditionally in catheter lab. In Echo lab, several methods of non-invasive measurement of Tau have been tried since 1992, however almost all the methods are still utilizing the same formula to calculate Tau as in catheter lab, which makes them...
