The teacher-student (T/S) learning has been shown effective in unsupervised domain adaptation [1]. It is a form of transfer learning, not in terms of the transfer of recognition decisions, but the knowledge of posteriori probabilities in the source domain as evaluated by the teacher model. It learns to handle the speaker and environment variability inherent in and restricted to the speech signa...

illiteracy in studies on quality of life (qol) and self-efficacy (se) of diabetic patients has been ignored. illiteracy and diabetes have high rates in developing countries. the aim of this study was to identify the effect of literacy level on health outcomes. to achieve this, we studied health outcomes such as se, self-management behaviors and health-related quality of life (hrqol) in diabetic...

Using the technique of double high-speed photography method, we show that an external magnetic field triggers in GdFeCo domain wall motion with velocities up to 1.2 km/s. The velocity saturates increase driving field. Contrary earlier experiments on iron garnets, did not succeed detect any effect femtosecond laser pulses velocity, even if were strong enough reverse magnetization. Keywords: ferr...

Background: Rotavirus group A (RVA) is recognized as a major cause of severe gastroenteritis in children and new-born animals. Nonstructural protein 4 (NSP4) is responsible for the enterotoxic activity of these viruses in the villus epithelial cells. Amino acids 114-135 of NSP4 are known to form the diarrhea-inducing region of this viral enterotoxin. Therefore, developing an NSP4 lacking the en...

background: protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information re­garding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. the majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. most of the former studies focus only on interacting do­main pairs. however they do not consider the interaction...

In this paper, transfinite element method is used to analyze the two dimensional thermoelasticity problems. A comparison is made between the thermoelastic analysis results of the classical theory and theories with one or two relaxation times (i.e. L-S and G-L theories), for the half space problem. Governing equations are transformed to Laplace domain and then, node variables are calculated by t...
