With open innovation, firms look for ideas and their execution outside organizational boundaries—for example, through collaboration with suppliers and customers, and sometimes also with competitors. Open innovation thus distributes the innovation process and can result in improved innovativeness, minimized innovation-related risks and external commercialization of intellectual property. There a...

Today’s digital era challenges organisations not only to follow the technological trajectories, by developing new technological solutions and/or adopting the latest disruptive technology, but most importantly to become creative and resilient organic systems that are open to changes and keen to experiment and innovate continuously. For this reason, organisations need to shape a creative environm...

Anxiety is an emotion characterized by an unpleasant manner of inner distress, often accompanied by nervous behavior. Anxiety is related to the particular behaviors of fight or flight responses. The amygdala, the insula and anterior cingulate cortex seem to be critical, and all three have been referred to as the fear network .The amygdala which plays a fundamental role in neural network of fear...

Background: Sexual reproduction affords the stands for conserving genetic characteristics and sequentially, genetic inconsistency may influence the capability to imitate. Materials and Methods: Research was conducted by subject in PubMed and other databases. Results: A significant number of genotypes have been related with infertility phenotypes and evaluation of precise genes in humans and mod...

Health workforce shortages worldwide are approaching crisis point, further burdening systems already struggling to meet demand. Doctor attrition has been identified as a major contributor this problem and therefore, the current study examined links between workload demands stressors, doctors’ commitment. Based on prior research key psychological theories, pathways were hypothesised that initiat...

Electromagnetic articulograph (EMA) provides movement data of sensors attached to a few flesh points on different speech articulators including lips, jaw, and tongue while a subject speaks. In this work, we quantify the amount of information these flesh points provide about the vocal tract (VT) shape in the mid-sagittal plane. VT shape is described by the air-tissue boundaries, which are obtain...

Learning in radial basis function (RBF) networks is the topic of this paper. Particularly we address the problem of intialisation the centers and scaling parameters in RBF networks utilizing classiication tree algorithms. This method was introduced by Kubat in 1998. Algorithms for the calculation of the centers and scaling parameters in an RBF network are presented and numerical results for the...
