In this paper we describe a method to reuse models with Model-Based Subgroup Discovery (MBSD), which is a extension of the Subgroup Discovery scheme. The task is to predict the number of bikes at a new rental station 3 hours in advance. Instead of training new models with the limited data from these new stations, our approach first selects a number of pre-trained models from old rental stations...

Chlorella vulgaris has been recognized as an interesting alternative feeding source since it contains a good amount of high-quality protein. However, the presence recalcitrant cell wall strongly affects nutrients’ digestibility, bioaccessibility, and bioavailability. The present study aimed to determine influence different pre-treatments (bead milling, extrusion, freeze-drying, heating, microwa...

The " time-asymmetry " attributed to the standard formulation of Quantum Mechanics (QM) was inherited from a reasonable tendency learned from Classical Mechanics (CM) to predict the future based on initial conditions: once the equations of motion are fixed in CM, then the initial and final conditions are not independent, only one can be fixed arbitrarily. In contrast, as a result of the uncerta...

background: the purpose of this investigation is to determine the efficacy of emotionally focused couples therapy (eft-c) on enhancement of marital adjustment in infertile couples. materials and methods: this was a semi-experimental study with a pre- and post-test design. we selected 30 infertile couples (60 subjects) by purposive sampling. couples were randomly assigned to two groups, sample a...

In this paper, we show that a pointwise symmetric pre-isotonic preclosure function is uniquely determined the pairs of sets it separates. We then show that when the preclosure function of the domain is pre-isotonic and the pre-closure function of the codomain is pre-isotonic and pointwise-pre-symmetric, functions which separate only those pairs of sets which are already separated are precontinu...

In two studies the role of biomedical knowledge in the diagnosis of clinical cases was explored. Experiment 1 demonstrated a decrease in the use of biomedical knowledge with increasing expertise. This result appeared to be at variance with some findings reported in the literature (e.g., Lesgold. 1934). but supported those of others (e.g., Patel, Evans, & Groen, 1989). In Experiment 2, three pos...

This paper was prepared for publication after the death of the author by T. Lewis, M.Sc. Professor R. A. Milne, F.R.S., has also seen the manuscript and makes the following observation: “ This paper should be published not only as an act of piety in Schott’s memory, but because it is done with intense care and skill and is throughout critical. Quantum physicists of the type who write the fashio...

By custom in the last few decades, the President's address has usually been clinical, but loosely connected with medicine or science. He has had free choice of subject, by tradition the tide is not disclosed beforehand, and no Questions are asked afterwards. All this gives him considerable advantage, I have therefore chosen a subject which I think is of interest to many People, that of the pict...
