The "illusory truth" effect refers to the phenomenon whereby repetition of a statement increases its likelihood of being judged true. This phenomenon has important implications for how we come to believe oft-repeated information that may be misleading or unknown. Behavioral evidence indicates that fluency, the subjective ease experienced while processing information, underlies this effect. This...

The entorhinal cortex (EC) is the primary site of interactions between the neocortex and hippocampus. Studies in rodents and nonhuman primates suggest that EC can be divided into subregions that connect differentially with perirhinal cortex (PRC) vs parahippocampal cortex (PHC) and with hippocampal subfields along the proximo-distal axis. Here, we used high-resolution functional magnetic resona...

Phase response curve (PRC) of an oscillatory neuron describes the response of the neuron to external perturbation. The PRC is useful to predict synchronized dynamics of neurons; hence, its measurement from experimental data attracts increasing interest in neural science. This paper introduces a Bayesian method for estimating PRCs from data, which allows for the correlation of errors in explanat...

From a “Western” perspective, International Studies in the PRC have long time not be seen as an academic discipline but as highly ideological field controlled by the Chinese state. This certainly holds true for the early period of International Studies following the founding of the PRC, when Marxism-Leninism and the ideas of Mao Zedong served as guiding theories. But after the decisions of open...

Changes in the substrate specificities of factors that irreversibly modify the histone components of chromatin are expected to have a profound effect on gene expression through epigenetics. Ezh2 is a histone-lysine methyltransferase with activity dependent on its association with other components of the Polycomb Repressive Complexes 2 and 3 (PRC2/3). Ezh2 levels are increasingly elevated during...

Compact and uniform NiW composite coatings filled with ceramic particles such as CeO2 were electrodeposited on brass substrates using direct current (DC) a well–designed pulse reverse waveforms (PRC). PRC exhibited the noblest corrosion potential lowest density compared to DC–electrodeposited coatings. Among all coatings, PRC–NiW–CeO2 demonstrated highest (?4.72 × 10?1 V) (5.32 10?6 V). It also...

Looking at the People’s Republic of China (PRC) reforms it is necessary to mention that they were not resulted from foreign experts or from other countries experience they were a result of a long term Chinese strategy. This strategy includes such aspects as economy system, social benefits national safety provided that PRC is open to international influence. This long term strategy has its main ...

This paper focuses on applying a neural network model to predict pseudorange corrections (PRC) for differential Global Positioning System (DGPS). The class of nonlinear autoregressive recurrent neural networks is chosen as the basic architecture. The neural networks are trained by an unscented Kalman filter due to its powerful capabilities for online parameters estimation. The paper first brief...
