The ultimate objectives of ongoing and upcoming neutrino experiments are the precise measurement mixing parameters confirmation mass hierarchy. systematic inaccuracy in cross-section models introduces estimation. It is important to secure a large decrease uncertainties, particularly those relating cross-section, neutrino-nucleus interactions, neutrino-energy reconstruction, order achieve these ...

Natural ventilation is gaining popularity in response to an increasing demand for a sustainable and healthy built environment, but the design of naturally ventilated building can be challenging due inherent variability operating conditions that determine natural flow. Large-eddy simulations (LES) have significant potential as analysis method flow, since they provide accurate prediction turbulen...

BACKGROUND Disturbed peripheral negative regulation might contribute to evolution of autoimmune insulitis in type 1 diabetes. This study evaluates the sensitivity of naïve/effector (Teff) and regulatory T cells (Treg) to activation-induced cell death mediated by Fas cross-linking in NOD and wild-type mice. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Both effector (CD25(-), FoxP3(-)) and suppressor (CD25(+), FoxP3(+))...

We surveyed 11 Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines for chemosensitivity to nitrogen mustard (HN2) in order to determine whether any simple correlates to cytotoxic response might be revealed. The lines tested varied over a 5-fold range in concentration of HN2 required to inhibit tumor cell growth by 50%. Drug sensitivity correlated neither with continental origin of tumor, growth fraction, presence of...

heart failure (hf) is a common disease with high health care costs and high mortality rate knowledge of the health-related quality of life (qol) outcomes of hf may guide decision making and be useful in assessing new therapies for population. yet little is known about qol of hf patients in iran. objectives: to assess health related qol of patients with hf with two different instrument and to co...

background and aims: iron deficiency anemia (ida) and beta thalassemia minor (btm) are the most common hypochromic microcytic anemias, and it is regarded important to differentiate between them. several formulae can be taken into consideration based on red blood cell (rbc) parameters in order to distinguish between these two disorders. hence, the present study intended to evaluate the sensitivi...

This paper examines whether a country’s stage of development affects its climate sensitivity. The paper begins with a model of agriculture that shows that the effect of development on climate sensitivity is ambiguous, depending on the substitution between capital and climate. To resolve this issue, the climate sensitivity of agriculture in the United States, Brazil, and India is measured using ...

When humans learn a new concept, they might ignore examples that they cannot make sense of at first, and only later focus on such examples, when they are more useful for learning. We propose incorporating this idea of tunable sensitivity for hard examples in neural network learning, using a new generalization of the cross-entropy gradient step, which can be used in place of the gradient in any ...
