In 2018, an American biotechnology company developed a test that could identify if embryo created through in-vitro fertilisation would become person with low intelligence quotient. As the same approach be used to predict will above average quotient, such tests raise questions about reproductive choice and what sort of children prospective parents should have freedom create assisted technology. ...

In the domain of visual question answering (VQA), studies have shown improvement in users' mental model VQA system when they are exposed to examples how these systems answer certain image-question (IQ) pairs. this work, we show that showing controlled counterfactual IQ more effective at improving users as compared simply random examples. We compare a generative approach and retrieval-based use ...

In an age dominated by information, information quality (IQ) is one of the most important factors to consider for obtaining competitive advantages. The general approach to the study of IQ has relied heavily on management approaches, IQ frameworks and dimensions. There are many IQ measures proposed, however dimensions in most frameworks are analyzed and assessed independently. Approaches to aggr...

purpose: to compare acrysof iq and akreos ao aspheric intraocular lenses (iols) in terms of spherical aberration and contrast sensitivity. methods: thirty-seven eyes of 37 patients undergoing phacoemulsification cataract surgery were randomized to implantation of acrysof iq or akreos ao iols. three months postoperatively, best-corrected visual acuity (bcva), spherical aberration (with 4 and 6 m...

use the ‘‘handle,’’ likened to an open scroll, to steady the patch strip as it is loaded with aqueous antigens and applied to the patient’s back. The cotton tipped applicator can then be gently reverse rolled out of position once the patch test strip is applied. This method allows for decreased handling of the adhesive surface, increased stability of the patch and ultimately much less risk of a...

In direct-conversion orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receivers, the impact of frequency-dependent I/Q mismatch (IQ-M) with carrier frequency offset (CFO) must be considered. A preamble-assisted estimation is developed to circumvent the frequencydependent IQ-M with CFO. The results of a simulation and an experiment show that the proposed method could provide good estimation eff...

BACKGROUND The literature is mixed as to the relationship between intelligence quotient (IQ) and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptomatology in adult populations. Even less is known about the relationship in children who have been traumatized. METHODS Fifty-nine children and adolescents (mean age = 10.6) with a history of interpersonal violence were evaluated with respect to PTSD symp...
