We present a polynomial-time reduction from parity games with imperfect information to safety games with imperfect information. Similar reductions for games with perfect information typically increase the game size exponentially. Our construction avoids such a blow-up by using imperfect information to realise succinct counters which cover a range exponentially larger than their size. In particu...

the aim of this study was to compare the effect of an aerobic exercise program with two different volumes on some risk factors of cardiovascular diseases in mentally retarded girls. 24 mentally retarded girls were randomly assigned to three groups: 1) aerobic exercise, 3 sessions per week for 45 minutes, 2) aerobic exercise, 4 sessions per week for 40 minutes, and 3) control. the experimental g...

Imperfect recall games remain an unexplored part of the game theory, even though recent results in abstraction algorithms show that the imperfect recall might be the key to solving the immense games found in the real world efficiently. Our research objective is to develop the first algorithm capable of outperforming the state-of-the-art solvers applied directly to perfect recall games, by creat...

Rarely does a police officer list providing services to the mentally ill as a reason for becoming a law enforcement professional. However, a review of case records illustrates the frustrating, and often tragic, outcome of police service calls for ‘‘mental disturbance.’’ A closer examination of these cases demonstrates the reality that police are usually the initial contact into both the crimina...
