OBJECTIVE This study compares the time-action profile of inhaled insulin (INH; Exubera) with that of subcutaneously injected insulin lispro (ILP) or regular human insulin (RHI) in healthy volunteers. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In this open-label, randomized, three-way, crossover study, 17 healthy male volunteers were given each of the following treatments in random order: INH (6 mg), ILP (18...

We optimize the diagnostic data from a fullresponse fault dictionary of a given test set. Compaction is done without loss of diagnostic resolution of a test set. We give an integer linear program (ILP) formulation using fault diagnostic table. The complexity of the ILP is made manageable by two innovations. First, we define a generalized independence relation between pairs of faults to reduce t...

Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) is a promising technology for knowledge extraction applications. ILP has produced intelligible solutions for a wide variety of domains where it has been applied. The ILP lack of efficiency is, however, a major impediment for its scalability to applications requiring large amounts of data. In this paper we propose a set of techniques that improve ILP systems eff...

El Inventory of Learning Processes (ILP) evalúa procesos de aprendizaje en el ámbito educativo. Se propone adaptar lingüística, conceptual y métricamente ILP al educativo local. emplearon muestras estudiantes nivel medio universitario. tradujo la consigna los ítems del inglés español se analizó su contenido mediante juicio experto, conservando 20 62 originales.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy of interstitial laser photocoagulation (ILP) with radioiodine in hot thyroid nodules. DESIGN Thirty consecutive outpatients with subclinical or mild hyperthyroidism and a scintigraphically solitary hot nodule with extraglandular suppression were randomized to either one ILP session or one radioiodine ((131)I) dose. METHODS ILP was performed under continuous...

We investigate solving discrete optimization problems using the ‘estimation of distribution’ (EDA) approach via a novel combination of deep belief networks (DBN) and inductive logic programming (ILP). While DBNs are used to learn the structure of successively ‘better’ feasible solutions, ILP enables the incorporation of domain-based background knowledge related to the goodness of solutions. Rec...

The individualized learning plan (ILP) is a tool that promotes self-directed learning. The aim of this pilot study was to look at the perception of the ILPs in United States senior medical school students as a way to improve their learning experience during their advanced practice clerkship. We conducted a survey of graduating medical students that contained both quantitative and open-ended que...

| In this paper we review previous work on the applicability and performance of Integrated Layer Processing (ILP). ILP has been shown to clearly improve performance when integrating simple functions, but the situation has been less clear for more complex functions and complete systems. We discuss complications when applying ILP to protocol stacks, the requirements of ILP on the communication su...
