introduction: this study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of exercise and token‑behavior therapy on the negative symptoms of schizophrenic patients. objective: comparison of the effectiveness of exercise and token‑behavior therapy on the negative symptoms of schizophrenic patients. methods: this research was a randomized controlled clinical trial that was done on 45 schizophrenic patients, h...

In recent years, there has been a lot of research on building dialogue systems using deep learning, which can generate relatively fluent response sentences to user utterances. Nevertheless, they tend produce responses that are not diverse and less context-dependent. Assuming the problem is caused by Softmax Cross- Entropy (SCE) loss, treats all words equally without considering imbalance in tra...

We describe two methods for Japanese compound verb (JCV) extraction, based on synthesis and pattern matching over the Google Japanese n-gram corpus. We devise a number of filters to boost the precision of the corpus-based method, and evaluate the two methods based on a sample of JCVs occurring in varying frequency bands. We also investigate the distribution of JCV token frequency, and the type ...

A protocol for the reliable multicast of data to mobile hosts is described. A logical ring is maintained between all the base stations that handle the multicast traffic of the same multicast group. A token passing protocol enforces a consistent view between all base stations with respect to the frames that are considered delivered to all mobiles. The interaction of the reliable multicasting and...

The current study examined the effectiveness of a combined token economy and self-monitoring package with a youth displaying a major mental illness and severe aggressive and persistent disruptive behaviors. The student received points for lower rates of aggressive/disruptive behavior and ‘bonus’ points for accurately self-monitoring and recording his own behaviors. The results indicate that the...

The spectral characteristics of vowels in Modern Greek and German were examined. Four speakers of Modern Greek and three speakers of German produced four repetitions of words containing each vowel of their native language. Measurements of the fundamental frequency and the first three formats were made for each vowel token. These measurements were then transformed into log frequency ratios and p...

Recent research on anagram solution has produced two original findings. First, it has shown that a new bigram frequency measure called top rank, which is based on a comparison of summed bigram frequencies, is an important predictor of anagram difficulty. Second, it has suggested that the measures from a type count are better than token measures at predicting anagram difficulty. Testing these hy...
