With an archival data set from Australian-based asynchronous video interview (AVI) vendor, we examined how employers implemented AVI features as a step toward understanding AVIs can be more optimally designed. The multilevel contained information about 2,550,105 responses 627,999 candidates to 52,623 questions, nested within 12,105 templates. We found that were often used for small applicant po...

Objectives: The present study was performed to investigate the effect of voice problems on related quality life in elderly with, without disorders, according genders by using Aging Voice Index-Korean version (AVI-KR).Methods: AVI-KR, a translated original Index (AVI) into Korean and verified for reliability validity, implemented with 50 people disorders (normal group) 76 (patient group). Statis...

The Acquisition, Analysis, Visualization and Imaging laboratory, AVI-Lab, is at the Department of Life, Health and Environmental Sciences of the University of L’Aquila. It was established in 1995 and, since then, the research activity is mostly centred on the study, development and testing of algorithms for signal acquisition and processing, image reconstruction, enhancement, filtering, analysi...

presence of patent or nonpatent grafts. This construct, termed a vascularization index (VI), was used to evaluate left ventricular function and anginal symptoms after coronary artery bypass surgery in 56 patients. Patients with an increase in local or total arterial blood supply (positive AVI) often had similar directional changes in segmental wall motion and ventricular ejection fraction. Pati...

Fluoropyruvate has been shown to interact with thiol compounds (Avi-Dor & Mager, 1956a; Peters & Hall, 1957). Its inhibitory action on the respiration of mitochondria (Avi-Dor & Mager, 1956b; Chari-Bitron & Avi-Dor, 1958) and of tissue celLs (Traub & Ginzburg, 1959) is presumably due to combination with thiol groups. We have observed that, during an incubation of the product formed between glut...

Approximate value iteration (AVI) is a widely used technique in reinforcement learning. Most AVI methods do not take full advantage of the sequential relationship between samples within a trajectory in deriving value estimates, due to the challenges in dealing with the inherent bias and variance in the n-step returns. We propose a bounding method which uses a negatively biased but relatively lo...

The present study aimed to investigate the properties of a promising bone scaffold for bone repair, which consisted of a novel composite of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) attached to a porous β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The β-TCP powder was synthesized and its composition was determined using X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spect...

BACKGROUND/AIMS The influence of TAS2R38 haplotype on the relationship between the perceived intensity of propylthiouracil (PROP) and the basic tastes of salt, sweet, sour, and bitter (quinine) was evaluated in the Beaver Dam Offspring Study. METHODS Genotyping was performed on 1,670 participants aged ≥45 years (mean age = 54.4; range = 45-84), and suprathreshold taste intensity was measured ...
