Abstract In this paper, we present a new sufficient condition for the oscillation of all solutions linear delay differential equations. The obtained result improves known conditions in literature. We also give an example to illustrate applicability and strength over ones.

A new way of measuring generalization in unsupervised learning is presented. The measure is based on an exclusive allocation, or credit assignment, criterion. In a classifier that satisfies the criterion, input patterns are parsed so that the credit for each input feature is assigned exclusively to one of multiple, possibly overlapping, output categories. Such a classifier achieves context-sens...

Abstract The Beerkan method consists of a ponded infiltration experiment from single ring inserted small depth into the soil. Fixed, volumes water are repeatedly poured to maintain quasi-zero head on soil surface. According standard run, new volume is surface when previously applied has completely infiltrated and entirely exposed air ( t criterion). However, could also be exposition begins o cr...

Our visual system preferentially groups contour segments that not only have the same orientation but are colinear as well. Long-range horizontal connections are thought to play an important role in context-dependent modi"cations of neuronal responses. Since the topology of these connections shows a close relation to the perceptual grouping criterion of colinearity, we tested whether the statist...
