The main limitation of the study by Danesh-Meyer et al. was neither discussed nor mentioned. The time axis was not taken into account. The functional change after an acute event such as anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) is immediate, but there is a delay before the anatomic changes take place. In this study, most of the patients with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAIO...

We conjecture (analytically) and demonstrate (numerically) the existence of a fine-structure above the power-law behavior of the mass of black-holes that form in gravitational collapse of spherical massless scalar field. The fine-structure is a periodic function of the critical-separation (p − p∗). We predict that the period $ is universal and that it depends on the previous universal parameter...

Methods for biological function recognition in silico appeared to be useful also for identifying characteristics of structure-to-function relations. The introduction of a three-dimensional Gauss function was assumed to represent the hydrophobic core in a protein molecule. The discrepancy between idealized "fuzzy oil-drop" and the observed one in real proteins appeared to be localized in the lig...

Recently there has been a lot of interest in using Statistical Relational Learning (SRL) models for Information Extraction (IE). One of the important IE tasks is extraction of temporal relations between events and time expressions (timex). SRL methods that use hand-written rules have been proposed for various IE tasks. In contrast, we propose an approach that employs structure learning in SRL t...

the concept of algebraic hyperstructures introduced by marty as a generalization of ordinary algebraic structures. in an ordinary algebraic structure, the composition of two elements is an element, while in an algebraic hyperstructure, the composition of two elements is a set. the concept of ?-semihyperrings is a generalization of semirings, a generalization of semihyper rings and a generalizat...

performance appraisal systems are affected by organizational social context. social context consists of tow factors, distal variables, and, proximal variables. distal factors include but are not limited to organizational culture, organizational structure, and, values. proximal variable categorize as both process factors and structural factors. in this paper the process factors were examined. th...

Temporal relations between events and times are often difficult to discover, time-consuming and expensive. In this paper a corpus study is performed to derive a strong relation between discourse structure, as revealed by Veins theory, and the temporal links between entities, as addressed in the TimeML annotation standard. The data interpretation helps us gain insight on how Veins theory can imp...
