|Neural network pruning methods on the level of individual network parameters (e.g. connection weights) can improve generalization, as is shown in this empirical study. However, an open problem in the pruning methods known today (OBD, OBS, autoprune, epsiprune) is the selection of the number of parameters to be removed in each pruning step (pruning strength). This work presents a pruning method...

Aroniaberry ( Aronia mitschurinii ) produces small pome fruits that possess health promoting compounds. Management practices for orchards are lacking, since aroniaberry is a relatively new crop. Pruning an important cultural practice to optimize fruit yield in orchards. The response of established orchard pruning was evaluated over three years (2020 2022). treatments were as follows: 1) renewal...

Tree root pruning is a potential tool for managing belowground competition when trees and crops are grown together in agroforestry systems. We investigated the effects of tree root pruning on shoot growth and root distribution of Alnus acuminata (H.B. & K.), Casuarina equisetifolia L., Grevillea robusta A. Cunn. ex R. Br., Maesopsis eminii Engl. and Markhamia lutea (Benth.) K. Schum. and on yie...

Previous work in pruning algorithms for max" multi-player game trees has produced shallow pruning and alpha-beta branch-and-bound pruning. The effectiveness of these algorithms is dependant as much on the range of terminal values found in the game tree as on the ordering of nodes. We introduce last-branch and speculative pruning techniques which can prune any constantsum multi-player game tree....

Pruning and fertilizing chili plants can increase fruit production per plant. This study aims to determine the impact of pruning application inorganik fertilizer on growth (Capsicum annuum L.) used a randomized block design (RBD) method using 2 factors 3 repplication. The first factor was treatment (C) which consisted treatments: C0=without C1=with pruning. Factor II inorganic were : TSP (P) ad...

Whole vine (K(plant)) and individual root (K(root)) hydraulic conductances were measured in kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis Planch. var. chinensis 'Hort16A') vines to observe hydraulic responses following partial root system excision. Heat dissipation and compensation heat pulse techniques were used to measure sap flow in trunks and individual roots, respectively. Sap flux and measurements of xy...

Root pruning during early root development can optimize the structure of woody plants. To determine effects on tree peony (Paeonia suffruticosa), seedlings cultivar ‘Fengdanbai’ were subjected to varying degrees or different styles pruning. Various indexes analyzed, including anatomical root, vitality, activity levels antioxidant enzymes, and contents endogenous hormones their ratios. Comprehen...

Pare Plant is a type of horticultural plant originating from the cucurbitaceae family. Bitter gourd contains antioxidants that help suppress inflammatory response and lower glucose levels in diabetes. Cultivation bitter melon by using pruning use NPK fertilizer can increase production yields. Pruning on plants needs to be done order number flowers produced plants. macro nutrient needed able gro...

The minimax algorithm, also called the negamax algorithm, remains today the most widely used search technique for two-player perfect-information games. However, minimaxing has been shown to be susceptible to game tree pathology, a paradoxical situation in which the accuracy of the search can decrease as the height of the tree increases. Althöfer’s alternative minimax algorithm has been proven t...

must be the constant companion of very many of our readers. The amount of information compressed within its relatively small compass is amazing; it contains in general supplementary information in materia medica to Vol. I, microscopical, chemical, and biochemical methods of diagnosis, analysis and assay, and is a volume of extreme value to medical practitioners, pharmacists, analysts, and other...
