Nufferno Speed Test In this investigation we have used only the Nufferno speed test, which is designed to measure speed as distinct from general level of intelligence. It consists of 19 problems of the Thurstone letterseries type in each of which the patient is presented with series of letters and is required to add at the end of the series the letter which is appropriate to the sequence (Furne...

This paper presents a stable new algorithm for force/position control in robot manipulators. In this algorithm, position vectors are measured by sensors and then used in the control law. Since using force sensor has some issues such as high costs and technical problems, an approach is presented to overcome these issues. In this respect, force sensor is replaced by an adaptive fuzzy estimator to...

{ Methods are developed for design of linear tomographic reconstruction algorithms with speciied properties. Assuming a starting model with constant slowness, an algorithm with the following properties is found: (1) The optimum constant for the starting model is determined automatically. (2) The weighted least-squares error between the predicted and measured traveltime data is as small as possi...

Works conducted in logistics management mostly emphasize the importance of a ‘time compression’ strategy to develop a sustainable competitive advantage. At the level of the design, manufacturing or distribution of products to consumers, high-speed orientation is now considered to be a universal source of performance. Drawing from current developments in the French food retailing industry, the p...

Abstract:  The precision of conventional sampling designs is not usually satisfactory for estimating parameters of clump and rare populations. Many of fish species live in school and disperse all over a vast area like a sea so that they are rare compare to their habitats. Theory of a class of sampling designs called adaptive sampling designs has rapidly grown during last decade which solv...

Cognitive rehabilitation treatment (CRT) has been described in patients with brain injury, but it has not been attempted in cases of cognitive dysfunction without organic cause. This case report describes CRT of neurocognitive impairment in a 54-year-old female patient with conversion disorder (CD). She experienced difficulties with regard to speaking, motor function, and pain symptoms, which d...

Algorithms of reinforcement learning usually employ consecutive agent’s actions to construct gradients estimators to adjust agent’s policy. The policy is a result of some kind of stochastic approximation. Because of the slowness of stochastic approximation, such algorithms are usually much too slow to be employed, e.g. in real-time adaptive control. In this paper we analyze the replacing of the...
