Another survey showed that there is a relationship between opiate dependence and some particular personality p...

The design and implementation of hybrid symbolic/statistical architectures is a major area of interest in current multimodal system development. Such an architecture attempts to improve multimodal recognition and disambiguation rates by using corpus-based statistics to weight the contributions from various input streams. This is in contrast to current architectures that assume independence betw...

post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd) patients have high scores on f and low scores on k scales of mmpi. the higher f scors than k scores show that they overreport their symptoms and problems. 128 subjects in four groups (32 in each group) were selected for the study. the groups included: a) out - patients combatants with ptsd (with mean age of 28) b) combatants without any psychiatric problem ...

The number of vertices missed by a maximum matching in a graph G is the multiplicity of zero as a root of the matchings polynomial μ(G,x) of G, and hence many results in matching theory can be expressed in terms of this multiplicity. Thus, if mult(θ,G) denotes the multiplicity of θ as a zero of μ(G,x), then Gallai’s lemma is equivalent to the assertion that if mult(θ,G\u) < mult(θ,G) for each v...
