Review and classification of electric load forecasting (LF) techniques based on artificial neuralnetworks (ANN) is presented. A basic ANNs architectures used in LF reviewed. A wide range of ANNoriented applications for forecasting are given in the literature. These are classified into five groups:(1) ANNs in short-term LF, (2) ANNs in mid-term LF, (3) ANNs in long-term LF, (4) Hybrid ANNs inLF,...

BACKGROUND Reappearance of low-frequency (LF) (+/-0.10 Hz) oscillations in RR interval (RR) after cardiac transplantation is indicative of sympathetic efferent reinnervation. We hypothesized that restored LF oscillations in RR in heart transplant recipients (HTRs) are linked to oscillations in muscle sympathetic nerve traffic (MSNA). METHODS AND RESULTS RR, RR variability, and MSNA were recor...

A neurofuzzy system is proposed for short-term electric load forecasting. The fuzzy rule base of ReNFuzz-LF consists rules with dynamic consequent parts that are small-scale recurrent neural networks one hidden layer, whose neurons have local output feedback. particular representation maintains the learning nature typical static model, since can be considered as subsystems operating at subspace...

BACKGROUND This is a commentary on the article laminoplasty versus laminectomy and fusion (LF) for multilevel cervical myelopathy: A meta-analysis of clinical and radiological outcomes by Chang-Hyun Lee et al. Here, the authors utilized seven studies to compare the efficacy of cervical expansive laminoplasty (EL) versus laminectomy and fusion (LF) to address three or more level multilevel cervi...

It is recently recognized that the ionosphere is very sensitive to seismic effects, and the detection of ionospheric perturbations associated with earthquakes, seems to be very promising for short-term earthquake prediction. We have proposed a possible use of VLF/LF (very low frequency (3-30 kHz) /low frequency (30-300 kHz)) radio sounding of the seismo-ionospheric perturbations. A brief histor...

PURPOSE To determine the magnitude of the homogeneous, LF(Ho), and the heterogeneous, LF(He), components of the long-term fluctuation (LF) in glaucoma suspects and in stable primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients undergoing short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) and to compare the magnitude of the SWAP LF components with those elicited by standard white-on-white (W-W) perimetry. MET...

Effects of orally administered lactoferrin (LF) on the cellular and humoral immune responses in mice subjected to immobilization stress (IS) were investigated. Here, we demonstrate that long-term IS induced significant suppression of cellular and humoral immune responses in CBAmice. The suppression was attenuated by LF given to mice in drinking water as determined by the number of antibody-form...
