Preference for bedding material in Syrian hamsters.
This study aimed to determine whether Syrian (golden) hamsters, Mesocricetus auratus, prefer certain bedding materials and whether bedding material can affect paw condition, body weight gain and wheel-running activity. In a first experiment, 26 male hamsters had access to two connected cages, each cage containing a different bedding material (either pine shavings, aspen shavings, corn cob or wo...
متن کاملOligopoly with Capacity Constraints and Thresholds
Abstract Extended Oligopoly models will be introduced and examined in which the firms might face capacity limits, thresholds for minimal and maximal moves, and antitrust thresholds in the case of partial cooperation. Similar situation occurs when there is an additional cost of output adjustment, which is discontinuous at zero due to set-up costs. In these cases the payoff functions of the...
متن کاملThresholds and Expectation Thresholds
(See e.g. [2], [6] or [18]. Of course p0(n) is not quite unique, but following common practice we will often say “the” threshold when we should really say “a.”) It follows from [8] that every {Fn} has a threshold, and that in fact (see e.g. [18, Proposition 1.23 and Theorem 1.24]) p0(n) := pc(Fn) is a threshold for {Fn}. So the quantity pc conveniently captures threshold behavior, in particular...
متن کاملPreference Thresholds Optimization by Interactive Variation
In order to customize the display of meteorological data for different users, we use clustering to group similar users. We compute a rate of similarity between the current user and all others in the same cluster. We use this rate for weighting users’ preferences and then compute an average to be compared with a threshold to decide to display this parameter or not. The optimization of this thres...
متن کاملFactors affecting mechanical (nociceptive) thresholds in piglets
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the stability and repeatability of measures of mechanical (nociceptive) thresholds in piglets and to examine potentially confounding factors when using a hand held algometer. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive, prospective cohort. ANIMALS Forty-four piglets from four litters, weighing 4.6 ± 1.0 kg (mean ± SD) at 2 weeks of age. METHODS Mechanical thresholds were measured twice...
