Bioequivalence: tried and tested

Two drug products are considered bioequivalent 'if their bio-availabilities ... are similar to such a degree that their effects, with respect to both efficacy and safety, will essentially be the same'. 1 The bioequivalence of two drug products is generally demonstrated through a clinical study in healthy volunteers, the so-called bioequivalence study. If bioequivalence is shown for two drug pro...

Not Only What, but Also How Matters Introducing Procedural Utility: Not Only What, but Also How Matters

People not only care about outcomes, they also value the procedures which lead to the outcomes. Procedural utility is a potentially important source of human well-being. This paper aims at introducing the concept of procedural utility into economics, and argues that it should be incorporated more widely into economic theory and empirical research. Three building blocks of a concept of procedura...

Discrimination- Ive Io

This paper presents a new approach to constructive induction, Discrimination-Based Constructive induction(DBC), which invents useful predicates in learning relations. Triggered by failure of selective induction, DBC finds a minimal set of variables forming a new predicate that discriminates between positive and negative examples, and induces a definition of the invented predicate. If necessary,...

In this paper, we introduce a new touch sensor design, which we refer to as hybrid tactile sensor. It combines the simplicity of analog touch sensing, which is widely used in electronic touch screens and touchpads, with the ability of shape discrimination of the array touch senstactile sensors designed for robotics applidescribe the construction techniques of the sensor, its modelling, and shap...
