Rasmussen encephalitis: complementary role of multitechnique neuroimaging.
Rasmussen encephalitis is a chronic, progressive inflammation of the brain of unknown origin. Early diagnosis and treatment with immunoactive agents and/or hemispherectomy are sought to prevent the progressive cognitive decline that accompanies this disease. Combined anatomic and functional neuroimaging may serve to focus the diagnostic workup and to hasten brain biopsy for definitive diagnosis...
متن کاملWhen does abstraction help?
Abstraction is a leading technique for coping with large state spaces. Abstraction over-approximates the transitions of the original system or the automaton that models it and may introduce nondeterminism. In applications where determinism is essential, we say that an abstraction function is helpful if, after determining and minimizing the abstract automaton, we end up with fewer states than th...
متن کاملRandomization Does Not Help Much, Comparability Does
According to R.A. Fisher, randomization "relieves the experimenter from the anxiety of considering innumerable causes by which the data may be disturbed." Since, in particular, it is said to control for known and unknown nuisance factors that may considerably challenge the validity of a result, it has become very popular. This contribution challenges the received view. First, looking for quanti...
متن کاملDoes communication help people coordinate?
Theoretical and experimental investigations have consistently demonstrated that collective performance in a variety of tasks can be significantly improved by allowing communication. We present the results of the first experiment systematically investigating the value of communication in networked consensus. The goal of all tasks in our experiments is for subjects to reach global consensus, even...
متن کاملUnlabeled Data Does Provably Help
A fully supervised learner needs access to correctly labeled examples whereas a semi-supervised learner has access to examples part of which are labeled and part of which are not. The hope is that a large collection of unlabeled examples significantly reduces the need for labeled-ones. It is widely believed that this reduction of “label complexity” is marginal unless the hidden target concept a...
