Neural network training targets for speech recognition are estimated using a novel method. Rather than use zero and one, continuous targets are generated using forwardbackward probabilities. Each training pattern has more than one class active. Experiments showed that the new method e ectively decreased the error rate by 15% in a continuous digits recognition task.

Fatty liver disease is one of the most common diseases in women with type II diabetes. While regular exercise can decrease the complication of this disease, it was not clearly identified. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of four weeks aerobic training on Liver Transaminases and some glycemic markers in women with type II diabetes.Materials and Methods: In this study, 20 patients...

As the Next Accreditation System (NAS) is rolled out, training programs will need to implement a process for continuous faculty development on the use of assessment tools. Reliable assessments of performance by multiple trained faculty are essential to demonstrate resident skill development over time. Yet, with increasing time demands on faculty, fullor half-day training sessions recommended by...

Training programs are apparently worth something because computer companies or services continue investing money to educate and train their employees. But, they must see some relationship between the costs of training activities and ultimate company economic performance. In this paper, we describe ECONOF, a multicriterion model with the software tool related. It was developed to help managers t...

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effect and relationship of continuous training programme on WBCc and psychosocial status of black African (Nigerian) subjects with hypertension. Methods: Nigerian subjects with diagnosis of hypertension attending the hypertensive clinic of Murtala Muhammed Specialist Hospital (MMSH), Kano, Nigeria form the population for the study. 217 subjects wi...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the primary motor cortex (M1) may improve outcomes after stroke. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of M1 theta burst stimulation (TBS) and standardized motor training on upper-limb function of patients with chronic stroke. METHODS Ten patients with chronic subcortical stroke and upper-limb impairment were ...

Blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise may be an alternative form of resistance training; however, a side of effect of BFR resistance exercise is acute muscle pain. Typically, BFR exercise studies restrict blood flow with a cuff continuously during the exercise bout, including rest periods. However, others have used intermittent BFR where the cuff is inflated only during sets. We performed two s...

BACKGROUND Creatinine (Cr) has been implicated as an independent predictor of hypertension and exercise has been reported as adjunct therapy for hypertension. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of continuous training programme on blood pressure and serum creatinine concentration in black African subjects with hypertension. METHODS Three hundred and fifty seven male...
