Introduction. Let G be a locally compact, connected topological group (satisfying the second countability axiom). Let G* be a compact space which contains a dense subset G' homeomorphic to the space G and is such that G* — G' is totally disconnected. Then, Freudenthal has proved [l, Satz IX, p. 277]1 that the set G*-G' consists of at most two distinct points. Actually, Freudenthal's theorem eve...

This paper describes a front-end stage that has been implemented and embedded into instruments dedicated to a wide variety of electrophysiological mapping applications. Emphasis during the design phase has been put towards flexibility, simplicity, and performance in various environments.

Artificial agents trying to achieve communicative goals in situated interactions in the real-world need powerful computational systems for conceptualizing their environment. In order to provide embodied artificial systems with rich semantics reminiscent of human language complexity, agents need ways of both conceptualizing complex compositional semantic structure and actively reconstructing sem...

For various lattice gas models with nearest neighbour exclusion (and, in one case, second-nearest neighbour exclusion as well), we obtain lower bounds on m, the average number of particles on the non-excluded lattice sites closest ∗We dedicate this work to the memory of Ann Stell, beloved friend of OP and beloved wife of GS.

Open-ended or closed-ended case study design schemes offer different educational advantages. Anatomy and physiology faculty members who participated in a conference workshop were given an identical case about blood doping and asked to build either an open-ended study or a closed-ended study. The workshop participants created a rich array of case questions. Participant-written learning objective...

Background: Sufficient and thorough knowledge in early recognition of symptoms and proper management of ASD is of utmost importance to medical graduates in the initial years of their learning in medical school. Their knowledge regarding ASD will be helpful when they become health care professionals as it will be easy for proper management of ASD. Our aim is to evaluate and analyze medical under...
