In this study, colorimetric calibration of scanner has been done via perceptron neural network with three or four layers by back propagation algorithm for colored polyester fabrics. The results obtained for random training samples are not satisfactory but application of selective training samples for L*a*b* or RGB leads to good results, with better results obtained for the L*a*b* method. On the...

This experiment aimed at studying the benefits of different types of training (visual, motor, or visual-motor), in comparison to a control group, on 5-year-olds’ performance in a task of writing cursive letters. The visual-motor training was shown to be the most effective training. The efficacy of visual training was clear at the letter quality level, and the impact of the motor training was sh...

My purpose in this paper is to describe the self-reported training needs and training information of advisors to self-advocacy groups for people with mental retardation. A telephone survey was administered to 118 advisors randomly selected, resulting in 90 completed surveys and a response rate of 76%. Major findings are reported in training topics, preferred training formats, hours and frequenc...

Aims and method To determine features associated with better perceived quality of training for psychiatrists on advance decision-making in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA), and whether the quality or amount of training were associated with positive attitudes or use of advance decisions to refuse treatment (ADRTs) by psychiatrists in people with bipolar disorder. An anonymised national survey ...

Pelvic floor muscle (PFM) training has received Level-A evidence rating in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women, based on meta-analysis of numerous randomized control trials (RCTs) and is recommended in many published guidelines. However, the actual regimen of PFM training used varies widely in these RCTs. Hence, to date, the optimal PFM training regimen for achieving con...

abstract   background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aerobic training with and without drug modification on some blood metabolites and substrates in women with type 2 diabetes. methods: forty-nine women with type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into four groups as following: training-full drug, training-half drug, no training-full drug, and no training-half drug. ...
