In this paper I articulate a notion of constituency orthogonal both to classical and connectionist approaches. I shall consider three “structure-in-time” connectionist networks (Simple Recurrent Networks, Long Short-Term Memory Models, and Non-classical Connectionist Parsers). I shall argue that explaining compositionality by means of any of these models drives us to an information-processing b...

Few types of signal streams are as ubiquitous as music. Here we consider the problem of extracting essential ingredients of music signals, such as well-defined global temporal structure in the form of nested periodicities (or meter). Can we construct an adaptive signal processing device that learns by example how to generate new instances of a given musical style? Because recurrent neural netwo...

background: this study aims to investigate the patterns of bioaccumulation and depuration of copper in the selected kidney and liver of capoeta fusca. methods: the fish were collected between september and november 2010 from a qanat in birjand. they were exposed to two types treatments with copper (0.25 and 0.75 mg/l) for a period of 41 days. the fish under study were exposed to the above-menti...

objective: successful bonding of a dental implant to bone, which was referred to as osseointegration by branemark has been well documented. however, long-term prognosis of an implant depends on adequate maintenance and long-term care. an effective maintenance program is required to preserve the health of peri-implant tissues. several techniques have been suggested for this purpose but it is not...

Modern neuroscientific research help to solve the impotent challenge in curriculum design and teaching for enhancing students’ ability to organize information in a way that makes it efficient in response to an appropriate context such as problem solving and critical thinking via knowing about the mechanism of different type of memories especially long term memory. At first, we should to c...

conclusions the stereotactic brachytherapy for patients with circumscribed and relatively small size tumors appears to be a safe, feasible, and minimally-invasive treatment. results thirteen patients were male and 16 were female, with the median age of 29 years (range, 2.5 – 64 years). the median follow-up was 95 (range, 6 – 240) months. based on pignatti classification, 10 patients were at low...

introduction: stress is associated with neurological and cognitive disorders. it has been suggested that doxepin, in addition to its influence on the content of neurotransmitters, has probable neuroprotective effects as well. therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of doxepin on synaptic plasticity and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (bdnf) gene expression in the rat h...
