New techniques, both theoretical and practical, are presented for constructing permutation representations for computing with matrix groups defined over finite fields. The permutation representation is constructed on a conjugacy class of subgroups of prime order. We construct a base for the permutation representation, which in turn simplifies the computation of a strong generating set. In addit...

Distinct differences were observed in the biologic response elicited by the promoting agents croton resin and its active frac tions on the one hand and croton oil on the other. With the active fractions of croton resin, in initiation-promotion experiments, there is a high incidence of malignancy and a low incidence of tumor regression. Applied alone, croton resin gives rise to very few tumors. ...

Language models based on deep learning showed promising results for artistic generation purposes, including musical generation. However, the evaluation of symbolic is mostly low-level mathematical metrics (e.g., result loss function) due to inherent difficulty in measuring quality a given performance subjective nature music. This work sought measure and evaluate excerpts generated by from human...

We interpret a type of fuzzy controller as an inter polator of B spline hypersurfaces B spline basis func tions of di erent orders are regarded as a class of mem bership functions MFs with some special properties These properties lead to several interesting conclusions about fuzzy controllers if such membership functions are employed to specify the linguistic terms of the input variables We sho...

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Dynamic substrate changes play a key role in facilitating conduction delay and re-entry ventricular tachycardia (VT) circuits. Extrastimuli pacing can unmask functional channels demonstrated by dynamic delay, which may the VT circuit. We have previously developed sense protocol mapping, using short coupled single extras...

Despite their impor tance in assess ing the impact of pol i cies, out come eval u a tions—and in par tic u lar ran dom ized exper i ments—are rel a tively rare. The ratio nal iza tions used to jus tify the absence of out come eval u a tions include such asser tions as “we know our pro grams are work ing,” “they can’t pos si bly harm any one,” and “if they only help one kid they’re worth it.” Us...
