PURPOSE This study compared the diagnostic accuracy of a general grammaticality measure (i.e., percentage grammatical utterance; PGU) to 2 less comprehensive measures of grammaticality--a measure that excluded utterances without a subject and/or main verb (i.e., percentage sentence point; PSP) and a measure that looked only at verb tense errors (i.e., percentage verb tense usage; PVT)--in diffe...

Performance variation due to PVT uncertainty has led to an increased interest in adaptive designs. Traditional methods for adaptive design have used so-called canary circuits that mimic the critical-path delay of the actual design [1-4]. However, canary circuits require safety margins for possible mis-tracking and intradie PVT variations. They also have difficulty responding to rapidly changing...

a proper understanding of reservoir fluid phase behavior is the first crucial step in the development and production of an oil/gas field. this paper addresses the challenges and errors associated with the fluid sampling that may arise before, during and after the sampling operation. for this aim, dst and pvt data of exploration and production wells of a supergiant offshore gas condensate reserv...

Today virtually every consumer electronics device contains one or more integrated circuits (ICs) that require clock signal generation. This signal must present a certain level of frequency stability even in non-nominal conditions. Ideally, the clock generator block should exhibit a reasonably low frequency deviation when subject to process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variations, such as cha...

4 Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering & Sciences Publication Pvt. Ltd. Abstract—As the use of internet is growing day by day, the basic attributes of the user such as his age, his location, his preferences are of a great value to various business corporations. We are aware of the fact that there is some connection between the browsing behavior and the basic characteristics of the u...

the major reason for the prediction of thermodynamic properties of mercury lies in the fact that itsintermolecular interactions highly depend on temperature and density. internal pressure is a good criterion toinvestigate the density dependence of the interatomic interactions. because its physical base is a forcetending to close together the molecules that is intermolecular interactions, and as...

This paper studies performance of the parallel variable transformation (PVT) algorithm for unconstrained nonlinear optimization through numerical experiments on a Fujitsu VPP500, one of the most up-to-date vector parallel computer. Special attention is paid to a particular form of the PVT algorithm that is regarded as a generalization of the block Jacobi algorithm that allows overlapping of var...

There is currently no "gold standard" marker of cognitive performance impairment resulting from sleep loss. We utilized pattern recognition algorithms to determine which features of data collected under controlled laboratory conditions could most reliably identify cognitive performance impairment in response to sleep loss using data from only one testing session, such as would occur in the "rea...

STUDY OBJECTIVES A lapse during the psychomotor vigilance task (PVT) is usually defined as a response longer than 500 ms; however, it is currently unknown what psychobiological phenomena occur during a lapse. An assessment of what a participant is doing during a lapse may depict varying levels of "disengagement" during these events and provide more insight into the measurement of both a lapse a...
