Any Learning Machine (LM) trained with examples poses the same problem: how to determine whether the LM has achieved an acceptable level of generalization or not. This work presents a training method that uses the data set in an incremental manner such that it is possible to determine when the behavior displayed by the LM during the learning stage truthfully represents its future behavior when ...

Design: Retrospective ex-post facto design. Objectives: To retrospectively review the management of patients with lateral epicondylalgia, and to compare self-reported outcomes to assess the potential benefit of manual physical therapy to the cervical spine. Background: It has been postulated that dysfunction of the cervical spine may contribute to the symptoms associated with lateral epicondyla...

In this thesis, a special class of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) is employed for system identification and predictive control of time dependent systems. Fundamental architectures and learning algorithms of RNNs are studied upon which a generalized architecture over a class of state-space represented networks is proposed and formulated. Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) learning algorithm is derived fo...

INTRODUCTION Ultrasound-guided (UG) technique is the recommended procedure for central venous catheterization (CVC). However, as ultrasound may not be available in emergency situations, guidelines also propose that physicians remain skilled in landmark (LM) placement. We conducted this prospective observational study to determine the learning curve of the LM technique in residents only learning...

aims: nowadays, the widespread use of new technologies and the need for more education and expense, force the educational and economical centers to use the new educational approaches. one of these approaches is e-learning. knowledge management seeks to increase the information processing capacity through innovation and creative power of human beings. this paper aimed to investigate the effect o...

the aim of the present paper is to define and study (ic)$lm$-fuzzytopological spaces, a generalization of (weakly) induced $lm$-fuzzytopological spaces. we discuss the basic properties of(ic)$lm$-fuzzy topological spaces, and introduce the notions ofinterior (ic)-fication and exterior (ic)-fication of $lm$-fuzzytopologies and prove that {bf iclm-ftop} (the category of(ic)$lm$-fuzzy topological ...

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled "Optical coherence tomography guidance for the management of angiographically intermediate left main bifurcation lesions: early clinical experience" [1]. In this article we reports details about our clinical experience with frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) guidance for the management of patient...

— Domain Name System (DNS) can be deployed in the network as a Location Manager (LM) for mobility management. The suitability of DNS as a LM can be measured on how successfully it can serve to locate a mobile host. In this paper, we developed an analytical model to measure the performance of DNS as LM for mobility management techniques with IP Diversity support based on success rate which takes...

INTRODUCTION HIV-infected children in resource-poor settings comprise a unique population who require antiretroviral therapy (ART) in careful consideration of social and structural barriers to compliance. Given these aggregate challenges and emerging research into "holding" treatment options, we investigated the efficacy of lamivudine monotherapy (LM) as an alternative to more complex second an...
