Machine learning has been applied to many problems related to scene interpretation. It has become clear from these studies that it is important to develop or choose learning procedures appropriate for the types of data models involved in a given problem formulation. In this paper, we focus on this issue of learning with respect to different data structures and consider, in particular, problems ...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between learning difficulties (LDs) and behavioural and emotional problems of 8-year-old children in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1986 (n=9432). STUDY DESIGN A cross-sectional study. METHODS Teachers assessed children's behaviour with a Rutter scale (RB2) and assessed their learning with questions about whether a child had difficulties in readi...

The basic features of a special type of learning control scheme, currently known as repetitive control are reviewed. It is seen that this control scheme also induces varied interesting theoretical problems— particularly those related to infinite-dimensional systems. They include such problems as the internal model principle, minimal representation of transfer functions, fractional representatio...

We consider the problem of learning sparse parities in the presence of noise. For learning parities on r out of n variables, we give an algorithm that runs in time poly ( log 1 δ , 1 1−2η ) n( +o(1))r/2 and uses only r log(n/δ)ω(1) (1−2η)2 samples in the random noise setting under the uniform distribution, where η is the noise rate and δ is the confidence parameter. From previously known result...

nowadays, because of the special and pivotal place of women in the family and nurturing future generations; problems and issues related to women has become one of the main concerns of thinkers and intellectuals. jalal al-e-ahmad (1302-1348 ahs) and mustafa lutfi al-manfaluti (1876-1924 ad) are two of the social reformers and contemporary writers in the field of persian and arabic literature. ea...

tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis and is the primary cause of mortality in the world. m. tuberculosis strains are important intracellular pathogens causing infection in oxygen-rich macrophages in the lungs. the emergence of aids, declined socioeconomic standards and a lessened emphasis on tb control programs have contributed to the disease resurgence. re...
