This book is concerned with a cluster of issues: the distinction between perception and inference; the role of nondoxastic experiential states in perceptual belief and perceptual justification; the nature of epistemologically basic beliefs; and a famous class of counterexamples to reliabilism involving agents with clairvoyance or other strange cognitive powers. What these issues have in common,...

OBJECTIVE To propose a tool to assist trialists in making design decisions that are consistent with their trial's stated purpose. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING Randomized trials have been broadly categorized as either having a pragmatic or explanatory attitude. Pragmatic trials seek to answer the question, "Does this intervention work under usual conditions?," whereas explanatory trials are focuse...

A regional climate change model (PRECIS) for China, developed by the UK's Hadley Centre, was used to simulate China's climate and to develop climate change scenarios for the country. Results from this project suggest that, depending on the level of future emissions, the average annual temperature increase in China by the end of the twenty-first century may be between 3 and 4 degrees C. Regional...

In this report, we present the system that we built for task 2 of the BioCreAtIvE competition, which is based on the MeKE (Medical Knowledge Explorer) system [3] developed earlier. Our system combines the high-precis ion advantage of a pattern matching approach and the little-human-effort advantage of a sentence classification approach, and creates great potential for achieving higher performan...

Precis: Cities and towns played an important role in internal migration and immigration in Ireland in 1970-71. Gross migration rates were strongly related to estimates of the employment increases in the centres over the year. Canonical correlation analysis shows that the migration process comprised a "general" trend and three specialised aspects. These were related to different characteristics ...

To estimate potential impact of climate change on wheat fusarium ear blight, simulated weather for the A1B climate change scenario was imported into a model for estimating fusarium ear blight in central China. In this work, a logistic weather-based regression model for estimating incidence of wheat fusarium ear blight in central China was developed, using up to 10 years (2001-2010) of disease, ...
