It is an open question whether the functional projections above the VP projection are the same, either across languages or within a single language. Based on the morphosyntactic evidence in Finnish, and following Baker’s (1985) Mirror Principle, the functional projections of the non-finite clause differ from those of the finite clause, although both types of clauses contain a VP projection. Thi...

Dopamine signaling occurs on a subsecond timescale, and its dysregulation is implicated in pathologies ranging from drug addiction to Parkinson's disease. Anatomic evidence suggests that some dopamine neurons have cross-hemispheric projections, but the significance of these projections is unknown. Here we report unprecedented interhemispheric communication in the midbrain dopamine system of awa...

In this paper, the inversion of a linear operator is tackled by a procedure called iterative shrinkage. Iterative shrinkage is a procedure that minimizes a functional balancing quadratic discrepancy terms with lp regularization terms. In this work, we propose to replace the classical quadratic discrepancy terms with adaptive ones. These adaptive terms rely on adapted projections on a suitable b...

Introduction: The main goal of SPECT imaging is to determine activity distribution inside the organs of the body. However, due to photon attenuation, it is almost impossible to do a quantitative study. In this paper, we suggest a mathematical relationship between activity distribution and its corresponding projections using a transfer matrix. Monte Carlo simulation was used to find a precise tr...

Through a series of studies, involving over 400 companies over 20 years, the University of Tennessee Sales Forecasting Research Team has developed a vision of world-class forecasting. This presentation will articulate that vision, and participants will leave with a framework for benchmarking their own forecasting processes. Specifically, attendees will learn: • What forecasting excellence consi...
