BACKGROUND Completing treatment for multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) may be more challenging than completing first-line TB therapy, especially in resource-poor settings. The objectives of this study were to (1) identify risk factors for default from MDR TB therapy (defined as prolonged treatment interruption), (2) quantify mortality among patients who default from treatment, and (3) ...

Affective states can change how people react to measures aimed at influencing their decisions such as providing a default option. Previous research has shown that when defaults maintain the status quo positive mood increases reliance on the default and negative mood decreases it. Similarly, it has been demonstrated that positive mood enhances the preference for inaction. We extend this research...

The default network is a system of brain areas that are engaged when the mind is not involved in goal-directed activity. Most previous studies of age-related changes in default mode processing have used verbal tasks. We studied non-verbal spatial tasks that vary in difficulty. We presented old and young participants with two spatial judgment tasks: an easy categorical judgment and a more demand...

Reiter’s default logic is supposed to reasoning on consistent knowledge; when inconsistencies or contradictions are present in a default theory, no useful conclusions can be extracted. In the past years, fragments and variants of the default logic are proposed to avoid or handle inconsistencies or contradictions. Unfortunately, the expressive and reasoning power of these fragments are strictly ...

Copula functions have become standard practice for pricing multi-name credit derivatives. Marginal default distributions are often chosen by using a simple deterministic intensity function. It is wellknown that this approach only generates default time correlation and, apart from jumps due to default events, does not generate correlation between the conditional default intensities, or the condi...

The aim of this work is to show how Prolog technology can he used for efficient implementation of query answering in default logics. The idea is to translate a default theory along with a query into a Prolog program and a Prolog query such that the original query is derivable from the default theory iff the Prolog query is derivable from the Prolog program. In order to comply with the goal-orie...
