BACKGROUND Generating good training datasets is essential for machine learning-based nuclei detection methods. However, creating exhaustive nuclei contour annotations, to derive optimal training data from, is often infeasible. METHODS We compared different approaches for training nuclei detection methods solely based on nucleus center markers. Such markers contain less accurate information, e...

Patients expect physicians to be lifelong learners who are able to interpret and evaluate diagnostic tests, and most medical schools list the development of lifelong learning in their program objectives. However, lecture is the most often utilized form of teaching in the first two years and is considered passive learning. The current generation of medical students has many characteristics that ...

Reliability was established by trained faculty members wh...

Experiential learning is “effective learning resulting from active student involvement with an experience and subsequent reflection on that experience” (Camarero, Rodriguez, & San José, 2010:84). Techniques of experiential learning have been extensively used and studied in the context of marketing education, and constitute one of the most thoroughly investigated topics in marketing education re...

This study shows how experiential product attributes that are part of the design of new products can create compelling consumer experiences. Following processing-fluency theory, when consumers attend to experiential attributes (sensory or affective), they should process them fluently (i.e., spontaneously and with little effort); however, consumers should process functional attributes always del...

Objectives Relationship obsessive-compulsive disorder (ROCD) is one of the forms of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, focusing on intimate relationships. Identifying the mechanisms of ROCD can significantly expand our knowledge of the factors related to its development and exacerbation. This study aims to determine the mediating role of difficulties in emotion regulation and experiential avoidance...
