introduction: today the consumption of animal protein has been allocated a special place in human nutrition. poultry cooperatives have an important role in protein production. given the significance of producing animal products and the capabilities that the poultry cooperatives possess in this regard as well as considering the macroeconomic policies of governments respecting developing the coop...

Learners sometimes have incoherent and fragmented intuitive prior knowledge that is (partly) "incompatible" with the to-be-learned contents. Such knowledge in pieces can cause conceptual disorientation and cognitive overload while learning. We hypothesized that a pre-training intervention providing a generalized schema as a structuring framework for such knowledge in pieces would support (re)or...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate the pursuit of achievement goals in medical students and to assess the relationship between achievement goals, learning strategy, and motivation. METHODS Two hundred seventy freshman and sophomore premedical students and sophomore medical school students participated in this study, which used the Achievement Goals Scale and the Self-Regulate...

Keyword search in relational databases has recently emerged as a new research topic. As a search result is often assembled from multiple relational tables, existing IR-style ranking strategies can not be applied directly. In this paper, we propose a novel IR ranking strategy considering query semantics for effective keyword search. The experimental results on a large-scale real database demonst...

ABSTRACT: It is commonly recognized that knowledge is the only source of core competence in the knowledge based companies, but the productivity rate of Knowledge Workers is always Low. Based on Knowledge Workers’ characteristics, in this paper, we seek to identify factors influencing the Productivity of Knowledge Workers, and then strategies present for improvement of theirs Productivity. Final...

A known limitation of the Probability Ranking Principle (PRP) is that it does not cater for dependence between documents. Recently, the Quantum Probability Ranking Principle (QPRP) has been proposed, which implicitly captures dependencies between documents through“quantum interference”. This paper explores whether this new ranking principle leads to improved performance for subtopic retrieval, ...

Search re-ranking is considered a typical thanks to boost retrieval exactitude. The matter yet isn't trivial particularly once there square measure multiple options or modalities to be thought-about for search, which frequently happens in image and video retrieval. This paper proposes a replacement re-ranking algorithmic program, named data processing based mostly on re-ranking, that reinforces...
