This study aimed to determine the effects of different acute creatine loadings (ACRL) on repeated cycle sprints. Twenty-eight active subjects divided into the control (n=7) and the experimental (n=21) group. The exercise protocol comprised three 30s Anaerobic Wingate Tests (AWT) interspersed with six minutes recovery, without any supplements ingested and following placebo and creatine ingestion...

Information literacy modules produced by academic libraries to facilitate the research process typically use the criteria of relevance, timeliness, reliability, coverage and accuracy to assess the various information resources undergraduate students use to write research reports. These same criteria are applied to the wide spectrum of research sources that may range from popular magazines to re...

Our approach to this problem was to use reinforcement learning with a function approximator to approximate the state value function [RSS98]. In our case, a +1 reward was given for every completed line, so that the value function would encode the long-term number of lines that is going to be completed by the algorithm. In order to achieve this, we extract features from the game state, and use gr...
