Inferring dependencies in Embodiment-based modular reinforcement learning
(2005)The state-spaces needed to describe realistic--physical embodied agents are extremely large, which presents a serious challenge to classical einforcement learning schemes. In previous work--(Jacob et al., 2005a, Jacob et ... -
Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Young People from Black and Minority Ethnic Communities in the UK
(University of Hertfordshire, 2011-05)Introduction: The research in this report was commissioned by Crohn’s and Colitis UK with the aim of ensuring that, as a support organisation, its policies incorporate evidence-based findings to develop and increase social ... -
Inflammatory bowel disease in young patients : challenges faced by black and minority ethnic communities in the UK
(2015-10-02)There is strong evidence indicating that inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is increasing among black and minority ethnic (BME) communities. Despite this rise in prevalence, there is a paucity of research relating to ethnicity ... -

Inflation, expectations and growth in real money in the United States
(University of Hertfordshire, 2011)This paper aims to explain the change in the rate of inflation within the United States economy by following a new Classical–Keynesian synthesis view and by incorporating private inflation expectations directly into the ... -
Inflectional morphology and compounding in English : a single route, associative memory based account
(University of Hertfordshire, 2003)Native English speakers include irregular plurals in English compounds (e. g., mice chaser) more frequently than regular plurals (e. g., *rats chaser) (Gordon, 1985). This dissociation in inflectional morphology has been ... -
The influence of a heavy infection with sensitive and resistant strains of Ostertagia circumcincta and with Trichostrongylus colubriformis on the pharmacokinetics of febantel in lambs
(1995-06)Plasma concentrations of febantel and its major metabolites, fenbendazole, oxfen-dazole and fenbendazole sulphone, were determined after oral administration of 7.5 mg/kg febantel in lambs before and 28 days after infection ... -
Influence of active heat sinks on fabric thermal storage in building mass
(2001)There is an increasing drive towards low energy architecture and developing buildings that work with the climate rather than in spite of it. One technology in the area of low energy building design is that of utilising ... -
Influence of age on general practitioners' definition and treatment of hypertension
(1995)Recent guidelines on management of hypertension may unwittingly have focused some attention on the question of when treatment should start in younger patients. Although younger patients have a high relative risk of premature ... -
The influence of age on the variation among sheep in susceptibility to natural nematode infection
(2000-03-28)A longitudinal study of faecal nematode egg counts was made in naturally infected Scottish Blackface sheep over two grazing seasons to 75 weeks of age. Although egg counts were lower in the second grazing season the variation ... -
Influence of alcohol on the release of tramadol from 24-h controlled-release formulations during in vitro dissolution experiments
(2008)Recent warnings by regulatory bodies and a product recall by the FDA have generated much interest in the area of dose dumping from controlled-release opioid analgesic formulations when coingested with alcohol. It was the ... -
Influence of Alignment on the Scattering Properties Atmospheric Mineral Dust
(2008)We carry out an investigation of the influence of particle alignment on the scattering properties of mineral dust layers. Our modelling indicates that in addition to modifying optical thickness, the alignment can significantly ... -
The influence of Ammonia on the electrical properties of detonation nanodiamond
(2009-12-01)Detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs) are an interesting class of materials for sensing applications, but little is currently understood about their electrical properties. Here, aggregated DNDs are explored with impedance ... -
Influence of barely visible impact damage on post-impact residual flexural properties of hybrid Fibri Rock – Aero Eco-composites
(2018-12-15)This study experimentally investigates the effects of barely visible impact damage (BVID) under low-velocity impact and its influence on post-impact residual flexural properties of hybrid flax-basalt Eco-composites Fibri ... -
The influence of binarity on dust obscuration events in the planetary nebula M 2-29 and its analogues
(2011)The central star of the planetary nebula (CSPN) M 2-29 shows an extraordinary R Coronae Borealis-like fading event in its optical lightcurve. The only other CSPN to show these events are CPD−56◦8032 (Hen 3-1333) and V651 ... -
Influence of biogenic pollen on optical properties of atmospheric aerosols observed by lidar over Gwangju, South Korea
(2013-04)For the first time, optical properties of biogenic pollen, i.e., backscatter coefficients and depolarization ratios at 532 nm were retrieved by lidar observations. The extinction coefficient was derived with the assumption ... -
