Self-Learning Hot Data Prediction: Where Echo State Network Meets NAND Flash Memories
(2020-01-03)Well understanding the access behavior of hot data is significant for NAND flash memory due to its crucial impact on the efficiency of garbage collection (GC) and wear leveling (WL), which respectively dominate the performance ... -
Self-management for people with long-term neurological conditions
(2012-05)Although English government policy has encouraged the implementation of self-management programmes in services for people with long-term conditions, the evidence for their efficacy has been limited. People with long-term ... -
Self-management interventions for epilepsy in people with intellectual disabilities: A Scoping Review
(2016-10-01)Purpose People with intellectual disabilities (ID) experience higher incidences of chronic health conditions, poorer health outcomes, and increased risk of premature death. Epilepsy is 20 times more common in people with ... -
Self-Management, Psychological Correlates, and Clinical Outcomes in People on Dialysis for End Stage Renal Disease
(2016-04-14)The thesis that this dissertation aims to defend is: Certain self-management behaviours in End Stage Renal Disease are predicted by self-efficacy, patient activation, and psychological distress, and in turn predict clinical ... -
Self-medication with Novel Psychoactive Substances (NPS): A systematic review
(2023-11-28)Currently, novel psychoactive substance (NPS) use presents a challenging issue for authorities. To effectively tackle the use of NPS, a deeper understanding of the motivations of those who use NPS is required. Evidence ... -
Self-Motivated Composition of Strategic Action Policies
(2018-06-11)In the last 50 years computers have made dramatic progress in their capabilities, but at the same time their failings have demonstrated that we, as designers, do not yet understand the nature of intelligence. Chess playing, ... -
Self-Organised Task Differentiation in Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Groups of Autonomous Agents
(2012-09-27)The field of swarm robotics has been growing fast over the last few years. Using a swarm of simple and cheap robots has advantages in various tasks. Apart from performance gains on tasks that allow for parallel execution, ... -
Self-organising floor plans in care homes
(2020-06-01)This paper presents and discusses an optimisation approach applied to spatial layouts in care home building design. With this study, we introduce a method for increasing the floor plan efficiency using a self-organising ... -
Self-Organising Map Representations Of Greyscale Images Reflect Human Similarity Judgements
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2004)In this study we assessed a Kohonen network's ability to represent visual similarity between grayscale pictures and whether these representations were associated with human ratings af perceived similarity. We trained a ... -
Self-Organized Approach to Designing Building Thermal Insulation
(2020-07-17)Traditionally, the uniform application of thermal insulation is practiced within the built environment sector to achieve desired building regulation standards for energy efficiency. However, that approach does not follow ... -
Self-organized cooperative 5G RANs with intelligent optical backhauls for mobile cloud computing
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-12-27)In the near future, it is expected that mobile cloud computing (MCC) will benefit enterprises by improving network manageability and maintenance, as well as end users with respect to sharing computing resources. For this ... -
Self-Organizing Floor Plans
(2021-07-23)This article introduces and comments on some of the techniques currently used by designers to generate automatic building floor plans and spatial configurations in general, with emphasis on machine learning and neural ... -
Self-organizing particle systems
(2013-05-01)The self-organization of cells into a living organism is a very intricate process. Under the surface of orchestrating regulatory networks there are physical processes which make the information processing possible, that ... -
Self-piercing riveting : Properties, processing and applications
(Woodhead Publishing, Cambridge, UK., 2013-11)Comprehensively reviews the process, equipment, and corrosion behaviour of self-piercing riveting. Describes the process of evaluation and modelling of strength of self-piercing riveted joints, quality control methods and ... -
Self-piercing riveting-a review
(2017-09-30)Self-piercing riveting (SPR) is a cold mechanical joining process used to join two or more sheets of materials by driving a rivet piercing through the top sheet or the top and middle sheets and subsequently lock into the ... -
Self-Powered Dynamic Systems
(2013-07)This article concerns the concept of energy harvesting associated with dynamic systems. The particular area of work is the concept of fully or partially self-powered dynamic systems requiring zero or reduced external energy ... -
The self-practice of sport psychologists : Do they practice what they preach?
(2014-06)The maturation processes of applied sport psychologists have received little research attention despite trainees and practitioners having often reported experiencing challenging circumstances when working with clients. ... -
The Self-Practice of Trainee and Accredited Sport and Exercise Scientists (Psychologists): Do We Practice What We Preach?
(2010)Objectives It is widely accepted that reflective practice is an important component of continued professional development, and effective consultation, within sport psychology. Many researchers, and practitioners, appear ... -
Self-referential forces are sufficient to explain different dendritic morphologies
(2013)Dendritic morphology constrains brain activity, as it determines first which neuronal circuits are possible and second which dendritic computations can be performed over a neuron's inputs. It is known that a range of ...
