Preparing to talk : Interaction between a linguistically enabled agent and a human teacher
(AAAI, 2010)
As a precursor to learning to use language an infant has to acquire preliminary linguistic skills, including the ability to recognize and produce word forms without meaning. This develops out of babbling, through vocal ...
Structure-activity relationships of monomeric C2-aryl pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) antitumor agents
(2010)
A comprehensive SAR investigation of the C2-position of pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine (PBD) monomer antitumor agents is reported, establishing the molecular requirements for optimal in vitro cytotoxicity and DNA-binding ...
Personal storage grid architecture : consuming cloud data space resources
(2010)
On-demand cloud applications like online email accounts and online virtual disk space are becoming widely available in various forms. In cloud applications, one can see the importance of underlying resources, such as disk ...
Efficiency measurement and decomposition for the Chinese state-owned commercial banks at the provincial level
(2010)
This study adopts a bank production function approach to the measurement of efficiency of the Chinese state-owned commercial banking groups at the provincial level from 1998 to 2003. Applying Data Envelopment Analysis and ...
Minimum component high frequency Gm-C wavelet filters based on Maclaurin series and multiple loop feedback
(2010)
A minimum component high frequency Gm-C wavelet filter structure is presented. A simple function from Maclaurin series approximation is used and the current-mode follow-the-leader feedback structure is employed. For the ...
On the use of discrete adjoints in goal error estimation for shallow water equations
(2010)
Goal oriented dual weight error estimation has been used in context of computational fluid dynamics for several years. The adaptation of this method to geophysical models is the subject of this paper. A differentiation-enabled ...
Mid-infrared spectroscopy of candidate AGN-dominated submillimeter galaxies
(2010)
Spitzer spectroscopy has revealed that ~80% of submm galaxies (SMGs) are starburst (SB) dominated in the mid-infrared. Here we focus on the remaining ~20% that show signs of harboring powerful active galactic nuclei (AGN). ...
Switching stable patients with schizophrenia from depot and oral antipsychotics to long-acting injectable risperidone : reasons for switching and safety
(2010)
Objective: An international, non-randomised study evaluated efficacy and safety of risperidone long-acting injectable (RLAI) compared to previous treatment. To investigate generisability of the European data set to the UK ...
