Machine learning: Trends, perspectives, and prospects
Machine learning addresses the question of how to build computers that improve automatically through experience. It is one of today’s most rapidly growing technical fields, lyin...
The Behavioral Consequences of Service Quality
If service quality relates to retention of customers at the aggregate level, as other research has indicated, then evidence of its impact on customers' behavioral responses shou...
Semiconductor Nanocrystals as Fluorescent Biological Labels
Semiconductor nanocrystals were prepared for use as fluorescent probes in biological staining and diagnostics. Compared with conventional fluorophores, the nanocrystals have a n...
Magnetism from conductors and enhanced nonlinear phenomena
We show that microstructures built from nonmagnetic conducting sheets exhibit an effective magnetic permeability /spl mu//sub eff/, which can be tuned to values not accessible i...
A Rating Scale for Mania: Reliability, Validity and Sensitivity
Summary An eleven item clinician-administered Mania Rating Scale (MRS) is introduced, and its reliability, validity and sensitivity are examined. There was a high correlation be...
Measuring agreement in method comparison studies
Agreement between two methods of clinical measurement can be quantified using the differences between observations made using the two methods on the same subjects. The 95% limit...
Development of a Rating Scale for Primary Depressive Illness
This is an account of further work on a rating scale for depressive states, including a detailed discussion on the general problems of comparing successive samples from a ‘popul...
Applied Regression Analysis and Other Multivariable Methods
1. CONCEPTS AND EXAMPLES OF RESEARCH. Concepts. Examples. Concluding Remarks. References. 2. CLASSIFICATION OF VARIABLES AND THE CHOICE OF ANALYSIS. Classification of Variables....
A Cluster Separation Measure
A measure is presented which indicates the similarity of clusters which are assumed to have a data density which is a decreasing function of distance from a vector characteristi...
UniFrac: a New Phylogenetic Method for Comparing Microbial Communities
ABSTRACT We introduce here a new method for computing differences between microbial communities based on phylogenetic information. This method, UniFrac, measures the phylogeneti...
