Learning How to Combine Sensory-Motor Functions Into a Robust Behavior
This article describes a system, called Robel, for defining a robot controller that learns from experience very robust ways of performing a high-level task such as “navigate to”.

Sleep and Menstrual-Related Disorders
There are few studies of sleep in menstrual-related disorders. Preliminary evidence indicates subtle differences in sleep and circadian regulation in women with severe premenstrual syndrome, and increased subjective sleepiness in…

High Electromechanical Performance of Electroelastomers Based on Interpenetrating Polymer Networks
The electromechanical performance of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN) in which one elastomer network is under high tension balanced by compression of the second network, were investigated.

Dynamic Intention Structures I: a Theory of Intention Representation
The paper builds on ideas from dynamic logic to present a solution to the representation and evolution of agent intentions involving reference to incompletely specified and, possibly, mutually dependent intentions,…

Extracting Question/Answer Pairs in Multi-party Meetings
In this paper we introduce a new task for multi-party meetings: extracting question/answer pairs. We propose a method based on discriminative classification of individual sentences as questions and answers via…

Predictors of 12-Month Outcome in Smokers Who Received Bupropion Sustained-Release for Smoking Cessation
These results indicate the presence of a substantial amount of variation in outcome following treatment with both dosages of bupropion SR, with substantial cost consequences.

Cortical Processing of Respiratory Afferent Stimuli During Sleep in Children with the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Cortical processing of respiratory afferent information can be tested by measuring respiratory-related evoked potentials (RREPs). We hypothesized that children with OSAS have blunted RREP responses compared to normal children during…

Fast Parallel Spiral Chemical Shift Imaging at 3T Using Iterative Sense Reconstruction
Spiral chemical shift imaging (CSI) is a fast CSI technique that speeds up the data acquisition in comparison to conventional phase-encoded CSI by sampling the data while oscillating gradients are…

On the Sheet-Like Nature of 150 Km (F1) Radar Echoes
This finding is used to infer that plasma density (N) must be enhanced within the sheet-like region, and that FAI could be generated by an interchange instability, driven by a…

The SRI24 Multi-Channel Brain Atlas: Construction and Applications
We present a new standard atlas of the human brain based on magnetic resonance images. The atlas was generated using unbiased population registration from high-resolution images obtained by multichannel-coil acquisition…

Constraint Refinement for Online Verifiable Cross-Layer System Adaptation
We present a novel approach to developing cross-layer optimization for resource limited real-time distributed systems, based on a constraint refinement technique combined with formal specification and feedback from system implementation.

Field Desorption Ion Source Development for Neutron Generators
A new approach to deuterium ion sources for deuterium-tritium neutron generators is being developed. The source is based upon the field desorption of deuterium from the surfaces of metal tips.
