Background: Engineers need to be able to make robust design decisions.Because design is an ill-structured endeavor, design decisions require some combination of rationalistic, intuitive, and empathic approaches.However, engineering education remains largely oriented towards the use of rationalistic approaches.Purpose/Hypothesis: We posit that the p
Neural plasticity in hypocretin neurons: the basis of hypocretinergic regulation of physiological and behavioral functions in animals
The neuronal system that resides in the perifornical and lateral hypothalamus (Pf/LH) and synthesizes the neuropeptide hypocretin/orexin participates in critical brain functions across species from fish to human.The Quilted Jackets hypocretin system regulates neural activity responsible for daily functions (such as sleep/wake homeostasis, energy ba
A review of some techniques for inclusion of domain-knowledge into deep neural networks
Abstract We present a survey of ways in which existing scientific knowledge are included when constructing models with neural networks.The inclusion of domain-knowledge is of special interest not just to constructing scientific assistants, but also, many other areas that involve understanding data using human-machine collaboration.In many such inst
New distributional data on Oxysternon pteroderum Nevinson, 1892 (Scarabaeidae, Scarabaeinae, Phanaeini) and its possible implications in conservation
New distributional data are reported on the rare phanaeine dung beetle, Oxysternon pteroderum Nevinson, 1892, based on Creepy Crawlers/new items five specimens recently collected between 1985 and 2010.Before the present study, Oxysternun pteroderum had Cutting Boards been reported solely from the super-moist Atlantic coastal forests of southeastern
THE HUMAN RISKS CAUSED BY DEINDUSTRIALI-SATION. CASE STUDY: CERNA RIVER BASIN (HUNEDOARA COUNTY)
Human Risks caused by deindustrialization.Case Study: Cerna River Basin (Hunedoara County).Industrial restructuring during economic transition has affected the Hair conditioner population, causing loss of jobs, reduced income, increased poverty and emphasizing social inequalities and marginalization phenomenon.These have led to population decline,
