The Deep-Water Benthic Harpacticoida (Copepoda) of the Americas
Deep-sea harpacticoid copepods are poorly known worldwide. Due to sampling difficulties, these organisms are seldom captured. Recent investigation, however, has allowed for the discovery of many new species an...

Benchmark Problem for Assessing Effects of Human-Structure Interaction in Footbridges
Currently, construction tendencies tend to design flexible structures, such as footbridges, slabs and grandstands, due to the increased resistance of new materials and the regulation gap in building codes. The...

Knowledge refinement of an expert system using a symbolic-connectionist approach
In this paper we have shown how to solve a real connectionist learning problem with a symbolic interpretation for the refinement of scoring systems and risk evaluation systems. This is a significant issue not eas...

Interpretation of BP-trained net outputs
During the last few years neural networks have become increasingly popular. Their ability to classify and predict from examples is what has made them most interesting. Among the different types of networks the...

Methods for encoding in multilayer feed-forward neural networks
Neural network techniques for encoding-decoding processes have been developed. The net we have devised can work like a memory retrieval system in the sense of Hopfield, Feinstein and Palmer. Its behaviour for 2 ...

Acetylcholinesterase activity and somatostatin-like immunoreactivity in Lumbar cerebrospinal fluid of demented patients
Recent studies on post-mortem and brain biopsies have provided good evidence for a central cholinergic deficit in presenile and senile dementia of the Alzheimer type (AD/SDAT).(Bowen et al. 1976; Davies 1979)....
