In order to answer scientific questions of interest one often carries
out an ordered sequence of experiments generating the appropriate data
over time. The design of each experiment involves making various decisions
such as 1) What variables to measure on the randomly sampled
experimental unit?, 2) How regularly to monitor the unit, and
for how long?, 3) How to randomly assign a treatment or drug-dose
to the unit?, among others. That is, the design of each experiment
involves selecting a so called treatment mechanism/monitoring mechanism/
missingness/censoring mechanism, where these mechanisms represent
a formally ...

Trends in Microbiology - Evolution of virulence: adaptive or not?
Progress in understanding the evolution of infectious diseases has inspired proposals to manage the evolution of pathogen (including parasite) virulence. A common view is that social interventions that lower pathogen transmission will indirectly select lower virulence because of a trade-off between transmission and virulence. Here, we argue that there is little theoretical justification and no empirical evidence for this plan. Although a trade-off model might apply to some pathogens, the mechanism appears too weak for rapid selection of substantial changes in virulence. Direct selection against virulence itself might be a more ...

Poor westom's religious blinders prevent him from reading what gets written. I certainly have written about wire impedance in this thread. But if westom was not hampered by religious blinders he would read in the IEEE surge guide that plug-in suppressors do not work primarily by earthing. They work primarily by clamping the voltage on all wires to the ground at the ... Read More

16–20) discussed the metaphor originally produced (independently) by Richard Hardison and Richard Dawkins, in which imaginary monkeys pound on a typewriter to produce a line from Shakespeare’s Hamlet . Using Hardison’s example, ‘To Be Or Not To Be,’ he tacitly assumes that every letter of the alphabet has an equal opportunity of being typed each time the monkey hits a key. If we ignore the five spaces in the phrase and discount capital versus lower case letters, the probability that the 13-letter sequence ‘tobeornottobe’ could be typed by chance is the inverse of ‘26 to the 13th power.’ However, it is possible to use a computer ...

Today's entry will discuss an increasingly popular, relatively new perspective on human economic behavior, and then later we will look at how this perspective has been used to invigorate Keynesian economics and attack the Chicago school. I will contend that part of the seduction of this more recent development, which is generally termed "behavioral economics", is its subtle promise of creating an elite group of cognoscenti which can "steer" the economy using command-and-control central planning methods. These specially trained individuals will be equipped to dispassionately observe the folly of other ...

Plaintiff-Appellant Rhonda Hendrix alleges that her son, G.P., sustained traumatic brain injuries when a child restraint system manufactured by Defendant-Appellee Evenflo Company, Inc., ("Evenflo"), malfunctioned during a minor traffic accident. Hendrix further alleges that those brain injuries caused G.P. to develop autism spectrum disorder ("ASD") and a spinal cord defect known as syringomyelia. The district court excluded testimony from two of Hendrix's expert witnesses that the accident caused G.P.'s ASD. The district court concluded that the methods used by Hendrix's experts were not ...

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
My Ap Psychology class had a huge argument about this, some said No saying only living things can learn as they have a brain and the computer only does stuff because its "Programmed" to do so. others including me said Yes because computers can be given AI (artificial intelligence) as found in robots and sattelites and in video games so that they know how to respond to certain things automatically. But now i'm confused. . . no you can just add software to it There are currently no comments for this question. * You must be logged into Answers to add comments. Sign in or Register .

The evidence for evolution, ranging from inferences based the fossil record to direct observations, is overwhelming. This page represents a necessarily brief summary, divided into 5 broad categories, with selected examples. Paleontology Comparative Anatomy Biogeography Embryology Molecular Biology Paleontology Paleontology provided some of the first evidence for evolution at the beginning of the 19th century, when it was noted that fossils occurred in a sequential order in layers of rock. Simpler organisms occurred in lower layers, while more modern-appearing ones were always found closer to the top. Because bottom layers of ...
