Renal function during treatment with adefovir plus peginterferon alfa-2a vs either drug alone in hepatitis B/D co-infection
(2012)
Long-term safety of treatment with hepatitis B virus (HBV) polymerase inhibitors is a concern. Adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) therapy has previously been associated with impairment of renal function. Limited data are available ...
Uterine leiomyosarcoma and pyometra in a dog
(2011)
A seven-year-old entire female, mixed-breed dog, weighing 19 kg, was presented with a 2-day history of abdominal distension, reduced appetite and general dullness. Abdominal palpation revealed a large mass. Radiography ...
Layered evaluation in recommender systems: A retrospective assessment
(2014)
Evaluation of recommender systems has only lately started to become more systematic, since the emphasis has long been on the experimental evaluation of algorithmic performance. Recent studies have proposed adopting a layered ...
Layered evaluation for data discovery and recommendation systems: An initial set of principles
(2014)
This paper examines how a layered evaluation framework proposed for adaptive systems (AS) can be applied in the case of recommender systems (RecSys). Our analysis indicates that implementing a layered-based evaluation has ...
Revisiting evolutionary information filtering
(2010)
Adaptive Information Filtering seeks a solution to the problem of information overload through a tailored representation of the user's interests, called user profile, which constantly adapts to changes in them. Evolutionary ...
Robust far-field spoken command recognition for home automation combining adaptation and multichannel processing
(2014)
The paper presents our approach to speech-controlled home automation. We are focusing on the detection and recognition of spoken commands preceded by a key-phrase as recorded in a voice-enabled apartment by a set of multiple ...
Immune inspired information filtering in a high dimensional space
(2010)
Adaptive Information Filtering is a challenging computational problem that requires a high dimensional feature space. However, theoretical issues arise when vector-based representations are adopted in such a space. In this ...
Animal salmonelloses: A brief review of "host adaptation and host specificity" of Salmonella spp
(2013)
Salmonella enterica, the most pathogenic species of the genus Salmonella, includes more than 2,500 serovars, many of which are of great veterinary and medical significance. The emergence of food-borne pathogens, such as ...
Spatial Pattern of Glaucomatous Visual Field Loss Obtained with Regionally Condensed Stimulus Arrangements
(2010)
PURPOSE. To assess the spatial distribution of glaucomatous visual field defects (VFDs) obtained with regionally condensed stimulus arrangements. METHODS. Sixty-three eyes of 63 glaucoma subjects were examined with ...
Adaptive radio resource management in a sectored cell for broadband wireless access systems
(2010)
In this work, we analyze the performance of a multi-user sectored MIMO/OFDMA system under the limited feedback constraint. Dynamic radio resource management methods are used to a reuse-one sectorized cell in order to reduce ...
