AN ADAPTIVE BACK-OFF SCHEME BASED ON IMPROVED MARKOV MODEL FOR VEHICULAR AD HOC NETWORKS


Observations of Correlated Behavior of Two Light Torsion Balances and a Paraconical Pendulum in Separate Locations during the Solar Eclipse of January 26th, 2009

On January 26th, 2009, simultaneous observations of the reactions of two very light torsion balances (Kiev, Ukraine) and a paraconical pendulum cortech sonic-flo gloves (Suceava, Romania, 440 km away) were performed during a solar eclipse that was not visible at those locations but only in the Indian Ocean.Significant correlation between the behavi

Predictive Power Estimation Algorithm (PPEA)--a new algorithm to reduce overfitting for genomic biomarker discovery.

Toxicogenomics promises to aid in predicting adverse effects, understanding the mechanisms of drug action or toxicity, and uncovering unexpected or secondary pharmacology.However, modeling adverse effects using high dimensional and high noise genomic data is prone to over-fitting.Models constructed from such data sets often consist of a large numbe
