A generalized ANN-based model for short-term load forecasting
… US utilities. Mean absolute percent errors (MAPEs) for 24-hour lead time predictions are slightly greater than 2% for all months. For 120-hour lead time (weekday) predictions, MAPEs are around 2.3%. MAPEs for 48- hour lead time (weekend) predictions are around 2.5%. Maximal errors for these …

Virtual metrology for plasma etch processes.
… achieving mean absolute percentage errors (MAPEs) of approximately 1:15%. The consistency of the results presented suggests that this level of accuracy represents the best accuracy achievable for the plasma etch system at the current frequency of metrology. Finally, a real-time VM and model …

Maternal teaching strategies and cognitive tempo in young children
The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between cognitive tempo (reflection-impulsivity) in children and specific labeling and focusing behaviors of mothers as they taught their children two problem-solving tasks. Two measures of cognitive tempo were administered to 44 …

Investigation of the role of CUZD1-STAT5 signaling in mammary gland development and breast cancer
In the mammary gland, genetic circuits controlled by the hormones, estrogen, progesterone and prolactin (PRL), act in concert with pathways regulated by the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family to control the growth and morphogenesis of this tissue during puberty, pregnancy and lactation. However, …

Electrothermal controlled-exposure technology
A technology is presented for exposing the contents of microfabricated cavities in a substrate. These contents are hermetically sealed until exposure is triggered by an electronic signal. The exposure mechanism uses electrothermal heating to rupture a metal membrane at one end of the cavity. The …

Chemomechanics of attached and suspended cells
Chemomechanical coupling in single eukaryotic animal cells is investigated in the con- text of the attached (substratum-adhered) and the suspended (free-floating) states. These dichotomous configurations determine behavioral differences and commonalities relevant to therapeutic reimplantation of …

Effects of semantic judgements and pair comparisons upon list differentiation
The present study investigated the effects of semantic and nonsemantic analyses of words on list differentiation (LD). It was suggested that the memory of when stimulus events occurred might be due to the storage of information about judgments made about words and that this information may be …
