Forecasting short term trucking rates
… and volumes. The architectural approach to short-term forecasting is a neural network based on Nonlinear Autoregressive Models with eXogenous input (NARX) models. NARX models are powerful when modelling complex, nonlinear and dynamic systems, especially time series. Traditional time series …

Sublexical, lexical and phonological short-term memory processes: Evaluating models of speech perception and short-term memory
… relation of speech perception to phonological short-term memory (pSTM). Contrary to traditional models which assume that sublexical processing necessarily precedes lexical processing (e.g., McClelland & Elman, 1986; Norris, 1994), several studies have demonstrated that patients may perform …

Outcomes of Southern Baptist Short-Term Missions among the Sukuma People and Implications for Future Short-Term Initiatives
… examines the realities from the receiving end of short-term volunteer mission projects among the Sukuma people of Tanzania by assessing their outcomes. The work also offers implications for future STM initiatives to assist participants in avoiding pitfalls and implementing an effective strategy …

Cuing to forget and short-term organization
<p>Directed forgetting refers to a class of experimental operations sharing the common characteristic of <i>not</i> requiring recall of some subset of the material presented in a memory experiment. As a research area, it has been plagued by a paradigmization which has hampered efforts to formulate …

Does Sulfide Affect Short Term Iron Oxidation?
… is often kinetically facile. The chief intermediary in this process appears to be reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by the concurrent partial reduction of dioxygen, although some reduced S species are known to react with Fe(III) directly. These overlapping potentials couple with the …

Real-Time Short-Term Travel Time Prediction
Real-time short-term travel time prediction is a critical component of the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and an important element of the Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS). Accurate and reliable travel time prediction enables both user and system controller to be well informed of …

Spatial Distortions in Visual Short-Term Memory
… genaue Position eines Zielpunktes auf dem Computermonitor nach einem kurzen Behaltensintervall reproduzieren. Dabei stellt sich heraus, daß ihre Erinnerung systematisch durch zusätzliche visuelle Landmarken verzerrt wird, die als räumliche Referenz dienen. Landmarken bilden Regionen hoher …

Short-term return reversion on the JSE
… most research on the JSE applies to the long term, this paper investigates mean reversion across relatively shorter periods. Thus investment horizons between 1 and 30 days are considered. This paper finds that the standard short-term reversal strategy can be improved upon by a double …

Towards short-term forecasting of ventricular tachyarrhythmias
This thesis reports the discovery of spectral patterns in ECG signals that exhibit a temporal behavior correlated with an approaching Ventricular Tachyarrhythmic (VTA) event. A computer experiment is performed where a supervised learning algorithm models the ECG signals with the targeted behavior, …

Timing of Therapeutic Hypothermia & Short-Term Infant Outcomes
… (HIE) can result in devastating long-term neurological morbidity and/or death. Current evidence recommends initiating Therapeutic Hypothermia (TH), as early as possible, however, research specifically describing TH timing in relation to short-term infant outcomes is limited with mixed …

Exercise Adherence Following Short Term Weight Loss Programs
… could exercise but this did not result in long term adherence. The results of this study demonstrated that participants do not typically continue exercise adherence following a short term weight loss program.

Short term planning and operation of irrigation systems
In recent times, with regards to rural water supplies in Victoria and most other parts of Australia, emphasis is placed more on efficient use of existing water resources than on new resource developments. This is especially true for irrigation systems. This emphasis is mainly due to limited funds …
