INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN SENSORY PROCESSING SENSITIVITY AMPLIFY EFFECTS OF POST-LEARNING ACTIVITY FOR BETTER AND FOR WORSE

Individual differences in sensory processing sensitivity amplify effects of post-learning activity for better and for worse

Abstract Sensory processing sensitivity (SPS) is a biologically-based trait associated with greater reactivity to both positive and negative environments.Recent studies suggest that the activity following learning can support or hinder memory retention.Here, we employed a within-subject experiment to examine whether and how individual differences i

Reverse engineering the Gut-Brain Axis and microbiome-metabolomics for symbiotic/pathogenic balance in neurodegenerative diseases

Deciphering the molecular communications along the gut-brain axis click here can help in understanding the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases and exploiting the gut microbiome for therapeutics.However, gut microbes and their metabolites have a multifaceted role in mediating both brain physiology and neurodegenerative pathology.There is a

Instance-Level Embedding Adaptation for Few-Shot Learning

Few-shot learning aims to recognize novel categories from just a few labeled instances.Existing metric learning-based approaches perform classifications by nearest neighbor search in the embedding space.The embedding function is a deep neural network and usually shared by all novel categories.However, these brute approaches lack a fast adaptation m

Experimental study of the long-term shortening of reinforced concrete columns under maintaining concentric axial load

This paper presents the results of an experimental study to measure the shortening read more of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under long-term maintaining concentric axial load.Long-term axial deformation due to shrinkage and creep of the concrete were recorded beside deformation due to mechanical load.Eight RC cylinder - columns (content of rein
