A Taxonomy of Machine Learning Techniques
Abstract: Learning is any process by which a system improves performance from experience. Training a model simply means learning (i.e., determining) good values for all the weights and therefore the bias from labeled examples. Machine learning (ML) is a sub-field of artificial intelligence that creates machines which exhibits learning capability and improve their performance from experience without being explicitly programmed. ML focuses on the creation of computer programs that can access …

Estimation of Process Capability Index Using Confidence Intervals of Process Parameters
Abstract: The conventional process capability index (PCI) is a measure of process performance whose value depends on the process mean (), standard deviation () and the specified tolerance. The point estimates of and are used to estimate the PCI. In this paper, a new PCI is proposed by utilizing the 100(1-)% Confidence Intervals (CI) for both and . This has led to nine possible estimates of PCI which …

Impact of New-Defined Criteria on Evaluation of Depth of Investigation for Radial and Transient Linear Flow
Abstract: The depth of investigation (DOI) is a fundamental parameter in many reservoir engineering calculations, whereas there is no generally accepted industry standard and evaluation method so far. Inconsistencies or errors will arise when unconditionally using various formulae to calculate the value of DOI. This paper investigated the key issues about DOI in terms of production rate, pressure cut-off value, especially the selection of evaluation criteria. New relations for DOI evaluation …

Effectiveness of Task-specific Training with Trunk Restraint on Lower Extremity Recovery in Stroke Patients
Abstract: Background: Stroke is considered as one of the major causes of impairments in activities of daily living. The majority of patients after stroke demonstrate excessive compensatory trunk deviation movement during activities of daily living. This compensatory trunk movement limits recovery of the lower extremity. Task-specific training is an effective intervention to improve recovery of the upper extremity. However, there was not much evidence about the effectiveness of task-specific training with …
