Hybrid systems for constraint-based spatial reasoning - Parikh, Jo Ann (Machine Intelligence and Pattern Recognition, 1994)
Constraint-based spatial reasoning problems frequently arise in the area of military mission planning. In this domain, mission planners employ complex criteria, which may include numeric and optimization constraints in addition to logical constraints and rules, to develop engineering construction and resource deployment plans. Automated planning aid systems for the military must have the capability to represent the various types of constraints used in human decision-making and must be able to provide efficient and optimal or near optimal solutions to the resulting constraint satisfaction problems. This paper describes a methodology for transforming constraint satisfaction problems into nonlinear optimization problems and for solving the resulting optimization problems using a hybrid neural network/genetic algorithm procedure. The method is applied to illustrative problems which employ different types of constraints for determination of future construction sites. The results of the experiments demonstrate the potential of this methodology for finding feasible and optimal solutions to nonlinear optimization problems. © 1994, Elsevier B.V.

Evaluation of the fractal dimension as a pattern recognition feature using neural networks - Daponte, John S; Parikh, Jo Ann; Decker, James; Vitale, Joseph N (Proceedings of SPIE, 1993)
In the past fractal dimension has often been computed using a stochastic approach based on a random walk process, which has been found to be very time consuming. More recently, mathematical morphology has been used to compute the fractal dimension in a more timely fashion. This paper describes how the fractal dimension computed using mathematical morphology can be used in the texture analysis of ultrasonic imagery. The discriminatory ability of the fractal dimension as a pattern recognition feature is evaluated and compared to more traditional parameters. This analysis includes comparisons with statistical features in which each parameter is treated as an independent variable and in which interactions between those variables are evaluated. Pattern recognition techniques include Stepwise Discriminant Analysis, Linear Discriminant Analysis, and Nearest Neighbor Analyisis in addition to Backpropagation Neural Network Classifiers. Our results identify the fractal dimension as one of the most important parameters for distinguishing between normal and abnormal livers. In this study, consisting of 186 images, a significant statistical difference was found for both the mean and standard deviation of the fractal dimension between the normal and abnormal groups using parametric and nonparametric statistical techniques. © 1993 SPIE.

Neural network solutions to logic programs with geometric constraints - Parikh, Jo Ann; Werkheiser, Anne; Subrahmanian, V S (Proceedings of SPIE, 1993)
Hybrid knowledge bases (HKBs), proposed by Nerode and Subrahmanian, provide a uniform theoretical framework for dealing with the mixed data types and multiple reasoning modes required for solving logical deployment problems. Algorithms based on mixed integer linear programming techniques have been developed for the syntactic subset of HKBs corresponding to function-free Prolog-like logic programs. In this study, we examine the ability of neural networks to solve a more comprehensive set of problems expressed within the hybrid knowledge base framework. The objective of this research is to design and implement a nonlinear optimization procedure for solving extended logic programs with neural networks. We focus upon two types of extensions which are typically required in the formulation of logical deployment problems. The first type of extension, which we shall refer to as a Type I extension, consists of embedding numerical and geometric constraints into logic programs. The second type of extension, which we shall call a Type II extension, consists of incorporating optimization problems into logic clauses. © 1993 SPIE. All rights reserved.

Selective detection of linear features in geological remote sensing data - Parikh, Jo Ann; DaPonte, John S.; DiNicola, Emily G.; Pedersen, Robert A. (Proceedings of SPIE, 1992)
One of the major problems in the development of computer- A ssisted systems for geologic mapping is how to individualize the system to meet user needs. Ideally, the system should be responsive to specifications of desired types of output structures. Also the system should be able to incorporate the user's knowledge of regional characteristics into the feature extraction/selection and classification components. Automatic techniques for classification of remote sensing data typically require relatively large, labeled training sets which are well-organized with respect to the desired mapping between input and output patterns. The present paper focuses on the feature extraction/selection component of the system. Kohonen self-organizing feature maps in conjunction with image processing procedures for linear feature extraction are used for explorative data analysis, feature selection, and construction of exemplar patterns. The results of training Kohonen feature maps with different pattern sets and different feature combinations provide insight into the nature of pattern relationships which enables the user to develop sets of positive and negative training patterns for the classification component. © 1992 SPIE.

Comparison of sinusoidal perceptron with multilayer classical perceptron - Karimi, B.; Baradaran, T.; Ashenayi, Kaveh; Vogh, James (Applications of Optical Engineering: Proceedings of OE/Midwest '90, 1991)
A new multi-threshold Perceptron capable of handling both binary and analog input is presented and discussed. The modified Perceptron replaces the sigmoid function with sinusoidal function. A computer program has been developed to simulate behavior of a network utilizing the modified Perceptron. Both XOR and Parity Check problems were solved using a single-layer network utilizing this modified Perceptron. Based on the results obtained from the simulation the modified Perceptron is capable of solving problems (such as XOR) that can not be solved using a single-layer of the classical Perceptron. Also a network utilizing this modified Perceptron requires fewer number of iterations to converge to a solution than that of a multi-layer Perceptron network using back propagation. 1.

Detection of liver metastisis using the backpropagation algorithm and linear discriminant analysis - Daponte, John S; Parikh, Jo Ann; Katz, David A (Applications of Artificial Neural Networks II, 1991)
The purpose of this study was to compare the classification capabilities of the backpropagation algorithm and linear discriminant analysis for detecting liver metastisis using image texture features obtained from ultrasonic images of the liver. Twenty-one quantitative parameters were obtained from 134 regions of interest of equal size. The images were collected by the same radiologist on the same imager with the controls adjusted for variations in patient body size so as to produce images of consistent quality. Quantitative features were divided so that 13 were first-order statistics, 6 were second-order statistics, and 2 were image gradient parameters. The same features were processed by both the backpropagation algorithm and linear discriminant analysis using `jack-knife'' testing and the results of each computer- generated classification was compared to the supplied diagnosis in an effort to determine which method could best identify patterns. For this particular application, the backpropagation neural network was found to have slightly superior classification results (87) than linear discriminant analysis (83).

Classification of ultrasonic image texture by statistical discriminant analysis and neural networks - Daponte, John S; Sherman, Porter (Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics, 1991)
In this paper the ability of two common statistical discriminant analysis procedures are compared with two commercial neural network software packages. The major objective of this study was to determine which of the procedures could best discriminate between normal and abnormal ultrasonic liver textures. The same set of features were input into both statistical discriminant analysis procedures and both neural network models. Preliminary results have found the restricted Coulomb Energy (RCE) neural network model to have a testing accuracy of 90.6% which is approximately 10% better than any of the other techniques investigated. © 1991.

Comparison of backpropagation neural networks and statistical techniques for analysis of geological features in Landsat imagery - Parikh, Jo Ann; Daponte, John S; Damodaran, Meledath; Karageorgiou, Angelos; Podaras, Petros (Applications of Artificial Neural Networks II, 1991)
Backpropagation neural networks have been developed for detection of geological lineaments in the Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery of the Canadian Shield using edge images as input and digitized lineament maps as the desired output. Lineament detection is a challenging problem for traditional image processing and pattern recognition techniques. Many linear features observable in geological image data do not represent lineaments, and the presence and extent of lineaments must be inferred from contextual information. In order to compare the ability of neural networks and conventional classifiers to recognize lineaments prior to performing edge/line element grouping operations, various gradient and curvature features are extracted from the image data set. Selected features from this group formed the inputs to backpropagation neural networks, linear discriminant classifiers, and nearest-neighbor classifiers. The neural network results were compared with the results obtained using conventional classifiers for sample training and test sets. The trained neural network was then applied to the edge image to mask out those edge points which had been classified as non- lineament points.

Application of neural networks to pattern recognition problems in remote sensing and medical imagery - Parikh, Jo Ann; DaPonte, John S.; Damodaran, Meledath; Sherman, Porter (Applications of Artificial Neural Networks, 1990)
The primary objective of this research is the development and testing of neural network models for two fundamental computer vision tasks: edge/line detection and texture analysis. In order to test the ability of the neural network models to detect patterns in images we used both remote sensing data and medical imagery. Neural network models for edge and line detection were used to detect geological lineaments in Landsat data. Neural network models for the analysis of image texture variations were used on ultrasonic images to distinguish patients with normal liver scans from patients with diffuse liver disease. 1.

Multiplex developmental disorders: the role of communication in the construction of a self - Paul, Rhea; Cohen, Donald J.; Klin, Ami; Volkmar, Fred R. (Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 1999)
This article discusses the integration of various aspects of the child's development, particularly the development of language and communication and the way in which these developments interact to enable the child to construct a coherent sense of self. Multiplex developmental disorder is presented as an example of a disorder that affects several of these crucial strands of development. Recent research and controversies regarding the diagnostic descriptions of multiplex and other pervasive developmental disorders are presented. This discussion is used to illustrate the ways in which such disorders affect not only the individual aspects of development, but the child's ability to form a cohesive sense of self. The implications of these difficulties in self-definition for treating children with disorders that affect a variety of aspects of development are also discussed.

Temperament in late talkers - Paul, Rhea; Kellogg, Loretta (Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 1997)
This study examines the temperamental characteristics of children who were identified at age two as being slow in expressive language development, and those of peers with normal language history. When the children were in first grade (approximately age six), parents and clinicians rated subjects' temperamental characteristics, using a standardized temperament assessment instrument. Subjects with a history of slow expressive language development were rated significantly lower on Approach/Withdrawal-indicating shyness, aloofness, or reduced outgoingness-than peers with normal language history. Approach/Withdrawal scores were significantly correlated with average sentence length in spontaneous speech, and this measure also predicted Approach/Withdrawal scores in regression analyses. The clinical and theoretical implications of these findings for early language delay are discussed.

Treatment Efficacy Cognitive-Communicative disorders resulting from traumatic brain injury in adults - Coelho, Carl A; Deruyter, Frank; Stein, Margo (Journal of Speech Language and Hearing Research, 1996)
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) may result in a broad array of cognitive-communicative impairments. Cognitive-communicative impairments are the result of deficits in linguistic and nonlinguistic cognitive functions. The speech-language pathologist functions as a member of the multidisciplinary team of professionals that collaboratively assess and treat individuals with TBI. The role of the speech-language pathologist includes assessment of all aspects of communication, as well as the communicative implications of cognitive deficits, and swallowing; treatment planning and programming, as determined by the individual's stage of recovery; client and family training/counseling; and interdisciplinary consultation. The effectiveness of speech and language intervention for specific cognitive deficits (e.g., attention, memory, executive functions) as well as general issues of social-skills training and early intervention are illustrated by scientific and clinical evidence from group-treatment and single-subject studies as well as case studies.

An Investigation of a Method of Simplified Scoring for the Kaufman Hand Movements Test as a Measure of Limb Apraxia: - Neiman, Michael R.; Duffy, Robert J.; Belanger, Steven A.; Coelho, Carl A. (Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1996)
A simplified, 3-category method for scoring the Kaufman Hand Movements test was devised to replace a previously used, more complex 21-category scoring method. The concurrent validity and diagnostic sensitivity of the rescored test as a measure of limb apraxia were investigated in a reanalysis of the test protocols of 23 aphasic adults. Using the Limb Apraxia Test as the criterion measure, a Pearson r of .71 and predictive validity of 100% were obtained. These results encourage further investigation of the Kaufman Hand Movements lest as an efficient measure of limb apraxia.

Impairments of discourse abilities and executive functions in traumatically brain-injured adults. - Coelho, Carl A; Liles, Betty Z; Duffy, Robert J (Brain Injury, 1995)
Preliminary findings from an ongoing investigation of the potential relationship between narrative discourse performance and executive functions in adults with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are reported. Narrative stories were elicited from 32 adults with TBI. Stories were analysed at three levels: sentence production, intersentential cohesive adequacy, and story episode structure. These measures were then correlated with scores from the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), the primary measure of executive function. A significant correlation was noted between a factor score from the WCST and the measure of story structure, but not sentence production or cohesive adequacy. These results suggest that executive functions may be a promising avenue to pursue in the search for underlying causal factors of narrative discourse dysfunction and, therefore to better delineate the nature of communicative deficits secondary to TBI.

Computer‐assisted tracking simulation (CATS) - Dempsey, James J.; Levitt, Harry; Josephson, Judith; Porrazzo, Josephine (The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1992)
The tracking technique involves a sender reading consecutive segments from a story and a receiver attempting to repeat each segment verbatim. The reliability and validity of the tracking procedure have been criticized based upon uncontrolled variables such as sender, receiver, and text characteristics. To address these problems, a computer-assisted interactive tracking simulation (CATS) system has been developed in which story segments are presented to the receiver via a video laser disc system and repair strategies are implemented through a computer program.

An introduction to issues of habitat fragmentation relative to transportation corridors with special reference to high-speed rail (HSR) - De Santo, R.S.; Smith, D.G. (Environmental Management, 1993)
Potential environmental impacts on wildlife result from siting and construction (short-term impacts) and habitat removal and fragmentation (long-term impacts) as a consequence of transportation corridor construction. Especially in rural districts, wildlife migration corridors and dispersal orientation are altered or destroyed and wildlife populations and their gene pools are isolated. This significantly weakens the wildlife community. Prudent selection of construction corridors reduces fragmentation impacts by maximizing preserved fragment sizes, and by running parallel to, not through, natural areas. Corridor width determines the degree to which wildlife movement is restricted except that culverts, underpasses, overpasses, and one-way gates, can aid wildlife in cross movements. Minimum underpass dimensions for large wildlife should be no smaller than 14 ft×14 ft and should include natural substratum inverts. Rail corridors have four characteristics that minimize adverse environmental impacts. The railbed is dry, ballast fillters runoff, there is little runoff beyond the toe of slope, and drainage ditches serve to control sheet flow and erosion, sediment movement, and uncontrolled channel flow. Rail corridors usually occupy smaller land areas because they are narrower and are more feasible to elevate so as to allow free movement of wildlife across the corridor. © 1993 Springer-Verlag New York Inc.

The food and habitat niches of two nesting species of hawks Accipiter spp were studied in an extensively forested area of the Eastern Deciduous Forest Biome Nesting habitat was quantitated at 19 Cooper s hawk A cooperu nests and 16 northern goshawk A gentilis nests There was no significant trend for Cooper's hawks to nest in less mature forests than northern goshawks as reported previously for western North America Forest habitats did not differ markedly except that shrub cover was greater at Cooper's hawk nest sites, which were also on flatter terrain and closer to roads, forest openings, and human habitation However, these few differences resulted m reducing habitat‐niche overlap considerably (0 538), as was calculated using principal components analysis Mean prey weight was significantly larger for the northern goshawk which follows its 2 2‐fold body weight advantage over Cooper's hawk Although bird prey was of primary importance to both Accipiter, goshawks took twice the proportion of mammals compared to their smaller congener Food‐niche overlap was lowest by prey species overlap (0 470), followed by prey size class overlap (0 529), and highest by vertical foraging zone overlap (0 816) The Cooper's hawk showed the greatest niche breadth for both food and habitat niches indicating it as more of a generalist Overall, niche complementarity of food and habitat dimensions resulted in niche overdispersion along food and habitat dimensions with a total niche overlap (0 504) that was below the competition threshold These results suggested that competition (past and current) was responsible for segregating niches Copyright © 1992, Wiley Blackwell.

Evidence for a three-stage sequence of hominid and carnivore involvement with long bones at FLKZinjanthropus, olduvai gorge, tanzania - Selvaggio, Marie M (Journal of Archaeological Science, 1998)
The order in which hominids and carnivores had access to Plio-Pleistocene bone assemblages has defied interpretation despite attempts to decipher their sequence from element frequencies or by comparing ancient butchery marks with modern ones. Data from two simulations in which experimental stone-tool butchery of long bones occurred after carcasses were defleshed by large free-ranging East African carnivores are here compared to data from the FLK Zinjanthropus bone assemblage from Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania. One experimental sample simulated two stages of tissue removal; defleshing of long bones by carnivores, followed by tool-assisted flesh-scrap removal and marrow extraction. A second simulated three stages of tissue removal; the first two stages the same as the first sample, plus a third stage in which bone-crunching carnivores ravaged the remains. Carnivore ravaging is demonstrated to result in additional tooth marks on epiphyseal fragments, but does not significantly alter the incidence of defleshing tooth marks or butchery marks on midshafts. The Zinjanthropus sample is similar to the three-stage simulation in its proportion of epiphyseal relative to midshaft fragments, and for the incidence of midshafts bearing tooth marks and butchery marks. © 1998 Academic Press Limited.

Satisfy customers while speeding R&D and staying profitable - Curtis, Carey C; Ellis, Lynn W (Research-technology Management, 1998)
Studies of innovation management effectiveness pinpoint specific practices that will allow companies to increase customer satisfaction and pursue a strategy of speedy R&D-without compromising profitability. The two practices that accomplish this end, when used moderately (although not universally), are Quality Function Deployment for project selection and Stage-Gate Tracking for controlling development. Companies that use Internal Rate of Return as a criterion for project selection have also been found to be move profitable.

The influence of career stage on the work attitudes of male and female accounting professionals - Lynn, Susan A; Cao, Le Thi; Horn, Betty C (Journal of Organizational Behavior, 1996)
The present study compared work commitments, overall job satisfaction, intrinsic and extrinsic rewards satisfactions, and organizational and professional turnover intentions of 718 male and female accounting professionals at different career stages. Career stage was measured by professional tenure. The results indicate that there are some differences in work attitudes across career stages for male accounting professionals. Job involvement, organizational commitment, and intrinsic and extrinsic rewards satisfaction are positively related to professional tenure. Organizational turnover intentions are negatively related to professional tenure for male accounting professionals. There are no significant differences in work attitudes across career stages for female accounting professionals, An examination of reasons for differences in work attitude patterns between male and female accountants suggests the need for research to determine whether later career stages (advancement and maintenance) differ for men and women. The results also suggest that future research should consider defining career stage in terms of the overlap between stages defined using alternate career stage measures.

Measuring customer satisfaction - Ellis, Lynn W; Curtis, Carey C (Research-technology Management, 1995)
Survey research on measuring customer satisfaction using an index, market share and a lead user confirms that satisfaction must be with the firm as an innovator well as with the innovative service or product. The customer is defined as not only the end user or consumer but as a downstream counterpart of R&D in the same company or in other parts of the distribution chain. For an overall indication of customer satisfaction, measure the firm's responsiveness, its technology (capabilities and products) and product quality/reliability.

Speedy research-and-development - how beneficial - Ellis, Lynn W; Curtis, Carey C (Research-technology Management, 1995)
As companies increasingly try to do more with less, one of the key prescriptions in the literature has been to employ practices that shorten time to market, including the time taken in R&D. This article reports on survey research that links cycle times and financial performance, and records executives reactions to the results. The main finding is that the reduced costs of faster cycles fail to show up in improved earnings, and suggests several reasons why this occurs. For companies forced by competition to speed up their cycles, several management methods are given for reducing time with minimal financial impairment.
