Coil sensitivity encoding for fast MRI. In:

by Klaas P Pruessmann , Markus Weiger , Markus B Scheidegger , Peter Boesiger - Proceedings of the ISMRM 6th Annual Meeting, , 1998
"... New theoretical and practical concepts are presented for considerably enhancing the performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by means of arrays of multiple receiver coils. Sensitivity encoding (SENSE) is based on the fact that receiver sensitivity generally has an encoding effect complementa ..."

Self-determination and persistence in a real-life setting: Toward a motivational model of high school dropout.

by Robert J Vallerand , Michelle S Fbrtier , Frederic Guay - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, , 1997
"... The purpose of this study was to propose and test a motivational model of high school dropout. The model posits that teachers, parents, and the school administration's behaviors toward students influence students' perceptions of competence and autonomy. The less autonomy supportive the so ..."

Behavioral theories and the neurophysiology of reward,

by Wolfram Schultz - Annu. Rev. Psychol. , 2006
"... ■ Abstract The functions of rewards are based primarily on their effects on behavior and are less directly governed by the physics and chemistry of input events as in sensory systems. Therefore, the investigation of neural mechanisms underlying reward functions requires behavioral theories that can ..."

Dytan: A Generic Dynamic Taint Analysis Framework

by James Clause, Wanchun Li, Ro Orso - in Proceedings of the International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis , 2007
"... Dynamic taint analysis is gaining momentum. Techniques based on dynamic tainting have been successfully used in the context of application security, and now their use is also being explored in different areas, such as program understanding, software testing, and debugging. Unfortunately, most existi ..."

syndication networks are not particularly dense. As a proportion of all the relationships between every pair of VCs that could be present, the density of undirected ties peaked at 4.5% in 1987-1991 and has been declining to below 2% since. Directed ties (i.e., those between lead VC and syndicate members

Anonymous Hierarchical Identity-Based Encryption (Without Random Oracles). In: Dwork

by Xavier Boyen , Brent Waters - CRYPTO 2006. LNCS, , 2006
"... Abstract We present an identity-based cryptosystem that features fully anonymous ciphertexts and hierarchical key delegation. We give a proof of security in the standard model, based on the mild Decision Linear complexity assumption in bilinear groups. The system is efficient and practical, with sm ..."

"... Abstract: Four-month-old infants were screened (N = 433) for temperamental patterns thought to predict behavioral inhibition, including motor reactivity and the expression of negative affect. Those selected (N = 153) were assessed at multiple age points across the first 4 years of life for behavior ..."
