In this book, I have taken the reader on a journey across the improvements that are required to help close the growing income gap between Africa and the rest of the world. Figure 1.1 in Chapter1shows the extent to which the gap has grown incrementally with each passing decade since independ...
CLOSING the Gap (Australia)RESEARCH integrityThis article analyzes Queensland perinatal data from 2011 to 2020 to measure progress towards the Closing the Gap target for healthy birthweight in Indigenous babies. The study finds that the current approach of assessing healthy birthweight ba...
As a beam of beryllium comes in from the left, the deuteron Trojan horse intercepts it at the target and delivers its neutron soldier. This allows the decay products of the beryllium and neutron reactions to be captured by a curved array of six detectors on the right. Credit: ...
explore an 80% emissions reduction target using both an emissions cap and a range of carbon taxes modeled with the MARKAL nine-region model [17]. Ding et al. and Almutairi and Elhedhli similarly model the emissions and cost impacts under a carbon tax at various geographical scales [18,19...
approved by IRB at this institution provided justification for the choice of sex or gender of the target population, and only three that indicated they plan to study the impact of sex or gender on the primary outcomes.11This is a lost opportunity to close a gap early in the research ...
If you truly understand your target audience, truly walk in their shoes, and understand what those key needs are, the more focused you can be on those particular needs. Because oftentimes entrepreneurs, especially in tech space, might do it at the very beginning and then get buried into the...
The first is unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA). The most successful variant of UDA relies on self-training [9,10,11,12,13,14]. It involves training the network using a source synthetic dataset with automatically generated images and labels, along with pseudo-labels from real, target images...
Your target is to close the anion gap, normalize pH, and normalize bicarbonate safely while avoiding hypoglycemia and hypokalemia.[5,6,8]Measure glucose every hour, and watch urine output. If the patient is not producing urine, consider renal failure and/or shock. ...
A decade on, progress has been ostensibly negligible, though some gains have been realised in two target areas (early childhood education, year 12 attainment) [2]. There are notable challenges to gauging progress including obtaining accurate data and the changing demographics of both Indigenous and...
The target normalised correlation ratio is denoted as S˜i*: it is assumed that S˜i*=wi, i.e. the weights assigned by developers reflect the intended importance. The normalisation of Si is done only in order to make it directly comparable with the target values (weights), which also...
