An Initial Investigation
"... University students (n = 69) enrolled in an introductory psychology course at an historically Black university completed nine curriculum-based mea-surement probes. Results for each student were graphed and trendlines were calculated. Trendline direction was examined to determine whether a possible f ..."

formative assessment technique might be developed for use at the university level. Suggestions for further research concluded the investigation. Assessment is an integral part of effective education. Without valid, reliable and efficient assessment, teachers have no idea whether students have learned what
An Initial Investigation into the Baraminology of Snakes:
, 2005
"... Evolution theory predicts that the ancestry of organisms can be traced down a hypothetical evolutionary tree and eventually back to the first living cell. Creation theory postulates that ancestry can be traced back only a limited distance to a starting organism of that type. Instead of a “tree ” the ..."

and intergeneric hybridization tendencies and within each family certain genera and species were classified into subgroups of related snakes. This initial investigation indicates that many snakes have the ability to hybridize, even when they are reproductively isolated over great distances, and are capable of a
Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:
- Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI,
, 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

to the correct marginals. However, on the QMR network, the loopy be liefs oscillated and had no obvious relation ship to the correct posteriors. We present some initial investigations into the cause of these oscillations, and show that some sim ple methods of preventing them lead to the wrong results
Detectability of Discrete Event Systems
"... In this paper, we investigate the detectability problem in discrete event systems. We assume that we do not know initially which state the system is in. The problem is to determine the current and subsequent states of the system based on a sequence of observation. The observation includes partial ev ..."

Maximum Likelihood Linear Transformations for HMM-Based Speech Recognition
- COMPUTER SPEECH AND LANGUAGE
, 1998
"... This paper examines the application of linear transformations for speaker and environmental adaptation in an HMM-based speech recognition system. In particular, transformations that are trained in a maximum likelihood sense on adaptation data are investigated. Other than in the form of a simple bias ..."

-space transforms on a large vocabulary speech recognition task using incremental adaptation is investigated. In addition, initial experiments using the constrained model-space transform for speaker adaptive training are detailed.
Bricks: Laying the foundations for graspable user interfaces
, 1995
"... We introduce the concept of Graspable User Interfaces which allow direct control of electronic or virtual objects through physical handles for control. These physical artifacts are essentially new input devices which can be tightly coupled or “attached ” to virtual objects for manipulation or for ex ..."

or for expressing action (e.g., to set parameters or for initiating processes). We present three steps in the development of these ideas. First, as a note on research methodology, we outline a series of exploratory studies that were conducted. Secondly, we describe a prototype system called "Bricks &
Wide-Area Traffic: The Failure of Poisson Modeling
- IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING
, 1995
"... Network arrivals are often modeled as Poisson processes for analytic simplicity, even though a number of traffic studies have shown that packet interarrivals are not exponentially distributed. We evaluate 24 wide-area traces, investigating a number of wide-area TCP arrival processes (session and con ..."

"... A 52-yr-old female presented with complaints of upper abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. There was no history of prior abdominal pain, abdominal distension and constipa-tion. In June 2003, the patient had presented to her general practitioner with pain and swelling in multiple joints, both small a ..."

, the physical examination was unremarkable. There were no joint deformities or joint tenderness. A summary of investigations is shown in table 1, and these included a chest radiograph (fig. 1) and computed tomogra-phy of the chest (fig. 2). Fibreoptic bronchoscopy was carried out, and transbronchial biopsies
