Who is where? Characteristics of deaf and hard-of-hearing students in regular and special schools
A secondary analysis of the National Longitudinal Transition Study 2 database was conducted to examine differences in the characteristics of students who attended special schools, such as schools for the…

Mechatronic Design of an Integrated Robotic Hand
In this paper, we present a hand designed for minimalistic dexterous manipulation, in which every stage of the design process also considered its manufacturing cost. Finally, we present the results…

A Synthesized Algorithm for Interactive Consistency
We discovered our algorithm using an automated synthesis technique that is based on bounded model checking and QBF solving. Our synthesis technique is general and simple, and it is a…

The Gradual Verifier
We propose a gradual verification approach, GraVy. For a given piece of Java code, GraVy partitions the statements into those that are unreachable, or from which exceptional termination is impossible, inevitable, or…

Computer-Guided Inquiry to Improve Science Learning
Engaging students in inquiry practices is known to motivate them to persist in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields and to create lifelong learners. In inquiry, students initiate investigations,…

Safety Envelope for Security
We present an approach for detecting sensor spoofing attacks on a cyber-physical system. Our approach consists of two steps. In the first step, we construct a safety envelope of the system. In…

Designing Bifunctional NOP Receptor-Mu-Opioid Receptor Ligands from NOP-Receptor Selective Scaffolds. Part II
We describe a continuing structure–activity relationship (SAR) study of the NOP-selective piperidin-4-yl-1,3-dihydroindol-2-one scaffold, to obtain bifunctional activity at MOP, and a suitable ratio of NOP/MOP agonist activity that produces a…

ABT-089 and ABT-894 reduce levodopa-induced dyskinesias in a monkey model of Parkinson’s disease
Here, we examined the effect of two β2 nAChR agonists, ABT-089 and ABT-894, that previously were approved for phase 2 clinical trials for other indications.

Sol-gel solution-deposited InGaZnO thin film transistors
Thin film transistors fabricated by solution processing of sol-gel oxide semiconductor precursors in the group In-Ga-Zn are described.

Customer care dialog management, an inverse reinforcement learning approach
Many dialog systems are still based on deterministic approaches with a pre-defined set of tasks where adaptability is limited.

A comparative usability study of two-factor authentication
In this paper, we present an exploratory comparative study of the usability of 2F technologies.

New Electrode Architecture for High Performance Lithium Ion Batteries
In this work, a new approach to maximize power will be theoretically and experimentally presented using an ordered, dual-scale porosity distribution in the dense, thick electrodes targeting high energy density.
