Opioidergic Projections to Sleep-Active Neurons in the Ventrolateral Preoptic Nucleus
We hypothesized that the influence of opiates on sleep may be mediated, at least in part, by the ventrolateral preoptic nucleus (VLPO), a key cell group for producing behavioral sleep.

Global-Local Interference Is Related to Callosal Compromise in Alcoholism: a Behavior-DTI Association Study
We used a global–local paradigm to assess component processes of visuospatial ability and MR diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to examine whether alcoholism-related microstructural degradation of the corpus callosum contributes to disruption of selective lateralized visuospatial and attention processes.

Efficient data selection for machine translation
In this paper, we introduce two methods for efficient selection of training data to be translated by humans. Our methods are motivated by active learning and aim to choose new data that adds maximal information to the currently available data pool.
