Functional forms and educational production functions [PDF]

open access: yesEconomics Letters, 1985
Abstract Different functional forms are proposed and applied in the context of educational production functions. Policy implications of such an approach in terms of school interventions are discussed in the paper.

The evolutionary origin of form and function [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2014
AbstractWe regard the basic unit of the organism, the cell, as a complex dissipative natural process functioning under the second law of thermodynamics and the principle of least action. Organisms are conglomerates of information bearing cells that optimise the efficiency of energy (nutrient) extraction from its ecosystem.

Characterizations of generalized entropy functions by functional equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We shall show that a two-parameter extended entropy function is characterized by a functional equation. As a corollary of this result, we obtain that the Tsallis entropy function is characterized by a functional equation, which is a different form used ...

Privileged Functional Connectivity between the Visual Word Form Area and the Language System

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2017
The visual word form area (VWFA) is a region in the left occipitotemporal sulcus of literate individuals that is purportedly specialized for visual word recognition.

Functional form of motion priors in human motion perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It has been speculated that the human motion system combines noisy measurements with prior expectations in an optimal, or rational, manner. The basic goal of our work is to discover experimentally which prior distribution is used.

On the sum form functional equation related to diversity index

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica
The focal point of this article is to study a functional equation of sum form involving four unknown mappings. We primarily concentrate on exploring all possible solutions of the equation.

Development of functional cookies form wheat-pumpkin seed based composite flour

open access: yesHeliyon
To develop high quality cookies, even seemingly smallest changes depended on factors that can affect taste, texture, and nutritional value. In this light, this study aimed to investigate the upshot of refined wheat flour and pumpkin seed flour on ...

A simple functional form for proton-nucleus total reaction cross sections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A simple functional form has been found that gives a good representation of the total reaction cross sections for the scattering of protons from (15) nuclei spanning the mass range ${}^{9}$Be to ${}^{238}$U and for proton energies ranging from 20 to 300 ...

Human Amniotic Fluid Cells Form Functional Gap Junctions with Cortical Cells

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2012
The usage of stem cells is a promising strategy for the repair of damaged tissue in the injured brain. Recently, amniotic fluid (AF) cells have received a lot of attention as an alternative source of stem cells for cell-based therapies.
