Abstract:
Learning from error is often a slow process. In machine learning, the learning rate depends on a loss function that specifies a cost for error. Here, we hypothesized that during motor learning, error carries an implicit cost for the brain because the act of correcting for error consumes time and energy. Thus, if this implicit cost could be increased, it may robustly alter how the brain learns from error. To vary the implicit cost of error, we designed a task that combined saccade adaptation with motion discrimination: movement errors resulted in corrective saccades, but those corrections took

Abstract Background Preanalytical errors account for most laboratory errors. Although the frequencies of preanalytical errors are well characterized in the literature, little is known regarding the costs of these errors to the laboratory.

Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of INR requests associated with preanalytical error codes from January 2009 through September 2013.

In epidemiological studies of an exposure-response association, often only a mismeasured exposure is taken on each individual of the population under study. If ignored, exposure measurement error can bias the estimated exposure-response association in question. A reliability study may be carried out to estimate the relation between the mismeasured and true exposure, which could then be used to adjust for measurement error in the attenuated exposure-response relationship. However, taking repeated exposure measurements may be expensive. Given a fixed total study cost, a two-stage design may be a

Abstract:
AbstractAdvancing semiconductor technologies increasingly fail to provide expected gains in cost and energy reductions due to reaching the physical limits of Moore’s Law and Dennard scaling. Instead, shrinking semiconductor feature sizes increase a circuit’s susceptibility to soft errors. In order to ensure reliable operation, a significant hardware overhead would be required.The FEHLER project (Flexible Error Handling for Embedded Real-Time Systems) introduces error semantics into the software development process which provide a system with information about the criticality of a given data object to soft errors. Using this information, the overhead required for error correction can be reduced significantly for many applications, since only errors affecting critical data have to be corrected.In this chapter, the fundamental components of FEHLER that cooperate at design and runtime of an embedded system are presented. These include static compiler analyses and transformations as well as a fault-aware microkernel. Using examples of typical embedded applications, the efficiency of the approach is demonstrated, along with an extension towards approximate computing systems.

Abstract:
AbstractReliability of the memory subsystem is a growing concern in computer architecture and system design. From on-chip embedded memories in Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and on-chip caches to off-chip main memories, the memory subsystems have become the limiting factor in the overall reliability of computing systems. This is because they are primarily designed to maximize bit storage density; this makes memories particularly sensitive to manufacturing process variation, environmental operating conditions, and aging-induced wearout. This chapter of the book focuses on software managed techniques and novel error correction codes to opportunistically cope with memory errors whenever they occur for improved reliability at minimal cost.

AbstractThis paper presents a parametric cost model for estimating the raw material cost of components realized employing the investment casting process. The model is built using sensitivity analysis and regression methods on data generated by an analytic cost model previously developed and validated by the same authors. This is the first attempt of developing a parametric cost model for investment casting based on activity-based costing. The proposed cost model accounts component volume, material density and material price. The error in estimating the raw material cost for components whose volume is within the common range of investment casting is around 11%.
