Specifically, I turn to discursive communication theory and sociocultural learning theory. READ MORE

  6. 4. Learning as a patient : What and how individuals want to learn when preparing for surgery, and the potential use of serious games in their education

    Abstract : Introduction: Surgical patients need knowledge to participate in their own care and to engage in self-care behaviour in the perioperative period which is important for their recovery. Patient education facilitates such knowledge acquisition and several methods can be used to facilitate it, for example, face-to-face education and brochures or using information technology such as website or computer games.

  7. 5. Information-Theoretic Generalization Bounds: Tightness and Expressiveness

    Author : Fredrik Hellström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; information theory; neural networks; generalization; statistical learning; meta learning; PAC-Bayes; Machine learning;

    Abstract : Machine learning has achieved impressive feats in numerous domains, largely driven by the emergence of deep neural networks. Due to the high complexity of these models, classical bounds on the generalization error---that is, the difference between training and test performance---fail to explain this success. READ MORE
