Real-life design problems often require simultaneous optimization of multiple conflicting criteria resulting in a set of best trade-off solutions. This best trade-off set of solutions is referred to as Pareto optimal front (POF) in the outcome space. Obtaining the complete POF becomes impractical for problems where evaluation of each solution is computationally expensive. Such problems are commonly encountered in several fields, such as engineering, management, and scheduling. A practical approach in such cases is to construct suitable POF approximations, which can aid visualization, decision-making, and interactive optimization. In this paper, we propose a method to generate piecewise linear Pareto front approximation from a given set of N Pareto optimal outcomes. The approximations are represented using geometrical linear objects known as polytopes, which are formed by triangulating the given M-objective outcomes in a reduced (M−1)-objective space. The proposed approach is hence referred to as projection-based Pareto interpolation (PROP). The performance of PROP is demonstrated on a number of benchmark problems and practical applications with linear and nonlinear fronts to illustrate its strengths and limitations. While being novel and theoretically interesting, PROP also improves on the computational complexity required in generating such approximations when compared with existing Pareto interpolation (PAINT) algorithm.

In order to best meet the needs of older residents in long-term care settings, clinicians often develop programs designed to streamline and improve care. However, many individuals are reluctant to embrace change. This article will discuss strategies that the speech-language pathologist (SLP) can use to assess and address the source of resistance to new programs and thereby facilitate optimal outcomes.

Abstract It is possible for children who are deaf or hard of hearing to attain language development comparable to their hearing peers, but these outcomes are not guaranteed. The population of children with hearing loss is a diverse population and although the variable of the age of identification is less variable, there are numerous variables that could potentially and have historically impacted language outcomes of children who are deaf or hard of hearing. Variables such as hearing loss, maternal level of education, and maternal bonding can overcome the benefits of earlier identification and intervention.

Abstract. Auditory sensory gating is commonly assessed using the Paired-Click Paradigm (PCP), an electroencephalography (EEG) task in which two identical sounds are presented sequentially and the brain’s inhibitory response to the second sound is measured. Many clinical populations demonstrate reduced P50 and/or N100 suppression. Testing sensory gating in children may help to identify individuals at risk for neurodevelopmental disorders earlier, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which could lead to more optimal outcomes. Minimal research has been done with children because of the difficulty of performing lengthy EEG experiments with young children, requiring them to sit still for long periods of time. We designed a modified, potentially child-friendly version of the PCP and evaluated it in typically developing adults. The PCP was administered twice, once in a traditional silent room (silent movie condition) and once with an audible movie playing (audible movie condition) to minimize boredom and enhance behavioral compliance. We tested whether P50 and N100 suppression were influenced by the presence of the auditory background noise from the movie. N100 suppression was observed in both hemispheres in the silent movie condition and in the left hemisphere only during the audible movie condition, though suppression was attenuated in the audible movie condition. P50 suppression was not observed in either condition. N100 sensory gating was successfully elicited with an audible movie playing during the PCP, supporting the use of the modified task for future research in both children and adults.
