In other words, it is through the reinforcement of the knowledge-capital (developing absorption capacity and implementing open innovation strategies) that SMEs will be able to increase their negotiation power within innovation networks.
For their own innovation strategy, as well as for the innovation performance in general, the reinforcement of SMEs' knowledge-capital is thus a priority.
While those in the intervention studies received frequent opportunities for re-engagement with professionals and reinforcement of diabetes knowledge, those in the usual care study were left largely to fend for themselves.
This could be achieved using the classical MDP methods like relative value iteration; instead we look for solutions from reinforcement learning in which the knowledge of transition probability ([p_Y(j|i)]) is not needed.
The reinforcement of our knowledge about blood-feeding behaviour of haematophagous arthropods and transmission patterns in wild species should decisively contribute to an efficient evaluation and modelling of epidemiologic risks and a better understanding of ecological networks.
Training of community volunteers and constant reinforcement of this knowledge could enhance the basic knowledge and practice levels in their communities, thus improving the long-term sustainability of such interventions.
Regular reinforcement of providers' knowledge and skills should be a priority in these settings.
The BPL was an easy sell for subjects with simple reinforcement of prior knowledge and confirmation of experimenter statements with a rigged trial.
Intriguingly, analysis of the preliminary student feedback from individual case studies did not indicate any significant difference in terms of interest (P = 0.499), enjoyment (P = 0.571), illustration of medical concepts (P = 0.641) or reinforcement of pharmacological knowledge (P = 0.341).
In fact, one of my former bosses whom I have quoted before, Neil Rackham, conducted a study that indicated that post training, if there was no coaching or reinforcement activity, there was a drop-off of 87% of the knowledge acquired.
