Narrative Essay
Write a 500-word essay describing an event that impacted your life. Be certain to review the Overview section for a complete discussion on the Narrative Essay. Your topic will be: A moment that changed my life. Remember to not list events sequentially, but rather draw the reader into specific moments that mark the narrative and build towards an analogous conclusion. (Banned topics include religious narratives of any kind and illegal activity. Remember to be very careful picking your topic, as if it is too painful to discuss, it will be too painful to write.)
Criminal behaviors
What do you consider to be the most important issues faced by biological and psychological theorists in explaining criminal behaviors? Why? How could the theories gain more credibility in the scientific community?
Topic 2: Routine Activities Theory:
There are three routine activities that are likely to produce crime and enhance the chances of victimization. Name each of those three activities and discuss their implications
Environmental analysis and company values
PLEASE SEE ATTACHMENT.
Address the following:
What is the basic strategy needed to move the company in a new direction based on environmental analysis and company values?
Which KPIs effectively measure success of the strategy? Explain how/why these KPIs align with the identified strategy.
Discuss any other relevant metrics that would effectively measure the success of the strategy.
Gender Identity
For your assignment, you topic below and use the Rogerian method to help opposing sides compromise within that topic. Remember that there are no enemies in this style of writing and no one side “wins.” You have to work with the opposing side and try to make them understand your views without offending them. It isn’t what you say but how you say it that makes Rogerian style work. Use the outline provided to help you structure your Rogerian Argument. Evidence is an essential component of a good, written argument and will be necessary in this paper. In-text citations will be necessary.
In China Men by Maxine Hong Kingston, the author conveys a story of a man who became a woman. Encased within Kingston’s hybrid factual/fictional prose of the book, as a whole, is this parable about gender and identity. It is a prose piece that invites consideration of how gender identity is formed and why it is such a powerful construct. After reading Kingston’s book, Simone de Beauvoir remarked that “one is not born a woman; one becomes a woman”. Based on Beauvoir’s assertion, one’s gender identity is more than biological. Write a Rogerian argument in which you explore both sides of the argument on whether gender is more than a biological construct to find common ground.
Your essay should show mastery in the following topics:
1. Rogerian tone
Artificial neural networks
1. Go to Google Scholar (scholar.google.com). Conduct a search to find two papers written in the last five years that compare and contrast multiple machine-learning methods for a given problem domain. Observe com- monalities and differences among their findings and prepare a report to summarize your understanding.
2. What is an artificial neural network and for what types of problems can it be used?
3. Compare artificial and biological neural networks. What aspects of biological networks are not mimicked by arti- ficial ones? What aspects are similar?
4. What are the most common ANN architectures? For what types of problems can they be used?
5. ANN can be used for both supervised and unsupervised learning. Explain how they learn in a supervised
