Transformer architecture achieves great success in abundant natural language processing tasks. The over-parameterization of the Transformer model has motivated plenty of works to alleviate its overfitting for superior performances. With some explorat
ions, we find simple techniques such as dropout, can greatly boost model performance with a careful design. Therefore, in this paper, we integrate different dropout techniques into the training of Transformer models. Specifically, we propose an approach named UniDrop to unites three different dropout techniques from fine-grain to coarse-grain, i.e., feature dropout, structure dropout, and data dropout. Theoretically, we demonstrate that these three dropouts play different roles from regularization perspectives. Empirically, we conduct experiments on both neural machine translation and text classification benchmark datasets. Extensive results indicate that Transformer with UniDrop can achieve around 1.5 BLEU improvement on IWSLT14 translation tasks, and better accuracy for the classification even using strong pre-trained RoBERTa as backbone.
Technological vigilance refers to the search for technological information, constant monitoring of technological changes, the prediction and intelligent control of them before they reach competitors, the questioning of competitors' behavior, technolo
gical innovations, the control of business strategies, the knowledge of new consumer desires, In order to have a competitive position in a complex and rapidly changing environment and superior to competitors. The study aims to study the relationship between technological vigilance and competitive advantage in the Syrian private commercial banks, which relate to the following dimensions (cost, flexibility, quality). In order to achieve this, a basic hypothesis has been formulated, with three sub-hypotheses. The researcher used the questionnaire method to collect the data analyzed using statistical tests, the most important of which are the one-sample T. test and the Pearson Correlation. The researcher reached several results, the most important of which is: a strong positive relationship between technological vigilance and competitive advantage in Syrian private commercial banks.
The purpose of this research is to deduce the basis for calculating the cost of honey bee
products since the actual costing of various levels on accurate basis is the right starting
point for achieving all the goals of the cost systems. Because the
actual cost is the basis of
planning, control and reduction of that cost. Lack of information to properly determine
product cost may cause choosing unhealthy competitive strategies, and make bad
decisions, whether it related to product pricing or product selection.
The research objective was reached through an analytical study of previous studies that
discussed the economic feasibility of honey bee production projects in a variety of
environments. In addition, a field study was carried out on the working beekeeping firms in
Lattakia governorate during the period between the month of 11/2017 and the end of the
month 8/2018.
A number of conclusions were reached on the determinants of the cost of honey bee
products, including the need to rely on the variable cost approach in preparing the list of
honey product costs, the adoption of the production season as a period for the preparation
of this list and a number of conclusions regarding the basis for calculating the depreciation
of the assets of the honeybees and classified it as fixed cost which must included in the
income statement for the financial cycle which ends at the end of the production seasons
on 31/10 of each year.
This research aims to conduct a descriptive and econometric
analysis of the costs functions of rain fed barley in the first, second and
third stabilization zones in Al - Hasakah governorate, and to determine
the optimum sizes for production and th
e profit-maximizing size. Data
were collected through a questionnaire for rain fed barley farmers in the
study area for the average season (2015 / 2016-2016 / 2017).
This paper represents a study of all the major and sub influential
factors that affect the process of placing concrete which has
arbitrary nature and has not been stated clearly before; and the
impact of these factors on the cost of a cubic meter of placed
concrete.
In this paper, we present a system design of the photovoltaic
pumping to provide electrical and economic comparison between
two different energy supply systems: the first depends on the PV
panels, and the second depending on the public grid. farm area
study in the eastern countryside of Homs with the aim to supply
water for irrigation and drinking.
The subject of this research is to evaluate the
performance of the drilling bits used to reach the final depth of the
well in regards to mechanical speed, (alpha) factor, the cost per
meter and to recognize the bit that has the highest performance
.
Obtaining such important info is vital for the successful planning
and running of the potential exploration and appraisal wells in
Saddad area. The efficient planning of the drilling operations results
in decreasing the total drilling time which reflects in turn on the
significant decrease in the total drilling cost.
In this paper, we introduce a modification to fuzzy mountain
data clustering algorithm. We were able to make this algorithm
working automatically, through finding a way to divide the
space, to determine the values of the input parameters, and
the stop condition automatically, instead of getting them by the
user.
The Results
show that the studied companies applied conditional conservatism
practices at a good level, and following accounting conservatism
practices reduce the cost of equity.
