Incorporation of Donor Risk Into Liver Allocation Algorithms

Survival benefit-based deceased-donor liver allocation.

Currently, patients awaiting deceased-donor liver transplantation are prioritized by medical urgency. Specifically, wait-listed chronic liver failure patients are sequenced in decreasing order of Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score. To maximize lifetime gained through liver transplantation, posttransplant survival should be considered in prioritizing liver waiting list candidates. We...

Incorporation of new science into risk assessment.

Ameica Aso on_ for the Advnm t of Scince Scie serves its readers as a forum for the presentation and discussion of important issues related to the advancement of science, including the presentation of minority or conflicting points of view, rather than by publishing only material on which a consensus has been reached. Accordingly, all articles published in Science-ncluding editorials, news and ...

Incorporation of Scalarizing Fitness Functions into Evolutionary Multiobjective Optimization Algorithms

This paper proposes an idea of probabilistically using a scalarizing fitness function in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms. We introduce two probabilities to specify how often the scalarizing fitness function is used for parent selection and generation update in EMO algorithms. Through computational experiments on multiobjective 0/1 knapsack problems with two, three and ...

Incorporation of Flipped Learning into EFL Classrooms Performance and Perception

Innovative mobile-based tools have made new opportunities for learners to spend more quality time inside the classrooms. Keeping this in mind, the present study sought to examine the effect of the flipped classroom on developing EFL learners’ speaking and listening skills. To do so, 60 EFL students from two universities in Iran were assigned into one of the classes of flipped and conventional g...
