STANDARD UNITS IN AEROLOGY

Annotated Literals for Standard Units of Measurement

In our experiences building systems that use Semantic Web technologies, we have often identified a requirement for a consistent way to associate data values with standard units. We have tried a number of solutions to this issue, each of which has its own benefits and drawbacks in terms of complexity, expressivity, and clarity. In this paper, we present a discussion of the issue and a proposal f...

Ranking Decision Making Units based on their profit in competition to reach a ‎standard level

The full ranking or complete ranking of decision making units is one of the main ‎issues in data envelopment analysis. A full ranking is a ranking that considers all ‎efficient and inefficient units simultaneously and finds a ranking for them. Almost all ‎of the developed ranking methods consider only the efficient units. On the other hand, ‎ranking inefficient units by traditional data envelop...

Compressed Domain Scene Change Detection Based on Transform Units Distribution in High Efficiency Video Coding Standard

Scene change detection plays an important role in a number of video applications, including video indexing, searching, browsing, semantic features extraction, and, in general, pre-processing and post-processing operations. Several scene change detection methods have been proposed in different coding standards. Most of them use fixed thresholds for the similarity metrics to determine if there wa...

Standard costs for nursing services in acute care units

At this stage in the development of diagnosis­ related groups (DRG 's), there is an imperfect record of the value and amount of nursing resources used by individual patients during a single hospital stay. Previous attempts to isolate the costs of nursing care in relationship to DRG's are reviewed. A research strategy to attain such relative measurements is proposed. Such inquiries are necessary...
