Automation in clinical bacteriology: what system to choose?

With increased activity and reduced financial and human resources, there is a need for automation in clinical bacteriology. Initial processing of clinical samples includes repetitive and fastidious steps. These tasks are suitable for automation, and several instruments are now available on the market, including the WASP (Copan), Previ-Isola (BioMerieux), Innova (Becton-Dickinson) and Inoqula (K...

Laboratory automation in clinical bacteriology: what system to choose?

Automation was introduced many years ago in several diagnostic disciplines such as chemistry, haematology and molecular biology. The first laboratory automation system for clinical bacteriology was released in 2006, and it rapidly proved its value by increasing productivity, allowing a continuous increase in sample volumes despite limited budgets and personnel shortages. Today, two major manufa...

Neural Networks: What Non-linearity to Choose

Neural networks are now one of the most successful learning formalisms. Neurons transform inputs x1, ..., xn into an output f(w1x1 + ... + wnxn), where f is a non-linear function and wi are adjustable weights. What f to choose? Usually the logistic function is chosen, but sometimes the use of different functions improves the practical efficiency of the network. We formulate the problem of choos...

How to choose what you lift

We explore the lifting question in the context of cut-generating functions. Most of the prior literature on lifting for cut-generating functions focuses on which cut-generating functions have the unique lifting property. Here we develop a general theory for understanding how to do lifting for cut-generating functions which do not have the unique lifting property.
