In recent years, the weakness of the canonical support-confidence framework for associations mining has been widely studied. One of the difficulties in applying association rules mining is the setting of support constraint. A high-support constraint avoids the combinatorial explosion in discovering frequent itemsets, but at the expense of missing interesting patterns of low support. Instead of ...

The sinus lift techniques had a lot of modifications through the years. In 1960 Boyene published sinuslift with lateral access. In the beginning it was used for achieving an optimal intercrestal distance needed for denture making. But in the 1980 Boyen and James started to place implants in the newly created bone. The wish of patients and dentists for minimalivasive methods lead to the developm...

T freezing of water and melting of ice are among the most dramatic examples of phase transitions in nature. Melting ice accounts for everyday phenomena as diverse as the electrification of thunderclouds, in which the liquid layer on ice chunks facilitates the transfer of mass and charge during collisions between them; frost heave powerful enough to lift boulders from the ground (see PHYSICS TOD...

Objective: To reemphasize LIFT technique for fistula in ano with redefined inclusion and exclusion criteria developed by Thai surgeon Arun Rojanasakul & to standardize the procedure for our setting. Material & Method: A prospective observational study in 32 fistula in ano patients treated by LIFT technique from Sept 2011 to March 2013. Result: Fistula in ano healed primarily in all 32 patients ...

Background and study aims  The majority of polyps removed at colonoscopy are diminutive (≤ 5 mm) to small (< 10 mm) and there are few guidelines for the best way for these polyps to be removed. We aimed to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of cold biopsy forceps polypectomy with pre-lift (CBPP) for polyps ≤ 7 mm. Our aims were to assess completeness of histological resection of this tech...

INTRODUCTION: Numerous facelift techniques are employed across aesthetic surgeons, but all can be categorized according to the specific plane(s) of dissection. Regardless of the technique, nerve injuries are ubiquitously feared complications. The dissection plane has been implicated in the rates of nerve injuries, but little consensus exists on the exact relationship. Our aim was to perform a s...

A Newton–Krylov algorithm is presented for two-dimensional Navier–Stokes aerodynamic shape optimization problems. The algorithm is applied to both the discrete-adjoint and the discrete  ow-sensitivity methods for calculating the gradient of the objective function. The adjoint and  ow-sensitivity equations are solved using a novel preconditioned generalized minimumresidual (GMRES) strategy. To...
