The InterCriteria Analysis (ICrA) is based on the mathematical formalisms of index matrices and intuitionistic fuzzy sets. It has been elaborated to discern possible similarities in behavior criteria pairs when multiple objects are considered, allowing also accounting information uncertainty. focus this study validate applicability ICrA over a large set ECG extracted for arrhythmia analysis eva...

We investigate powerspace constructions on topological spaces, with a particular focus on the category of quasi-Polish spaces. We show that the upper and lower powerspaces commute on all quasi-Polish spaces, and show more generally that this commutativity is equivalent to the topological property of consonance. We then investigate powerspace constructions on the open set lattices of quasi-Polis...

TO THE EDITOR—A harm reduction approach to breastfeeding in the context of maternal human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was a refreshing perspective to consider and we congratulate Levinson et al [1] on this provocative suggestion. Harm reduction as a counseling philosophy is in consonance with the World Health Organization guidelines, as both focus on informed parental decision making [2]. Choi...

The consonance constraint-satisfaction model, which has simulated the major paradigms of classical cognitive dissonance theory, is here extended to deal with more contemp orary findings concerning self-affirmation phenomena in dissonance reduction. The key addition to the model, which has also figured in recent simulations of arousal phenomena, is to lessen activity level within the neural netw...

This multi-author book has been published in consonance with the growing interest in translational medicine (TM). It consists of 11 chapters. The first chapter introduces and explains the concept of TM. It takes us through the history of TM and analyses the obstacles, low output syndrome in terms of true medical innovations as well as its implications on big pharmaceutical companies. In short, ...
