OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the cost effectiveness of multiple competing diagnostic strategies for suspected scaphoid fractures. METHODS With published data, the authors created a decision-tree model simulating the diagnosis of suspected scaphoid fractures. Clinical outcomes, costs, and cost effectiveness of immediate computed tomography (CT), day 3 magnetic resonance imagi...

The community detection was performed from the perspective of links, and we proposed an inhibition method against social network worms. Firstly, a community detection algorithm was proposed, which based on link clustering, and we got related link incremental information through the network structure information at various time points. In order to obtain the link communities, we adopted an impro...

Automatically characteristic the query group is useful for variety of various computer program elements and applications, like question suggestions, result ranking, question alterations, sessionization, and cooperative search. In our approach, we have a tendency to transcend approaches that have confidence matter similarity or time thresholds, and that we propose a lot of strong approach that l...

In laboratory studies, praising children's effort encourages them to adopt incremental motivational frameworks--they believe ability is malleable, attribute success to hard work, enjoy challenges, and generate strategies for improvement. In contrast, praising children's inherent abilities encourages them to adopt fixed-ability frameworks. Does the praise parents spontaneously give children at h...

During the last decade, incremental forming is an innovative processing method which has been strongly investigated. Its potential as a flexible manufacturing method was noticed. This paper aims to present a comparative study of the recent worldwide developments in the field of incremental sheet forming (ISF), as a flexible method for manufacturing hollow metal parts. There are pointed out its ...

The contemporary information technology and changing habits of consumers using Web-based platforms provides new possibilities for companies to exploit the innovativeness and technical abilities of consumers in their research and development work. Because of international platforms, this kind of crowdsourcing is a source for transcultural incremental and radical innovations for companies. The pu...

Graph pattern matching is among the most costly operations in any graph transformation system. Incremental pattern matching aims at reducing this cost by incrementally updating, as opposed to totally recalculating, the possible matches of rules in the graph grammar at each step of the transformation. In this paper an implementation of one such algorithm is discussed with respect to the GROOVE t...

Layout strategies that strive to preserve perspective from earlier drawings are called incremental. In this paper we study the incremental arc crossing minimization problem for bipartite graphs. We develop a greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (GRASP) for this problem. We have also developed a branch-andbound algorithm in order to compute the relative gap to the optimal solution of the ...

A problem related to the integration test of object-oriented programs is the order that classes are integrated and tested. This problem also appears in aspect-oriented programs. The incremental integration strategy, which suggests that classes are tested first and then integrated to the aspects, is often proposed as the more adequate strategy to integrate classes and aspects. This work presents...
