As part of a project to develop a roadmap for the creation of a multi-center fully identified patient data warehouse involving all State Universities of New York State (SUNY), we’ve examined patient records stored in an EHR database to 1) determine what its contents are intended to represent, and 2) develop ontologically sound models based on the principles of Ontological Realism and Referent T...

Most new housing designs in Saudi Arabia are created to meet the client’s needs with minimal regard for environmental or energy-related considerations, resulting buildings’ poor thermal performance and a growing reliance on artificial means. Polycarbonate windows have recently acquired popularity. Yet, there is rising interest combining polycarbonate nanomaterials reduce energy consumption, esp...

The probability theory used in quantum mechanics is currently being employed by psychologists to model the impact of context on decision. Its event space consists of closed subspaces of a Hilbert space, and its probability function sometimes violate the law of the finite additivity of probabilities. Results from the literature indicate that such a “Hilbert space probability theory” cannot be ex...

In this paper we show that model categories of a very broad class can be replaced up to Quillen equivalence by simplicial model categories.

Introduction: In radionuclide imaging, object scatter is one of the major factors leading to image quality degradation. Therefore, the correction of scattered photons might have a great impact on improving the image quality. Regarding this, the present study aimed to determine the main and sub-energy windows for triple energy window (TEW) scatter correction method usin...
