this paper considers the automatic design of fuzzy rule-basedclassification systems based on labeled data. the classification performance andinterpretability are of major importance in these systems. in this paper, weutilize the distribution of training patterns in decision subspace of each fuzzyrule to improve its initially assigned certainty grade (i.e. rule weight). ourapproach uses a punish...

Materials and Methods: The study included 60 patients that had ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). All the patients underwent coronary angiography 1-4 days after admission (mean: 2.3 ± 1.2 days). Patients were graded according to Rentrop classification. Patients with grade 0 or 1 collateral vessels were classified as poor collaterals; patients with grade 2 or 3 collateral vessel...

AIM To compare the predictive outcome of ocular burns using two different prognostic classification systems, that is, Dua and Roper Hall classification. PATIENTS AND METHODS In a prospective, randomised, controlled clinical trial, the extent of acute ocular burns in 100 patients was graded by Roper Hall and Dua classifications. Patients were randomised in two groups of 50 each to receive conv...

The openness of the Web allows any user to access almost any type of information. However, some information, such as adult content, is not appropriate for all users, notably children. Additionally for adults, some contents included in abnormal porn sites can do ordinary people’s mental health harm. In this paper, we propose an efficient 2-way text filter for blocking harmful web documents and a...

In the Working Formulation (WF), non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) are grouped according to their clinical behavior. These disorders are listed as entities defined by morphology, phenotype, and cytogenetics in the proposed Revised European-American Classification of Lymphoid Neoplasms (REAL), the clinical relevance of which is still debated. We analyzed 670 NHL cases included in two randomized clin...

We present a pathological image analysis system for the computer-aided prognosis of neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. The image analysis system automatically classifies Schwannian stromal development of pathological tissues and determines the grade of differentiation. Due to the demanding computational cost of processing large digitized slides, the system was implemented on a cluster of comput...

Based on the results of histological and immunohistochemical observations of a large number of peripheral T cell lymphomas from China, England, Germany and Japan, histological and cytological morphology were correlated with immunophenotype, aetiological association with HTLV-1, and clinical behaviour to produce a working classification of the T cell lymphomas. This classification, based mainly ...
