Background: Sharing of health data should improve patient safety and improve health services efficiency. These data can also be used for research. The shared data are usually “coded” using a coding system classification or nomenclature. However, “coding” is not a neutral action and is part of the complex social interaction between doctor and patient To derive meaning from data it is essential t...

INTRODUCTION Many are the circumstances in which action–perception dissociations have been observed (e.g. [1], [2]). Among the best known cases there are the pictorial illusions which induce errors in perception but cannot deceive a motor act. It is not yet clear however in which other conditions this separation could be noticed [3]. Following the work of Dubrowski [4] and Zago [5] we wanted to...

proposing a noise standards should be considered seriously by the governmental authorities because of the prevalence of hazardous noise exposure and the seriousness of the effects . in a survey founded by world health organization’s regional office in iran, the existing as well as gathered data from field were applied to propose a national occupational noise exposure limit. the collected data p...

Background: An ammonia gas explosion poses immediate health hazards such as respiratory tract burns, skin and eye irritation, and potential death within seconds. It also causes long-term negative impacts on biodiversity, affecting aquatic life and vegetation. An explosion in the Firuzabad sodium carbonate factory in Iran led to massive ammonia gas leakage and the poisoning of several employees....

Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) are widely known to scale poorly, particularly for tasks with large numbers of states or with richly connected graphical structures. This is a consequence of inference having a time complexity which is at best quadratic in the number of states. This paper describes a novel parameterisation of the CRF which ties the majority of clique potentials, while allowing i...

Based on the membrane currents generated by an action potential in a biologically realistic model of a pyramidal, hippocampal cell within rat CA1, we perform a moment expansion of the extracellular field potential. We decompose the potential into both inverse and classical moments and show that this method is a rapid and efficient way to calculate the extracellular field both near and far from ...

today, with the advanced statistical techniques and neural networks, predictive models of distribution have been rapidly developed in ecology. purpose of this research is to predict and map the distribution of tetranychus urticae koch (acari: tetranychidae) using mlp neural networks combined with genetic algorithm in surface of farm. population data of pest was obtained in 2016 by sampling in 1...

in this research, recognition of karstic water-bearing zones using the management of exploration data in kal-qorno valley, situated in the tepal area of shahrood, has been considered. for this purpose, the sequential exploration method was conducted using geological evidences and applying remote sensing and geoelectrical resistivity methods in two major phases including the regional and local s...
