We are delighted to welcome Clinical Associate Professor Ivan Goldberg and Professor Franz Grehn and Paul Chew to the panel to provide opinion on this very challenging clinical situation.

The Dominance-based Rough Set Approach (DRSA) is an extension of Rough Sets Theory to handle multicriteria classification problems by authorizing preferenceordered attributes. The DRSA assumes the existence of a single decision table while real-world decision problems imply generally several experts with different decision tables. The objective of this paper is to propose an algorithm for the a...

Ripple-Down Rules (RDR) has the goal of simple, incremental development of a knowledge-based system (KBS) while the KBS is already in use, so that over time an expert can evolve a sophisticated KBS as a minor extension of their normal duties. RDR has had considerable success in developing classification KBS. It has been extended to configuration, heuristic search and other tasks. This paper pro...

MOTIVATION Genome-scale metabolic networks are widely used in systems biology. However, to date no freely available tool exists that ensures quality control during the reconstruction process. RESULTS Here, we present a COBRA toolbox extension, rBioNet, enabling the construction of publication-level biochemical networks while enforcing necessary quality control measures. rBioNet has an intuiti...

A generalization of deFinetti’s Fundamental Theorem of Probability facilitates coherent assessment, by iterated natural extension, of imprecise probabilities or expectations, conditional and unconditional. Point values are generalized to assessed bounds, accepted under weak coherence, that is, allowing the input of redundant, or slack, bounds. The method is realized in a convenient interactive ...

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has an impact on the education sector. Educators must ensure learning activities continue. solution is that educators design devices with innovative models. 7E model consists of 7 stages, namely: elicitation, engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration, evaluation, and extension.
