Semi-supervised wrapper methods are concerned with building effective supervised classifiers from partially labeled data. Though previous works have succeeded in some fields, it is still difficult to apply semi-supervised wrapper methods to practice because the assumptions those methods rely on tend to be unrealistic in practice. For practical use, this paper proposes a novel semi-supervised wr...

Medicine is now undertaking a paramount revolution that will alter the nature of healthcare from reactive to proactive. It is imperative to integrate experimental and computational investigation in order to appreciate complex biological systems in the era of precision medicine. In light of this revolution, we necessitate to precision medicine means such as systems approaches (genomics, radiogen...

In order to improve the evaluation precision of education and training quality, a kind of quality evaluation model of combined medical education and training course (AHPPCASV) is put forward, which is a combination of analytic hierarchy process, principal component analysis and support vector machine. Firstly, AHP is used to construct the evaluation index body, and then the principal component ...

We describe a simple means of modulating preparation temperature, which may be useful in undergraduate physiology laboratories. The device was developed in an effort to make teaching exercises that involve temperature modulation accessible at low cost. Although we were interested in using the device specifically with the larval fruit fly preparation, it is applicable to many preparations and te...

We present Frequency Analyser, an Android TM application for measuring the fundamental frequency of a sound wave with very high precision in a frequency range between 100 Hz and 11 kHz. The application allows exporting the data of frequency as a function of time to an ASCII file. Several examples of application to Physics and Engineering teaching experiments are presented.

Statistical reference datasets from the National Institute of Standards and Technology were used to evaluate the accuracy and precision of two web-based statistical packages, WebStat (found at http://www.stat.sc.edu/webstat/) and Statlets (found at http://www.statlets.com/statletsindex.htm). This evaluation revealed that both packages performed reasonably well in the analysis of lower difficult...

Introduction. One of the major problems in clinical teaching wards is the relationship between students and patients of these wards. We often look that patients refuse of admission in these wards in spite of presence of skilled physicians and better instruments. The aim of the study is survey of attitude of bed rid patients in teaching wards about miscellaneous aspects of presence of students i...
