conclusion this study shows no significant improvement in the cancer detection rate by double reading; however, a lower recall rate could be a more helpful consequence. results readers had consensus on bi-rads categories in 459 breasts (71%), but diverse categories were used for 183 breasts (29%), including 132 significant and 51 non-significant discrepancies. according to weighted kappa test, ...

In this paper we provide a method for evaluating interest point detectors independently of image descriptors. This is possible because we have compiled a unique data set enabling us to determine if common interest points are found. The data contains 60 scenes of a wide range of object types, and for each scene we have 119 precisely located camera positions obtained from a camera mounted on an i...

Retrieval tasks provide learners with an opportunity to focus both on meaning and on form. There are four different retrieval directions. The present study aimed to identify the optimal direction of recall type retrievals during reading and to investigate the outcomes of each one. Forty-eight intermediate EFL learners took part in the study. One of the experimental groups was provided with the ...
