Demographic and behavioural profiles of patients with common oral mucosal lesions by a homogeneity analysis

2012

Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the main oral mucosal lesions (OMLs) within a hospital base and to provide an anamnestic, diagnostic model based on homogeneity analysis of some variables. Methods: The demographic and behavioural data (i.e. gender, age, smoking status, alcohol consumption and therapeutic drug usage) of 1753 patients with at least one OML were considered. Multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) and multivariate tests of the simultaneous marginal homogeneity hypothesis (SMH) were used to analyse the evidence of any differences between the demographic and behavioural profiles relating to OMLs diagnoses. Statistical significance of P<0.05 was chosen. Results: With r…

Development of artificial neural network for condition assessment of bridges based on hybrid decision making method – Feasibility study

2021

Abstract Managing a bridge at an appropriate level of reliability requires knowledge of its technical condition, which is decisive in terms of maintenance and repair activities. This is a multi-criteria decision-making problem which results from the need to allocate limited financial resources to this work. Although many calculation models have been suggested in published sources, none of them has ever met these requirements. The algorithm presented by the authors allows for the assessment of any number of bridges, taking into account the diversity of solutions in terms of materials and structures, and can provide a solution to this problem. This hybrid calculation model, combining the modi…

Database Versioning 2.0, a Transparent SQL Approach Used in Quantitative Management and Decision Making

2015

Abstract Managerial decisions are based on accurate information and in today's time raw data is produced even with a stroke of a key. Regardless of the data creating process one needs to know how the information was extracted and which pool of data was used. One important factor is time therefore we need to structure it in layers of data history in such a way that it can be analyzed, (post)process, in order to be able to retrieve valuable information. The simplest way is to use a Database Management System (DBMS), but even with such a management system we face the issue of making it a self-contained database on each version of data added. Our proposed system, a continuation of previous work…

Oracle risinājumu pielietojums Big Data kontekstā

2016

Maģistra darbā tika apskatīti un analizēti Oracle un citu ražotāju piedāvātie risinājumi Big Data apstrādei un analīzei. Darbs satur teorētisku dažādu ražotāju rīku apskati un salīdzinājumu, kā arī praktisko daļu, kurā tiek analizētas datu savienošanas iespējas hibrīdā datu noliktavā. Par hibrīdo datu noliktavu tiek uzskatīta tāda datu noliktava, kurā daļa datu atrodas RDBMS sistēmā un daļa datu HDFS sistēmā. Darba galvenie mērķi ir analizēt šāda veida sistēmas veiktspēju, izmantojot dažādus datu apvienošanas veidus. Testu laikā tika apskatīti apskatīti gadījumi, kad datu apvienošana notiek RDBMS sistēmas pusē un gadījumi, kad datu apvienošana notiek HDFS sistēmas pusē, kā arī tika izpētīta…

Secure and scalable dataprocessing and communications for an Animal Tracking System

2003

Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2003 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad Modern technology is constantly being employed in new fields, by new industries and people. The cost of advanced technological equipment decreases continously, and equipment that was reserved for people and corporations with a lot of money has now become household products. This enables many interesting ideas and projects, Kitron Development’s radiocollar project being one of them. Kitron Development is involved in a project to track the position of animals by substituting the traditional bell collar with a collar that contains a GPS receiver. The collar transmits its position to a base station using…

Construction of a webgis tool based on a gis semiautomated processing for the localization of p2g plants in sicily (Italy)

2021

The recent diffusion of RES (Renewable Energy Sources), considering the electric energy produced by photovoltaic and wind plants, brought to light the problem of the unpredictable nature of wind and solar energy. P2G (Power to Gas) implementation seems to be the right solution, transforming curtailed energy in hydrogen. The choice of the settlement of P2G plants is linked to many factors like the distances between the gas grid and the settlement of RES plants, the transportation networks, the energy production, and population distribution. In light of this, the implementation of a Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA) into a Geographic Information System (GIS) processing represents a good strategy …

A Database of Spectral Filter Array Images that Combine Visible and NIR

2017

International audience; Spectral filter array emerges as a multispectral imaging technology, which could benefit several applications. Although several instantiations are prototyped and commercialized, there are yet only a few raw data available that could serve research and help to evaluate and design adequate related image processing and algorithms. This document presents a freely available spectral filter array database of images that combine visible and near infra-red information.

Structure Monitoring with BIM and IoT: The Case Study of a Bridge Beam Model

2022

The diffusion of Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a reference methodology, applied to the world of construction, leads to important changes in the design and the management of big constructions and infrastructures. However, although the BIM approach is necessary for managing the entire life cycle of a construction, today, this methodology is still rarely adopted beyond the design phase. This represents a major flaw because the management of every phase of the life cycle of buildings needs accurate preliminary planning. Certainly, one of the most complex and important phases of the life cycle of a construction is the monitoring phase, which represents a fundamental aspect for the main…

Numerical and experimental validation of a LiFePO4 battery model at steady state and transient operations

2013

In the paper some of the battery models proposed in literature are analysed in order to predict the battery performance and, then, make sure that the Battery Management System (BMS) that is a key component to check and control the status of the batteries within their specified safe operating conditions, works in best conditions.
