A multi-agent system approach for monitoring the prescription of restricted use antibiotics.

Hospitals have a specified set of antibiotics for restricted use (ARU), very expensive, which are only recommended for special pathologies. The pharmacy department daily checks the prescription of this kind of antibiotics since it is often the case that, ...

Automated monitoring of medical protocols: a secure and distributed architecture.

The control of the right application of medical protocols is a key issue in hospital environments. For the automated monitoring of medical protocols, we need a domain-independent language for their representation and a fully, or semi, autonomous system ...

Towards a computational model for -1 eukaryotic frameshifting sites.

MOTIVATION: Unconventional decoding events are now well acknowledged, but not yet well formalized. In this study, we present a bioinformatics analysis of eukaryotic -1 frameshifting, in order to model this event. RESULTS: A consensus model has already ...

Use of latent semantic analysis for predicting psychological phenomena: two issues and proposed solutions.

Latent semantic analysis (LSA) is a computational model of human knowledge representation that approximates semantic relatedness judgments. Two issues are discussed that researchers must attend to when evaluating the utility of LSA for predicting ...

On learning to estimate the block directional image of a fingerprint using a hierarchical neural network.

This paper presents a hierarchical neural network architecture for computing fingerprints block directional images. Two separately trained neural networks are connected in series. First, the fingerprint image is divided into 16x16 blocks, each block is ...
