This work presents an extension of the Eindhoven Classification Model to sort adverse events root causes for the Educational Sector. Extended Logic Programming was used for knowledge representation and reasoning with defective information, allowing for the modelling of the universe of discourse in terms of default data, information and knowledge. Indeed, a systematization of the evolution process of the body of...
The identification, classification and recording of events that may lead to the deterioration of buildings are crucial for the development of appropriate repair strategies. This work presents an extension of the Eindhoven Classification Model to sort adverse events root causes for Building Conservation. Logic Programming was used for knowledge representation and reasoning, letting the modelling of the universe ...
Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) studies are increasingly popular among clinicians and researchers as they provide unique insights into brain network connectivity. However, in order to optimize the use of DTI, several technical and methodological aspects must be factored in. These include decisions on: acquisition protocol, artifact handling, data quality control, reconstruction algorithm, and visualization appro...
Background: In 2000, the Institute of Medicine reported alarming data on the scope and impact of medical errors calling the public attention. One solution to this problem is the adoption of adverse event reporting and learning systems that can help to identify hazards and risks. The accumulation of potentially relevant data in databases contributes little to quality improvement. It is crucial to apply models to...
Presently, the concerns related to the buildings energy consumption are greater, emerging in this way the need to incorporate materials in the construction products which aim the improvement of the energetic efficiency f buildings. Therefore, the application of phase change materials appears as a possible solution in an attempt to solve, or at least minimize, the massive energetic consumption related with build...
Em 2000, o relatório do Instituto da Medicina, “To Err Is Human: Building A Safer Health System”, captou a atenção da opinião pública ao relevar a magnitude do problemática do erro médico e da inerente segurança do doente: cerca de 44 000 a 98 000 pessoas morrem por ano nos Estados Unidos da América devido a erros médicos. Actualmente, verifica-se um crescente interesse na gestão do risco na área médica, em par...
Currently, interpretation of medical images is almost exclusively made by specialized physicians. Although, the next decades will most certainly be of change and computer-aided diagnosis systems will play an important role in the reading process. Assisted interpretation of medical images has become one of the major research subjects in medical imaging and diagnostic radiology. From a methodological point of vie...
Medical reports contain valuable information, not only for the patient that waits for the results but also the latent knowledge that is possible to extract from them. The recent introduction of standard structured formats like the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine Structured Report and the Clinical Document Architecture Health Level Seven provide an efficient generation, distribution, and managemen...
O ensino baseado na Web, utilizando Sistemas Tutoriais Inteligentes (STIs), é considerado um dos mais bem sucedidos empreendimentos da Inteligência Artificial. Na verdade, há uma longa lista de STIs já testados e que demonstraram facilitar o processo de aprendizagem, entre os quais se encontram os que respondem por disciplinas como a Álgebra, Geometria, Línguas e Informática. Estes STIs utilizam uma grande vari...
This paper presents a solution to minimize a problem that normally arises from the huge amount of images that a radiologist usually has to interpret. A multi-agent system that implements a multi-display for medical imaging based on computer clustering of normal personal computers is therefore described, as well as the multi-agent architecture that caters for the system evolution. An evaluation study was perform...
