In the United States, healthcare-associated infections are a huge source of medical and
economic burden. Annually, there are 1.7 million cases of healthcare-associated infection in
U.S. hospitals, which cause an estimated 98,987 deaths. Direct medical cost is also massive,
estimated…

Well-known methods for solving the shape-from-shading problem require knowledge of the reflectance map. Here we show how the shape-from-shading problem can be solved when the reflectance map is not available, but is known to have a given form with some…

Morphological analysis requires knowledge of the stems, affixes, combnatory patterns, and spelling-change processes of a language. The computational difficulty of the task can be clarified by investigating the computational characteristics of specific models of morphologial processing. The use of finite-state…

El trabajo realizado a continuación tiene como objetivo construir un programa psicoeducativo dirigido a pacientes con diagnóstico de bipolaridad en fase tardía, para posibilitar un mejor manejo y pronóstico del trastorno. Se trabajó utilizando la revisión bibliográfica como base teórica…

This paper demonstrates that it is possible to generate a reasonably accurate coordinate system on randomly distributed processors, using only local information and local communication. By coordinate systems we imply that each element assigns itself a logical coordinate that maps…

Investigamos la posibilidad de obtener patrones semánticos a gran escala para cualquier lengua usando solamente análisis superficial y generalizaciones semánticas básicas. Siendo este un experimento exploratorio sólo hemos realizado una evaluación cualitativa. Hemos comparado varios patrones semánticos de traducción de…

This study aimed to trace the development of the implementation of knowledge management initiatives in the public sector institutions in Jordan. The study was compared with precedent study had been conducted in 2004. The results showed there is very little…

El tema se eligió en base a la necesidad de saber que centros de desarrollo infantil toman en cuenta la enseñanza de los niños y su aprendizaje en forma global e integral, por esta razón se eligió el centro infantil…

At a time when it is clear that climate change adaptation and mitigation are failing, this book examines how our assumptions about (valid and usable) knowledge are preventing effective climate action. Through a cross-disciplinary, empirically-based analysis of climate science and…
