Incorporate Credibility into Context for the Best Social Media Answers

In this paper, we focus on the task of identifying the best answer for a usergenerated question in Collaborative Question Answering (CQA) services. Given that most existing research on CQA has focused on non-textual features such as click-through counts which are relatively difficult to access, we examine the effectiveness of diverse content-based features for the task. Specially, we propose to...

How to incorporate clinical experience into evidence-based medicine.

Evidence-based medicine (EBM) represents a paradigm change in the way in which medicine is practiced. On one level, evidence-based medicine is a formalism for integrating “research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values.”5 It is not intended to supplant clinical experience, but rather to augment and strengthen it. There has been a concern voiced within the neurosurgical community t...

Using Design Science Research to Incorporate Gamification into Learning Activities

Gamifying learning activities can be beneficial as it can better engage students and result in improved learning. However, incorporating game elements into learning activities can be difficult because it requires an appropriate mix of science, art, and experience. Design science research can help to address this issue. In particular, its search process for determining an appropriate solution fo...

Strategies to incorporate left atrial appendage occlusion into clinical practice.

The left atrial appendage (LAA) has been identified as a predominant source of thrombus formation leading to significant thromboembolic events in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. Medical therapy to eliminate thrombus formation in the LAA has been the standard of care for several decades, but mechanical approaches designed to exclude the LAA from the circulation have recently been ...
