Since wavelet analysis is an effective tool for analyzing transient signals, we studied its feature extraction and representation properties for events in electrocardiogram (EKG) data. Significant features of the EKG include the P-wave, the QRS complex, and the T-wave. For this paper the feature that we chose to focus on was the P-wave. Wavelet analysis was used as a pre-processor for a backpro...

Panel discussion section I

Kochukhov: The Doppler imaging problem is intrinsically ill-conditioned. It is not correct to characterize this problem by the number of unknowns. We are using regularization, and regularization effectively introduces a set of additional equations which smoothes the map in our case; in the case of the maximum entropy method, it selects an image with maximum entropy. So actually if I count equat...

There are several advantages to using task-based assessment to determine magnetic field exposures. Job title based assessment is the common approach. A worker’s job title, however, does not necessarily indicate the magnetic field exposure tasks a worker performs. Task-based assessment is more efficient in that there are fewer tasks required to cover a population than job titles. It is easier to...

Discussion: Session I

Background: Bacterial meningitis remains a source of substantial morbidity and mortality in childhood. During the last decades gradual changes have been observed in the epidemiology of bacterial meningitis, related to the introduction of new polysaccharide and conjugate vaccines. The study presents an overview of the epidemiological patterns of acute bacterial meningitis in a tertiary children ...
