Predicting Grain Protein Content of Winter Wheat

The objective of this paper is to propose to use a new Improved Particle Filtering (IPF) based on minimizing Kullback-Leibler divergence for crop models' predictions. The performances of the method are compared with those of the conventional Particle Filtering (PF) at a complex crop model (AZODYN) to predict an important winter-wheat quality criterion, namely the grain protein content. Furtherm...

DHSS waiting list statistics--a major deception?

It has been suggested recently that the Department of Health and Social Security's instructions for collecting National Health Service waiting list statistics in England and Wales' contain anomalies as a result of the exclusion of several categories of patients awaiting surgery.2 The aim of this study was to quantify the anomalies in one district general hospital and to assess their effect in d...

“Winter” at Yale

The history of the Yale School of Medicine is illuminated by the names of many great men. A distinguished school is a living organism and the soul which inspires and guides it has been created by the dreams and the visions which have gone before. In the Yale School of Medicine, no one of our distinguished leaders has played a greater role in this creative process than Milton Winternitz. When "W...
