COMET: the approach of a project in evaluating toxicity
نویسندگان
چکیده
The European Commission has funded COMET (Computerized Molecular Evaluation of Toxicity), a project to evaluate the possibility to predict a series of toxic and ecotoxic endpoints. This research will focus on the relationship between chemicals and their toxic and ecotoxic effects investigated through updated computerized approaches. The major objective of COMET is to extract as much as possible information from toxicity and ecotoxicity databases and suitable molecular descriptors, using advanced computer approaches such as fuzzy logic, ANN, EA, rule learning algorithms and AI.

A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach with Interval Numbers for Evaluating Project Risk Responses
The risk response development is one of the main phases in the project risk management that has major impacts on a large-scale project’s success. Since projects are unique, and risks are dynamic through the life of the projects, it is necessary to formulate responses of the important risks. Conventional approaches tend to be less effective in dealing with the imprecise of the risk response deve...
متن کاملDeveloping a conceptual model based upon the Latin Hypercube Sampling for integrating OHS into project risk evaluation
Abstract Project management in construction industry, in many cases, is imperfect with respect to the integration of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) risks. This imperfection exhibits itself as complications affecting the riskiness of industrial procedures and is illustrated usually by poor awareness of OHS within project teams. Difficulties on OHS regularly came about in the construction i...
