Frontal hyper motor seizures can be wrongly diagnosed as agitations. Absence attacks can be mistaken as normal starring. Non convulsive status epilepticus cannot be easily diagnosed or differentiated from other types of coma.

متن کاملA Vibration Damping Optimization Algorithm for Solving the Single-item Capacitated Lot-sizing Problem with Fuzzy Parameters
In this paper, we propose a vibration damping optimization algorithm to solve a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem. At first, a fuzzy mathematical model for the single-item capacitated lot-sizing problem is presented. The possibility approach is chosen to convert the fuzzy mathematical model to crisp mathematical model. The obtained crisp model is in the...
