Abstract:

 ABSTRACT Background: The current practice to measure RV is either by BPG or helium dilution methods which may not be available in all clinics due to their cost. Methods: This paper outlines a method for both direct and indirect calculation of RV via PFT with acceptable sensitivity (81 %, 60% ), specificity (71 %, 94%) and validity (76%, 78%) for obstructive and restrictive lung disease respectively at a much lower cost.

Pattern Recognition and Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) Spirometric Data Prediction by Support Vector Machine

A spirometer is an apparatus for measuring the volume of air inspired and expired by the lungs. Spirometry is one of the most widely applied clinical tests in respiratory medicine to diagnose obstructive and to rule out restrictive pulmonary diseases. A key parameter of spirometric lung function tests is forced vital capacity (FVC) and Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1). In this work, ...

a study on insurer solvency by panel data model: the case of iranian insurance market

the aim of this thesis is an approach for assessing insurer’s solvency for iranian insurance companies. we use of economic data with both time series and cross-sectional variation, thus by using the panel data model will survey the insurer solvency.

Transforming Data by Calculation

This paper addresses the foundations of data-model transformation. A catalog of data mappings is presented which includes abstraction and representation relations and associated constraints. These are justified in an algebraic style via the pointfree-transform, a technique whereby predicates are lifted to binary relation terms (of the algebra of programming) in a two-level style encompassing bo...

modeling loss data by phase-type distribution

بیمه گران همیشه بابت خسارات بیمه نامه های تحت پوشش خود نگران بوده و روش هایی را جستجو می کنند که بتوانند داده های خسارات گذشته را با هدف اتخاذ یک تصمیم بهینه مدل بندی نمایند. در این پژوهش توزیع های فیزتایپ در مدل بندی داده های خسارات معرفی شده که شامل استنباط آماری مربوطه و استفاده از الگوریتم em در برآورد پارامترهای توزیع است. در پایان امکان استفاده از این توزیع در مدل بندی داده های گروه بندی ...

Prediction of Spirometric Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) Data Using Support Vector Regression

In this work, prediction of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in pulmonary function test is carried out using the spirometer and support vector regression analysis. Pulmonary function data are measured with flow volume spirometer from volunteers (N=175) using a standard data acquisition protocol. The acquired data are then used to predict FEV1. Support vector machines with polynomial ...
