water quality assessment provides a scientific basis for water resources development and management. this case study proposes a factor analysis- hopfield neural network model (fhnn) based on factor analysis method and hopfield neural network method. the results showed that the factor analysis (fa) technique was introduced to identify important water quality parameters. results revealed that bio...

introduction: patients' satisfaction (ps) is one of the important indicators of emergency care quality and outcomes of health care services. some researchers believe that improve the work processes and hospital quality are not possible without caring to comments, requirements, expectations, and satisfaction of patients. the percent study was aimed to assess the emergency department (ed) ps of p...

the number of vegetable processing plants has been increased during recent years in iran as many other countries. on the other hand, fresh vegetable products are susceptible to microbial contamination after harvest, processing, handling, packing and distribution. the aim of this study was to determine and evaluate the level of microbial load of vegetables during different cleaning steps in a fr...

This paper proposes a methodology to assess the quality of generalisation. Generalisation consists in representing in a simplified way a geographic space, according to the scale and to the objectives of the map. The automation of this process makes the derivation of data easier, but the data quality of the results is often not evaluated. This paper deals with the definition of generalisation ev...

Industrial databases and information systems are plagued by a plethora of quality issues especially in cooperative information systems under the use of external data files because of the lack of collaboration in internal integration processes of marketing and sales data which is still a biggest challenge facing businesses, and, above all, the lack of benchmarks and tools standardizing for the e...

Image quality evaluation plays an important role in the design of many Hewlett Packard products, including imaging peripherals such as digital cameras, scanners, printers and displays. This chapter describes some of the engineering tools my colleagues and I are developing at Hewlett Packard Laboratories to help us evaluate how our customers perceive the image quality of our products. The engine...

This paper proposes a method to evaluate the size quality as well as the shape quality of constrained surface meshes, the constraint being either a given metric or the geometric metric associated with the surface geometry. In the context of numerical simulations, the metric speci cations are those related to the nite element method. The proposed measures allow to validate the surface meshes wit...
