Original scientific paper The paper deals with the comparison of usage of three basic types of neural units in order to create the most suitable model predicting determining the final thickness of the alumina layer formed at surface with current density of 1 A∙dm. In addition, the reliability of obtained prediction models, depending on the amount of training data, has been monitored. With prope...

We studied ocular surface pH in 161 subjects. The mean pH for 133 normal volunteers was 7 . 11, SD 1 . 5. We found that older women had a more alkaline pH than other subjects, that the pH shifted from acid to alkaline during the day, that one hour of eyelid closure caused an acid shift in pH, and that pH recovered to baseline values within 40 minutes after acid drop instillation. We explored th...

This paper describes a technique for the construction of 2D mosaics and which integrates feature tracking with a direct registration procedure. An initial alignment computed from a set of feature point correspondences supplied by the tracker is subsequently refined by means of a second registering step directly based on image contents. The direct registration technique is implemented as a two-s...

This is a continuing attempt in a series of papers KM 93, Mur 93, Mur 94] to show how computer-represented knowledge can be arranged as elements of an eeectively represented semantic domain in the sense of GS 90]. We present a direct deductive description of the domain, which was deened semantically in KM 93], via the Scott's notion of information system. Also, the internal structure of the con...
