This work presents the principles of image recognition, where quality-based methods are applied. The neural networks and additional software have been proposed. This goal was achieved by using non-parametric recognition algorithms. In this paper the two-state hybrid classification method has been proposed, where artificial intelligence algorithm is included. In recognition process, the learning...

properties of The internal criticism of Marx's approach is very simple in principle. One need only be aware that relative value and equivalent are not relevant concepts except when related to determinate agents. In other words, x commodity A => y commodity B concerns only the producer of A. For the producer of B, the relevant description would be x'commodity B => y'commodity A. It is the straig...

We describe the case of a renal transplant recipient who presented with malaise, dry cough, severe weight loss, abdominal pain and watery diarrhoea. The laboratory workup revealed anaemia and elevated C reactive protein. Chest X-ray showed bilateral reticulonodular infiltrates, and computed tomography scan of the chest and abdomen revealed diffuse thickening of the interand intralobular septs, ...

Radiation-induced enteritis is an acute side effect patients may experience when receiving radiation therapy to the pelvis, due to radiation damage to the small bowel. This unwanted effect can be significantly reduced for some patients if their bladder is full when they have treatment, which pushes the small bowel superiorly out of the treatment area. However, bladder volume is hugely variable,...
