Falling rule lists are classification models consisting of an ordered list of if-then rules, where (i) the order of rules determines which example should be classified by each rule, and (ii) the estimated probability of success decreases monotonically down the list. These kinds of rule lists are inspired by healthcare applications where patients would be stratified into risk sets and the highes...

Sir, Pituitary infarction following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is rare but may have serious debilitating effects. We present two cases of panhypopituitarism after CABG. BR, 56 years man who presented with repeated falls following CABG done eight months back. Of late he was pleasantly surprised to see wonderfully good glycaemic control, which he was struggling to get before. His BMI ...

Fear of falling (FF) can be considered as a protective response to a real threat, preventing the elderly from performing activities with high risk of falling, but can also lead to a restriction of the activities that will result in a long-term adverse effect on social, physical or cognitive functions. There is a prevalence of FF in 30% in the elderly who have no history of falls, and double tha...

There is a growing interest in simulating natural phenomena in computer graphics applications. Animating natural scenes in real time is one of the most challenging problems due to the inherent complexity of their structure, formed by millions of geometric entities, and the interactions that happen within. An example of natural scenario that is needed for games or simulation programs are forests...

In this study we consider the unsteady separated flow of an inviscid fluid (density ρf ) around a falling flat plate (thickness T , half-chord L, width W , and density ρs) of small thickness and high aspect ratio (T L W ). The motion of the plate, which is initially released from rest, is unknown in advance and is determined as part of the solution. The flow solution is assumed two-dimensional ...

objectives to explore the effect of a selective 10-week corrective exercise with an emphasis on gait training activities (gta) on the number of falls (nofs), fear of falling, functional balance, timed up and go (tug) test among pd patients. background posture instability and unsteady gait disorders in parkinson’s disease (pd) usually contribute to fall-related fractures. fall-related trauma in ...
