We evaluated measurements of oxygen saturation from four noninvasive pulse oximeters, and two conventional arterial oximeters. Simultaneous measurements were obtained on each instrument on three different occasions in five healthy subjects breathing gas with an FIO2 of 1.00, 0.50, 0.21, 0.17, 0.15, 0.13 and 0.11. Mean bias relative to the sum of oxy-, carboxy-, and methemoglobins ranged from -0...

This paper presents an extension of a multifactor recommendation approach based on user tagging with term neighbours. Neighbours of words in tag vectors and documents provide for hitting larger set of documents and not only those matching with direct tag vectors or content of the documents. Tag popularity, tag representativeness and tag similarity are applied similarly as in the original approa...

The participants were encouraged to utilize different technologies to resolve the issue of focused link discovery. Apart from the 2009 Wikipedia collection, the Te Ara collection was introduced for the first time in INEX. For the link the wiki tasks, 5000 file-to-file topics were randomly s...

Situational interest is the positive affect and sustained attention triggered by particular contexts (Hidi & Renninger, 2006). Some studies show interesting information enhances learning while others find it hinders learning, producing the seductive detail effect. Limited evidence suggests the seductive detail effect is weakened if emotionally interesting information is relevant to main ideas. ...
