The selection of antipsychotics as medications used primarily for treating schizophrenia and disorders similar to schizophrenia is an important aspect of the treatment of forensicpatients. This study examines the effect of antipsychotics selection (typical or atipycal) on the level of aggressiveness, side effects and the hospitalisation length. The research is conducted on 98 psychiatric patien...

The definition of a Life Cycle Assesment (LCA) for a building or an urban area is a complex task due to the inherent complexity of all the elements that must be considered. Furthermore, a multidisciplinary approach is required due to the different sources of knowledge involved in this project. This multidisciplinary approach makes it necessary to use formal language to fully represent the compl...

The Maximum a posteriori hypothesis is treated as the decoded truth in speech recognition. However, since the word recognition accuracy is not 100%, it is desirable to have an independent con dence measure on how good the maximum a posteriori hypothesis is relative to the spoken truth for some applications. E orts are in progress [1, 2, 3] to develop such con dence measures with the intent of a...

In this paper we assess rigid body co-registration in terms of residual motion artifacts for the different correlation approaches used in fMRI. We summarise, from a statistical perspective, the three main approaches to parametric fMRI analysis and then present a new way of visualising motion effects in correlation analysis. This technique can be used both to select regions of relatively unambig...

High resolution remote sensing (HR RS) images allow discriminating between different objects in a scene. Spatial reasoning techniques can be used to interpret and describe the scene. One component of spatial reasoning deals with the modeling and assesment of spatial relations among objects. In this work we propose three models that seize the semantics of the spatial relations “to go across” and...
