The World Health Organization (WHO) publishes classification handbooks for all neoplastic diseases. The last WHO Classification of leukemias and lymphomas was published in 1976. Since that time, through cytogenetics and molecular biology, it has been shown that many hematopoietic neoplasms are associated with a unique genetic profile. Similarly, the development of widely available and routinely...

To improve recognition results, decisions of multiple neural networks can be aggregated into a committee decision. In contrast to the ordinary approach of utilising all neural networks available to make a committee decision, we propose creating adaptive committees, which are specific for each input data point. A prediction network is used to identify classification neural networks to be fused f...

OBJECTIVE To update the guidelines for neck dissection terminology, as previously recommended by the American Head and Neck Society. PARTICIPANTS Committee for Neck Dissection Classification, American Head and Neck Society; representation from the Committee for Head and Neck Surgery and Oncology, American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (T.A.D.). EVIDENCE Review of current l...

introduction: the aim of this research was to determine the effectiveness of instructing hardiness components on anxiety level of national olympic committee personnel. materials and methods: the study was a semi-experimental research. the statistical population included all the personnel of the national olympic committee of islamic republic of iran employed in 2013-2014 who contained 117 indivi...

To improve computer aided diagnosis (CAD) for CT colonography we designed a hybrid classification scheme that uses a committee of support vector machines (SVMs) combined with a genetic algorithm (GA) for variable selection. The genetic algorithm selects subsets of four features, which are later combined to form a committee, with majority vote for classification across the base classifiers. Cros...

Purpose—The aim of this guideline is to provide a focused update of the current recommendations for the endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke. When there is overlap, the recommendations made here supersede those of previous guidelines. Methods—This focused update analyzes results from 8 randomized, clinical trials of endovascular treatment and other relevant data published since 2013....
