We present the basic framework of a task-oriented computer vision system, called TEA, that uses Bayes nets and a maximum expected utility decision rule. Knowledge about the scene and about the nature of the specific task given to the system are represented in Bayes nets . We introduce a new kind of Bayes net, called an expected area net, that models both geometric relations between objects and ...

This document defines a new protocol element, the Internationalized Resource Identifier (IRI), as a complement to the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). An IRI is a sequence of characters from the Universal Character Set (Unicode/ISO 10646). A mapping from IRIs to URIs is defined, which means that IRIs can be used instead of URIs, where appropriate, to identify resources. The approach of defini...

During last decades, owing to the increase in a number of vehicles, the rate of accident occurrence grows significantly. Efforts must be made to provide efficient tools to prioritize segments requiring safety improvement and identify influential factors on accidents. This objective of the research was to determine the safety oriented threshold of International Roughness Index (IRI) to recognize...

Interschema relationship identification (IRI), that is, determining the relationships among schema elements in heterogeneous data sources, is an important step in integrating the data sources. This article proposes a cluster analysis based approach to semi-automating the IRI process, which is typically very time-consuming and requires extensive human interaction. The authors apply multiple clus...

Introduction: Vaccination has been the most effective human intervention in alleviating human sufferings and death. Vaccine production in Iran has a long history however, in the face of a changing global landscape, it requires a new roadmap for research, development and production in the coming decades. Methods: This document was drafted based on Article A of the “Comprehensive National S...

objective(s):acute kidney injury (aki), a syndrome characterized by decreased glomerular filtration, occurs in every 1 of 5 hospitalized patients.  renal ischemia-reperfusion, one of the main causes of aki, is of particular importance in the setting of kidney transplantation. materials and methods: sixty male rats were divided into four groups including control, nephrectomy, sham surgery and re...
