introduction: the review of medical records with the aim of assessing the quality of codes has long been conducted in different countries. auditing medical coding, as an instructive approach, could help to review the quality of codes objectively using defined attributes, and this in turn would lead to improvement of the quality of codes. method: the current study aimed to present a model for au...

This research proposes the use of an IPMAP for providing metadata about the source and processing of primary data, in order to enhance its believability and fitnessfor-use. We then derive a framework for assessing data quality-in-use from dual-process theories of human cognition. By applying a dual-process approach to data quality assessment, the model enables simultaneous evaluation of both ob...

New technology is continuously proposed in the printing technology, and as a result the need to perform quality assessment is increasing. Subjective assessment of quality is tiresome and expensive, the use of objective methods have therefore become more and more popular. One type of objective assessment that has been subject for extensive research is image quality metrics. However, so far no on...

This paper addresses the need for a manageable method of evaluating the overall image quality of hardcopy output from printer systems so that the systems can be compared in a meaningful way. Image quality metrics are widely used and are very objective, but are unsuitable for this purpose because there is no good way of extracting overall image quality from the large number of possible metrics. ...

This paper describes the status and technical progress of the INCITS W1.1 Text and Line Quality ad hoc team. The team has defined the scope of the work and developed several perceptual sub-attributes which comprise the Text Quality and Line Quality attributes, together with preliminary drafts of test patterns suitable for their quantification.

Fat hardness/softness directly affects efficiency of processing and fat also contributes to the desirable eating attributes of meat. In terms of meat quality, fat quality attributes of colour, hardness and texture are important for certain markets. The quality of fat can markedly affect the carcase value at the wholesale level—particularly that for the Japanese market, which prefers soft white ...

We address the fundamental question: what does it mean for data in a database to be of high quality? We motivate our discussion with examples, where traditional views on data quality are found to be unsatisfactory. Our work is founded on the premise that data values are primarily linguistic signs that convey meaning from their producer to their user through senses and referents. In this setting...
