Serious fungal infections (SFIs) could be more frequent than are recognised. Estimates of the incidence and prevalence of SFIs are essential in order to identify public health problems. We estimated the rates of SFIs in Mexico, following a methodology similar to that used in prior studies. We obtained information about the general population and populations at risk. A systematic literature sear...

To broaden bioarchaeological applicability of skeletal frailty indices (SFIs) and increase sample size, we propose indices with fewer biomarkers (2-11 non-metric biomarkers) and compare these reduced biomarker SFIs to the original metric/non-metric 13-biomarker SFI. From the 2-11-biomarker SFIs, we choose the index with the fewest biomarkers (6-biomarker SFI), which still maintains the statisti...

The quantification and prediction of inter-agent dependency requirements is one of the main concerns in Agent Oriented Requirements Engineering. To evaluate exertion load of an agent within resource constraints, this work provides a comparative analysis of Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). ANN is widely known due to its capability of learning the...

This paper discusses intercultural communicative competence (ICC) education in the context of Sino-Foreign Institutes (SFIs). Through an overview development internationalization higher China, puts forward four strategies that are widely adopted to facilitate students ICC. The provision ICC specific courses, integration subject with foreign language education, and activities projects. Towards e...

This paper unpacks the continuum of social finance institutions (SFIs), ranging from foundations offering pure grants to banks supplying soft loans. The in-between category includes under-researched “quasi-foundations” granting loans requiring partial repayment. We develop a model under which SFIs maximize their contribution arising financing successful projects, budget constraint dictated by f...

Background: Superficial fungal infections of skin are very common in rural areas of Bangladesh. The prevalence and characteristics of superficial fungal infections (SFIs) vary with age, sex, climatic conditions, lifestyle, and population migration patterns. There is no study in Bangladesh to determine the prevalence and pattern of superficial fungal infection. This study was undertaken to deter...

increasing development of engineering projects construction such as city subway needs appropriate investigation, management and control of groundwater. therefore, precise estimation of hydrogeological parameters such as hydraulic conductivity is the most important factor in studies and modeling of groundwater and geotechnical issues. in recent decades, various laboratory and field methods exist...

Purpose: The purpose this is to understand analyze contemporary issues SFIs paper comprised viewpoints Senior Academicians the system. Methodology:The methodology applied exploratory research, by reviewing relevant literature subject int...

We provide sufficient conditions for a Sugeno integral to be bisymmetric. We explicitly describe bisymmetric Sugeno integrals over chains.
