Gendered dimension of chronic pain patients with low and middle income: A text mining analysis. by Ana M Peiró, Patricia Carracedo, Laura Agulló, Sónia F Bernardes

“…Albeit having similar CNCP severity and interference, women were on average 8 years older, compared to men, with longer referral time from Primary Care, less retired but more homemakers, showing a greater impact on their mental health. The most discriminating word explaining pain impact for CNCP women was "husband", for men was "work", especially among middle income groups. …”

Application of Multitask Joint Sparse Representation Algorithm in Chinese Painting Image Classification by Dongyu Yang, Xinchen Ye, Baolong Guo

“…Experiments show that the multiscale grayscale cooccurrence matrix algorithm outperforms the traditional grayscale cooccurrence matrix algorithm and the color grayscale cooccurrence matrix algorithm. The discriminative ability of multiple features for target recognition is integrated by multitask learning, thus improving the robustness and generalization ability of the algorithm; meanwhile, the recognition accuracy is improved by using a two-level multitask learning mode to exclude the interference of a large number of irrelevant dictionary atoms. …”

An Automatic Web Service Composition Framework Using QoS-Based Web Service Ranking Algorithm by Deivamani Mallayya, Baskaran Ramachandran, Suganya Viswanathan

“…In the Internet era, the exponential addition of web services nominates the “quality of service” as essential parameter in discriminating the web services. In this paper, a user preference based web service ranking (UPWSR) algorithm is proposed to rank web services based on user preferences and QoS aspect of the web service. …”

Volatolomics for Anticipated Diagnosis of Cancers with Chemoresistive Vapour Sensors: A Review by Abhishek Sachan, Mickaël Castro, Jean-François Feller

“…The variety of their formulations offers multiple possibilities to chemical functionalization and conductive architectures that should provide solutions to discriminations and stability issues. A focus will be made on the protocols for the collection of organic volatile compounds (VOC) from the body, the choice of vapour sensors assembled into an array (e-nose), in particular, chemo-resistive vapour sensors, their principle, fabrication and characteristics, and the way to extract pertinent features and analyse them with suitable algorithms that are able to find and produce a health diagnosis.…”

Good practice for assignment of breeds and populations—a review by H. Wilmot, H. Wilmot, N. Gengler

“…After an appropriate quality control of markers and the building of a representative reference population, three main steps can be followed to develop a genomic breed/population assignment tool: 1) The selection of discriminant markers, 2) The development of a model that allows accurate assignment of animals to their breed/population of origin, the so-called classification step, and, 3) The validation of the developed model on new animals to evaluate its performances in real conditions. …”

GGE biplot for stability and adaptability in cashew tree clones by Gilberto Ken Iti Yokomizo, Francisco das Chagas Vidal Neto, Kuang Hongyu, Levi de Moura Barros

“…The clones G1 and G3 for MMC, G15, G2, G14 and G8 for PRE and G3, G10 and G2 for PCP approached the ideotype; the clones identified as top for each characteristic were not coincident; the majority of the clones were stable for MMC, while for PRE and PCP were not stable; the clone G4 had the best average in PRE, but with low stability; in the GGE biplot the environments A3 for MMC, A4 to PRE and A5 for PCP were the most discriminating; all environments had greater contribution in the differentiation of clones in PRE and MMC, for PCP were the environments A4 and A5; in relation at the average representativeness the environments A1 in MMC and A2 for PRE and PCP stood out.…”

Differentiation of modern sub-Saharan African populations: craniometric interpretations in relation to geography and history by Isabelle Ribot

“…Multivariate statistics were performed using up to twelve metric traits. Multiple discriminant function analyses showed that geographical differentiation of populations appeared to be quite variable (41% up to 80.1% individuals correctly classified into their group of origin), depending on the number of groups included and parts of the skull analysed. …”
