This was based on travel data from the Danish National Travel Survey (see Brems and Munch, 20 updated and specified data extracted for the study population) and police-reported accident data from Statistics Denmark.
39 40 The RR of injuries was therefore calculated from the accident rate per million kilometres travelled by bicycle versus car, based on register and survey data (see Brems and Munch 20 (updated and specified data extracted for the study population) and statistics Denmark 21).
In this project, researchers and clinicians collaborated and agreed to enter specified data points on for each patient on a prospective basis, which then allowed for stratification of patients by several relevant clinical and demographic factors, which in turn facilitated investigation of risk factors for primary outcomes, such as avascular necrosis, in this rare-disease population.
Overall, 52.2% of the patients were classified as lcSSc, 36.9% as dcSSc, 6.8% as overlap SSc/mixed connective tissue disease, and 4.1% had other diseases (eg, systemic lupus erythematosus, dermatomyositis, vasculitis or SSc not further specified) (data were missing for 44 patients).
Ontologies are critically important for specifying data of interest in a consistent manner, thereby enabling unambiguous data aggregation, analysis and exchange.
This research applies a new heuristic combined with a genetic algorithm (GA) to the task of logic minimization for incompletely specified data, with both single and multi-outputs, using the Generalized Reed Muller (GRM) equation form.
Ethical approval of the study was received in advance from the Institutional Review Board at Duke University (Protocol A0009); an exemption was granted for the specified data collection methods and procedures and informed written consent was therefore neither required nor obtained.
We have developed an extended HDFS uploading framework RBBD to allow users to specify data semantics for data-intensie analysis applications.
The notion of spacetime provides an integrated abstraction for seamlessly expressing event detection and data collection as well as consistently specifying data collection for both the past and future in arbitrary spatiotemporal resolutions.
