identification of pediatric severe sepsis by research and clinical definitions in the SPROUT international point prevalence study

, in astronomy, multi-terabyte time series datasets are the norm. Most current algorithms faced with data which cannot fit in main memory resort to multiple scans of the disk/tape and are thus intractable. In this work we show how one particular definition of unusual time series, the time series discord, can

Outranking methods propose an original way to build a preference relation between alternatives evaluated on several attributes that has a definite ordinal flavor. Indeed, most of them appeal the concordance / non-discordance principle that leads to declaring that an alternative is “superior

. In this article I show how quantum discord is different from quantum entanglement from a pedagogical point of view. I begin with a pedagogical introduction to quantum entanglement and quantum discord, followed by a historical review of quantum discord. Next, I give a novel definition of quantum discord in terms

Abstract. The problem of finding anomaly has received much attention recently. However, most of the anomaly detection algorithms depend on an explicit definition of anomaly, which may be impossible to elicit from a domain expert. Using discords as anomaly detectors is useful since less parameter

Abstract. Among various definitions of quantum correlations, quantum discord has attracted considerable attention. The connection between the quantum discord and the entanglement of formation is described by Koashi-Winter relation. We investigate this relation from the viewpoint of the quantum

SUMMARY A case is reported of monozygotic triplets, discordant for phenotypic sex, in which the female presented at birth with the features of Turner's syndrome. Chromosomal analyses showed homogeneous 46,XY karyotypes in the lymphocytes of the three sibs, while a 45,X non-mosaic chromosome

Background: Evolutionary studies are complicated by discordance between gene trees and the species tree in which they evolved. Dealing with discordant trees often relies on comparison costs between gene and species trees, including the well-established Robinson-Foulds, gene duplication, and deep

declines with age, using the fixed ratio of 0.70 leads to overdiagnosis of COPD in older populations and underdiagnosis among young adults. Objective. To evaluate whether discordant obstructive cases (FEV1/FVC < 0.70 but ≥LLN) are a healthy population or have clinical features that would place them

We show the special dynamic characteristic of Gaussian quantum discord, exhibited by two-mode Gaussian symmetric squeezed thermal states (STS) in continuous-variable (CV) systems with a common non-Markovian environment, is definitely different from Markov processes. We demonstrate that Gaussian
