Quantitative multiple criteria decision aid (MCDA) methods of evaluation gain increasing popularity among researchers. The idea of the methods is to comprise values ofcriteria characterising each object into a single non-dimensional cumulative criterion,

Normalisation by Evaluation for Type Theory, in Type Theory [PDF]
We develop normalisation by evaluation (NBE) for dependent types based on presheaf categories. Our construction is formulated in the metalanguage of type theory using quotient inductive types.

A compiled implementation of normalisation by evaluation [PDF]
AbstractWe present a novel compiled approach to Normalisation by Evaluation (NBE) for ML-like languages. It supports efficient normalisation of open λ-terms with respect to β-reduction and rewrite rules. We have implemented NBE and show both a detailed formal model of our implementation and its verification in Isabelle.

Selection of Novel Reference Genes by RNA-Seq and Their Evaluation for Normalising Real-Time qPCR Expression Data of Anthocyanin-Related Genes in Lettuce and Wild Relatives [PDF]
Lettuce is a popular vegetable source of bioactive compounds, like anthocyanins, powerful antioxidants present in red and semi-red varieties. Selection of reliable reference genes (RGs) for the normalization of real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) data is crucial to obtain accurate gene expression results. Among the genes with totally unrelated biological

Coherence and normalisation-by-evaluation for bicategorical cartesian closed structure [PDF]
We present two proofs of coherence for cartesian closed bicategories. Precisely, we show that in the free cartesian closed bicategory on a set of objects there is at most one structural 2-cell between any parallel pair of 1-cells. We thereby reduce the difficulty of constructing structure in arbitrary cartesian closed bicategories to the level of 1 ...

Factors influencing normalisation and sustainment of the Birmingham Symptom-specific Obstetric Triage System (BSOTS): a qualitative implementation evaluation study with UK maternity health professionals [PDF]
Background Maternity triage is the emergency portal to access maternity services for pregnant or newly postnatal women experiencing unexpected complications or concerns. Traditionally women were seen in the order in which they attended maternity services

A Continuous Quality Improvement Intervention to Improve Antenatal HIV Care Testing in Rural South Africa: Evaluation of Implementation in a Real-World Setting [PDF]
BackgroundWe evaluated continuous quality improvement (CQI) targeting antenatal HIV care quality in rural South Africa using a stepped-wedge cluster-randomised controlled trial (Management and Optimisation of Nutrition, Antenatal, Reproductive, Child ...

On Sessions and Infinite Data [PDF]
We define a novel calculus that combines a call-by-name functional core with session-based communication primitives. We develop a typing discipline that guarantees both normalisation of expressions and progress of processes and that uncovers an ...

A Modular Type-checking algorithm for Type Theory with Singleton Types and Proof Irrelevance [PDF]
We define a logical framework with singleton types and one universe of small types. We give the semantics using a PER model; it is used for constructing a normalisation-by-evaluation algorithm.
