Improving the Performance of a Fuzzy Logic Model in Seismic Damage Prediction using a Guided Adaptive Search-based Particle Swarm Optimization ALGORITHM [PDF]
مهندسی عمران شریف, 2023 This paper proposes a fuzzy logic model to improve the accuracy of seismic damageability simulations for buildings. The Rapid Visual Screening (RVS) method is often used to evaluate seismic damages in buildings due to its speed and simplicity, but it can

Rapid confrontation screening for peripheral visual field defects and extinction [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 2009 Screening for unsuspected visual field defects should form a part of all routine eye examinations. Here, we review a procedure for finger-counting confrontation screening that tests the periphery of all visual field quadrants of each eye, yet requires a total of only four responses from the patient.

Quantitative Screening of Cervical Cancers for Low-Resource Settings: Pilot Study of Smartphone-Based Endoscopic Visual Inspection After Acetic Acid Using Machine Learning Techniques [PDF]
, 2020 Background: Approximately 90% of global cervical cancer (CC) is mostly found in low- and middle-income countries. In most cases, CC can be detected early through routine screening programs, including a cytology-based test.

Seismic assessment of buildings by rapid visual screening procedures [PDF]
WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 93, 2007 Recently, several pre-earthquake screening methods have been developed in order to rapidly evaluate the vulnerability profile of the existing building stock, which has been constructed before or after the adoption and enforcement of seismic codes. The objective of these methods is to identify, inventory and rank all high-risk buildings in a specified ...
