Singularity and Symmetry Analyses for Tuberculosis Epidemics [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 We analyse the model of Tuberculosis due to Blower (Nature Medecine 1(8) 815-821) from the point of view of symmetry and singularity analysis. From the study we provide a demonstration of the integrability of the model to present an explicit solution.

The Ophthalmic Test for Bovine Tuberculosis [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Pathology and Therapeutics, 1911 Summary Of sixty-eight animals subjected to the combined test (Table I), fifty-four were negative, eight showed both reactions, one was indefinite (both tests), and five disagreed. Of forty-six animals subjected to the simple ophthalmic test (Table II), there was agreement between the two tests in thirty-five cases.

Machine learning augmented diagnostic testing to identify sources of variability in test performance [PDF]
arXivDiagnostic tests which can detect pre-clinical or sub-clinical infection, are one of the most powerful tools in our armoury of weapons to control infectious diseases. Considerable effort has been therefore paid to improving diagnostic testing for human, plant and animal diseases, including strategies for targeting the use of diagnostic tests towards ...

A Data Mining Approach to the Diagnosis of Tuberculosis by Cascading Clustering and Classification [PDF]
Journal of computing, volume 3, issue 4,April 2011, ISSN 2151-9617, 2011 In this paper, a methodology for the automated detection and classification of Tuberculosis(TB) is presented. Tuberculosis is a disease caused by mycobacterium which spreads through the air and attacks low immune bodies easily. Our methodology is based on clustering and classification that classifies TB into two categories, Pulmonary Tuberculosis(PTB ...

THE RELATION OF BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS TO EARLY TUBERCULOSIS IN CHILDREN [PDF]
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1914 It is now generally conceded that infection with the tubercle bacillus is, in the majority of cases, an incident of early life, and that, regardless of the time of development of clinical symptoms, tuberculosis is, in its origin at least, essentially a disease of childhood.
