Classifying Crystal Structures of Binary Compounds AB through Cluster Resolution Feature Selection and Support Vector Machine Analysis
Download2016
Adutwum, Lawrence A. , Harynuk, James, Mar, Arthur, Oliynyk, Anton O.
Partial least-squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and support vector machine (SVM) techniques were applied to develop a crystal structure predictor for binary AB compounds. Models were trained and validated on the basis of the classification of 706 AB compounds adopting the seven most common...

The Resident Assessment Instrument-Minimum Data Set 2.0 Quality Indicators : A Systematic Review
Download2010
Johnson, C., Teare, G., Milke, D., Hutchinson, A.M., Maisey, S., Squires, J.E., Estabrooks, C.A.
Background: The Resident Assessment Instrument-Minimum Data Set (RAI-MDS) 2.0 is designed to collect the minimum amount of data to guide care planning and monitoring for residents in long-term care settings. These data have been used to compute indicators of care quality. Use of the quality...
