Abstract:
ROC curve analysis is often applied to measure the diagnostic accuracy of a biomarker. The analysis results in two gains: diagnostic accuracy of the biomarker and the optimal cut-point value. There are many methods proposed in the literature to obtain the optimal cut-point value. In this study, a new approach, alternative to these methods, is proposed. The proposed approach is based on the value of the area under the ROC curve. This method defines the optimal cut-point value as the value whose sensitivity and specificity are the closest to the value of the area under the ROC curve and the abso

Abstract:
A point in the inverse limit space is said to be a cut point of this space when excluded from it, when the number of the components of that space increases. Therefore, this study aims at finding the necessary condition for fixed points in the inverse limit space to be cut points. Then, for applying the main theorem with some conditions, a sequence of upper semi continuous can be employed as a bonding function to get a union of continua as a generalized inverse limit space if there is a generalized inverse limit for each of them separately.

Background: Release of cytokines in sepsis can cause left heart failure and left ventricular sys­tolic dysfunction (LVSD). In sepsis, there is a releasing of Procalcitonin (PCT) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) because of the stimulation of cytokine pro inflammation affected by activated NF-kB. This study aimed to examine PCT as a predictor of LVSD in sepsis, the value of Area Under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, cut off point, and a probability of PCT and TNF-α as a predictor of LVSD, and then to identify the best diagnostic predictor of LVSD.Subjects and Method: This was a cro

Abstract:
Single point incremental forming (SPIF) has been demonstrated to accomplish current trends and requirements in industry. Recent studies have applied this technology to hole-flanging by performing different forming strategies using one or multiple stages. In this work, an optimization procedure is proposed to balance fabrication time and thickness distribution along the produced flange in a two-stage variant. A detailed analytical, numerical and experimental investigation is carried out to provide, evaluate and corroborate the optimal strategy. The methodology begins by analysing the single-sta

This paper introduces, as a proof of concept, a tool chain for automated control and simulation of a robot team in the domain of production of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers. The starting point is a CAD construction of a simple aviation component from which single cut pieces of carbon fiber, together withtheir properties, are extracted. Using this information and the layout of a given robot cell, various possibilities of assignments of cut pieces to grippers and robots or robot teams are determined. Subsequently, two approaches using an PDDL solver are introduced, with the goal of finding a
