In 2009, the U.S. News and World Report magazine named Mayo Clinic a best hospital for 20th straight year, and ranked number 2 in the Honor Roll. In this paper, the basic reason of success of Mayo Clinic is studied by use of the concept of systems ethics. The initial development of systems ethics in Taiwan is presented first. Then, a brief review of the history of Mayo Clinic is made. Finally, the...
Summary form only given. Healthcare can be considered to be a service system. Indeed, the engineering of healthcare must recognize the fact that any service system is actually a complex integration of human-centered activities that is increasingly dependent on information technology and knowledge. In general, a service system can be considered to be a combination or recombination of three essential...
It is possible to get gene expression data relatively inexpensively from micro-arrays. So, this leads to hope that the genes can tell us who will get or has a disease. Perhaps one can find the stage of the disease to enable effective treatments. However, we are currently at the stage where there are many challenges to evaluating the possibilities for genes to be used in diagnosis and treatment. There...
Summary form only given. Usually, solutions to sensor validation fall into two major categories: the data-based approaches and the model-based approaches. Model-based methods include nonparametric and parametric approaches. Belonging to the first category are neural-network-bank based approaches. The non-parametric methods are more robust, but a large number of training data are needed nevertheless...
On behalf of the Taiwan Association of System Science and Engineering (TASSE), and the Organizing and Program Committees, it is our greatest pleasure to welcome you to the conference: the International Conference on System Science and Engineering (ICSSE 2010), held here at National Taipei University of Technology (NTUT) in Taipei, Taiwan during July 1–3, 2010. As we all agree upon, technology advancements...
With the reinforcement of environmental protection in many countries, the green revolution has being popular all over the world. As the traditional industry in our country, textile industry is facing a stage of transition and transformation. The paper analyzes the greening from two aspects, namely macro perspective and micro perspective. From the macro perspective, it should greening the textile industry...
Ecological footprint model is an important means for quantitative evaluation of eco-city, to get rid of the defect of general ecological footprint model; we proposed a modified model by using emergy theory. In the calculation of ecological carrying capacity, we added the carrying capacity of actual product output and virtual product supply based on the material input-output and people's initiative;...
Emergy analysis system was established for eco-campus, different types of emergy can be unified into a comparable value; through analysis, the range reflects the economic environment and emergy indicators. It combines socio-economic system with natural system to form comparable entity. Depending on the data of Tianjin Polytechnic University old campus, new campus and Tianjin University, emergy analysis...
This paper introduces the virtual water and the virtual water trade. Based on the input-output theory, we analysis the water consumption features and virtual water trade of the national economy and industry of Tianjin. We analysis the water feature by the direct water input coefficient, the total water input coefficient and the water coefficient of added value, and analysis the virtual water trade...
Since 1978' reforming and opening up, the economy has been in transition in China which accelerated the institutional changing as well as economic structure reconstructing and upgrading. In this paper, we apply Multiple Linear Regression analysis the relationship between economic transition and varieties industry development in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai. The conclusion shows, in different scene,...
This paper presents discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and short-time fourier transform (STFT) applications for different industrial applications. These two transforms have been compared in different fields, and their implementations are similar. The experiments and simulations show another aspect for both transforms in order to analyze the target information.
This paper presents the stability analysis for polynomial fuzzy systems by utilizing the equality constraints of sum-of-squares (SOS) Program. Recently, T-S fuzzy systems have been extended to polynomial fuzzy systems, in which the consequent parts could be polynomial sub-systems. Moreover, stability and stabilization analyses for polynomial fuzzy systems have been done based on polynomial Lyapunov...
This paper applies a generalized regression neural network (GRNN) for predicting the friction coefficient of deposited Cr1-xAlxC films on high-speed steel substrates via direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering systems. The Cr1-xAlxC films exhibited some excellent characteristics, such as low friction coefficient, high hardness, and large contact angle. In this study, a GRNN model is applied for predicting...
This paper describes a garment hanger, which can perform 3 kinds of garment inspection: including visual inspection, tension test and cycle test. Visual inspection is to inspect the garment apparent status, i.e. colour, sewing wire, fitting, size and check against the designated sample. A tension is applied to the fabric of the knitted garment to evaluate the fabric strength. Cycle test is to simulate...
In recent, the hybrid algorithm is one of the important approaches applied to classify medical datasets. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm is proposed to classify medical datasets. In the proposed algorithm, scatter search is hybridized with support vector machine (SSHSVM). Furthermore, SSHSVM with feature selection (SSHSVMFS) is applied to boost classification accuracy and select significant...
In this paper, an Fuzzy Markup Language (FML)-based type-2 fuzzy ontology is proposed to represent the computer Go knowledge, including an FML transformation mechanism, a type-2 fuzzy set construction, and a type-2 fuzzy set inference mechanism. The FML transformation mechanism transforms the generated smart game format (SGF) files into an FML-based document to describe the computer Go ontology. The...
