Mining predecessor–successor rules from DAG data

Data mining extracts implicit, previously unknown, and potentially useful information from databases. Many approaches have been proposed to extract information, and one of the most important ones is finding association rules. Although a large amount of research has been devoted to this subject, none of it finds association rules from directed acyclic graph (DAG) data. Without such a mining method, the hidden knowledge, if any, cannot be discovered from the databases storing DAG data such as family genealogy profiles, product structures, XML documents, task precedence relations, and course structures. In this article, we define a new kind of association rule in DAG databases called the predecessor–successor rule, where a node x is a predecessor of another node y if we can find a path in DAG where x appears before y. The predecessor–successor rules enable us to observe how the characteristics of the predecessors influence the successors. An approach containing four stages is proposed to discover the predecessor–successor rules. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Int Syst 21: 621–637, 2006.     

A distributed adverse drug reaction detection system using intelligent agents with a fuzzy recognition‐primed decision model

Discovering unknown adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in postmarketing surveillance as early as possible is highly desirable. Nevertheless, current postmarketing surveillance methods largely rely on spontaneous reports that suffer from serious underreporting, latency, and inconsistent reporting. Thus these methods are not ideal for rapidly identifying rare ADRs. The multiagent systems paradigm is an emerging and effective approach to tackling distributed problems, especially when data sources and knowledge are geographically located in different places and coordination and collaboration are necessary for decision making. In this article, we propose an active, multiagent framework for early detection of ADRs by utilizing electronic patient data distributed across many different sources and locations. In this framework, intelligent agents assist a team of experts based on the well‐known human decision‐making model called Recognition‐Primed Decision (RPD). We generalize the RPD model to a fuzzy RPD model and utilize fuzzy logic technology to not only represent, interpret, and compute imprecise and subjective cues that are commonly encountered in the ADR problem but also to retrieve prior experiences by evaluating the extent of matching between the current situation and a past experience. We describe our preliminary multiagent system design and illustrate its potential benefits for assisting expert teams in early detection of previously unknown ADRs. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An antiplane problem of double period non-uniform crisscross distribution crack field

In this paper the antiplane problem of double period non-uniform crisscross cracks is investigated. The centers of cracks are on the tops of the isosceles triangles.Using the method of conformal mapping and elliptical function the solution in closed form has been obtained, thereby the stress intensity factor is derived.

Résumé Dans ce travail, on étudie le problème antiplanaire constitué par des séries de fissures non uniformes à périodicité double et susceptibles de se croiser. On suppose que les centres des fissures de deux rangées successives sont situés aux sommets de triangles isocèles.En utilisant la méthode de représentation conforme et des fonctions elliptiques, on obtient une solution sous une forme fermée, qui permet de déduire le facteur d'intensité de contrainte.

     

大透距电磁波CT法在电站坝基勘查中的应用

跨孔电磁波CT法在勘查岩溶方面大有可为。在西南某电站坝基勘查中,成功地应用了跨孔电磁波CT法,分别在左坝肩和右坝肩中所探查的二对孔间,圈出了岩溶的发育范围。所提交的资料已得到钻探、平硐勘探资料、声波和数字摄像的据互相印证。为进一步施工提供了较好的指导作用。本次勘查使用的是最新型的JW—5Q型大功率仪器和新版的处理软件,并成功地使用高频穿透98m地层,是一次很成功的应用。
