Classification Case Studies Samples For Students

Ms. Griffin was diagnosed with left-sided heart failure 8 years ago related to decades of uncontrolled hypertension. She is in skilled nursing care on oxygen by nasal cannula 24 hours a day. Ms. Griffin remains in bed or in a wheelchair because she has episodes of angina and dyspnea even at rest. Her weight has dropped from 160 pounds to 93 pounds over the past 2 years. Recently she had a “PEG” (percutaneous esophageal gastrostomy) feeding tube inserted.

Overrun Accident of The American Airlines Flight 1420

Abstract
The American Airlines accident Flight 1420 is identified as a runway overrun accident. The National Transportation Safety Board conducted an investigation to find the cause. This project is primarily focused on the human factor issue that might have caused the accident. The project explored the Human Factor Analysis and Classification System and used the Swiss Cheese Model to link the chain of events to determine the cause of the accident.
The Human Factor Analysis and Classification System was used by the National Transportation Safety Board to analyze the human factors issues within American Airlines Flight 1420. This system ...

Application of Neural Networks in Medicine

Artificial Neural Networks are extremely parallel, distributed processing systems that using new computational technology founded on the analogy of human information processing system. Artificial neural networks exhibit the propensity to save previous knowledge and after learning it make it available for use for future computations. Artificial Neural Networks have been defined as extraordinarily connected network of simple processing elements known as neurons. ANN has been applied in a number of fields including pattern recognition, classification, function approximation and testing (G. Schaefer).Predicting drug-target interactions using restricted Boltzmann machines
In silico prediction of drug target interaction is an important study ...

Introduction

In the wake of multiple aircraft disappearances and accidents, the aviation safety remains a great challenge within the aviation industry today. Human roles on the flight deck, maintenance and inspection are seen to be the leading contributors of most aircraft related accidents. Aviation maintenance and inspection procedures are part of a complex organization where most individuals undertake varied tasks in an environment characterized by time pressures, insignificant and sparse feedback as well as difficult ambient conditions such as poor lighting, long day and night shifts. These situational characteristics and other human erring tendencies have resulted in varied forms of ...

Question one: What is the etiology of JIA?

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a common type of arthritis affecting children below the age of 17. The condition relates more to malfunctioning of the immune system that targets the lining of the synovial membrane found in the joints causing an inflammation and later damages the joints. Medical professionals and disease experts are yet to establish the etiology of JIA; however, the condition is highly linked to genes transfer. JIA is not a hereditary disease because it rarely affects more than one person in the family. Multiple genes play a significant role in the onset and manifestations of JIA. ...

Introduction

Almost all of the commercial airplane accidents that have been reported in the past are caused by human error which accounts for approximately 70% of the accidents (Griffin et al., 2015). Hence, it is important to appreciate the fact that human error is recently becoming a principal concern not only to flight operations but in the maintenance practices as well as air traffic control. The above concern has made the major airlines to employ human factor professionals who work closely with the engineers and pilots to embrace innovation on human performance as well as the airplanes to help enhance ...

Based on the three customer personas, which customer segment should Ontela target?

The company should concentrate its energy on the promotion of application to persona 1 (Sarah, the Parent). First of all, the segment of parents after 40 years is quite wide.

However, parents always want to see children’s development, and memories are very important for them. Unfortunately, there is no never-ending memory on devices, so to store photos, which size is quite volume, makes it problematic to take new ones before transfer them to bigger space. The category of ...
