Normal and Tangetial Components: Problem Solving

437
Consider a man with a mass of 70 kg seated in a chair connected to a pin support through a member BC. If the man maintains an upright position, the task is to determine the horizontal and vertical reactions of the chair on the man when the member makes a 45° angle with the horizontal. At this moment, the man has a speed of 5 m/s, increasing at a rate of 1 m/s².

Natural and Artificial Concepts

396
In psychology, concepts can be divided into two categories: natural and artificial. Natural concepts are formed through direct or indirect experiences. For example, consider the concept of snow. If you live in a place with regular snowfall, such as Essex Junction, Vermont, you know snow through direct experiences. You’ve seen it fall, touched it, shoveled it, and played in it. You recognize its texture, appearance, and even its smell. In contrast, if you live on an island like Saint...

Concepts and Prototypes

The human nervous system handles vast amounts of information by translating sensory stimuli into neural impulses, which the brain processes, creating thoughts expressed through language or stored as memories. The brain also synthesizes information from emotions and memories, which significantly influence thoughts and behaviors. This intricate process creates a comprehensive mental picture.
The brain organizes this information using concepts, which are mental categories grouping linguistic data,...

Automatic Processing and Automatic Social Behavior

117
Automatic processing refers to the cognitive operations that occur without conscious intent or awareness, playing a fundamental role in shaping social cognition and behavior. These processes enable individuals to navigate complex social environments efficiently by relying on mental shortcuts and pre-existing knowledge structures known as schemas. One of the most influential mechanisms underlying automatic processing is priming, which subtly activates mental representations through exposure to...

Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

15.1K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Classification of Systems-I

447
Linearity is a system property characterized by a direct input-output relationship, combining homogeneity and additivity.
Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Natural Language Processing
  • Computational Linguistics

Background:

  • Clinical terms in text often deviate from standardized forms due to linguistic variations.
  • Automated clinical applications require normalized terms for accurate concept mapping.
  • Clinical term normalization is crucial for downstream data processing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a system for clinical term normalization using automatically learned edit patterns.
  • To convert non-standard clinical terms into their standardized forms for improved data usability.

Main Methods:

  • Edit patterns (character and word-based) are learned from the UMLS Metathesaurus and training data.
  • Edit patterns are derived from edit distance computations and generalized.
  • Normalization incorporates subconcepts within clinical terms and handles semantic type variations.

Main Results:

  • The system achieved 80.79% accuracy in the 2019 n2c2 Track 3 clinical term normalization task.
  • Ablation studies confirmed the effectiveness of individual system components.
  • Disambiguation of multi-concept clinical terms presented a significant challenge.

Conclusions:

  • Learned edit patterns are effective for clinical term normalization, leading to high performance.
  • The pattern-based system offers human interpretability and insights into clinical term variations.
  • The approach enhances the standardization of clinical terms found in unstructured text.
