NIOSH Topic: Chest Radiography: Classification | CDC/NIOSH Accuracy in radiographic classification is gained through careful and rigorous reader training and through applying specific conditions designed to eliminate bias during the classification process. Concurrent monitoring of classification levels can be accomplished by adding quality assurance ("calibration") radiographs to the set for which classifications are being sought without the reader being aware of which are the calibration radiographs. Precision in film classification is gained, therefore, using summary scores based on multiple independent classifications by different readers who classify the films independently (that is without other readers being present and without knowledge of other readers’ classifications). www.cdc.gov /niosh/topics/chestradiography/interpretation.html   (1685 words)

I ask that a R18+ category of classification be created for video games to allow adults access to media they wish to view, whilst at the same time protecting minors.

Situated Classification Solution of a Resource Allocation Task   (Site not responding.

The effect of these rules is to place the appropriate agenda item in the "office recommended" role of the office, and hence, since this is a self-inverse role, to also place the office in the "office recommended" role of the agenda item. By default, the first person in the people recommended field and the first office in the office recommended field are selected, but all possible combinations of these two fields satisfy the rules and are equally valid. ksi.cpsc.ucalgary.ca /KAW/Sisyphus/Sis1   (7340 words)
