Developing an applied model for making decisions towards the end of life about care for someone with dementia. by Nathan Davies, Tanisha De Souza, Greta Rait, Jessica Meehan, Elizabeth L Sampson

“…<h4>Methods</h4>Semi-structured interviews with 21 family carers and 11 people with dementia in England (2018-2019) from memory clinics, general practice and carer organisations. Interviews were analysed using thematic analysis and findings were mapped onto the Interprofessional Shared Decision Making model, refined to produce a modified model of decision-making in dementia.…”

Role of medieval universities in reception of Roman law by D. A. Burkova

“…Objective: to comprehensively study the reception of Roman law in Europe in the 11th – 17th centuries as the key element of the continental legal system formation; to consider the reception process through the study of the activities of medieval universities, which had a decisive influence on the borrowing of Roman legal norms and adapting them to European realities, and on the formation of the continental system of law.Methods: the article uses the main general scientific research methods: induction, extrapolation, analysis and synthesis, and also uses a comparative method of scientific research that allows tracing changes in the norms of Roman law during its reception.Results: it is difficult to overestimate the importance of Roman law reception for the European legal order and legal culture. …”

Hyperspectral Estimation of Chlorophyll Content in Ginseng Fruit Leaves Based on Wavelet Transform and VCPA-GA Algorithm by Guo Jinfeng, Zhang Zhicong, Umut Hasan, Zhou Zhongye, Xu Wenyu, Yusup Ahmat

“…This is because the wavelet transform process has some errors that increase with the number of decomposition layers. (2) The VCPA-GA hybrid variable selection algorithm merges the strengths of the VCPA and GA, addressing the tendency of the VCPA to select fewer variables and overcoming GA's limitations in handling many variables which can lead to overfitting, providing a theoretical basis for estimating ginseng fruit LCC using hyperspectral remote sensing. (3) Among the four machine-learning models, predictions from to 1-2 and 6-7 layers were generally lower than those of the 0 layer, while predictions from the 3–5 layers are higher, showing an overall trend of initial increase followed by a decrease as the number of wavelet decomposition layers increased. (4) Ginseng fruit leaf hyperspectral data processed by the DWT-VCPA-GA algorithm with a 4-layer DWT spectrum yielded the best predictive performance in the BP-AdaBoost regression model, with R2=0.919, mean absolute percentage error = 2.090%, and relative percentage difference = 3.900. (5) After optimizing the BPNN regression model with various algorithms, only some optimized models improved their predictive performance and accuracy to a certain extent, making the choice of the right optimization algorithm crucial for model improvement.…”
