In computational number theory, Cornacchia's algorithm is an algorithm for solving the Diophantine equation + = , where < and d and m are coprime ...
1995 – AdaBoost algorithm, the first practical boosting algorithm, was introduced by Yoav Freund and Robert Schapire; 1995 – soft-margin support vector machine algorithm was published by Vladimir Vapnik and Corinna Cortes. It adds a soft-margin idea to the 1992 algorithm by Boser, Nguyon, Vapnik, and is the algorithm that people usually ...
The time period that must elapse before attempting to increase the rate again may, itself, be determined by an exponential backoff algorithm. Typically, recovery of the rate occurs more slowly than reduction of the rate due to backoff and often requires careful tuning to avoid oscillation of the rate. [1]
The nearest neighbour algorithm was created, which is the start of basic pattern recognition. The algorithm was used to map routes. [2] 1969: Limitations of Neural Networks: Marvin Minsky and Seymour Papert publish their book Perceptrons, describing some of the limitations of perceptrons and neural networks. The interpretation that the book ...
Low back pain accounts for 17% of all physician visits of people aged 65 and older. [37] From this population, a large portion of radicular pain stems not from disk pathology, but from lumbar spinal stenosis. [37] According to Kalff et al., 21% of people over the age of 60 have lumbar spinal stenosis, as confirmed by radiological screening. [38]
Approximately 9–12% of people (632 million) have low back pain at any given point in time, [26] and nearly 25% report having it at some point over any one-month period. [7] [8] About 40% of people have low back pain at some point in their lives, [7] with estimates as high as 80% among people in the developed world. [27]
Traditionally, time has been allowed for convalescence to happen. Nowadays, in some instances, where there is a shortage of hospital beds or of trained staff, medical settings can feel rushed and may have drifted away from a focus on convalescence.
A back examination is a portion of a physical examination used to identify potential pathology involving the back. A spinal assessment is a way to examine the back for potential pathology. Medical inclinometers can be used to assess range of motion. This kind of assessment can help diagnosis scoliosis, kyphosis and degenerative disc disease. [1]
