  • Philosophical foundations of intelligence collection and analysis

    Bill Mandrick, B SmithARTICLEIntelligence & National Security2022

    There is a common misconception across the lntelligence Community (IC) to the effect that information trapped within multiple heterogeneous data silos can be semantically integrated by the sorts of meaning-blind statistical methods employed in much of artificial intelligence (Al) and natural language processlng (NLP). This leads to the misconception that incoming data can be analysed coherently by relying exclusively on the use of statistical alg…

  • Pathological lesions of the digestive tract in free‐ranging mountain gorillas ( Gorilla beringei beringei )

    Open AccessB Smith, Denis Muhangi et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology2021

    The finding of parasites and bacterial pathogens in mountain gorilla feces and oral lesions in gorilla skeletal remains has not been linked to pathological evidence of morbidity or mortality. In the current study, we conducted a retrospective study of digestive tracts including oral cavity, salivary glands, esophagus, stomach, intestines (gastrointestinal tract [GI]), liver, and pancreas of 60 free‐ranging mountain gorillas from Uganda, Rwanda, a…

  • Debt and Entanglements Between the Wars

    Open AccessThomas J Sargent, International Monetary Fund et al.BOOKDebt and Entanglements Between…2019

    The seven chapters in this volume tell stories about correlated macroeconomic and political events that occurred in six countries and four Dominions of the British Commonwealth between 1914 and 1940. By a story, I mean a collection of observations ordered in time together with causal interpretations that come from projecting the observations onto a theory. Correlations among our stories arise partly from the international aspects of the events be…

  • Sharing Qualitative Research

    A Bundon, B Smith et al.BOOKSharing Qualitative Research2016

    New media technologies and the narrative turn in qualitative research has expanded the methods through which we gather data about and share findings of groups who have traditionally been written about by others rather than telling their own stories to reveal the complexities of their experiences.This chapter explores two projects that use storytelling and technology in an effort to change public perceptions about disadvantaged a community or coho…

  • Pharmacist-led management of chronic pain in primary care

    Hanne Bruhn, Annie Blyth et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2011

    Background Chronic pain, (lasting >3 months) affects nearly half the adult population. Most are managed in primary care but prescribing is often suboptimal. Practice pharmacists are ideally placed to improve prescribing. Following the Medical Research Council (MRC) framework for development of complex interventions, we are developing a randomised controlled trial (RCT) to compare pharmacist medication-review, with or without prescribing, with sta…

  • Creating a Controlled Vocabulary for the Ethics of Human Research

    Open AccessDavid Koepsell, Robert Arp et al.ARTICLEJournal of Empirical Research on…2009Citada por: 1

    ONTOLOGIES DESCRIBE REALITY IN SPECIFIC domains in ways that can bridge various disciplines and languages. They allow easier access and integration of information that is collected by different groups. Ontologies are currently used in the biomedical sciences, geography, and law. A Biomedical Ethics Ontology (BMEO) would benefit members of ethics committees who deal with protocols and consent forms spanning numerous fields of inquiry. There alread…

  • Mapping the archaeological soil archive of sand and gravel mineral reserves in Britain

    Open AccessIan Ward, B Smith et al.ARTICLEGeoarchaeology2008Citada por: 1Referências: 6

    Primary sand and gravel deposits in Britain play an important role in preserving our cultural heritage and are also a valuable aggregate resource. While an understanding of the extrinsic properties of the soil archive (such as pH, redox, groundwater) can provide a firstorder assessment of the potential risk to any archaeologically sensitive deposits, we have very poor definition of spatial variations in the extrinsic properties of soil that influ…

  • Political Tolerance and God's Wrath in the United States

    P Froese, C Bader et al.ARTICLESociology of Religion2008Citada por: 52

    Ever since Stouffer (1955) began to measure political tolerance a half century ago, multiple studies have shown that church attendance and denominational affiliation play a significant role in influencing whether individuals want to extend civil liberties to fringe groups. However, there is little theoretical understanding of why religion should affect an individual's unwillingness to grant free expression to minority opinions. Drawing upon the t…

  • Ireland and Europe in the Twelfth Century

    B SmithARTICLEThe English Historical Review2007Citada por: 6

    The key events in the history of church reform in Ireland in the eleventh and twelfth centuries—and it is church reform rather than reform of any other aspect of Irish society with which this volume deals—are well known: the consecration of bishops of Irish towns by Archbishops Lanfranc and Anselm of Canterbury, the holding of ‘reforming’ synods at Cashel, the unidentified Ráith Breasail, Kells, and elsewhere from 1101 onwards which led to the es…

  • Towards industrial strength philosophy

    Open AccessB Smith, Werner CeustersARTICLEInterdisciplinary Science Reviews2003

    Medical research faces a problem of communication. Different communities of medical researchers use different and often incompatible terminologies in expressing the results of their work, and this yields problems of database integration when medical data needs to be entered into computers. Such problems were initially resolved in case by case fashion. Then, however, the idea arose of constructing one single benchmark taxonomy into which all of th…

  • An astrolabe from Passa Pau, Cape Verde Islands

    Open AccessB SmithARTICLEThe International Journal of…2002

    Mariner‘s astrolabes seem to have been in use from the 15th to the end of the 18th centuries. They evolved at about the same time as quadrants and cross-staffs. Their precursor, the astronomer’s astrolabe and kamal, were either too cumbersome or not sufficiently accurate for sea-going use. An astrolabe found on the Passa Pau wreck is unique in that it is the only know specimen coated with silver. It is dated 1645 and has the maker's name, Nicolao…
