Abstract And so it was, Momma mouse gave birth to three beautiful, but blind, mice. Once they were of age, the farmer’s wife took pity on them and decided to help them survive in the world. A world made much more dangerous due to their lack of sight.

<div><p>Background</p><p>Without accurate documentation, it can be difficult to assess the quality of care and the impact of quality improvement initiatives. Prehospital lack of documentation of the basic measurements is associated with a twofold risk of mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate data quality in the electronic prehospital patient record (ePPR) system in the Region of Southern Denmark. In addition, we investigated ambulance professionals’ attitudes toward the use of ePPR and identified barriers and facilitators to its use.</p><p>Method</p><p>We used an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design. Phase one consisted of a retrospective assessment of the data quality of ePPR information, and phase two included semi-structured interviews with ambulance professionals combined with observations. We included patients who were acutely transported to an emergency department by ambulance in the Region of Southern Denmark from 2016 to 2020. Data completeness was calculated for each vital sign using a two-way table of frequency. Vital signs were summarised to calculate data correctness. Interviews and observations were analysed using thematic analysis.</p><p>Results</p><p>Overall, an improvement in data completeness and correctness was observed from 2016–2020. When stratified by age group, children (<12 years) accounted for the majority of missing vital sign registrations. In the thematic analysis, we identified four themes; ambulance professionals’ attitudes, emergency setting, training and guidelines, and tablet and software.</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>We found high data quality, but there is room for improvement. The ambulance professionals’ attitudes toward the ePPR, working in an emergency setting, a notion of insufficient training in completing the ePPR, and challenges related to the tablet and software could be barriers to data completeness and correctness. It would be beneficial to include the end-user when developing an ePPR system and to consider that the tablet should be used in emergency situations.</p></div>

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to provide forum for critical discourses in the area of retroduction thinking in the re-orientation of social sciences research at the Bank of Sierra Leone. It is acknowledged that economic research at the bank is more oriented towards the orthodox approach (Keynesian, etc.), while that of the un-orthodox (heterodox) view is being blighted by the need to prove economic theory application without much consideration given to the imperfect market economic conditions faced in the country. Design/methodology/approach - The methodology of the paper is based on critical theoretical literature review of documents and also the assessment of current approach to research practices at the Bank of Sierra Leone. Findings - There is actually a pool of professionals from different backgrounds, whose passion have been coordinated to embrace the idea of integrating variety of triangulation approaches (methodological, theoretical, data, and investigator) in their pursuit of exploring best practices for policy research at the bank. Research is an ontological journey and the process of its epistemological inquiry requires pool of experts, drawn from wide range of backgrounds (mainstream Social Sciences, Mathematical Science, etc.), whose approaches are pertinent in the pursuit of human discovery, and particularly for policy development, as in the case with the Bank of Sierra Leone. This work has highlighted several salient recommended points for future action in the lead towards energizing research at the bank. Originality/value - The effort to provide this paper is very original, which is based on the author's experience of working in a research focused environment. This paper will be of value to future pursuance of work in promoting triangulation research at the Bank of Sierra Leone. It is hoped that the outcome of this will spearhead mixture of professional engagement of work activities that is geared towards addressing effective policy formulation at the bank in meeting its key objective (maintaining price stability).

Die Triangulation ist ein Messverfahren zur Abstandsmessung. Dabei wird mit einem Laser oder einer Laserdiode ein kleiner Fleck auf der Oberfläche erzeugt, deren Entfernung man bestimmen möchte. Unter einem definierten Winkel wird der Fleck auf einen Detektor abgebildet. Je nach Abstand zwischen Sensor und Oberfläche verändert sich die Geometrie des Dreiecks aus Laser, Oberfläche und Detektor. Damit ändert sich auch die Position des abgebildeten Flecks auf dem Detektor. Aus der Position kann schließlich auf den Abstand zurückgerechnet werden.

Abstract The aims, objectives, methods, analysis and validity issues have already been discussed in the research design and methodology described in Chapter 6. This chapter uses three separate studies, two qualitative and one quantitative, both to evaluate and validate the case study and as a means of further clarifying the findings and propositions conceptualized in the previous chapter. The three studies are described separately and include analysis and discussion with a view to further evaluating the findings and propositions using this multi-method approach as a means of increasing understanding and clarifying meaning. Each of the three studies includes concluding remarks relevant to the particular study. The chapter ends with an evaluation and, where appropriate, validation of the propositions of the previous chapter as a result of the three studies.

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding the position of a point in space given its position in two images taken with cameras with known calibration and pose. This process requires the intersection of two known rays in space, and is commonly known as triangulation. In the absence of noise, this problem is trivial. When noise is present, the two rays will not generally meet, in which case it is necessary to find the best point of intersection. This problem is especially critical in affine and projective reconstruction in which there is no meaningful metric information about the object space. It is desirable to find a triangulation method that is invariant to projective transformations of space. This paper solves that problem by assuming a Gaussian noise model for perturbation of the image coordinates. The triangulation problem then may be formulated as a least-squares minimization problem. In this paper a non-iterative solution is given that finds the global minimum...

In this paper a non-iterative solution is given that finds the global minimum. It is shown that in certain configurations, local minima occur, which are avoided by the new method. Extensive comparisons of the new method with several other methods show that it consistently gives superior results. 1 The Triangulation Problem We suppose that a point in is visible in two images. The two camera matrices and corresponding to the two images are supposed known. Let and be projections of the point in the two images. From this data, the two rays in space corresponding to the two image points may easily be computed. The triangulation problem is to find the intersection of the two lines in space. At first sight this is a trivial

The Reasonable Social Scientist kindly consented to read the drafts of this book, and she even agreed to come to Osorno on her next trip to Chile to enable us to discuss the evaluation of PPH personally. She called me on the telephone when she landed in Santiago, and we arranged a breakfast meeting the following day in Osorno. We met at the Gran Hotel, where we were the only customers. In Osorno, only foreigners eat scrambled eggs in public places at 8 o'clock in the morning. The Reasonable Social Scientist began promisingly, by saying that she had found the first nine chapters interesting. I asked her to summarize the change her problematique underwent as she read from Chapter 1 to Chapter 9.KeywordsParticipant ObservationCultural ActionReasonable SocialStomach AcheParticipant ObserverThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
