The article discusses mathematical methods for managing a portfolio of securities. The classical approaches of G. Markowitz, J. Tobin, W. Sharp, P. Samuelson, F. Black, M. Scholes, R. Merton are considered. The features that complicate the practical application of classical methods are revealed. Alternative methods, such as the method of neural networks, the decision tree method, genetic algorithm, simulation modeling, methods of dynamic portfolio restructuring of investment portfolio management, are also considered. In all the considered methods, the features that characterize the positive and negative aspects of their practical application are highlighted. On the basis of the considered methods were proposed directions for finding a method that are best suited for managing an investment portfolio.

The paper describes methods for graphical reconstruction from a single image acquired with a completely uncalibrated camera or even from lithography. The proposed method involves a multimodal approach, such as: digital photogrammetry, 3D photo modelling, CAD design, parameterization, VRML programming. In addition, we propose a visualization method based on Virtual Reality technology, using an immersive CAVE like 3D system. The 3D reconstructed model offers the possibility of details visualization, quickly change the geometry, textures, environment, viewpoint and size and can also be easily accessed using Internet browsers and a VRML client plug-in. As an example and a practical application of the presented method, there was completed the virtual 3D reconstruction of the demolished church Sf. Vineri from Bucharest. The sources of virtual reconstruction were archival, architectural and contemporary historical information.

Abstract: With the development of economy and technological progress, the civil building design system based on BIM technology can build simulation modeling building model of all building information such as the nature of materials and physical characteristics, which not only integrates all the building information, but also can be used in construction cost analysis,structural design, equipment management and the entire life cycle of the building plays a management role. In this paper, based on the overview of BIM technology, this paper analyzes the application advantages of BIM technology in civil architecture design, and then studies the concrete application and related enlightenment of BIM technology in civil architecture design, so as to provide a reference for practical application of BIM technology.

In our initial publication on this subject1) we reported results demonstrating that contrast is the most important factor in producing the high image quality required for reliable image analysis. We also listed the factors which enhance contrast in order of the experimentally determined magnitude of their effect. The two most powerful factors affecting image contrast attainable with sheet film are beam intensity and KV. At that time we had only qualitative evidence for the ranking of enhancing factors. Later we carried out the densitometric measurements which led to the results outlined below.Meaningful evaluations of the cause-effect relationships among the considerable number of variables in preparing EM negatives depend on doing things in a systematic way, varying only one parameter at a time. Unless otherwise noted, we adhered to the following procedure evolved during our comprehensive study:Philips EM-300; 30μ objective aperature; magnification 7000- 12000X, exposure time 1 second, anti-contamination device operating.

Purpose This study continued Phase I investigation of a modified Phonomotor Treatment (PMT) Program on motor planning in two individuals with apraxia of speech (AOS) and aphasia and, with support from prior work, refined Phase I methodology for treatment intensity and duration, a measure of communicative participation, and the use of effect size benchmarks specific to AOS. Method A single-case experimental design with multiple baselines across behaviors and participants was used to examine acquisition, generalization, and maintenance of treatment effects 8–10 weeks posttreatment. Treatment was distributed 3 days a week, and duration of treatment was specific to each participant (criterion based). Experimental stimuli consisted of target sounds or clusters embedded nonwords and real words, specific to each participants' deficit. Results Findings show improved repetition accuracy for targets in trained nonwords, generalization to targets in untrained nonwords and real words, and maintenance of treatment effects at 10 weeks posttreatment for one participant and more variable outcomes for the other participant. Conclusions Results indicate that a modified version of PMT can promote generalization and maintenance of treatment gains for trained speech targets via a multimodal approach emphasizing repeated exposure and practice. While these results are promising, the frequent co-occurrence of AOS and aphasia warrants a treatment that addresses both motor planning and linguistic deficits. Thus, the application of traditional PMT with participant-specific modifications for AOS embedded into the treatment program may be a more effective approach. Future work will continue to examine and maximize improvements in motor planning, while also treating anomia in aphasia.

Abstract The AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides), Fifth Edition, is available and includes numerous changes that will affect both evaluators who and systems that use the AMA Guides. The Fifth Edition is nearly twice the size of its predecessor (613 pages vs 339 pages) and contains three additional chapters (the musculoskeletal system now is split into three chapters and the cardiovascular system into two). Table 1 shows how chapters in the Fifth Edition were reorganized from the Fourth Edition. In addition, each of the chapters is presented in a consistent format, as shown in Table 2. This article and subsequent issues of The Guides Newsletter will examine these changes, and the present discussion focuses on major revisions, particularly those in the first two chapters. (See Table 3 for a summary of the revisions to the musculoskeletal and pain chapters.) Chapter 1, Philosophy, Purpose, and Appropriate Use of the AMA Guides, emphasizes objective assessment necessitating a medical evaluation. Most impairment percentages in the Fifth Edition are unchanged from the Fourth because the majority of ratings currently are accepted, there is limited scientific data to support changes, and ratings should not be changed arbitrarily. Chapter 2, Practical Application of the AMA Guides, describes how to use the AMA Guides for consistent and reliable acquisition, analysis, communication, and utilization of medical information through a single set of standards.
