Stone Retrieval

What is your experience in passing kidney stones.?

Have you passed it on your own, or was surgery needed via stone retrieval or lithotripsy...I ask because my son is trying to pass one,
and we are due to fly on Wednesday.
The doctor okayed it, she gave medicine to bring, buy you are probably right!

My experienced is as "the care giver" of patients with stones:

These are the general principles that I personally followed:

Kidney stones 3mm or less will pass 100%
Stones 5 - 10 mm will pass but it can become obstructed.
Stones greater that 10mm will probably not pass and may requires interventions of some kind.

Stones less than 10 mm may be allowed to pass as long as:
1. No severe pain that necessitates narcotic shots
2. Patient has no fever
3. No loss of kidney functions in X-rays.
If there is Pain, Fever or loss of kidney functions, you need to be in the hospital immediately!.

Good luck

XML Retrieval $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles XML Retrieval, or XML Information Retrieval, is the contentbased retrieval of documents structured with XML. As such it is used for computing relevance of XML documents. Most XML retrieval approaches do so based on techniques from the information retrieval (IR) area, e.g. by computing the similarity between a query consisting of keywords (query terms) and the document. However, in XMLRetrieval the query can also contain structural hints. Socalled content and structure (CAS) queries enable users to specify what structure the requested content can or must have. Taking advantage of the selfdescribing structure of XML documents can improve the search for XML documents significantly. This includes the use of CAS queries, the weighting of different XML elements differently and the focused retrieval of subdocuments.

Knowledge Retrieval $70.1 Knowledge Retrieval is a field of study which seeks to return information in a structured form, consistent with human cognitive processes as opposed to simple lists of data items. It draws on a range of fields including Epistemology Cognitive psychology, Cognitive neuroscience, Logic and Inference, Machine learning and Knowledge discovery, Linguistics, Information technology, etc. Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 76 Publication Date: 2010/07/26 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.18 inches

The Modern Algebra of Information Retrieval $205.52 This book takes a unique approach to information retrieval by laying down the foundations for a modern algebra of information retrieval based on lattice theory. All major retrieval methods developed so far are described in detail, along with Web retrieval algorithms, and the author shows that they all can be treated elegantly in a unified formal way, using lattice theory as the one basic concept. The book s presentation is characterized by an engineeringlike approach. Author: Dominich, Sandor/ Dominich, Sndor/ Dominich, S.

Exploring Sentence Retrieval $134.33 Sentence Retrieval is the task of retrieving a relevant sentence in response to a query, a question, or a reference sentence. In this work we begin by demonstrating that because sentences are much smaller than documents, the performance of typical document retrieval systems on the retrieval of sentences is significantly worse. We propose several solutions to the problem of sentence retrieval, based on statistical translation models, and investigate these solutions the application areas of sentence retrieval for question answering, novelty detection, and information provenance. Statistical translation models are appropriate for tasks where the sentence to be retrieved benefits from the addition of related terms and synonyms. The context of a sentence affects its meaning, and smoothing from the local context of the sentence improves retrieval. A brief investigation of conditional models for sentence retrieval suggests conditional models outperform language modeling approaches, for some tasks. This book is addressed to students and professionals working on language technology systems that are dependent on sentence or passage retrieval.

Information Retrieval for Music and Motion $149.42 Contentbased multimedia retrieval is a challenging research field with many unsolved problems. This monograph details concepts and algorithms for robust and efficient information retrieval of two different types of multimedia data: waveformbased music data and human motion data. It first examines several approaches in music information retrieval, in particular general strategies as well as efficient algorithms. The book then introduces a general and unified framework for motion analysis, retrieval, and classification, highlighting the design of suitable features, the notion of similarity used to compare data streams, and data organization.

CrossLanguage Information Retrieval $412.62 The universal adoption of the Internet and the WWW have created an enormous, multilingual virtual textual database. Rather than looking upon foreign language documents as distracting noise, one can consider these documents as untapped sources of information. CrossLanguage Information Retrieval is the first book that addresses the problem of accessing multilingual information through a singlelanguage query. This research problem is receiving growing attention by US and foreign governments. CrossLanguage Information Retrieval describes the problem, highlighting the differences between the field and the related areas of Machine Translation and Information Retrieval. Researchers from Europe, Japan and America present a wide variety of techniques and experimental results. The lifesize experiments are run on modern largescale retrieval testbeds, running up to hundreds of megabytes of texts. The techniques involve using bilingual dictionaries, machine translation systems, parallel text corpora, comparable but nonparallel text corpora, latent semantic indexing, and weighted Boolean interrogation. CrossLanguage Information Retrieval is suitable as a secondary text for a graduate level course on CrossLanguage Information Retrieval, and as a reference for researchers and practitioners in industry.

ConceptBased Video Retrieval $142.55 ConceptBased Video Retrieval reviews 300 references on video retrieval, indicating when the textonly solutions of presentday video search engines are unsatisfactory and showing the promising alternatives which are primarily conceptbased. Central to the discussion, therefore, is the fundamental notion of a semantic concept: an objective linguistic description of an observable entity. The book aims to motivate and explain how automated detection, selection under uncertainty, and interactive usage might solve the major scientific problems for video retrieval: the semantic gap. In striving to bridge this gap, the authors structured their review by laying down the anatomy of a conceptbased video search engine. They present a componentwise decomposition and evaluation of such an interdisciplinary multimedia system, covering influences from information retrieval, computer vision, machine learning, and humancomputer interaction. ConceptBased Video Retrieval is aimed primarily at researchers and developers in the broad area of information retrieval. It will also be an invaluable reference for students in artificial intelligence, computer and information science at the (post)graduate level, as well as industrial practitioners.

They are all real

It's an ok deck, doesn't look to have great balance, it seems a bit random, but that could just be because they are listed randomly.
