引言 2016年衛生福利部推出「醫病共享決策平台」，積極推廣醫病共享決策（Shared Decision Making；簡稱 SDM），目的是讓醫療人員和病人在進行醫療決策前，能夠透過醫病的相互尊重與溝通，共同享有現有的實證醫學成果，造福患者。SDM推出後，各醫院踴躍配合執行，已取得具體成果，提升了臨床診療品質。SDM是以病人為中心的臨床醫療執行過程，兼具知識、溝通和尊重三大元素。透過促進醫師和病人雙方共同參與，由醫師提出各種不同處置之實證資料，病人則提出個人的喜好與價值觀，彼此交換資訊討論，共同達成最佳可行之治療選項。SDM的落實，除了以病人為中心，以實證醫學為依據，還必須推動明智選擇 (Choosing Wisely)。欠缺明智選擇的SDM，有美中不足之感。「明智選擇」(Choosing Wisely)是美國內科醫學委員會(The American Board of Internal Medicine, ABIM) 2012年發起的一項跨專業運動，目的是找出各個專業領域對於患者，尤其是無症狀民眾，沒有必要甚至可能是有害的檢驗、檢查、手術或治療的清單。每個專業領域通常列出了5項或10項被過度使用的檢驗、檢查或治療。這些專業學會每年會審查和更新清單，確保其反映最佳的實證醫學證據。近幾年來，SDM偏重在臨床處置，相對忽略了檢驗項目的明智選擇 (choosing Wisely)。為了使SDM更趨完善，台灣醫學實驗室管理學會特蒐集相關文獻，並參考多個國家的Choosing Wisely建議，例如美國ASCP-Choosing Wisely、澳洲、加拿大和英國Choosing Wisely的建議，編著本書有關檢驗項目使用管理 (Laboratory stewardship)之Choosing Wisely建議供醫病雙方參考。期望醫病雙方在溝通和選擇檢驗項目時，彼此能有正確的認知與共識。並做為諮詢醫檢師的培訓教材。本書內容是遵循國際上Choosing wisely（明智選擇）的精神和共識，聚焦於不該做的檢查。所有不該做的檢查肇因於不適當的檢驗申請 (inappropriate testing order)，不適當的檢驗申請包括濫用(misuse)、過度使用(overuse)、未充分使用 (underuse)和不當的複檢 (inappropriate retesti

This book describes in detail a research project dedicated to liquid-particle flow using ultrasound techniques. The project consists of theoretical, experimental, data science, finite element modeling, mechanical design and project management components. The objective of the project was to develop the ultrasonic methodology for measurement and characterization of liquid flow containing solid particles, in online (real-time) measurement conditions. The project consists of primary and complementary studies. The primary studies comprise development of the ultrasonic methodology for the simultaneous measurement of the average particle concentration and flow speed parameters. The developed methodology is based on the ultrasonic attenuation spectroscopy and the sound speed measurement methods, supported by data science programs. The complementary studies include acoustic streaming, designing a small-scale rotational test cell with an annular flow channel, testing it for various applications

The book builds on an analogy between social groups and assemblies of molecules to introduce the concepts of statistical mechanics, machine learning and data science. The idea is to bolster students' interest by proposing a new take on the topic that draws on a data analytics approach of molecules. Specifically, how the analysis of their individual features, as well as of interactions and "communication" processes can predict their properties and collective behavior, just as polling and social networking shed light on the behavior of social groups. Applications to systems at the cutting-edge of research e.g. environmental and energy applications, will be used.Key Features: Draws on a data analytics approach of molecules Covers hot topics such as artificial intelligence and machine learning of molecular trends Applications to systems at the cutting-edge of research e.g. environmental and energy applications, are used Discusses molecular simulation and links with other important, emergin

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - From the author of Sapiens comes the groundbreaking story of how information networks have made, and unmade, our world. "Strikingly original . . . A historian whose arguments operate on the scale of millennia has managed to capture the zeitgeist perfectly."--The Economist "This deeply important book comes at a critical time as we all think through the implications of AI and automated content production. . . . Masterful and provocative."--Mustafa Suleyman, author of The Coming Wave For the last 100,000 years, we Sapiens have accumulated enormous power. But despite all our discoveries, inventions, and conquests, we now find ourselves in an existential crisis. The world is on the verge of ecological collapse. Misinformation abounds. And we are rushing headlong into the age of AI--a new information network that threatens to annihilate us. For all that we have accomplished, why are we so self-destructive?

Elementary Linear Algebra: Applications Version, 12th Edition, gives an elementary treatment of linear algebra that is suitable for a first course for undergraduate students. The classic treatment of linear algebra presents the fundamentals in the clearest possible way, examining basic ideas by means of computational examples and geometrical interpretation. It proceeds from familiar concepts to the unfamiliar, from the concrete to the abstract. Readers consistently praise this outstanding text for its expository style and clarity of presentation. In this edition, a new section has been added to describe the applications of linear algebra in emerging fields such as data science, machine learning, climate science, geomatics, and biological modeling. New exercises have been added with special attention to the expanded early introduction to linear transformations and new examples have been added, where needed, to support the exercise sets. Calculus is not a prerequisite, but there are clea

This book provides an overview of multiple aspects of spatial language understanding and explores recent trends of modeling based on very large foundational models and their applications. The authors address the following five main themes: spatial semantic representations in both symbolic and sub-symbolic spaces; spatial information extraction computational models; reasoning over spatial language; commonsense spatial understanding; and multiple modern and state-of-the-art downstream applications of spatial language understanding including dialogue systems, narrative discourse, and grounding language in the physical world with the multi-modal problem settings. One of the essential functions of natural language is to express spatial relationships between objects. Linguistic constructs can encode highly complex structures of objects, spatial relations between them, and patterns of motion through space relative to a reference point. The complexity of spatial language understanding and its
