Health Care Fraud: Enforcement and Compliance focuses on fraud and abuse issues involving health care providers as well as application of the laws governing fraud and abuse to manufacturers of drugs and medical devices and other non-providers such as medical researchers.
This scientific book was written for specialists on the theory and application of numerical approximation techniques, primarily for mathematicians, scientists, and engineers. The book outlines numerical methods and their applications for systems of linear and nonlinear equations, interpolation, numerical integration and solving problems with differential equations, partial differential equations or fractional differential equations. It explores techniques in C++, Maple, and MATLAB, develops mathematical methods through computation and develops numerical methods in the context of case studies for data analysis, optimisation, linear algebra and differential equations.
One of the challenges in Analytical chemistry is the analysis of complicated real samples. Analytical methods commonly suffer from interference and several limitations for the analysis of these samples. These limitations may be due to inherent problems of method or the nature of the sample matrix. Although electrochemical methods have several advantages, they are not exempt from this rule. Different parameters should be investigated to improve electrochemical methods for the analysis of real samples, selectivity being the most important. Inherent selectivity of dynamic electrochemical techniques is achieved when the analyte reacts in different values of applied parameters compared to potentially interfering species. In other words, the choice of applied parameter (e.g. potential in voltammetry) determines the selectivity of the measurement.
Tár is a plucked string instrument, popularly known as the long-necked lute, traditionally played in Iran, Azerbaijan, and Central Asia. It has a distinctive sound and is played with a small plectrum made of wood or tortoise shell. The body of the tár is traditionally carved from a single piece of wood, and its neck has 25 strings arranged in five groups of five. Four of the five groups are tuned in unison, while the fifth group is tuned in octaves. The tár has historically been used in a variety of musical genres, ranging from classical Persian music to folk and popular music in Azerbaijan. There are several variations of the tár, including the Azerbaijani tár, which has a slightly dif...
How did humans and the environment impact each other in the medieval Eastern Mediterranean? How did global climatic fluctuations affect the Byzantine Empire over the course of a millennium? And how did the transmission of pathogens across long distances affect humans and animals during this period? This book tackles these and other questions about the intersection of human and natural history in a systematic way. Bringing together analyses of historical, archaeological, and natural scientific evidence, specialists from across these fields have contributed to this volume to outline the new discipline of Byzantine environmental history. Contributors are: Johan Bakker, Henriette Baron, Chryssa Bourbou, James Crow, Michael J. Decker, Warren J. Eastwood, Dominik Fleitmann, John Haldon, Adam Izdebski, Eva Kaptijn, Jürg Luterbacher, Henry Maguire, Mischa Meier, Lee Mordechai, Jeroen Poblome, Johannes Preiser-Kapeller, Abigail Sargent, Peter Talloen, Costas Tsiamis, Ralf Vandam, Myrto Veikou, Sam White, and Elena Xoplaki
Statistical distributions are essential tools to model the characteristics of datasets, such as right or left skewness, bi-modality or multi-modality observed in different applied sciences, such as engineering, medicine, and finance. The well-known distributions like normal, Weibull, gamma and Lindley are extensively used because of their simple forms and identifiability properties. In the last decade, researchers have focused on the more complex and flexible distributions, referred to as Generalized or simply G families of probability distributions, to increase the modelling capability of these distributions by adding one or more shape parameters. The main aim of this edited book is to pres...
Central Asia is a wide subject of research in the archaeological and historical studies of the Ancient World. Scholars have usually focused on the complex and diverse questions that resulted from the analysis of the historical realities of this key region during Antiquity. The purpose of this book is to undertake an approach to the polymorphic and multiple aspects of Central Asia in Antiquity from several points of view. The starting point is the confidence in an interdisciplinary perspective as the mainway to understand the different aspects of the region in a very wide chronology: from the emergence of the cities and their relation with the nomadic populations, to the expansion of models a...
