NURSING 1400 FINAL TERMS -SOLVED
360 video - ANSWER-There is a difference between virtual reality and 360-degree
video. The latter is less immersive and typically keeps the viewer in a fixed point
surrounded by roughly 360 degrees of video. This is what you are most likely to see if
you are playing around with YouTube 360 or Google Cardboard apps. Purists will say
that 360 video is not actually virtual reality.
3d - ANSWER-three dimensional
adverse device effect - ANSWER-an adverse event related to the use of an
investigational medical device.NOTE 1: This definition includes adverse events resulting
from insufficient or inadequate instructions for use, deployment, implantation,
installation, or operation, or any malfunction of the investigational medical device.NOTE
2: This definition includes any event resulting from use error or from intentional misuse
of the investigational medical device
adverse event - ANSWER-is either a malfunction or a deterioration in the characteristics
or performance of a sold medical device [including accessory(s) and labelling] or use
error, which either has caused or could have caused or contributed to death, or serious
injury to health of patients or other persons.
agent - ANSWER-a computer program that acts on behalf of a user or other program
(also called bots).
algorithm - ANSWER-a step-by-step set of instructions to performing a specific task that
will lead to a desired result when done correctly. They have a definitive start, end, and
number of steps in between
analogical reasoning - ANSWER-compares the similarities between a new concept and
something already understood to draw conclusions as to what is likely to be true about
the new concept.
Artificial General Intelligence - ANSWER-machines that can figure stuff out on their own
artificial intelligence - ANSWER-the ability for computers to make decisions and act as a
human would
Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) - ANSWER-also known as a neural network) is a
computing system that attempts to mimic the human brain, with layers of connected
"neurons" sending information to each other.
artificial reality - ANSWER-Simulated spaces created from a combination of computer
and video systems
, ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) - ANSWER-A way of transmission where a start
signal precedes individual characters and one or more stop signals follow it. Due to this
start/stop system, delays may occur between characters
augmented reality - ANSWER-(AR) describes the enrichment of the real world with the
virtual (OntologicsOntolinux, 2010). Augmented Reality (AR): User sees real
environment; combines virtual with real. Supplements reality, instead of completely
replacing it. Bonsor (2008) "Augmented reality blurs the line between what's real and
what's computer-generated by enhancing what we see, hear, feel and smell" (para. 1).
Augmented reality: Superimpose graphics, audio and other sensory enhancements over
a real-world environment in real time
autonomous - ANSWER-the ability to act independently of a ruling body. In AI, a
machine or vehicle is referred to as autonomous if it doesn't require input from a human
operator to function properly
avatar - ANSWER-image of the Internet that represents the user in virtual communities
or other interactions on the Internet; 3-dimensional or 2-dimensional image representing
one user on the Internet.
backpropagation - ANSWER-- Short for "backward propagation of errors" back
propagation is a way of training neural networks based on a known, desired output for
specific sample case
big data - ANSWER-- a term for data sets that are so large or complex that traditional
data processing applications are inadequate to deal with them
call centers - ANSWER-Registered nurse-staffed facilities at which nurses typically act
as case managers for callers or perform patient triage.
CAPA - ANSWER-(Corrective and Preventative Action) action taken by the
manufacturer to correct an issue, and/or to prevent such an issue from recurring.
case-based learning (CBR) - ANSWER-An approach to knowledge-based problem
solving that uses the solutions of a past, similar problem (case) to solve an existing
problem
CHIWG - ANSWER-Consumer Health Informatics Working Group
cognitive computing - ANSWER-software that succeeds at specific tasks previously
thought to be limited to human cognition.
computer vision - ANSWER-the field of A.I. concerned with teaching machines how to
interpret the visual world
