Équité en santéL'équité en santé est un concept de santé publique décrivant l'équité d'accès aux ressources de santé, pour des déterminants génétiques, socio-environnementaux et économiques de la santé variant selon les individus, familles et groupes sociaux ou sociétaux. L'équité peut être abordée du côté de l'offre (les pays ou régions pauvres ont une offre moindre en équipement médical, en médicaments...
Overjustification effectThe overjustification effect occurs when an expected external incentive such as money or prizes decreases a person's intrinsic motivation to perform a task. Overjustification is an explanation for the phenomenon known as motivational "crowding out". The overall effect of offering a reward for a previously unrewarded activity is a shift to extrinsic motivation and the undermining of pre-existing intrinsic motivation.
Work motivationWork motivation is a person's internal disposition toward work. To further this, an incentive is the anticipated reward or aversive event available in the environment. While motivation can often be used as a tool to help predict behavior, it varies greatly among individuals and must often be combined with ability and environmental factors to actually influence behavior and performance. Results from a 2012 study, which examined age-related differences in work motivation, suggest a "shift in people's motives" rather than a general decline in motivation with age.
Economic mobilityEconomic mobility is the ability of an individual, family or some other group to improve (or lower) their economic status—usually measured in income. Economic mobility is often measured by movement between income quintiles. Economic mobility may be considered a type of social mobility, which is often measured in change in income. There are many different ideas in the literature as to what constitutes a good mathematical measure of mobility, each with their own advantages and drawbacks.
Race and healthRace and health refers to how being identified with a specific race influences health. Race is a complex concept that has changed across chronological eras and depends on both self-identification and social recognition. In the study of race and health, scientists organize people in racial categories depending on different factors such as: phenotype, ancestry, social identity, genetic makeup and lived experience. "Race" and ethnicity often remain undifferentiated in health research.
Trip generationTrip generation is the first step in the conventional four-step transportation forecasting process used for forecasting travel demands. It predicts the number of trips originating in or destined for a particular traffic analysis zone (TAZ). Trip generation analysis focuses on residences and residential trip generation is thought of as a function of the social and economic attributes of households. At the level of the traffic analysis zone, residential land uses "produce" or generate trips.
Santé publiqueright|thumb|From FLIES and FILTHto FOOD and FEVER En français : Des MOUCHES et de la SALETÉà la NOURRITURE et à la FIÈVRE Affiche publiée par le State Board of Health (Commission d'État sur la Santé) de la Floride en 1916. La santé publique peut être définie comme , ou encore comme des . Cette définition s'entend sur la population humaine. Une nouvelle conception "one health", "une seule santé", qui s'applique à l'ensemble des populations animales, végétales et leurs interconnexions complexes avec l'environnement, émerge depuis les années 2000 et permet une approche plus globale de la santé notamment publique.
Blob detectionIn computer vision, blob detection methods are aimed at detecting regions in a that differ in properties, such as brightness or color, compared to surrounding regions. Informally, a blob is a region of an image in which some properties are constant or approximately constant; all the points in a blob can be considered in some sense to be similar to each other. The most common method for blob detection is convolution.
Corner detectionCorner detection is an approach used within computer vision systems to extract certain kinds of features and infer the contents of an image. Corner detection is frequently used in motion detection, , video tracking, image mosaicing, panorama stitching, 3D reconstruction and object recognition. Corner detection overlaps with the topic of interest point detection. A corner can be defined as the intersection of two edges. A corner can also be defined as a point for which there are two dominant and different edge directions in a local neighbourhood of the point.
Locus de caractères quantitatifsvignette|Locus de caractères quantitatifs Un locus de caractères quantitatifs (LCQ ou QTL pour quantitative trait loci) est une région plus ou moins grande d'ADN qui est étroitement associée à un caractère quantitatif, c'est-à-dire une région chromosomique où sont localisés un ou plusieurs gènes à impliqué dans caractère en question. L'hérédité de caractères quantitatifs se rapporte à une caractéristique phénotypique qui varie par degrés, et qui peut être attribuée à l'interaction entre deux ou plusieurs gènes et leur environnement (appelé aussi hérédité polygénique).
