Universal Metadata Standard
by Andrej PoleevConsciousness is based on the association of notions or a neural network. Similarly, the creation of the next generation Internet (semantic web) is impossible without attributes that allow the semantic association of documents and their integration into an information context. To achieve these goals, the Universal Metadata Standard (UMS) may serve as a basis for documentography and is functionally required for interpretation of documents by automatic operating systems. -
Charité, mon amour
by Andrej PoleevWie jedes Krankenhaus hat Charité ihre Geschichte, die mit dem Erlaß des preußischen Königs Friedrich I. vom 14. November 1709 zur Gründung von Lazareth-Häusern anfing, um der Ausbreitung der Pest entgegenzuwirken, wozu es allerdings in Berlin nie gekommen ist. Am 9. Januar 1727 verfügte König Friedrich Wilhelm I. die Umwandlung des vor dem Spandowischen Tor errichteten Lazareth in ein Hospital und nannte es „das Haus die Charité“... more

Der Sinn des Lebens und andere psychologische Schriften.
by Andrej PoleevIst das nicht der Unsinn, der uns alle bedroht und gefährdet? Das ist eine rhetorische Frage, und sie weist schon auf die Antwort hin: Die Fälle und die Erscheinungsformen von Ordnungswahn sind in Deutschland zahlreich und vielfältig infolge der Institutionalisierung des Wahns, weswegen Zwangsvorstellungen und Zwangshandlungen dieser Art nicht als therapiebedürftige Zwangsstörungen gelten, und jegliche Versuche, die Tendenz umzukehren, abgewehrt werden. Lernunfähigkeit und Unbeeinflußbarkeit sch... more -
Exorcism
by Andrej PoleevExorcism is (1) the act of driving out, or warding off, demons, or evil spirits, from persons, places, or things, which are believed to be possessed or infested by them, or are liable to become victims or instruments of their malice; (2) the means employed for this purpose, especially the solemn and authoritative adjuration of the demon, in the name of God, or any of the higher power in which he is subject. Toner, Patrick. Exorcism. The Catholic Encyclopedia, vol. 5. New York: Robert Appleton Co... more -
De amore
by Andrej PoleevОтвечая на вопрос о природе любви, невозможно обойти вниманием формы её проявления: дружбу, дружелюбие, союз, мир. Универсальность любви является отражением космического устройства, в котором всё присходит из взаимодействия, совершающегося в микрокосмосе. Химическая связь атомов при их молекулярной ассоциации или ассоциативная связь понятий в ментальном пространстве имеют одинаковые основания - реализацию вещественности при топологическом преобразовании изомерного пространства. Несмотря на то, ч... more -
Causal classification of diseases
by Andrej Poleev„Errors are the greatest obstacles to the progress of science; to correct such errors is of more practical value than to achieve new knowledge,“ asserted Eugen Bleuler. Basic error of several prevailing classification schemes of pathological conditions, as for example ICD-10, lies in confusing and mixing symptoms with diseases, what makes them unscientific. Considering the need to bring order into the chaos and light into terminological obscureness, I introduce the Causal classification of disea... more -
