  1. Human taxonomy

    Unreferenced date October 2010 Human taxonomy is the classification of the species Homo sapiens Latin wise man , or modern human. Homo genus Homo is the human genus , which also includes Neanderthal s and many other extinct species of hominid H. sapiens is the only surviving species of the genus Homo . Extinct Homo species are known as archaic humans. Modern humans are the subspecies Human Homo sapiens sapiens , differentiated from a direct ancestor, Homo sapiens idaltu . Prior to the current scientific classification of humans, philosophers and scientists have made various attempts to classify humans. They offered various definitions of the human being and various schemes for classifying types of humans. Biologists once classified races as subspecies, but today scientists question even the concept of race itself. Certain issues in human taxonomy remain topics of debate today. Extended scientific classification The modern scientific classification of the human species contains many sub and super sections each one being, ideally, a clade which have been interpolated between the seven traditional taxon Linnaean taxonomic ranks . Humans are not only the sole surviving representatives of the genus Homo but also the only surviving representatives of the subtribe Hominina, which includes Australopithecus and other more anthropomorphic hominids. Species believed to be ancestors are listed within higher taxa.

  1. Safety taxonomy

    A safety taxonomy is a standardized set of terminologies used within the fields of safety and health care. The goal is to foster clear communication, as the terminology used within these fields can be immensely confusing, even to specialists. ref Weinhart, S.N. 2005 Beyond Babel prospects for a universal patient safety taxonomy. Int. Journal for Quality in Health Care 17 93 94. http intqhc.oxfordjournals.org content 17 2 93.full ref The creation of effective taxonomies is of great importance. For example there exist numerous taxonomies to classify and analyze human error and accident causes. Examples of these include the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System based on Reason s Swiss Cheese Model , the CREAM Cognitive Reliability Error Analysis Method , the taxonomy used by http www.ciras.org.uk CIRAS Confidential Incident Railway Analysis System in the UK rail industry, and others. ref Wallace,B, and Alastair Ross.

  1. Economic taxonomy

    An economic taxonomy is a system of classification of economic activity, including products, companies and industries. Some economists believe that the study of economic policy demands the use of a taxonomic classificatory approach. ref Day, A.C.L. 1955 The taxonomic approach to the study of economic policies. The American Economic Review 45 64 78. http www.jstor.org pss 1811583 ref Widely used industry taxonomy industry taxonomies include the International Standard Industrial Classification ISIC national and regional taxonomies such as the United States Standard Industrial Classification SIC , the North American Industry Classification System NAICS , Statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community NACE , the United Kingdom Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activities , the Russian Economic Activities Classification System OKVED and proprietary taxonomies such as the Industry Classification Benchmark and Global Industry Classification Standard . The international and national taxonomies are used by official statistical agencies. The proprietary taxonomies are often used in the financial services industry to group similar investment vehicle s and to construct sectorial stock market indices . Pavitt s Taxonomy classifies firms by their principal sources of innovation.

  1. Numerical taxonomy

    about Numerical taxonomy other uses of taxonomy Taxonomy disambiguation Numerical taxonomy is a Biological classification classification system in biological systematics which deals with the grouping by numerical method s of taxon taxonomic units based on their character states. ref cite web url http www.accessscience.com abstract.aspx?id 461900&referURL http 3a 2f 2fwww.accessscience.com 2fcontent.aspx 3fid 3d461900 title Numerical Taxonomy author date work www.accessscience.com publisher McGraw Hill Ltd. accessdate 13 April 2010 ref . It aims to create a taxonomy using numeric algorithms like cluster analysis rather than using subjective evaluation of their properties. The concept was first developed by Robert R. Sokal & Peter H. A. Sneath in 1963 ref Sokal & Sneath Principles of Numerical Taxonomy , San Francisco W.H. Freeman, 1963 ref and later elaborated by the same authors ref Sneath and Sokal Numerical Taxonomy , San Francisco W.H. Freeman, 1973 ref . They divided the field into phenetics in which classifications are formed based on the patterns of overall similarities and cladistics in which classifications based on the branching patterns of the estimated evolutionary history of the taxa. Note in recent years many authors treat numerical taxonomy and phenetics as synonyms despite the distinctions made by those authors. Although intended as an objective classification method, in practice the choice and implicit weighing of characteristics is, of course, influenced by available data and research interests of the investigator. What was made objective was the introduction of explicit steps to be used to create phenograms and cladograms using numerical methods rather than subjective synthesis of data.

  1. Plant taxonomy

    Unreferenced date June 2009 Plant taxonomy is the science that finds, describes, classifies, identifies, and names plant s. It thus is one of the main branches of alpha taxonomy taxonomy . Plant taxonomy is closely allied to history of plant systematics plant systematics , and there is no sharp boundary between the two. In practice, plant systematics is involved with relationships between plants and their evolution, especially at the higher levels, whereas plant taxonomy deals with the actual handling of plant specimen s. The precise relationship between taxonomy and systematics, however, has changed along with the goals and methods employed. Plant taxonomy is well known for being turbulent, and traditionally there is no really close agreement on wiktionary circumscription circumscription and placement of taxon taxa . See the list of systems of plant taxonomy . Identification and classification Two goals of plant taxonomy are the identification and classification of plants. The distinction between these two goals is important and often overlooked. Plant identification is the determination of the identity of an unknown plant by comparison with previously collected specimens or with the aid of books or identification manuals. The process of identification connects the specimen with a published name. Once a plant specimen has been identified, its name and properties are known. Plant classification is the placing of known plants into groups or categories to show some relationship. Scientific classification follows a system of rules that standardizes the results, and groups successive categories into a hierarchy . For example, the Family biology family to which the Lilium lilies belong is classified as follows Kingdom Plant ae Division Magnoliophyta Class Liliopsida Order Liliales ...

  1. Segregate (taxonomy)

    In Alpha taxonomy taxonomy , a segregate , or a segregate taxon is created when a taxon is split off, from another taxon. This other taxon will be better known, usually bigger, and will continue to exist, even after the segregate taxon has been split off. A segregate will be either new or ephemeral there is a tendency for taxonomists to disagree on segregates, and later workers often reunite a segregate with the mother taxon. If a segregate is generally accepted as a good taxon it ceases to be a segregate. Thus, this is a way of indicating change in the taxonomic status. It should not be confused with, for example, the subdivision of a genus into subgenus subgenera . For example, the genus Alsobia is a segregate from the genus Episcia The genera Filipendula and Aruncus are segregates from the genus Spiraea .

  1. Pavitt's Taxonomy

    Pavitt s Taxonomy categorizes mostly large industrial firms along trajectories of technological change according to sources of technology, requirements of the users, and appropriability regime Pavitt 1984 . The taxonomy aims to classify innovation modes according to different sectoral groups and the flow of knowledge between such groups. It was first proposed by SPRU researcher Keith Pavitt at the University of Sussex and has since been applied in innovation research to describe and categorize industries and the firms therein Daniele Archibugi Archibugi 2001 . According to Castellacci 2008 , Pavitt s model of the linkages between science based, specialized suppliers, scale intensive and supplier dominated industries provides a stylized and powerful description of the core set of industrial sectors that sustained the growth of advanced economies during the Fordist age. Pavitt s Taxonomy Pavitt s taxonomy consists of four categories of industrial firms 1 Supplier Dominated includes firms from mostly traditional manufacturing such as textiles and agriculture which rely on sources of innovation external to the firm. 2 Scale Intensive characterized by mainly large firms producing basic materials and consumer durables, e.g. automotive sector. Sources of innovation may be both internal and external to the firm with a medium level of appropriability. 3 Specialized Suppliers smaller, more specialized firms producing technology to be sold into other firms, e.g. specialized machinery production and high tech instruments.
