Objectives We aimed to examine the relationship between cycling (particularly commuter cycling) and risk factors associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) including body composition, blood lipids ...

Abstract: Fusing probabilistic information is a fundamental task in signal and data processing with relevance to many fields of technology and science. In this work, we investigate the fusion of ...

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common form of orthopaedic surgery that can improve the quality of life for patients. Patients who receive joint replacement are particularly susceptible to ...

Abstract: In this paper, we propose an open-loop unequal-error-protection querying policy based on superposition coding for the noisy 20 questions problem. In this problem, a player wishes to ...

A fundamental feature of the mind is its tendency to wander from the constraints of the perceptual moment towards internally generated thoughts and feelings. Recent interest in mind-wandering as a ...

We are going through a new shift in machine learning (ML), where ML models are increasingly being used to automate decision-making in a multitude of domains: what personalized treatment should be ...

A growing body of work underlines striking similarities between biological neural networks and recurrent, binary neural networks. A relatively smaller body of work, however, addresses the similarities ...

This paper presents a continuous method for solving binary quadratic programming problems. First, the original problem is converted into an equivalent continuous optimization problem by using NCP ...
