description: In recent years, it has become clear that rankings delivered in many areas need not only be useful to the users but also respect fairness of exposure for the item producers. We consider the problem of finding ranking policies that achieve a Pareto-optimal tradeoff between these two aspects. Several methods were proposed to solve it; for instance a popular one is to use linear programming with a Birkhoff-von Neumann decomposition. These methods, however, are based on a classical Position Based exposure Model (PBM), which assumes independence between the items (hence the exposure only depends on the rank). In many applications, this assumption is unrealistic and the community increasingly moves towards considering other models that include dependences, such as the Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN) exposure model. For such models, computing (exact) optimal fair ranking policies remains an open question. We answer this question by leveraging a new geometrical method based on the so-called expohedron proposed recently for the PBM (Kletti et al., WSDM'22). We lay out the structure of a new geometrical object (the DBN-expohedron), and propose for it a Carathéodory decomposition algorithm of complexity $O(n^3)$, where $n$ is the number of documents to rank. Such an algorithm enables expressing any feasible expected exposure vector as a distribution over at most $n$ rankings; furthermore we show that we can compute the whole set of Pareto-optimal expected exposure vectors with the same complexity $O(n^3)$. Our work constitutes the first exact algorithm able to efficiently find a Pareto-optimal distribution of rankings. It is applicable to a broad range of fairness notions, including classical notions of meritocratic and demographic fairness. We empirically evaluate our method on the TREC2020 and MSLR datasets and compare it to several baselines in terms of Pareto-optimality and speed.

description: We review a set of the possible ways to constrain extended gravity models at Galaxy clusters scales (the regime of dark energy explanations and comparison with $ΛCDM$), for black hole shadows, gravitational wave astronomy, binary pulsars, Solar system and Large Hadron Collider (consequences for high energy physics at TeV scale). The key idea is that modern experimental and observational precise data gives a chance to go beyond the general relativity.
Preliminary Quantitative Analysis and Strategic Approach to Emergency Department Overcrowding at University Hospital Limerick, Ireland's Health Service Executive, Mid-West Health Region
Creators: name: Hybrid Simulation Modelling Lab
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The Mid-West (MW) health region of Ireland’s Health Services Executive (HSE) faces critical challenges, particularly overcrowding and bed shortages at University Hospital Limerick (UHL). Findings show approximately 85% of investment is currently focused in County Limerick. Yet, only 25% of additional beds planned for 2031 are in place. The study’s spatial analysis reveals that healthcare demand in Ennis is nearly three times that of Nenagh, driven by higher population densities and access challenges. Nenagh’s demand closely aligns with the combined needs of Kilkee and Kilrush. Ennis requires 85 ED-dedicated beds. Ennis has 50 beds, with operating theatres under appraisal, while Nenagh has 9 excess beds for projected ED needs but requires additional operating theatres. Addressing these capacity gaps could reduce UHL’s ED burden by over 38,000 annual attendees. At a population level, County Clare requires 402 beds, with 50 existing and 48 planned, requiring 302 unplanned acute beds. For North Tipperary, it amounts to 221 beds, with only 52 beds available and 24 planned in Nenagh, leaving a 145-bed shortfall. This study recommends regional capacity expansion, emphasising a System Science approach and collaboration with stakeholders and decision-makers. System Dynamics modelling is suggested for future work, aligning with the Sláintecare initiative’s vision for decentralised, equitable healthcare across Ireland’s MW region.

description: Aims Emerging evidence has linked cholesterol metabolism with platelet responsiveness. We sought to examine the dose-response relationship between low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and major in-hospital bleeds in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. Methods and results Among 42 378 ACS patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) enrolled in 240 hospitals in the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China-ACS project from 2014 to 2019, a total of 615 major bleeds, 218 ischaemic events, and 337 deaths were recorded. After controlling for baseline variables, a non-linear relationship was observed for major bleeds, with the higher risk at lower LDL-C levels. No dose-response relationship was identified for ischaemic events and mortality. A threshold value of LDL-C <70 mg/dL was associated with an increased risk for major bleeds (adjusted odds ratio: 1.49; 95% confidence interval: 1.21-1.84) in multivariable-adjusted logistic regression models and in propensity score-matched cohorts. The results were consistent in multiple sensitivity analyses. Among ticagrelor-treated patients, the LDL-C threshold for increased bleeding risk was observed at <88 mg/dL, whereas for clopidogrel-treated patients, the threshold was <54 mg/dL. Across a full spectrum of LDL-C levels, the treatment effect size associated with ticagrelor vs. clopidogrel on major bleeds favoured clopidogrel at lower LDL-C levels, but no difference at higher LDL-C levels. Conclusions In a nationwide ACS registry, a non-linear association was identified between LDL-C levels and major in-hospital bleeds following PCI, with the higher risk at lower levels. As the potential for confounding may exist, further studies are warranted. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02306616

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a home-based journal activity on parent engagement and confidence in supporting students’ achievement. It was hypothesized that the journal activity would not affect parents’ self-rated engagement and confidence. Parent figures from 22 families in a Title I school in Laurel, MD were administered surveys before and after a three week intervention during which students wrote and shared daily journal entries with their parents who then responded with a daily written reply in the journals. T- tests comparing responses from the pre and post surveys resulted in retention of the null hypotheses. Although there was no statistically significant effect of the journal intervention on the parents’ assessed engagement and confidence, qualitative data from the survey and observations during the intervention suggested there were benefits from the intervention for some families. More research using larger samples, longer intervention time frames, and perhaps targeting specific academic behaviors is needed to thoroughly examine the effectiveness of journals or similar home-based interventions on parent engagement and confidence in supporting students’ achievement.

description: This White Paper provides a high-level perspective on RDM training for Portage. RDM developments in Canada have lagged behind some of the countries typically considered to be our peers, such as the United Kingdom and the United States. This was evident in our environmental scan of the different training activities being developed and offered. Some excellent international training modules are available to Canadian stakeholders but without Canadian-specific content. The Portage website provides an opportunity to prepare and disseminate materials rich in Canadian RDM content. RDM expertise already exists in Canada. However, this expertise remains largely siloed in specific disciplines and jurisdictions. Training resources need to be organized collaboratively across these divisions to capitalize on the knowledge and resources of these stakeholder communities. While our overview of RDM training is not exhaustive, it does provide a robust representation of the current landscape. It is also imperative that in building a foundation for RDM expertise, a national research data culture is also cultivated that represents the underlying principles and values of such expertise in Canada.

description: The purpose of this research was to explore the relationship between childhood sexual abuse and the adult woman's ability to cope with interpersonal conflict. Seventy women participated in the study. They were placed in one of two groups: sexually abused during childhood (SAC) or not abused during childhood (NAC). The subjects were recruited from several self-help groups and mental health facilities. The subjects completed inventories which measured coping strategies, problem solving abilities, attributional style, and assertion style and dating comfort. It was found that the SAC group members perceived less personal control than the NAC group when dealing with problem situations. The two groups also differed in their attributional styles for good and bad achievement events. The SAC members were more inclined to view negative events as internal, stable and global than were the NAC group members. For positive events, the NAC group viewed the events as more internal and global than the SAC group.

description: Despite the high-efficiency and low-cost prospect for perovskite solar cells, great concerns of lead toxicity and instability remain for this technology. Here, we report an encapsulation strategy for perovskite modules based on lead-adsorbing ionogel, which prevents lead leakage and withstand long-term stability tests. The ionogel layers integrated on both sides of modules enhance impact resistance. The self-healable ionogel can prevent water permeation into the perovskite layer and adsorb lead that might leak. The encapsulated devices pass the damp heat and thermal cycling accelerated stability tests according to International Electrotechnical Commission 61215 standard. The ionogel encapsulation reduces lead leakage to undetectable level after the hail-damaged module is soaked in water for 24 hours. Even being rolled over by a car followed by water soaking for 45 days, the ionogel encapsulation reduces lead leakage by three orders of magnitude. This work provides a strategy to simultaneously address lead leakage and stability for perovskite modules.

description: The defective bottom interfaces of perovskites and hole-transport layers (HTLs) limit the performance of p-i-n structure perovskite solar cells. We report that the addition of lead chelation molecules into HTLs can strongly interact with lead(II) ion (Pb2+), resulting in a reduced amorphous region in perovskites near HTLs and a passivated perovskite bottom surface. The minimodule with an aperture area of 26.9 square centimeters has a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 21.8% (stabilized at 21.1%) that is certified by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), which corresponds to a minimal small-cell efficiency of 24.6% (stabilized 24.1%) throughout the module area. Small-area cells and large-area minimodules with lead chelation molecules in HTLs had a light soaking stability of 3010 and 2130 hours, respectively, at an efficiency loss of 10% from the initial value under 1-sun illumination and open-circuit voltage conditions.

description: The excessive deposition of misfolded proteins such as amyloid-β (Aβ) protein is an aging event underlying several neurodegenerative diseases. Mounting evidence shows that the spreading of neuropathological burden has a strong association to the white matter tracts in the brain which can be measured using diffusion-weighted imaging and tractography technologies. Most of the previous studies analyze the dynamic progression of amyloid using cross-sectional data which is not robust to the heterogeneous Aβ dynamics across the population. In this regard, we propose a graph neural network-based learning framework to capture the disease-related dynamics by tracking the spreading of amyloid across brain networks from the subject-specific longitudinal PET images. To learn from limited (2 – 3 timestamps) and noisy longitudinal data, we restrict the space of amyloid propagation patterns to a latent heat diffusion model which is constrained by the anatomical connectivity of the brain. Our experiments show that restricting the dynamics to be a heat diffusion mechanism helps to train a robust deep neural network for predicting future time points and classifying Alzheimer’s disease brain.

description: Longitudinal studies of infants’ brains are essential for research and clinical detection of neurodevelopmental disorders. However, for infant brain MRI scans, effective deep learning-based segmentation frameworks exist only within small age intervals due to the large image intensity and contrast changes that take place in the early postnatal stages of development. However, using different segmentation frameworks or models at different age intervals within the same longitudinal data set would cause segmentation inconsistencies and age-specific biases. Thus, an age-agnostic segmentation model for infants’ brains is needed. In this paper, we present”Infant-SynthSeg”, an extension of the contrast-agnostic SynthSeg segmentation framework applicable to MRI data of infants at ages within the first year of life. Our work mainly focuses on extending learning strategies related to synthetic data generation and augmentation, with the aim of creating a method that employs training data capturing features unique to infants’ brains during this early-stage development. Comparison across different learning strategy settings, as well as a more-traditional contrast-aware deep learning model (nnU-net) are presented. Our experiments show that our trained Infant-SynthSeg models show consistently high segmentation performance on MRI scans of infant brains throughout the first year of life. Furthermore, as the model is trained on ground truth labels at different ages, even labels that are not present at certain ages (such as cerebellar white matter at 1 month) can be appropriately segmented via Infant-SynthSeg across the whole age range. Finally, while Infant-SynthSeg shows consistent segmentation performance across the first year of life, it is outperformed by age-specific deep learning models trained for a specific narrow age range.

description: L’expertise en GDR existe au Canada. Elle demeure toutefois souvent très isolée dans des vases clos en fonction des domaines ou des disciplines. Les ressources de formation doivent être développées de manière collaborative pour contrer ces divisions et tirer parti des connaissances et des ressources qui existent déjà. Bien que notre survol de la formation sur la GDR ne soit pas exhaustif, il donne une représentation juste de la situation actuelle. À travers ce processus qui vise à établir expertise solide en GDR au Canada, il est impératif de développer une culture nationale rattaché à la gestion des données de recherche qui appuie les principes sous-jacents et les valeurs d’une telle expertise au Canada.

description: A low defect density in metal halide perovskite single crystals is critical to achieve high performance optoelectronic devices. Here we show the reduction of defect density in perovskite single crystals grown by a ligand-assisted solution process with 3‐(decyldimethylammonio)‐propane‐sulfonate inner salt (DPSI) as an additive. DPSI ligands anchoring with lead ions on perovskite crystal surfaces not only suppress nucleation in solution, but also regulate the addition of proper ions to the growing surface, which greatly enhances the crystal quality. The grown CH3NH3PbI3 crystals show better crystallinity and a 23-fold smaller trap density of 7 × 1010 cm−3 than the optimized control crystals. The enhanced material properties result in significantly suppressed ion migration and superior X-ray detection sensitivity of CH3NH3PbI3 detectors of (2.6 ± 0.4) × 106 µC Gy−1air cm−2 for 60 kVp X-ray and the lowest detectable dose rate reaches (5.0 ± 0.7) nGy s−1, which enables reduced radiation dose to patients in medical X-ray diagnostics.
We are too poor to afford anything : Retail gentrification mapping report
Creators: name: Wallstam, Maria
name: Carnegie Community Action Project
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: This report details the findings of a survey of retail in the Downtown Eastside and Chinatown. Conducted in both English and Cantonese, its starting goal was to “identify retail that caters to the low-income community”. However, it was soon found that even “businesses that are more affordable and welcoming to low-income people do not really meet the needs of people on social assistance”. The report covers topics of gentrification, provincial welfare, the cost of items in a gentrifying neighbourhood, the displacement of low-income residents to zones of exclusion and presents a number of recommendations for addressing this growing issue.

description: Tree-adjoining grammar (TAG) and combinatory categorial grammar (CCG) are two well-established mildly context-sensitive grammar formalisms that are known to have the same expressive power on strings (i.e., generate the same class of string languages). It is demonstrated that their expressive power on trees also essentially coincides. In fact, CCG without lexicon entries for the empty string and only first-order rules of degree at most 2 are sufficient for its full expressive power.

title: The Effect of Depth Judgments on Mental Workload in Laparoscopy Measured by a Visual-Spatial Secondary Task

description: Performing laparoscopic surgery is more attentionally demanding than traditional surgery. One challenge results from the surgeon operating in 3D space while referencing a 2D display that has limited and distorted depth cues. The goal of the present study was to compare two versions of a secondary task for measuring the mental workload associated with laparoscopic depth and nondepth movements. Twenty six undergraduate students at Old Dominion University performed a laparoscopic threading task in three separate orientations: X plane, Y plane, and Z plane. The threading task was performed in single-task conditions and dual-task conditions where it was paired with a visual-spatial secondary task to measure workload. It was expected that workload would be highest when threading in the Z plane orientation, reflecting challenges for making depth judgments based on a 2D display. The primary task results showed that participants indeed had difficulty performing the threading task when depth judgments were required. The secondary task was sensitive to overall laparoscopic workload, but was not found to be sensitive to the specific differences in workload for threading orientation. There were also no performance differences between versions of the secondary task. The findings suggest that laparoscopic surgery is attentionally demanding and surgical training should emphasize practicing movements in the depth plane.

description: Clinical guideline documents reflect the evidence supporting clinical practice, but few recommendations in cardiovascular guidelines are supported by evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the highest level of evidence. Incentives for generating evidence from RCTs differ by topic of guideline recommendation, and it is uncertain whether evidence supporting guideline recommendations differs based on the topic of the recommendation. Methods: We abstracted recommendation statements from current ACC/AHA guideline documents (2008–2019). Two reviewers independently characterized each statement into categories based on its primary topic: pharmaceutical, device, non-invasive or minimally invasive therapeutic procedure, surgery, diagnostic invasive procedure or non-invasive imaging, laboratory, care strategies, health services or policy, history/physical examination, lifestyle or counseling. We determined the number and proportion of recommendations in each category characterized as level of evidence (LOE) A (supported by multiple RCTs), B (supported by a single RCT or observational data), and C (supported by expert opinion or limited data). Results: Of 2934 recommendations from 29 clinical guideline documents, 784 (26.7%) were primarily about pharmaceuticals, 503 (17.1%) diagnostic invasive procedure or non-invasive imaging, 366 (12.5%) devices, 349 (11.9%) care strategies, 274 (9.3%) surgery, 216 (7.4%) therapeutic procedures, 162 (5.5%) lifestyle interventions or counseling, 160 (5.5%) health services, care delivery, or policy, 83 (2.8%) laboratory, and 37 (1.3%) elements of the history and physical. Across all recommendations, 257 (8.8%) were characterized as LOE A, with considerable variability by topic. 25.9% of lifestyle/counseling recommendations, 16.9% of lab recommendations, and 14.7% of drug recommendations were classified as LOE A, but <8% of recommendations in all other categories, including 5.5% of device recommendations, 6.0% of therapeutic procedure recommendations, 2.6% of surgery recommendations, and 5.0% of health services or policy recommendations. Conclusion: Less than 10% of current ACC/AHA guideline recommendations are supported by high quality evidence from RCTs, with substantial variability by topic and multiple areas with very few recommendations supported by high-quality evidence. Development and implementation of inexpensive methods for generating a higher volume of RCT evidence to support clinical practice are needed, especially in areas where there are not strong incentives to conduct RCTs.

description: This study attempts to understand motivators and de-motivators that influence the decisions of software students to take up and sustain software testing careers across three different Asian countries, i.e., China, India, and Malaysia. The re-search question can be framed as How many software students across different Asian geographies are keen to take up testing careers, and what are the reasons for their choices? Towards an answer, we developed a cross-sectional but simple survey-based instrument. In this work, we investigated how software students perceived the software testing role. The results from China and India revealed that students are not very keen on taking up a software tester career, but the Malaysia students show a more positive attitude towards software testing. The study also pointed out the importance of considering software testing activities as a set of human-dependent tasks and emphasized the need for further re-search that examines critically individual assessments of software testers about software testing activities. This investigation can academics involved in software testing courses to understand the impacting factors on the motivation and de-motivators of their students, as well as to try convey positive view of testing as challenging and requires critical thinking and innovative ideas.

description: Background: Each year, nearly 300,000 women and 5 million fetuses or neonates die during childbirth or shortly thereafter, a burden concentrated disproportionately in low- and middle-income countries. Identifying women and their fetuses at risk for intrapartum-related morbidity and death could facilitate early intervention. Methods: The Limiting Adverse Birth Outcomes in Resource-Limited Settings (LABOR) Study is a multi-country, prospective, observational cohort designed to exhaustively document the course and outcomes of labor, delivery, and the immediate postpartum period in settings where adverse outcomes are frequent. The study is conducted at four hospitals across three countries in Ghana, India, and Zambia. We will enroll approximately 12,000 women at presentation to the hospital for delivery and follow them and their fetuses/newborns throughout their labor and delivery course, postpartum hospitalization, and up to 42 days thereafter. The co-primary outcomes are composites of maternal (death, hemorrhage, hypertensive disorders, infection) and fetal/neonatal adverse events (death, encephalopathy, sepsis) that may be attributed to the intrapartum period. The study collects extensive physiologic data through the use of physiologic sensors and employs medical scribes to document examination findings, diagnoses, medications, and other interventions in real time. Discussion: The goal of this research is to produce a large, sharable dataset that can be used to build statistical algorithms to prospectively stratify parturients according to their risk of adverse outcomes. We anticipate this research will inform the development of new tools to reduce peripartum morbidity and mortality in low-resource settings.

description: Regression analysis is a well known quantitative research method that primarily explores the relationship between one or more independent variables and a dependent variable. Conducting regression analysis manually on large datasets with multiple independent variables can be tedious. An automated system for regression analysis will be of great help for researchers as well as non-expert users. Thus, the objective of this research is to design and develop an automated curve fitting system. As outcome, a curve fitting system named "CurFi" was developed that uses linear regression models to fit a curve to a dataset and to find out the best fit model. The system facilitates to upload a dataset, split the dataset into training set and test set, select relevant features and label from the dataset; and the system will return the best fit linear regression model after training is completed. The developed tool would be a great resource for the users having limited technical knowledge who will also be able to find the best fit regression model for a dataset using the developed "CurFi" system.
