Effects of electrode morphology on the performance of BPSH and PATS ionic polymer transducers by Akle, Barbar J.

“…The electromechanical coupling in ionomeric materials is due to the charge motion in the polymer backbone. Increasing the capacitance of the actuator increases the motion of the charges and the actuation performance of ionic polymer transducers has been shown to be strongly correlated with charge motion. …”

Relativistic quantum-speed limit for Gaussian systems and prospective experimental verification by Salman Sajad Wani (19274419)

“…Relativistic kinematics slow evolution in an amplitude- and squeezing-dependent way, increase both bounds, and introduce an <i>ϵ</i>^<em>2</em><i> t</i>^<em>2</em> phase drift that weakens timing sensitivity while modestly increasing the squeeze factor. …”

Effectiveness of Positron Emission Tomography for Predicting Chemotherapy Response in Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases by Glazer, Evan

“…We hypothesized that PET uptake levels were artificially decreased after chemotherapy. That is, lesions that appeared to be nonmalignant were actually viable malignant lesions.…”

Optimizing pre-copy live virtual machine migration in cloud computing using machine learning-based prediction model by Raseena M. Haris (17773470)

“…Transferring these dirty pages during pre-copy migration prolongs the overall migration time. If there are large numbers of remaining memory pages after a predefined iteration of page transfer, the stop-and-copy phase is initiated, which significantly increases downtime and negatively impacts service availability. …”

Patterns of Rectal Temperature and Shipping Fever Incidence in Horses Transported Over Long-Distances by Yousuke Maeda (18174976)

“…It has been shown that the incidence of transport-related pyrexia in horses increases with travel time and distance, however, this incidence rate has been expressed as the cumulative number of horses showing pyrexia with the length of travel time during road transport (cumulative percentage), which does not accurately reflect the actual temperature fluctuations and their patterns in relation to shipping fever. …”

Systematic analysis of software development in cloud computing perceptions by Habib Ullah Khan (12024579)

“…Cloud-based software services are becoming increasingly popular, as observed by their widespread use. …”

GPS spoofing detection via crowd-sourced information for connected vehicles by Gabriele Oligeri (14151426)

“…<p>Modern vehicular systems rely on the Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to provide accurate and timely services. However, the GPS has been proved to be characterized by an intrinsic insecure design, thus being subject to several security attacks. …”

Hyperspectral-physiological based predictive model for transpiration in greenhouses under CO₂ enrichment by Ikhlas Ghiat (16932564)

“…The XGBoost model outperformed the DNN and SVR models with higher R² of 0.62 – 7.53%, lower RMSE and MAE values of 9.74 – 46.19 mmol/m².s and 13.74 – 39.08 mmol/m².s respectively with microclimate, physiological and hyperspectral based vegetation index inputs. Moreover, the time series prediction with different time steps improved the XGBoost model, achieving an R² of up to 99.0%. …”

Modeling the influence of daily temperature and precipitation extreme indices on vegetation dynamics in Katsina State using statistical downscaling model (SDM) by Mohammad Hadi Ahmad (17632248)

“…All the scenarios present increasing minimum and maximum temperatures and decreasing precipitation, except for RCP8.5, which predicted a more adverse trend. …”

Outcomes of drain versus no drain in total knee arthroplasty: a retrospective cohort study by Anas Albasha (17765964)

“…Moreover, tranexamic acid (TXA) use (n = 106) in surgery reduced hospital stays, tourniquet time, drain output, and increased pre- and postoperative haemoglobin and hematocrit levels compared to no TXA group (n = 156) (p < 0.05, z-score reported).…”

Latest Developments in Adapting Deep Learning for Assessing TAVR Procedures and Outcomes by Anas M. Tahir (16870077)

Cumulative Incidence of Venous Thromboembolic Events In-Hospital, and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 Months After Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery: Systematic Review of 87 Studies and Meta-anal... by Walid El Ansari (93732)

“…This study is the first to generate detailed estimates of the incidence and patterns of VTE after MBS over time. The incidence of VTE after MBS is low. Improved estimates and time variations of VTE require longer-term designs, non-aggregated reporting of characteristics, and must consider many factors and the use of data registries. …”
