A key research area in autonomous driving is how to model the driver’s decision-making behavior, due to the fact it is significant for a self-driving vehicles considering their traffic safety and efficiency. However, the uncertain characteristics of vehicle and pedestrian trajectories affect urban roads, which poses severe challenges to the…[Read more]

Comparable results were obtained when using the ground truth and FASC-estimated ACS maps in term of inclusion detectability and estimation accuracy, with averaged fractional error below 2.8 dB in both phantoms. Conversely, the use of the homogeneous ACS map resulted in higher levels of fractional error (>10 dB), which demonstrates the importance…[Read more]

A hallmark feature of speech motor control is its ability to learn to anticipate and compensate for persistent feedback alterations, a process referred to as sensorimotor adaptation. Because this process involves adjusting articulation to counter the perceived effects of altering acoustic feedback, there are a number of factors that affect it,…[Read more]

When an infection is suspected, samples should be immediately sent for microbial culture. Timely treatment on the basis of drug sensitivity test results can prevent further complications.

Pediatric procedural sedation (PPS) is often performed outside of the operating room, and by various sub-specialty providers. There is no consistency in how…[Read more]

27, 95% CI, 2.81-3.74). The ASMR-ASIR ratio of EC was higher in developing countries than in developed countries. This ratio showed a decreasing trend at the national level over the past three decades.

EC incidence has ubiquitously increased worldwide. EC mortality has decreased at the global level but increased in many countries. More…[Read more]
