Methodological, political and legal issues in the assessment of the effects of nanotechnology on human health by Schulte, Paul A, Riediker, Michael, Fatkhutdinova, Liliya, Bergamaschi, Enrico, Canu, Irina Guseva

“…Forming ENM worker cohorts from a combination of smaller cohorts and overcoming selection bias are also challenges. National or international registries for monitoring the exposures and health of ENM workers would be helpful for epidemiological studies, but the creation of such a registry and ENM worker cohorts will require political support and dedicated funding at the national and international levels. …”

The human right to health & its intersection with multiculturalism by Muyskens, Kathryn Lynn

“…In my thesis, I take the view that health is a universal good, but also a culturally laden concept, and thus there is a need to articulate how political bodies can respect the human right to health without perpetuating ethnocentric bias. This new understanding of health and healthcare will inevitably influence how the human right to health will be understood, and thus the later chapters of this thesis are devoted to exploring how cultural variations in health and medicine play out in domestic and international policy. …”

Single-input polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography through a catheter by Jones, Georgia L., Xiong, Qiaozhou, Liu, Xinyu, Bouma, Brett E., Villiger, Martin

“…We validate our method through comparison with conventional dual-input state measurements and find a mean cumulative retardance error of 13.2deg without observable bias. The 95% limit of agreement between depth-resolved birefringence is 2.80 · 10-4, which is less than the agreement between two repeat pullbacks of conventional PS-OCT (3.14 · 10-4), indicating that the two methods can be used interchangeably. …”

Ultrasound-guided needle tracking with deep learning: a novel approach with photoacoustic ground truth by Hui, Xie, Rajendran, Praveenbalaji, Ling, Tong, Dai, Xianjin, Xing, Lei, Pramanik, Manojit

“…As a powerful tool in image processing, deep learning has shown promise for enhancing needle visibility in US images, although its dependence on manual annotation or simulated data as ground truth can lead to potential bias or difficulties in generalizing to real US images. …”

All it takes is empathy: how virtual reality perspective-taking influences intergroup attitudes and stereotypes by Chen, Vivian Hsueh-Hua, Ibasco, Gabrielle C.

“…Research in the past decade has demonstrated the potential of virtual reality perspective-taking (VRPT) to reduce bias against salient outgroups. In the perspective-taking literature, both affective and cognitive mechanisms have been theorized and identified as plausible pathways to prejudice reduction. …”

Leveraging imperfect restoration for data availability attack by Huang, Yi, Styborski, Jeremy, Lyu, Mingzhi, Wang, Fan, Kong, Adams Wai Kin

“…In this paper, we conduct a theoretical analysis of CUDA, uncovering the sub-optimal gradients it introduces and elucidating the strategy it employs to induce class-wise bias for data poisoning. Building on this, we propose a novel poisoning method named Imperfect Restoration Poisoning (IRP), aiming to preserve high image quality while achieving strong poisoning effects. …”

“…We find a typical sample variance of 10-20percnt for 0.3 and 0.5 sq. deg. sub-regions at S1.4 ≤ 200 μJy, which increases at brighter flux densities, given the lower source density and expected higher galaxy bias for these sources.…”
