Individual Mobility Prediction in Mass Transit Systems Using Smart Card Data: An Interpretable Activity-Based Hidden Markov Approach by Mo, Baichuan, Zhao, Zhan, Koutsopoulos, Haris N, Zhao, Jinhua

“…Based on a case study of Hong Kong’s metro system, we show that the proposed model can achieve similar prediction performance as the state-of-the-art long short-term memory (LSTM) model. Unlike LSTM, the proposed IOHMM approach can also be used to analyze hidden activity patterns, which provides meaningful behavioral interpretation for why an individual makes a certain trip. …”

Empirical estimation of metal powder bed fusion technological improvement rate by Alves de Campos, António, Torres Ferreira, Bruna, Gonçalves, Afonso, Leite, Marco, Ribeiro, Inês, L. Magee, Christopher, Henriques, Elsa

“…This study empirically estimates the technological improvement rate (TIR) of metal powder bed fusion (PBF) technology, widely used in aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. PBF's continuous long-term adoption growth is driven by its ability to enhance manufacturing efficiency in terms of time and raw material use, as well as its capability to produce high-quality, high-strength, complex-shaped parts. …”

An implantable piezoelectric ultrasound stimulator (ImPULS) for deep brain activation by Hou, Jason F, Nayeem, Md Osman Goni, Caplan, Kian A, Ruesch, Evan A, Caban-Murillo, Albit, Criado-Hidalgo, Ernesto, Ornellas, Sarah B, Williams, Brandon, Pearce, Ayeilla A, Dagdeviren, Huseyin E, Surets, Michelle, White, John A, Shapiro, Mikhail G, Wang, Fan, Ramirez, Steve, Dagdeviren, Canan

“…The absence of electrochemically active elements poses a new strategy for achieving long-term stability. We demonstrated that ImPULS can i) excite neurons in a mouse hippocampal slice ex vivo, ii) activate cells in the hippocampus of an anesthetized mouse to induce expression of activity-dependent gene c-Fos, and iii) stimulate dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta to elicit time-locked modulation of nigrostriatal dopamine release. …”
