Apocryphal Joyce: fuga per canonem by Holtkamp, G

“…This phrase, from his notes for Ulysses, is especially apt for Joyce given his early connection of the writer as craftsman and apostate with Daedalus, the mythic figure whose wings symbolized for Joyce the liberated intellect of the artist.…”

Wearable bio-adhesive metal detector array (BioMDA) for spinal implants

“…Accordingly, herein, we report on the development and engineering of a bio-adhesive metal detector array (BioMDA), a potential wearable solution for real-time, non-invasive positional analyses of osseous implants within the spine. The electromagnetic coupling mechanism and intimate interfacial adhesion enable the precise sensing of the metallic implants position without the use of radiation. …”

Deep learning approach to cervical segmentation from routine CT images by Duan, Yiming

“…To address the sequential and location-dependent nature of bone segmen tation information, the dissertation proposes a pre-training model for location information, and combines 2.5D image input and labeled multi-channel coding to semantically segment 3D cervical spine CT images. This method can accu rately extract the information of bone joint location of slices and incorporate it into image features in the form of channels, which can improve the accuracy of multiple bone joint segmentation and classification. …”

Harnessing Instability Mechanisms in Airfoil Flow for Data-Driven Forecasting of Extreme Events by Barthel, Benedikt, Sapsis, Themistoklis P.

“…These extreme excursions may be seen as prototypical of the kind of unsteady and intermittent dynamics relevant to the flow around airfoils and wings in a variety of real-world applications. Here we investigate the instability mechanisms at the heart of these extreme events, and how they may be harnessed for efficient data-driven forecasting. …”
