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. …”

The ride sharing routing problem : an optimization algorithm by Lawrence, Lucas

“…The objective of the problem is to assign each drivers to fetch two passengers given the locations of drivers, passengers' pick-up points and their destinations. We then designed an algorithm and observed that it produces smaller costs solution in most of the randomly generated data with time complexity $O(n^2\log n)$ for real valued weighted graph and $O(n^2)$ for integer valued weighted graph improved from the previous $O(n^3)$.…”

The battle for Asia in crude oil markets: an easier road ahead for India? by Sen, A

“…Even though the drop in prices is unlikely to last (given the high cost on the supply side) and prices are likely to pick back up to at least the US$80–100 per barrel range in the coming years, India will remain in a privileged position compared to a few years ago, as the continued growth of US tight oil means producers from all around the world will still focus on Asia to sell their crude. …”
