Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) is limited by cutaneous discomfort caused by unavoidable activation of superficial sensory nerves during current delivery to deep targets. While psychophysical studies have empirically identified waveforms that reduce skin sensation, ex…
Sampling from multimodal distributions is a longstanding challenge for classical local Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. A popular remedy is to introduce a sequence of intermediate distributions that interpolate between the target and a simpler reference. The classical cho…
Rolling-shutter cameras introduce characteristic distortions when imaging fast moving objects, and these effects are typically treated as artifacts to be corrected. In this work, we instead leverage rolling-shutter distortions as a valuable source of temporal information to estim…
Knowledge-based Visual Question Answering (KB-VQA) requires models to combine image understanding with external knowledge. Most prior methods use a fixed retrieve-then-generate pipeline with a pre-selected retriever and a static top-k setting, which is not adaptive during reasoni…
Abstract Commonly used screening tests for primary aldosteronism (PA) provide suboptimal diagnostic accuracy, particularly with antihypertensive medication use. This study utilized three datasets totaling 1380 patients with and without PA to develop machine learning models for sc…
