Background Carotid triangle lymph nodes (CAT LN) represent a frequently overlooked region during lateral neck dissection (LND) in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and their metastatic characteristics remain poorly defined. This study aimed to comprehensively evalu…
Background The current management of chronic heart failure (CHF) in older patients primarily focuses on traditional cardiovascular risk factors, with inadequate consideration of chronic infections such as Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) . This study aimed to examine whether H. py…
Tooth image segmentation is a critical task in medical image analysis, where precise segmentation outcomes are essential for oral diagnosis and treatment planning. Dental X-ray images often present challenges such as boundary blurring, tooth misalignment, and complex anatomical v…
This paper presents an analytical framework for evaluating the outage probability of ambient Internet of Things (A-IoT) device classes communicating directly with a base station. Device 1 is a passive backscatter device with minimal storage, while Device 2 is equipped with a supe…
The use of LLMs in software development has become increasingly widespread on tasks such as code generation and summarization. Reports from large technology companies showed that around 20% to 30% of their code are generated by LLMs. However, there remains skepticism about the pr…
Scalable reinforcement learning has popularized high-throughput sampling architectures, which significantly compresses the training time for off-policy methods in robotic locomotion. However, the rapid increase of data volume and update frequency undermines the stability of value…
