Artificial intelligence for adaptive neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects nearly one third of people with epilepsy and is associated with substantial cognitive, psychiatric, and mortality burdens. For patients who are not candidates for resection or laser interstitial thermal therapy, neuromodulation therapies such as vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and ...

Material Actors in Remote Interpreting: Practical Applications of Actor–Network Theory (ANT)

Integrated Journal for Research in Arts and Humanities
This study, based on Actor–Network Theory (ANT), explores the mechanisms through which material actors operate in remote interpreting. The research finds that material actors—such as technological devices, environmental factors, and network platforms—play a crucial role in remote interpreting, not only affecting the accuracy and fluency of ...
