A model of cardiac tissue as a conductive system with interacting pacemakers and refractory time [PDF]
A model of the heart tissue as a conductive system with two interacting pacemakers and a refractory time, is proposed. In the parametric space of the model the phase locking areas are investigated in detail. Obtained results allow us to predict the behaviour of excitable systems with two pacemakers depending on the type and intensity of their ...

Limit Cycle Oscillations in Pacemaker Cells [PDF]
In recent decades, several mathematical models describing the pacemaker activity of the rabbit sinoatrial node have been developed. We demonstrate that it is not possible to establish the existence, uniqueness, and stability of a limit cycle oscillation in those models. Instead we observe an infinite number of limit cycles.

Pacemaker: Intermediate Teacher Knowledge Distillation For On-The-Fly Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
There is a need for an on-the-fly computational process with very low performance system such as system-on-chip (SoC) and embedded device etc. This paper presents pacemaker knowledge distillation as intermediate ensemble teacher to use convolutional neural network in these systems. For on-the-fly system, we consider student model using 1xN shape on-the-

Understanding the Mechanism of Cardiotoxicity Induced by Nanomaterials: A Comprehensive Review
This review provides a bibliometric analysis for understanding the study of nanotoxicity on cardiovascular health. It begins by outlining the pathways through which nanomaterials enter the cardiovascular system, followed by a summary of the mechanisms underlying nanomaterial‐induced cardiotoxicity.

Show, Don't Tell: Learning Reward Machines from Demonstrations for Reinforcement Learning-Based Cardiac Pacemaker Synthesis [PDF]
An (artificial cardiac) pacemaker is an implantable electronic device that sends electrical impulses to the heart to regulate the heartbeat. As the number of pacemaker users continues to rise, so does the demand for features with additional sensors, adaptability, and improved battery performance.

Global Labour Governance by Numbers: A Comparison of the ILO and OECD
ABSTRACT The emergence of governance by numbers (GBN) has seen the increasing use of metrics to influence government and corporate behaviour, but its uptake varies significantly across international organisations. This study examines the adoption of GBN in global labour governance at the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the Organisation for ...

The Vestibular Implant Input Interacts with Residual Natural Function
ObjectivePatients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BV) can still have residual “natural” function. This might interact with “artificial” vestibular implant input (VI-input). When fluctuating, it could lead to vertigo attacks.
