cuFFS: A GPU-accelerated code for Fast Faraday Rotation Measure Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Rotation measure (RM) synthesis is a widely used polarization processing algorithm for reconstructing polarized structures along the line of sight. Performing RM synthesis on large datasets produced by telescopes like LOFAR can be computationally intensive as the computational cost is proportional to the product of the number of input frequency ...

Underestimation of systolic pressure in cuff-based blood pressure measurement [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
High blood pressure (hypertension) is the number one risk factor for premature death. Hypertension is asymptomatic, so blood pressure must be regularly monitored to diagnose it. In auscultatory blood pressure measurement, a patient's systolic (maximum) and diastolic (minimum) blood pressure are inferred from the pressure in an inflatable cuff wrapped ...

One size does not fit all: universal cuff overestimates oscillometric blood pressure in persons with large arm circumference

open access: yesBlood Pressure
Objective Some brachial cuffs for oscillometric blood pressure (BP) measurement are claimed to cover a wide range of upper-arm circumferences; however, their validation is rarely conducted.

Capacity of the Trapdoor Channel with Feedback [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
We establish that the feedback capacity of the trapdoor channel is the logarithm of the golden ratio and provide a simple communication scheme that achieves capacity. As part of the analysis, we formulate a class of dynamic programs that characterize capacities of unifilar finite-state channels.

Endotracheal Cuff Pressure in Different Positions in Patients Posted for Surgery under General Anaesthesia: An Observational Study

open access: yesArchives of Anesthesia and Critical Care
Background: The ideal endotracheal tube cuff pressure to prevent aspiration is 20-30cmH2O. Lower pressures will result in aspiration and high pressures will lead to tracheal mucosal injuries.

State Information in Bayesian Games [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
Two-player zero-sum repeated games are well understood. Computing the value of such a game is straightforward. Additionally, if the payoffs are dependent on a random state of the game known to one, both, or neither of the players, the resulting value of the game has been analyzed under the framework of Bayesian games.
