Damage Indicators for Structural Monitoring of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer-Strengthened Concrete Structures Based on Manifold Invariance Defined on Latent Space of Deep Autoencoders

Applied Sciences
Deep learning approaches based on autoencoders have been widely used for structural monitoring. Traditional approaches of autoencoders based on reconstruction errors involve limitations, since they do not exploit their hierarchical nature, and only ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...
