ANTASID: A Novel Temporal Adjustment to Shannon’s Index of Difficulty for Quantifying the Perceived Difficulty of Uncontrolled Pointing Tasks

IEEE Access, 2022
Shannon’s Index of Difficulty ( $ID$ ), reputable for quantifying the perceived difficulty of pointing tasks as a logarithmic relationship between movement-amplitude ( $A$ ) and target-width ( $W$ ), is used for modeling the corresponding observed

Measuring the Difficulty of Distance-Based Indexing [PDF]

, 2005
Data structures for similarity search are commonly evaluated on data in vector spaces, but distance-based data structures are also applicable to non-vector spaces with no natural concept of dimensionality. The intrinsic dimensionality statistic of Chavez and Navarro provides a way to compare the performance of similarity indexing and search algorithms ...

Searching the beginning of the climb to get the most reliable difficulty index [PDF]

, 2019
The climb is the steep fragment of the road. In road cycling, climbs should be categorized by the effort necessary to overcome it. Two values have the greatest influence on a difficulty of the climb: its average slope (rise/run ratio) and length.

Impact of Radiation Therapy on Physical and Psychosocial Health of Adolescents and Young Adults: A Joint Report From the Children's Oncology Group AYA and Radiation Oncology Committees

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.
