Multi-step validation of a deep learning-based system for the quantification of bowel preparation: a prospective, observational study

The Lancet: Digital Health, 2021
Summary: Background: Inadequate bowel preparation is associated with a decrease in adenoma detection rate (ADR). A deep learning-based bowel preparation assessment system based on the Boston bowel preparation scale (BBPS) has been previously established

Integrating microbial electrochemical technologies with anaerobic digestion to accelerate propionate degradation [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
The aim of this study is to evaluate the integration of microbial electrochemical technologies (MET) with anaerobic digestion (AD) to overcome AD limitations caused by propionate accumulation. The study focuses on understanding to what extent the inoculum impacts on the behaviour of the integrated systems (AD-MET) from the perspective of propionate ...

Mathematical Model of ingested glucose in Glucose-Insulin Regulation [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Here, we develop a mathematical model for glucose-insulin regulatory system. The model includes a new parameter which is the amount of ingested glucose. Ingested glucose is an external glucose source coming from digested food. We assume that the external glucose or ingested glucose decays exponentially with time.

Authenticated Append-only Skip Lists [PDF]

arXiv, 2003
In this work we describe, design and analyze the security of a tamper-evident, append-only data structure for maintaining secure data sequences in a loosely coupled distributed system where individual system components may be mutually distrustful. The resulting data structure, called an Authenticated Append-Only Skip List (AASL), allows its maintainers

Design Patterns which Facilitate Message Digest Collision Attacks on Blockchains [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Message digest algorithms are one of the underlying building blocks of blockchain platforms such as Ethereum. This paper analyses situations in which the message digest collision resistance property can be exploited by attackers. Two mitigations for possible attacks are described: longer message digest sizes make attacks more difficult; and, including ...
