Long‐term quality of life in patients with bladder cancer following radical cystectomy
Objectives To investigate changes in quality of life (QoL) up to 8 years after radical cystectomy (RC) and compare QoL after RC with a gender‐ and age‐matched Dutch normative population. Furthermore, we aimed to identify patient characteristics associated with QoL and QoL trajectories after RC.

Abstract Cognitive diagnostic models (CDMs) have become essential tools for providing fine‐grained information about individuals' mastery of cognitive skills. While prior reviews have emphasized statistical foundations and deep learning‐based developments, this article focuses on recent methodological innovations designed to address persistent ...

Background To examine whether positive self‐evaluation and contextual variables—such as those created by family, peers and schools—serve as promotive factors or protective factors in the context of adversity. Methods Data were drawn from two waves of the youth survey of a population‐representative cohort in Hong Kong.

MultiFun-DAG: Multivariate Functional Directed Acyclic Graph [PDF]
Directed Acyclic Graphical (DAG) models efficiently formulate causal relationships in complex systems. Traditional DAGs assume nodes to be scalar variables, characterizing complex systems under a facile and oversimplified form.

Encoding Occupancy in Memory Location for Efficient and Compact High‐Resolution Voxel Structures
We encode information about geometric structure into the pointers of a sparse voxel directed acyclic graph (SVDAG). Each pointer carries information about the structure of the node it points to. Our encoding improves ray tracing performance and reduces model size in memory.
