New Medical Schools, Access to Physicians, and Health Outcomes: Evidence From Japan
ABSTRACT We analyse the impact of the construction of medical schools and associated university hospitals in Japan during the 1970s, which was primarily driven by ‘One Prefecture, One Medical School Policy’ (OPOMS). We find that the number of physicians increased significantly in prefectures where a medical school was built, and this effect persisted ...

Schematic depicting corrosion layer formation and changes in stainless steel exposed to Solar Salt at 600°C for 1000 h under different atmospheres: (a) N2 accelerates salt decomposition, producing nitrite and oxide ions, causing severe corrosion. (b) Adding O2 reduces nitrite ions formation, resulting in less corrosion than N2 alone.

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming synthetic chemistry from task‐specific predictors into integrated platforms that unify retrosynthesis, reaction optimization, and closed‐loop robotic automation. This review highlights how AI‐assisted planning and robotic execution shorten cycle times, reduce step counts, and improve route ...

Multi‐Agent Reinforcement Learning for Joint Police Patrol and Dispatch
ABSTRACT Police patrol units need to split their time between performing preventive patrol and being dispatched to serve emergency incidents. In the existing literature, patrol and dispatch decisions are often studied separately. We consider joint optimization of these two decisions to improve police operations efficiency and reduce response time to ...
