Contouring Signed Distance Fields by Approximating Gradients
Abstract Signed distance fields are often represented by discrete samples (e.g., on a grid). Recovering the contour implicitly represented by the distance samples requires an approximation algorithm. Several recent approaches have shown that exploiting the information carried in each distance sample by explicitly constructing a surface point gives ...

Abstract Conventional price indexes partially address product heterogeneity. This paper considers the variety and quality of products in each market, the combination of region and year, and constructs panel price indexes using household scanner data on non‐alcoholic beverages in urban China.

Summary Background and objectives Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic autoimmune mucosal disease with malignant potential and limited treatment options. This study evaluated the long‐term efficacy and safety of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) therapy in therapy‐refractory OLP and introduced the novel Lichen Planus Severity Score (LPSS).

Exploring the Challenges and Legal Implications of Secondary Use of Health Data in South Africa
ABSTRACT The sharing of health data advances knowledge, fosters innovation, and promotes evidence‐based decision‐making. This practice involves using existing data for collaborative research or for purposes other than those for which it was originally collected.

ABSTRACT Background Modern higher education requires a redefinition of pedagogical objectives to meet the evolving cognitive and perceptual demands of contemporary students. One such emerging objective is the cultivation of visual perceptions. Generational differences suggest that current students possess distinct cognitive profiles and learning ...

Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.
