Automated Strength-Interval Curve Generation Using Actors
Computer Methods and Programs in BiomedicineStrength-interval (SI) curves are used by physiologists to quantify the response of excitable tissue as a function of the strength and timing of an electrical stimulus. In the context of cardiac electrophysiology, SI curves characterize the refractoriness of cardiac tissue as a function of inter-stimulus interval length.

On generalized interval orders [PDF]
International Mathematical Forum, 2007 In this paper, we introduce the notion of generalized interval order (GIO) which extends the notion of interval order in non-transitive binary relations. This allow us to extend the classical representation theorem of Fishburn in [5]. We also provide sufficient conditions which ensure the existence of the Generalized Optimal Choice Set (GOCS) of GIOs ...

Using Proper Mean Generation Intervals in Modeling of COVID-19
Frontiers in Public Health, 2021 In susceptible–exposed–infectious–recovered (SEIR) epidemic models, with the exponentially distributed duration of exposed/infectious statuses, the mean generation interval (GI, time lag between infections of a primary case and its secondary case) equals
