‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...

Enhanced hierarchical model of object recognition based on a novel patch selection method in salient regions

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2015
The biologically inspired hierarchical model for object recognition, Hierarchical Model and X (HMAX), has attracted considerable attention in recent years. HMAX is robust (i.e.

Serial, parallel and hierarchical decision making in primates

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The study of decision-making has mainly focused on isolated decisions where choices are associated with motor actions. However, problem-solving often involves considering a hierarchy of sub-decisions. In a recent study (Lorteije et al. 2015), we reported

Lattice Boltzmann model with hierarchical interactions

open access: yes, 2004
We present a numerical study of the dynamics of a non-ideal fluid subject to a density-dependent pseudo-potential characterized by a hierarchy of nested attractive and repulsive interactions. It is shown that above a critical threshold of the interaction

Assessing Cognitive Functioning in Children With Brain Tumors: Interaction of Neighborhood Social Determinants of Health and Neurological Risk

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study investigated how neighborhood‐level social determinants of health (SDOH), including redlining and neurological risk, interact to influence cognitive outcomes in children treated for brain tumors (CTBT). Methods A retrospective chart review of 161 CTBT aged 5–17 was conducted.

High-accuracy full-coverage PM2.5 retrieval from 2014 to 2023 over China based on satellite remote sensing and hierarchical deep learning model

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth
Obtaining precise ground-level fine particulate matter (PM2.5) information is significant for human health. Spatial PM2.5 maps can be obtained by remote sensing technology, but considerable uncertainty exists when suffering from high pollution with ...

Scene text detection method based on the hierarchical model

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2015
As an important step in text‐based information extraction systems, scene text detection has become a popular subject of research in recent years. In this study, the authors present a novel approach to robustly detect texts which are variable in scales ...

A hybrid gravity and route choice model to assess vector traffic in large-scale road networks [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
Human traffic along roads can be a major vector for infectious diseases and invasive species. Though most road traffic is local, a small number of long-distance trips can suffice to move an invasion or disease front forward.

Hierarchical Species Sampling Models [PDF]

open access: yesBayesian Analysis, 2020
This paper introduces a general class of hierarchical nonparametric prior distributions. The random probability measures are constructed by a hierarchy of generalized species sampling processes with possibly non-diffuse base measures. The proposed framework provides a general probabilistic foundation for hierarchical random measures with either atomic ...
