Labor Induction failure prediction using Gabor filterbanks and Center Symmetric Local Binary Patterns [PDF]
, 2018 Labor induction is defined as the artificial stimulation of uterine contractions aimed to induce vaginal birth. Occurring in about 20% of pregnancies labor induction has become one the most commonly practiced procedures in obstetrics.

Migrant Laborer's Optimization Mechanism Under Employment Permit System(EPS): Introducing and Analyzing 'Skill-Relevance-Self Selection' Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Migrant laborers subject to ROK's Employment Permit System(EPS) must strike a balance between host country's high wage and 'Depreciation of skill-relevance entailed by immigration', whilst taking account of the 'migration costs'. This study modelizes the optimization mechanism of migrant workers and the firms hiring them -- then induces the solution of

Intranational Skill-relevance Model of the Immigrant's Self-selection: Further Evidence of the Stylized Fact from the E-9 Employment Permit System (EPS) [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This study expands upon the foundation of 'Skill-Relevance-Self Selection' model on labor immigration, introduced by our previous study (Lee, Lim, & Cho, 2022). In detail, we seek an empirical confirmation of the model by providing evidence of the attained -- however, yet to be tested -- stylized fact: 'as the discount of intranational skill-relevance ...

PUFFIN: A Path-Unifying Feed-Forward Interfaced Network for Vapor Pressure Prediction [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Accurately predicting vapor pressure is vital for various industrial and environmental applications. However, obtaining accurate measurements for all compounds of interest is not possible due to the resource and labor intensity of experiments. The demand for resources and labor further multiplies when a temperature-dependent relationship for predicting

Symbiotic Cell Differentiation and Cooperative Growth in Multicellular Aggregates [PDF]
PLoS Comput Biol 12(10): e1005042, 2015 As cells grow and divide under a given environment, they become crowded and resources are limited, as seen in bacterial biofilms and multicellular aggregates. These cells often show strong interactions through exchanging chemicals, as in quorum sensing, to achieve mutualism.

Ontology-Based Skill Description Learning for Flexible Production Systems [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The increasing importance of resource-efficient production entails that manufacturing companies have to create a more dynamic production environment, with flexible manufacturing machines and processes. To fully utilize this potential of dynamic manufacturing through automatic production planning, formal skill descriptions of the machines are essential.
