The Effect of Closed‐Loop Auditory Stimulation on Memory Consolidation and Sleep Physiology in an Ecological Setting

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Slow wave sleep plays a crucial role in overnight memory consolidation, with slow oscillations serving as a critical mechanism. Recent studies have identified closed‐loop auditory stimulation as an effective method to enhance slow oscillatory activity during slow wave sleep, thereby facilitating memory consolidation.

Spatio-Temporal Sentiment Hotspot Detection Using Geotagged Photos

open access: yes, 2016
We perform spatio-temporal analysis of public sentiment using geotagged photo collections. We develop a deep learning-based classifier that predicts the emotion conveyed by an image. This allows us to associate sentiment with place.

Optimal timing of precut sphincterotomy to prevent post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis in difficult biliary cannulation: A retrospective study

open access: yesDEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives Precut sphincterotomy is often performed when bile duct cannulation is difficult; however, the former has a higher risk of complications than conventional methods. Early precut reduces the risk of post‐endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP).
