Machine Learning‐Based Risk‐Adjusted CUSUM Control Chart for Monitoring Readmission Rate Following PTBD Catheter Placement

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) catheter placement is known to have a high readmission rate. This work focuses on monitoring the change in readmission rate after a new clinical paradigm for post‐procedural care is implemented for the PTBD procedures.

Risk Times in Mission‐Oriented Systems

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article assesses risk times in mission‐oriented systems with high safety standards. We examine critical times under two safety policies. The first requires that the system's reliability function, known the first failure of the components, must exceed a reliability level throughout the mission.

Why Autonomous Vehicles Are Not Ready Yet: A Multi‐Disciplinary Review of Problems, Attempted Solutions, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Personal autonomous vehicles can sense their surrounding environment, plan their route, and drive with little or no involvement of human drivers. Despite the latest technological advancements and the hopeful announcements made by leading entrepreneurs, to date no personal vehicle is approved for road circulation in a “fully” or “semi ...

Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.
