Ground-state phase diagram of the quantum Rabi model [PDF]

Phys. Rev. A 92, 053823 (2015), 2015
The Rabi model plays a fundamental role in understanding light-matter interaction. It reduces to the Jaynes-Cummings model via the rotating-wave approximation, which is applicable only to the cases of near resonance and weak coupling. However, recent experimental breakthroughs in upgrading light-matter coupling order require understanding the physics ...

Maternal body mass index, gestational weight gain, and the risk of overweight and obesity across childhood: An individual participant data meta-analysis

PLoS Medicine, 2019
Background Maternal obesity and excessive gestational weight gain may have persistent effects on offspring fat development. However, it remains unclear whether these effects differ by severity of obesity, and whether these effects are restricted to the ...

Crowdsourcing Health Labels: Inferring Body Weight from Profile Pictures [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
To use social media for health-related analysis, one key step is the detection of health-related labels for users. But unlike transient conditions like flu, social media users are less vocal about chronic conditions such as obesity, as users might not tweet "I'm still overweight". As, however, obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, heart disease,
